The Garden Studio Apartment is accessed via a separate entrance,. This large, private studio is bright and welcoming. It includes two queen beds, a dining table for 4, and a functional kitchenette with a microwave, fridge, and coffee maker. A comfortable office chair is provided for remote work, and the back door opens onto the main patio, offering lovely views of the waterfall and garden.



Guest Access:

Guests have exclusive and private access to the entire property. This includes the main house, the separate garden studio apartment, and all outdoor amenities like the hot tub, patio, and outdoor kitchen. There are no shared spaces on the property, ensuring complete privacy for your group.



The Neighborhood:

Older custom homes and huge mature trees surround this Visalia neighborhood.



The specific street the house is on is a main thoroughfare, (although the house is set back from the street), and is less than 1 mile from downtown, the Convention Center, and the Hospital District. Downtown Visalia has lovely shops, restaurants, and bars.



Getting Around:

If you don't have a personal vehicle, you can walk to most destinations, although you will be on a busy street and a pedestrian walkway over the freeway getting there. The walk is safe but not picturesque. But this helps you avoid having to find parking and makes it safe to enjoy adult beverages since you don't have to drive. Alternatively, there is Lyft and Uber- wait times vary.

Please review these important details for your stay:



Climate Control: To ensure comfort and energy efficiency, the thermostat is centrally managed. It can be set to a minimum of 72°F during the summer and a maximum of 68°F during the winter. The living room fireplace is available for additional warmth at the touch of a button.

About the host

Hosted by James Ebaugh

Host profile image
I love to travel and I host based on what is important to my guests. Some people enjoy getting to know their host, perhaps want tours of the area etc.

Others want more privacy. All guests want accommodations that are more spacious, more comfortable, and more affordable than a hotel room. You will find all of those things and much more with this home.

Day trips from this house:

Sequoia National Park,
Sierra Nevada Mountain Range for hiking or skiing
Central Valley Coast with beautiful beaches, trails, and wildlife
Wine tasting
and more

Why they chose this property

This house has been featured in the Garden Club's Annual Garden Show, both for the Drought Tolerant Landscape in the front, as well as for the huge water feature and lush gardens in the backyard. The massive Oak trees and built-in patio coverings keep the backyard comfortable so that guests can enjoy the outdoor kitchen throughout the summer. The large fire pit make it a useable and comfortable space in the winter as well.

What makes this property unique

Visalia is one of the few places where visitors are only a day trip away from vineyards and wine tasting, the CA Central Coast, and Sequoia National Park. It is a great place for a couples getaway, or for a family vacation.

I have also hosted groups where several couples, or a couple of families, want to spend a relaxing weekend together in a lovely setting without having to clean up at the end!

Sometimes guests are celebrating a birthday, a graduation, a new job, or sometimes just a chance to be together and unwind!
