We rented Kevin and Susan's cottage for a brief work trip. They are incredibly nice and cool- the cottage is beautiful and comfortable with everything you need. Its location is perfect to spend a day in Venice or go up to Malibu, and very easy for us since we had to be mostly in Santa Monica. Our plans changed a bit due to my getting sick, and Kevin and Susan were also very accommodating of our moved around schedule. I highly suggest staying at their lovely place and we want to go back and stay for a real vacation!
