Great space, quiet and relaxing. The hostess was very responsive. The home was clean, the beds were comfortable, we loved the decor. We brought our GSD with us, he loved the spacious yard. The back yard was beautiful with a great swimming pool and hot tub. Would definitely come back.

Great getaway in the Vally

Very cute property! Fun bohemian style house. Lots of outdoor living areas including the beautiful pool. Had a bit of trouble with WiFi and outlets not working. Also they recently had the washer break and the house smelled of mildew.

Amazing property!

This house has it all! A HUGE pool our teens lived in, close access to the freeway for our Universal Studios and Disney trips and a great neighborhood. The house is beautifully decorated with many extras in case you forgot anything. We will definitely be staying here again.

Lovely place with a nice pool

We really enjoyed our stay, the pool was fantastic for the kids and the yard was nicely enclosed for our dog, who was super happy snoofling around for hours (although cats are frequent visitors!). The house is clean and cute and has everything you need. Only real drawback is that it's not particularly walkable to get to shops/restaurants, and if you are out walking at night with your dog or just for a stroll, then just be sensible about it given the surrounding area. Communication from the owner was super clear and helpful, and they have clearly put good effort into making sure you have a good stay. The outdoor dining area is lovely and just has a really relaxing vibe. We took the family up to Magic Mountain, about half an hour up the 405, and it's a great base for anything in Burbank or that side of the Valley since you are literally 1 minute from the freeway but don't really hear the traffic from it. Overall very recommended - for a cosy place with a pool that's close to so much stuff, can't go wrong.

Great spot!

We visited our nephew and had a great time. This rental is as-advertised. Unfortunately it was a bit too cold to utilize the pool, but it was very clean and the house and yard are beautiful. We'd definitely stay again next time we visit LA!

Wonderful Stay!

We rented the house as it was close to where my son and daughter-in-law live so that we could attend a family event. The house was very clean and the location was private and quiet. The beds were really comfortable. The back yard and pool were beautiful and a wonderful place to relax. We enjoyed our stay very much!

Perfect Location with the comforts of home

This VRBO was the perfect location for us! My son, daughter-in-law, and grandson live close by and only took minutes to travel to their home. Access to the Target, Costco and the Freeway was super easy. We traveled to Universal Studios on Sunday morning and traffic was minimal. The house was well equipped with everything we needed. We had plenty of room for our family of 4. Having a pool was definitely a nice treat since we stayed here during the month of July. We would definitely seek out this VRBO the next time we travel to Los Angeles. Allison was very easy to contact when I had questions for her. Thank you!!!

2 weeks at the Bungalow

We spent 2 weeks here and very much enjoyed it. Communication was easy with owner. Back patio was ideal for having dinners in the evening. House was well stocked with the essentials. The house is in a nice neighborhood and with the mature landscaping the yard and pool area feel very private. The location was great for us, our daughters were doing a summer dance intensive that was less than 2 miles away. The house is very close to the 405 and 101 freeways for easy access to LA or getting around the valley. Thanks!

A retreat in the middle of Los Angeles

We stayed at this lovely property for seven nights while visiting our oldest daughter, son-in-law and grandson. What a great choice! It is located in a quiet neighborhood but is easily accessible to everything. The outdoor area is perfect -- private and comfortable. We ate most meals outside on the covered patio throughout our stay -- and the pool really added to our grandparent "cred" with our grandson. It truly felt like a retreat. We really appreciated being able to bring our dog -- she loved hanging out on the covered patio. The owner is very nice to work with -- friendly, responsive and accommodating. We love Los Angeles and we hope to return. We would love to get to stay at this property again.

Very comfortable house

We enjoyed our stay although the house does need some upgrades including new washer/dryer and refrigerator and air conditioners in both bedrooms. The air unit in the living room was great. There were 5 feral cats in the back yard every day and since I am allergic to cats I didn't go outside. Overall the house was very comfortable.
