This place is just perfect for two people, and an easy bike ride to the park and lakefront (and starting line). It's always clean, has a well equipped kitchen and bathroom, and parking is easy. Donna is also easy to communicate with, friendly, and so reasonable. I highly recommend the Casita for anyone looking to get away. An added bonus is every time we stay here, my daughter wins her race! So there's that, too. 😄 ##### Kelly M. Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### leilani s.

Yes you can walk down to the bay from the house. It was a bit more work for us with a little one going down the hill, but it was perfect for the 1st day since the weather wasnt the greatest. The casita is just like the photos. This place had EVERYTHING you needed. Seasonings for food, syrup for pancakes, coffee etc. Even ziplocks ans tupperwear. I loved that everything was labeled (what sheets went to what, extra towels etc). No need for ac the bay breeze was great. We had two cars and followed donnas directions. Our car safe in the extra lot down the street. The place was just what we need for our family. We had a great stay. If you want to take a trip down memory lane check out there dvd collection.this is definitely a favorite place and will be back next summer! Thanks so much Donna. ##### leilani s.

The bed was the most comfortable for us because its a memory foam, like we have at our own home. We gave the cleanliness 4/5 due to a few areas in the kitchenette floor had some spillage that was not wiped up from the maids. Looked to be something from the trash can was removed and they just didn't see what dripped on the floor, so not a big deal to report as we just wiped that up. The outside of the front area of this home had a lot of leaves debris, and it looked unkept, but we figured their gardeners may not have been there, or there was a wind storm ? Anyway, the rest of the unit was clean and it was separated from the guests in the main house. The only thing that was disturbing was the parking situation. The parking pad on the street was only big enough for 2 vehicles. The guests in the main unit had 5-7 cars at anytime and they didn't park well at all. The host did have to contact them upon arrival and then we had to bang on their door to ask them to fix their parking situation the next day as well. The host apologized for this inconvenience and provided a small gift upon check out, which we appreciated the acknowledgement of the parking issue we experienced. We liked the area where this home is located. We felt safe and it was quiet enough to get some rest after our long days of family visits. This host was great with communication and fairness of nightly rate for this unit. ##### Darren P. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rozann G.

But know your children if you take little ones. My grandkids stayed the night twice, but only because they listen well. If it had been my other daughter’s children, the stairs would have been too inviting a play area. I could never have taken them. However, my youngest daughter’s kids (4, 10, 15) are every parent’s dream. I only had to tell the 4 yo once (day one) to stay off the stairs. The stairs are inside, so heavy (beach?) items can be left downstairs. We all loved playing on the beach and fooling around in the water. The walk there was easy (after climbing the driveway). It brought joy to my heart to see my grandkids (and adult children) have so much fun playing in the water. The set up is very lovely. The master bedroom has a large king sized bed, a coffee table with 2 chairs, night stands, entrance to the laundry room and bathroom, walk in closet with plenty of space for just about anything. And it’s well stocked! Bath robes (2), extra pillows, blankets, (I think) a privacy screen (I didn’t need to use it so can’t be sure), etc. Romance is in the air with the glass enclosed, gas fireplace between the bedroom and living room. You can watch your kids from the bed or put up the privacy screen. The kitchen is well stocked. Pots, pans, other cooking things are left of the fridge. There wasn’t anything I needed that I needed to cook that I didn’t find in the pantry or drawers. Spices are above the stove, amazingly well stocked.🥰😍❤ ##### Rozann G.
