This unique Laguna home is set on a beautiful half acre that backs up to a gorgeous pristine canyon. The house, built behind high walls, has a gated entry that opens into a quiet, secluded garden.
The kitchen, with it's granite island and six burner gas range, is a cook's paradise. We've outfitted our kitchen with the finest knives, cookware and dishes. A french door refrigerator with ice maker is located in the pantry next to a large wine cooler with separate storage for white and red. The bar on one side of the granite island is the perfect place to sip morning coffee while watching the news on the flat screen TV at the end of the kitchen.
Both the master bedroom and first guest room have king sized beds. The third bedroom is a queen. All the bedrooms have flat screen televisons with DVD players.
We stock beach equipment for our tenants, chairs, beach bags, towels, umbrellas and children's toys.
Every Monday our wonderful housekeeper comes to change beds, clean, wash and iron for our guests.
Her services are included in the rent.
The house is light filled and airy with beautiful views in every direction. Look to the canyon and down to the sea or turn back to gaze at the flower filled garden courtyard with its bird bath and giant birds of paradise.
Amenities include high speed internet, cable television with local and premium channels, a printer, copy, fax machine and the services of a once a week housekeeper. There are two sets of stacking washer/dryers in the garage.
Alta Laguna Park is just up the hill from the house. There are six public tennis courts, biking and hiking trails, a baseball park, basketball courts and a terrific children's playground.
Our home offers the peace of a retreat but is only minutes away from downtown Laguna and the beaches.

This really is a Laguna Beach Gem

My wife and I discovered this wonderful property while vacationing in the area last year and immediately booked it for August 2011. Perched almost at "Top of the World" it proved to be even better than we had remembered. Photos don't do justice to the magnificent canyon and ocean views from almost every room and can't convey the serenity you feel when you enter the house through the gated garden (which our wire fox terrier quickly claimed as hers). The house has a great floor plan which easily accomodated our daughter and her family who joined us for two weeks, it was very comfortably furnished and superbly equipped. We called Wendy, the delightful owner, who had to awaken the Maytag repairman to fix one of the two, yes two, washers. When we spoke, she asked if either the hanging flower baskets in the courtyard or the live orchids in the house needed to be replaced. We've rented through VRBO many times and never been asked if it's time to replace the orchids. This really is a Laguna Beach Gem. Frank & Rosemary, August 2011

Our time at Wendy and Larry’s home made for the best summer ever. The house, the furnishings, the views, etc. etc. can’t be beat. If you like to cook you will LOVE the kitchen. We spent most of our time in there just hanging out (and eating and drinking ;-). Our two Scottish Terriers had a back yard to run and chase all the critters. The courtyard was very serene and we enjoyed all the potted herbs and vegetables that were there just for us! You won’t find another rental like it!

In our 2 months stay in this beautiful House and Garden, it was more than a Home from Home. Very high standard of facilities but also very comfortable and welcoming.
Owner response:Dear Gyn: Thank you so much for the lovely review. Danielle still misses you. She had such a nice time with you and loved having you in the house. I hope all is well with both you and James. All the best, Wendy

We stayed in this fabulous place that was just like home except for the ocean and canyon views, cool breezes and the quaint town of Laguna Beach. The home is very roomy,has everything that I needed in the kitchen and the master bedroom was to die for...I wanted to take the bed and linens home with me. Wendy and Larry make sure you have ALL you need. The place is well stocked and has a weekly housekeeper to make it better than home..We are taking it for the month of August. Can't wait to get back....
