The house was perfect, private, comfortable, and clean. Everything we needed was available to us. Super close to town. Bath tub was the best ever! Beds were super comfortable. View was exactly as shown. New Spirit Vacation Homes was super responsive.

We booked this house as a quiet getaway from Los Angeles during the madness of the 4th of July weekend - and BOY did it deliver. It was so incredibly quiet the entire stay, which was good because the sole purpose of the trip was to get our dog who is petrified of fireworks somewhere she wouldn't have to hear them. We only heard birds, squirrels and the wind through the trees. The view from our bedroom window was stunning and we had our morning coffee on the deck each day. The jetted tub was a LOVELY perk, as was the sky full of stars visible from the expansive deck. The town center was a 5 minute car ride and had the cutest shops & restaurants. I highly recommend this home to anyone looking to get away any time of year (but if you're coming during the winter you better follow their instructions, because we can see how it might be a little tricky with snow!).
