Much larger and better appointed than expected. I loved having separate vanities. The location was perfect for our visit. As someone who grew up in the area, I remembered the big White House on the hill. It was a treat to stay in their guest wing. It would be nice to come in warmer weather to enjoy the pool area. Maybe next time?

About the host

Hosted by Julia

Host profile image
Robert and I both grew up back East but have been in S. California since the early 1970's. I retired after 30 years of teaching and have a love of languages, reading, yoga and hiking. We both enjoy travel, meeting people, wine, cooking, entertaining, and riding bikes.



Why they chose this property

We fell in love with the beauty of this unique property the moment we set eyes on it. When you drive up the extensive driveway you are greeted by a majestically massive 150 year old Australian Morton "s Bay Fig Tree. The original portion of this property was built in the 1930's as a typical S. California working ranch. We both love history and historical sites and are very proud of the fact that the grandson of President Ulysses S. Grant, Chapman Grant, lived at and owned this site in the 1960's! We are thrilled to be able to share with our guests this piece of American history while enjoying the architectural beauty of a Mediterranean Villa.
