Since before we arrived and during our time in the area, Michael was very easy to talk to and extremely accommodating.

Place was very clean which was the most important thing to us having to travel during COVID. The bathrooms were nicely updated. Kitchen is not recently updated but everything worked and it was well equipped with what we needed To cook simple meals. The outdoor space was gorgeous and well cared for. Enjoyed the nature as saw humming birds and butterflies.

This place has the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in at a VRBO. It was great to wake up fully ambulatory. The kitchen was highly frustrating as the skillets were well past their prime cheap non-stick skillets. I found no baking pans outside of a broiler pan. The stove and oven are on their last leg. We had to open windows when we used the oven as the gas fumes were strong while it was heating up. I suspect the thermostat is off as well as things took twice as long as it would in my home oven. The burners were hard to regulate if you turned them down the flame frequently went out you had to keep an eye on them. There were gaps in the grout on the master bathroom and the occasional little spider came to visit. The full bath in the hall doesn't appear to have been updated recently. Owner communication was great, came over to address the clogged tub that wasn't draining. Neither bath had working exhaust fans. I was put off by the lack of window coverings in the master bathroom (though the window was high it just skeeved me out). If your primary purpose for VRBO's is to be able to cook your own meals this may not be the best place for you. Due to significant allergies this was my intention but we ended up eating out more than I preferred and I'm still paying for it physically. The washer and dryer are dated and loud. That wasn't as big a deal as having to be on site for the length of the wash cycle so we could turn off the water supply after the washer had finished it's cycle. The cycles weren't long, I think the longest cycle was less than 25 minutes start to finish.

5 star

My family and I stayed here the week before Christmas. Michael is great, quick to respond and very friendly. The location was perfect and it was a quiet neighborhood. Although we enjoyed our stay we were disappointed with the cleanliness of the house. It is definitely in need of a deep clean! Hopefully the cleaning crew works a little harder.

Everything was great. The beds were comfortable. The bathrooms were updated. We really enjoyed the backyard area with the fire in the chiminea. The neighborhood was very quite yet close to the Huntington Beach attractions.

Easy drive to the beach. Quiet neighborhood. Mike was a great host

We enjoyed our stay at this very nice home. It is located in a quiet neighborhood. Though it is across the street from an elementary school, we barely heard a peep. The owner is friendly, cheerful, helpful and responsive, a good guy. The location is convenient and near many attractions. The well-kept backyard was perfect for our two young children. It's a great family getaway location.
