Pamela's Ranch was a wonderful spot for our little family to gather, rest and recuperate after a stressful few months. The house was spotless, beds comfortable and kitchen well appointed for all the baking and cooking we did. It was cool on the hot days and we enjoyed sitting together in the lovely yard outside for coffee in the mornings and drinks in the evenings. The house layout was spacious and gave privacy/quiet to each person as they wanted to read, sleep, work, use the (fast) internet, etc.. There is a great, quiet washer and dryer setup, and dishwasher. The location was very accessible to L.A., beaches, local grocery stores, hikes and movies - which were all things we did. Pam was responsive to any questions we had and we didn't really need anything, but she was always available by phone. We would all return to Pamela's Ranch in a heartbeat for a soothing getaway or if we need to be in L.A. again. Thank you very much!
