This lakefront property is very charming and cozy. Just what you need to get away from the city without having to travel so far. The lake and scenery are beautiful. Our host Hollie was very responsive and helpful. We would definitely stay at this property again.

This guest and her family were great! They were respectful, communicative, and left our home tidy. I’m glad our place was a good fit for their needs and just short distance away from dropping their son off at Cal State San Marcos. We’d be more than happy to host them again any time. 🥰
