The owners have this house well-stocked with everything you’d need except your groceries. The yard was shockingly large and had lovely flowers, shade, and a seating area. For anyone with fragrance sensitivities, you can smell the fragrance from cleaning products when you enter (as one would expect in a pet-friendly house with carpet), but it wasn’t overwhelming. We didn’t see any pet hair on the furniture or on us, even after playing board games in the floor with our kids. The house was lovely and there was an abundance of storage space for clothes and personal items in the bedrooms. We had a lovely stay in this home and hope you do the same! ##### Brad A.

Everything was bright, cheerful, clean, comfortable & well organized. The interior butterfly collection is perfect but what really we enjoyed were your special clear glass plant hydroponic planters. Your yard and flowers (especially roses and hydrangeas) were lovely. The weather was perfect and we enjoyed having the sliding doors open (with screens closed) so that we could enjoy the outside breezes. The location of your home is great. The neighborhood is very private and quiet yet we were within walking distance of restaurants, grocery stores/co-op, and a great bakery. Additionally the central location was perfect for taking day trips to lots of great places. We explored many of the beaches in the area, the Sue-meg/Patrick’s Point State Park & the Sequoia Park Zoo & Redwood Skywalk. Your Guest Information Manuel was very helpful. We have not had many VRBO rental experiences for comparison, however there are a few things that might be helpful to include for others who visit your abode, for example; we didn’t find the vacuum until it was time to leave…and more specifics regarding expectations for clean-up would be helpful. We washed and dried most of our towels in the morning before leaving and left one load still on wash cycle. We stripped the beds and left sheets on floor in lau ##### james c.

The home felt like a home away from home. The home was very clean, fully stocked, very comfortable beds, pillows and couches. The yard was big and perfect for our small dog. We would love to stay here again. Thank you for providing special touches throughout the home to make it feel so comfortable. ##### Kimberly V.
