This property was in a nice location within walking distance to the park, a duck pond, and an enclosed playground. All rooms were clean and nicely decorated. The property was pet-friendly with a small backyard. The check-in process, access to property and check-out process was simple. Communication with the property manager was exceptional.

Great host.

We had a very comfortable visit to Turlock at this property. The house is beautifully appointed and much larger than we had expected. The garden is particularly lovely. Most importantly, Jerry was so responsive to the particular circumstances of our visit and it was so very much appreciated!

Lovely Home Away From Home

This house was just lovely. We were so pleased to see a beautifully decorated tree and other decorations for Christmas. Part of our family lives in Merced and our granddaughter and son spent one night with us. It was ideal for us and our small fur-baby. Plenty of amenities for a home away from home feel. Jerry was quick to respond and very pleasant with regard to a question about the TV. Would love to stay here again when in the area. Thank you for your hospitality.

Wonderful House to Stay

We were in town for our son’s wedding at a nearby venue. This house was exactly as shown in the pictures and we had a wonderful time. The kitchen was very well stocked with everything we needed for cooking & baking and feeding a large family. The manager was very easy to communicate with as we had several questions before arriving. The house was very cool as the weather was in the upper 90’s we really appreciated the AC and all of the ceiling fans. I highly recommend this property and would definitely stay here again.

Good and enjoyable stay

I really appreciated the way Jerry worked with me on a couple of interests of our group. We had a glitch with one of the appliances. In the long run it didn't impact our stay; just an inconvenience.
