This was a perfect place for our family. It had everything we needed and the backyard has a nice patio and great landscaping! The VBRO host was awesome we were greeted with a personalized message and if we had any issues she was very quick to respond. Would highly recommend! Its a gem in Thousand Oaks.

Deb's home is better than the pictures!
This was a perfect place for us to stay. This is the best VRBO home we've ever stayed in. The home is immaculate and everything is first class. We stayed for a week and wished we could have stayed longer. We were there with our son and his family and the home provided plenty of room for all six of us. The outdoor living space is also a real highlight of staying here.
Deb is wonderful to work with. Her friendly, professional approach to making all the necessary arrangements was very much appreciated. We look forward to our next visit!

Super Clean and Quiet Retreat
We spent almost two weeks in this lovely home. Our hosts Deb and Chelsea were so great to work with. When we had any questions we received immediate responses - that was above expectation! The kitchen was well stocked and had very nice high-end appliances which made it great for cooking. The furniture including the beds were so comfortable and clean. The backyard was also well appointed with comfortable furniture - it is a beautiful relaxing oasis. Great location, so close to the highway but yet quiet. The biggest disappointment was having to leave. Can't wait to come back. Thank you for making our stay so relaxing and worry free.

Wonderful stay!
We just attendee at this great home. Deborah was a very congenial host and was available for all of our questions. The house is beautifully furnished with all of the amenities needed. The locations very convenient to the 101, but is located in a very quiet, private neighborhood. The landscaping and patio area are exceptional. We link forward to staying there again.

Without a doubt - best place!
Deborah is an amazing host who really thought through the smallest detail to make this home a comfortable place. There wasn't an inch that was not comfortable from fully stocked kitchen & pantry with all the appliances, pots & pan etc that you would need as a cook. Deborah didn't leave a bare bones kitchen that you often find in other temp houses. The house boasts a large backyard with a citrus tree, beds in every room with a tv. My son enjoyed it so much, he asked if we can move there. We stayed 2 months, and it only took one night for us to completely immerse ourselves in the our new home. We didn't have a single thing we wished we had from our home. The place is even better than the pictures. It won't disappoint.

Beautiful, nicely upgraded, and charming home with stunning private backyard
This home is an A+!!! Owner went above and beyond our typical experience with vacation rentals to accommodate our family with our stay. This home is better than described in the property overview. The property was very well-maintained and clean. The owner was accessible when needed, and there was no issues with deposits or payments. The location is excellent, just 25 minutes to Malibu beach, and near great restaurants and shopping in Thousand Oaks. We would definitely recommend this vacation rental to family, friends, and anyone looking for a place to stay in Thousand Oaks!
