This property was more than we expected. A home away from home. Beautiful location, all the comforts of home and more. Every possible kitchen tool available and clean. The pool was such a great way to end the day. Absolutely no complaints.

Beautiful house very spacious. Close to attractions. The pool area is awesome the kids loved it.

The house was clean and modern with every amenity he would possibly need. The host is responsive to any needs you may have. The air conditioner stopped working and within four hours they had a maintenance man out there and it was working again. The pool is great and the neighborhood is also really good if you have kids. You can walk everywhere. There are three really good parks within walking distance. A lot of good hiking trails within driving distance and downtown Sierra Madre is about 2 miles away, which I walked to every morning for coffee. But, do read the fine print. Maybe they have changed the posting, but when I booked the listing the fee for heating the pool and spa was buried pretty deeply and I was surprised to find out that to heat the pool and the spa was going to be an extra $120 a day. We stayed for five weeks, so I was able to negotiate a lower price, which was still a big surprise. Always make sure you ask if there are any extra fees associated with the property.

The home is better then what the pictures show. It was very clean, the pool provided great fun for the kids and the location was perfect. Everything you could need or want was no more then a 10 minute drive. This will be our go to location whenever we need a place to stay in Pasadena. Thanks so much for such a wonderful time.

I love staying at Dawn’s house. This is our home away from home when visiting our daughter at college. In addition to the wonderful pool, the kitchen is fully equipped with everything you could possibly need to whip up a feast. Just a treasure of a place!

Amazing house location for a trip with young kids, right across the street from a park with swings and small play area. My husband and I would trade off taking our 2 year old to the park in the morning and let the rest of the fam sleep in :) And it's a quick drive to anything else you might need (a Target, grocery stores, restaurants, shopping, even more parks for the kids!, etc.) The pool and hot tub got a lot of use on our trip. (Be sure to check the additional cost to heat them per day, because we missed that and it caught us by surprise). But we decided it was worth it and the kids had a lot of fun. One thing I would note is there are a lot of nice things in the home (artwork and decor, which is lovely!) so we did need to move some things out of reach of little hands just to be safe :) The house is very well stocked and had everything we needed, including a high chair and pack-n-play crib. The kitchen is a dream and connects to the dining and living which was great for keeping an eye on little ones and enjoying some cooking at the same time. We're looking forward to booking this home for future trips!

We booked this amazing home for a long weekend to attend a family wedding in Pasadena with our 91-year old father. What a gorgeous, luxurious property - a perfect place to have a family get away. The pool and hot tub were a particular hit with all. Check in was a breeze, and Kari checked in with us throughout the weekend to make sure our stay was exceptional. Cannot rate this stay high enough! Hope to come back!

We couldn't have asked for a more perfect home away from home for our family vacation. Kari and her family have truly thought of everything to make this place feel welcoming and comfortable. The house was supplied and stocked with everything we needed to cook the occasional meal and clean clothes. The kids adored the pool and hot tub, and the hummingbirds visits to the flowering shrubs behind it each day were really special. The neighborhood is quiet and friendly. Couldn't have been happier. Thank you, Kari!! We would return in a heartbeat.
