Julies place was very clean, and well appointed and very comfortable. 10 mins drive to the Domain and 8 mins drive to Walnut Creek Park, which was the best dog park in the world!!! Lots of trails and rivers and dogs are allowed completely off leash which was great. We had our dogs with us so we were there each day. The Domain area restaurants are also dog friendly. Dogs welcome on most patios. Great fenced yard on the house with door from the living room to let the dogs out. Did feel that the house was in less desirable neighbourhood, as it was the last house on the street with many auto repair businesses next to it. That said, we did not feel unsafe in the house, however I did not feel comfortable in taking the dogs for a walk around the neighbourhood. There is a security camera system with tv panel which provides visibility into the yard, the front door/walkway and driveway.
