My family spent Labor Day weekend at Susan's house (we were there to visit relatives in Long Beach), and it worked very well for us. The pool and outdoor space was great for my kids aged 7 and 9. Even though the street is busy, the house and backyard felt quiet and very private. We walked to a great restaurant (Roe) as well as kayak rentals. Kayaking through the canal was very charming! I would stay at Susan's again if I come to town.
