Renting this house was a valuable learning experience for me and my family. We learned that we much prefer to rent homes that are managed by owners (who we feel are more likely to provide a "home away from home" experience), as opposed to businesses.
On the positive side, we got an almost immediate response the couple times we expressed a concern. Also, this house is close to Disneyland and the walk is enjoyable. The Disney murals/wallpaper on the walls are very well-done and fun for kids and the pool/outdoor area is beautiful and relaxing.
One issue we had with this property was that it did not feel like a home away from home. The amenities are very basic. If you plan to make your meals, be sure to bring everything you may need to prepare a meal including oil, spices (including salt and pepper), condiments, etc. Also, bring your own entertainment, as we did not see any board games, cards, or pool toys and the foosball table pictured does not exist. One more recommendation is test the pool water immediately upon arriving. We did not check it right away and after an exhausting day at Disneyland we were looking forward to relaxing in the pool/hot tub. Unfortunately, both were much too cold to enter, despite having been automatically charged the “heated pool fee.” We reported the problem and were told that the manager would try to program the heat remotely. The pool was finally warm enough to enter the day before we checked out and we have had no response to our request for a partial refund of the heated pool fee. (Nor have we been reimbursed for taking the empty propane bottle for the grill to get filled, despite sending the receipt).
One last thing I feel compelled to mention is that I have never, in all of my lodging experiences, had to finish the laundry of the previous guest! And apparently this is standard practice as our friends who also rented a house at the same time (through Funtierland), also had a dryer full of towels which required drying and folding before the towels/washer/dryer could be used. Although my family and I are always meticulous about leaving a house in the same (if not better) condition than when we found it, this time I was a bit resentful in doing so, as I have never seen such an extensive list of chores, rules, warnings, etc.
As I mentioned, this was a valuable learning experience, and while I will not say that it was a terrible experience, it is one we will most likely avoid in the future.
