Before I booked anything on Catalina Island, I checked out all the reviews. Jeanie's place had the best reviews by far, and it was everything that previous reviewers had said it was. Jeanie kept in contact with us and was there in her golf cart to meet us at the boat to take us and our bags to her property. The property is centrally located, and it is in walkable distance to the entire town of Avalon. We felt safe at all times.
As other reviewers have said, the kitchen was well-stocked with snacks, bottled water, orange juice, and all the dishes and utensils that you need. There is also a coffee maker, toaster, and microwave. We really appreciated the extra-mile touch with a birthday cake in the refrigerator because it is my birthday month! :-)
The bathroom had plenty of clean towels and wash cloths, hair dryer, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. Best of all, it was clean!
There was plenty of space for two people, and there is room on the sofa for sleeping if you need it.
Bring your walking shoes to Avalon because you can walk just about anywhere, and the Shelton's place is very central. You can also rent a golf cart, which was really fun when we explored the tops of the hills looking down to the Pacific Ocean.
When it was time for checkout, we left our bags in the room, and Jeanie met us down at the boat with our bags when it was time to board. There is a place at the dock to store your bags, but we really appreciated yet another "extra mile" touch.
We highly recommend this property!
