Plenty of room for all our family to stay under one roof. shopping close by. Great old house with modern everything and a beautiful hangout porch in front where we spent most of our time
We really enjoyed the house, very nice the host left some snacks and bathroom supplies beyond what we have experienced before. Especially enjoyed the porch and patios. Great location as well, easy walking to several restaurants etc. Would certainly stay again. We had 12 adults and one infant.
My family stayed here for my son's college graduation and Wedding (both the same weekend). Everyone loved the charm of the house and the amazing gardens. The host was great to deal with and communicated everything needed for the weekend. I highly recommend this home and would stay here again if the need arises.
The pictures of the house in the listing do not do justice to it - so much better actuality. This is a very livable, comfortable and convenient location in Pasadena. The house is big - we were ten and never felt crowded - plenty of space. The host, Charles, was very communicative and accommodating. We would most definitely stay here again.
We booked for four nights for my son's wedding. Our party totaled twelve including immediate family, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins. The house is large and easily accommodated our group. The well equipped kitchen and multiple socializing areas indoors and outdoors allowed us to host a meet and greet with the in-laws-to-be in settings ranging from jovial (kitchen) to quiet and reflective (cottage patio).
Charles was an excellent and caring host, with uniformly quick and helpful responses to all inquiries from pre-booking through checkout. In all aspects, everything was as advertised.
Without reservation, we would book with Charles again in future.
If I could give Charles, himself as a host, more than 5 stars I absolutely would! My group had a bad experience with a different rental, so we were all a bit skittish to do a house again, but Charles was so very communicative from the day I rented until today (our check out day).
His home is charming with all the craftsman style of the homes of that era, but a nicely updated kitchen. The bedrooms fit our party of 8 friends perfectly for our 3 day stay. He is a thoughtful host with all of his personal touches, too.
If we have another chance to rent Charle's home again, for another event, I will be so happy to do so! Thank you for everything, Charles. I appreciate you.
Really great place for a large group - my friends were all in town for our friend's wedding and it was great to all be under one roof. Charles was extremely responsive and helpful.
We all had a fantastic weekend at this lovely vintage house. One of our grandkids said it was his favorite house ever! Our host was terrific - very responsive and gave us excellent recommendations. Highly recommend this place.
Our brother passed away unexpectedly. We are a large family. Charles was wondering & very accommodating. This was our first experience with any type of large rental. Our experience was wonderful. Thank you Charles!
Charles, our host, was fantastic and responded to our few texts within minutes. We will definitely return. This historic Pasadena home was a charming holiday gathering place for my family. The large kitchen and formal dining rooms were perfect — roomy for the preparation of large meals (5 cooks) and the beautifully decorated dining room made for great Thanksgiving photos. The joys of a nightly wood-burning fireplace with our family sipping hot cocoa topped off our cozy evenings. The stunning gardens filled with flowering roses, azaleas and geraniums complete with gorgeous moutain views were so relaxing in this peaceful community. We could not have enjoyed a nicer family holiday — thank you Charles
