Sadly, we lost our dream home in the Station fire and had been searching for over a month to find a new temporary home that felt right and that would accommodate our pets. As soon as I walked through the gate and saw the towering ancient oak that canopys the entire front of the property...I knew I was home again. The owner shed some tears with me and moved us in the next day, even though she said her home was not ready for guests when we met. Thank you for giving us the time we had there that helped us to heal and recharge. We will never forget it. Carolyn

We stayed at this amazing property twice. We travelled with our 14 year old, blind Tibetan Terrier from England and she came to life on these incredible, healing grounds. We don't have flats with yards of this size in London so it really was a treat for us all and especially to have a home with no steps! We will stay at this home when we return to Southern California because you feel like you are in the country but are just a minute from Ventura Boulevard and the Ventura Freeway and a few minutes from the canyon that takes you to the ocean. ENJOY! Ray and Alex Marshall, London.
