We really enjoyed our stay here. The deck was a highlight, such a great space to relax and spend time outside. The kitchen was also fully stocked, which made it easy to cook and feel at home.The bottom floor could definitely use some updating. It felt quite musty, and the carpet had a noticeable wet smell. The beds and pillows were also a bit worn and could use replacing.Overall, we had a great experience and appreciated the home, especially the upper level, where we ended up spending most of our time. The positives definitely made the stay enjoyable, despite the rooms that need improvement.
Host was welcoming and gave us great directions. Climbing the stairs to the property is well-worth the view. Only request for next time would be a working dishwasher.
Our family had an amazing time. We really enjoyed hanging out on the deck. The home had a lot of charm. The neighborhood was great and quiet and the view was absolutely amazing.
We enjoyed staying here for a race on Catalina Island.

Your feedback means a lot and helps us continue to provide a wonderful experience for all our guests. We appreciate your patronage and look forward to welcoming you back soon.
It’s all about the view with this location. The outdoor balcony is the whole reason one would enjoy this location. Which we did indeed. Inside benefits were number of available beds. However structure is a bit archaic in design and we found the WiFi connection poor and number of available electrical outlets extremely limited. Many of the outlets that we were able to find were poor, not allowing firm plug ins. Outdoor heaters were non-operational. Overall we loved our stay but structure could use some upgrades, especially in this day and age where internet connectivity and charging needs are vital
Thank you for the positive review. I'm glad you found my service to be awesome. I always strive to provide the best possible experience for my users. Your feedback is appreciated and motivates me to continue delivering high-quality assistance.
This property was beautiful. It has everything needed to have a wonderful stay. I would suggest taking a taxi/cart to the location, as it is a long walk with luggage up stairs. Otherwise, the view is amazing!

Thank you for the wonderful review of our property. We appreciate your feedback and are glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay and found the view to be amazing. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future.
House was quirky and fun with lots of rooms for kiddos to explore! Great kitchen for cooking at home and a deck with a view you cannot beat! Highly recommended!
View was amazing! However, the property smelled musty and the carpet on the bottom 2 floors was dirty. It seems like there may have been previous water damage that needs to be fixed by either the owner or property management company. House was a bit out dated. Needs some TLC.
This property is great for a large group. It's an old house with lots of character. Kitchen is updated enough to cook with ease. The view is by far one of the best on the island. Dinner on the deck is a must during your stay. The ONLY drawback for some will be the location. You need a golf cart if you are not inclined to take the public staircase. If you're a group who exercises, your stairclimb is worked into your day, of not, get a golfcart for your stay. The view and comfort for our large family was worth every step!
We love staying at this house, we spent the majority of our time on the deck enjoying the view. This house is perfect for family and friends, especially if you just want to hang out on the deck and enjoy the view. It would be even better if you had a golf cart since town is a bit far and there are a ton of stairs.
Even though the weather wasn’t great, we were able to enjoy the large house and incredible view of the harbor and casino. I highly recommend this house for a large group. We come to Avalon every year and we definitely want to rent this house again.
This weekend laughing, playing and loving was exactly what was missing for us, our two sons and their families. We lived on the balcony with its magical view while having our coffee and meals. This home was comfortable, relaxing and met our needs perfectly. Everyone wants to come back :).

A very special property
We rented this home to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary with our immediate family. While at the house, we spent most of our time on the deck enjoying the stunning view. The kitchen was well-stocked, the beds and bathrooms were plentiful. A long staircase just down the street led directly into town, where we all found various activities to enjoy. A wonderful memory we'll all savor for a long time to come!
We had a blast staying in this home which is definitely old and hasn't been updated. However, it is like stepping into the past which was SO COOL and inspired us to visit the casino and the museum to learn more about the history of the island. The only important thing to note is that the home is accessible by stairs and has lots of stairs inside, so make sure everyone staying here is comfortable with stair climbing!

Good for large family
The place should have been aired out first before checking in. The damp, moldy smell was hard to deal with. If it is only a rental, removing the carpet would help. Also the bathroom amenities where insufficient. No shampoo/conditioner.

Million-dollar view, but…….
If you are willing to pay high dollar for a beautiful view of Catalina, this is your place; otherwise, way overpriced, kitchen is way under stocked with decent cooking utensils. Listed as a 4 bathroom, but never located the fourth bathroom. 29 steps down to master bedroom and very tiny master bathroom. I realize the house is 100 years old, very quaint and well-kept, but can be made a whole lot better with some upgrades, e,g, new mattresses, kitchen pots and pans, essentials like paper towels, foil, baggies, things that are usually staples in other VRBOs that we have rented. The view is amazing, yes, but that is exactly what you are paying for
