The castle is as advertised and the views are amazing. Getting there is pretty scary due to the curves up the mountain but once you get there, the castle and views are awesome. We were a family of 10 and all fit comfortably. My only issue was a drainage issue in one of the showers. Otherwise the castle was very cool to stay at and we enjoyed it. Thank you.

Really no complaints on the renting process, and the communication up until the day of the rental. The rules seemed pretty straight forward, send the owners of the property which happened to be a third party management company called, ‘Evolve’ a picture of my ID 48 hrs before check-in at 4p to get gate code access and lock box instructions. This was done on my end, and then nothing was ever communicated back to me. The day of check-in, still no information on gate code access, or lock box instructions. So naturally, I called the number that on the contact page. Turns out the gentleman I spoke with was the manager of the cleaning service that Evolve uses when they turn over the house after guests complete their stay. He said that he never received my ID photo, and for me to text it to him because it’s easier. I replied, “no problem” and sent a follow up. Close to the check-in time, I still received no confirmation, no information about gate code access, or any lock box instruction. I called the gentleman that I had correspondence with earlier and he said that there would be no need for any of that because the cleaning crew was still turning over the house, and that they’d let my party in. As I mentioned before, check in was at 4p and we arrived at the property around 4:30 to give a buffer of time for the cleaning crew to finish the home. They were still not finished cleaning the house. My party and I decided to leave the home to give the crew more time to finish. We came back at 6p and the cleaning crew had just finished up (2 hrs after check in). They unfortunately still did not leave me any gate code information, nor lock box codes. I did not realize this was a problem until more of my party made their way to the house and were locked of the gate that I didn’t have codes to( gate was open while the cleaning crew was there). I had to call the cleaning crew manager again and get the gate codes after about 20 mins of waiting. On check out, the cleaning crew manager still did not think to give me lock box codes for the keys until the absolute last moment as we were trying to leave the property. There was no binder or Manual for myself to familiarize myself with the house, even any first-aid location instructions in case of emergency. No reimbursement for the 2 hrs of time I was not able to be in the house due to cleaning. Simply put, this rental was way too expensive to have this many hiccups.

We had a wonderful time at the Castle. Very nice, historic, yet modern location to stay. Rooms, bathrooms, kitchen and pool were nice. Would love to rent again.

Good place. Could use some updates in cookware provided and other amenities. There are signs in all the bathrooms that say to put the toilet paper in the trash can. If you need a stove, then know it is an old style that is not spotless. Lots of space to spread out and hang. We enoyed our time at The Castle.

Beautiful Spanish style home. The house is pretty far up into the hills which provided some beautiful city views. Very secluded, private and quiet. Gorgeous upgrades to the bathrooms. I wish the kitchen was upgraded. The stove and oven were very old. Being an older home, it was a little dusty. Towels provided were very low grade. Bring your own towels. (I usually do that anyway.) Overall, I enjoyed my stay!!!

Really enjoyed staying here. We had a Cal Poly graduation to attend, which was the only time we left. Everyone enjoyed this classic and classy castle.

The space was absolutely beautiful with an easy check-in process. The contact people were relaxed and flexible and were easy to contact should I have any questions. I would stay here again.

Loved our stay at The Castle. The views cannot be described, they are second to none. The drive up and down the mountain was always lively, many white knuckles (but you get used to it). Coulda used a warning about the no flushing of toilet paper, but that's the only knock (and still worth it). Would stay there again in a heartbeat.

We were a little bit apprehensive with this property at first due to stories and urban legends about the area but it all went away when we arrived at the property. The short uphill climb to the property can be challenging for some drivers but enjoyable for the passengers. The beautiful city lights will serve as your night light at nighttime and the beautiful sunrise is absolutely mesmerizing. The house will definitely bring you back in time, and watch tower is the place to get your sunrise reel and photos. We ended our weekend getaway with a short hike but for advance hikers there are many trails to choose from and all with amazing 360 views. Property manager was quick to respond and very accommodating to our needs. The pool is there for you to look at during winter but a hot tub would have been a great alternative. Definitely an experience to remember.

Overall we had a very pleasant stay. The couple issues we had were taken care of right away by the property manager that lives on site. The views are amazing! I wish we had been able to spend more time just enjoying the home but we had commitments so basically only slept there. It would be a great place to just go there, stay and enjoy.

Although we had a few hiccups the property manager who lives on site was very responsive. It is a very charming home with excellent views. I wish we could have spent more of our time at the home instead of the commitments we had off premises.

The property had a few cobwebs but with all the intricate woodwork and little nooks and corners, it can expected. The house is majestic and the history of the home was well preserved. I loved it! The on-site people were friendly but we didn’t need much because everything was very well laid out in advance. The drive was a bit scary the first time but actually less intimidating in the dark because you could see cars coming around the corners. I wouldn’t take more than 2 cars up there. We had 6 adults all reported sleeping better than at home which is a huge compliment. Thankful for the opportunity to experience it. Would return if given a chance.

We stayed there with family (9 people) and this place is beautiful and well kept. Lots of amenities including the pool. Lot of room for everyone to sleep and lounge. Nicely stocked kitchen. The house is really nice and has amazing views. The check in process was smooth and the property manager was very responsive.

By far my favorite stay at any rental home. I had my wedding here at this beautiful home. I had some family from our of town and wanted to host an intimate outdoor dinner after our church ceremony. I rented the home and stay a few days before the wedding, the views are spectacular, and the home itself holds so much history. It's gorgeous! The owner was amazing. Communicative, responsive and very helpful! He was such a delight to work with. I would recommend this home for any family looking to have a small reunion or just need a little get away in the hills. Love this place!

My family and I rented this home for our stay in LA. The first time out there was at night and the drive was kinda intimidating. It got a lot better throughout the weekend. The house was big. Kitchen is dated. We didn’t use any of the appliances (besides the fridge). There was quite a few spider webs and a few other things that could have been cleaned but overall we enjoyed our stay. There wasn’t anything so serious as to reach out to the property manager. Everything went smoothly.
