Second time staying here. It is so peaceful and clean. Backyard has beautiful view of the hills. Front yard has a beautiful view of everything else. Very Zen.
Dark colors and gold accents. Minimalistic decor will pull out your inner goth vampire sadness energy. A beautifully dark minimalists vibe. Only bummer was the watered down shampoo, conditioner and soap

Just a Blah Place, Nothing Nice
Bedrooms are way smaller than the pictures make it look, it's just a blah place. It's clean, and quiet, but decor is dated, and gaudy, I wouldn't stay here again. There is also another unit on site, so you may not be alone here.
Also be aware of the not so transparent fees the property manager charges you. A non refundable damage fee before they will give you the keys to the place.
They also make you sign a contract separate of VRBO before they give you the keys, and request copies of your ID's. I booked last minute, otherwise I would have stayed somewhere else.
I do not recommend this place, there are better, nicer options out there.
Please read this before booking this unit. I hope the property is as nice as advertised, but be warned about my experience after making full payment. This one-star review isn’t for the rental itself—the photos on VRBO suggest a quality home—but rather for the third-party property management company.
After paying in full, the management company withheld check-in information until I provided:
A photo of my driver’s license (front and back)
A copy of my credit card
A selfie
An additional damage waiver fee
This seemed excessive and suspicious, especially since none of these requirements were disclosed upfront during booking. It felt misleading, if not outright deceptive.
In follow-up messages, the company explained these requirements were to prevent unauthorized charges and verify the reservation, yet they still delayed confirming if they could waive the fee. I had already paid in full, so these additional demands felt unjustified. This kind of process raises serious concerns about transparency and could be seen as a scam. So...WE NEVER RECEIVED CHECKIN information and thus couldn't stay at the place. To make matters worse, after all this, they sent us automated checkout instructions and follow-up messages about our stay—seriously?! It gave the impression that the entire process was poorly managed or even a scam.
