This was a perfect location for being able to walk to Chapman University and visit our college kids. The neighborhood is so quiet. The outdoor patio was perfect to sit outside and enjoy. Will definitely be back!

Great location and accommodations. We thought the pool would be private. We didn't realize it was in front of the main house's living room so we didn't use it as the main house was occupied. Parking was off the street which was great.

Perfect for the layout of the space & property….nighttime star watching and charming night sounds on private patio…..oh as well as Disneyland fireworks right on time at 9:30 each evening…..,The host was wonderful very clear calmly communicated everything i and my accommodations or requests were met with the enthusiasm and pleasure…. You could tell this isn’t just a rental property to Katie. She’s a sweet woman and takes pride and how she decorates and showcases the obvious for her guests…..
My son Roman, who is very particular was right at home and comfortable
And when we need to leave or come back our own private parking space was very easy and accessible and in a safe area I know all this is I’ve lived in the northern end of Orange for over 25 years and and while I’m looking I enjoy the comfort

Had a great time in the retreat at Goose Hollow

Even though we had challenges in finding the place late in the night because of my phone not working properly, Katie helped us out locate the place quickly. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the retreat at Goose Hollow. It's a really nice and cozy place to stay which is quite close to DisneyLand. A nice perk of staying at the place was that the kitchen was super equipped!

So wonderful! Relaxing and cozy.

This was a wonderful and relaxing stay. Our family came down to go to Disneyland and we were so happy to have found The Retreat at Goose Hollow. Katie was a wonderful host and was so accommodating to our family. My boys loved staying at “the little house”. We will definitely stay here next time we are in the area. Thank you Katie!

Great location. It was very comfortable and truly felt like my home away from home.

I will definitely consider staying here again. The owners were very nice. . They added some light touches of Christmas with some very well place but not overstated decorations. It was so much nicer than staying at a hotel.

Matched all of our expectations. Quiet and comfortable.

We were looking for something away from the crowds and this was the perfect spot for us. This was a tucked away space that had a full kitchen, well-equipped living room, and comfortable beds. The host was amazing and was helpful at every step in the process. We would definitely stay here again.

Lovely home with all we needed

We loved out short stay that allowed us close proximity to Chapman University for homecoming and a space to relax in the evenings with a glass of wine in the outdoor patio. Katie as such a gracious host. Gem of a find for our family of 4. Tranquil and quite.
