We had a really great time. The pool area was very nice and secluded. It felt perfectly private and relaxing. Hot tub was a nice touch. The casita had all the amenities we needed. Town is just a couple minutes away, and there are plenty of nice places to eat.

Wonderful setting, inspiring architecture, spectacular pool and surroundings. I hope this mid-century house and casita (where guests stay) will be preserved for future generations. We've lost too many mid-century/1970s buildings. It was a privilege staying here.

We loved staying here! The size was perfect for the two of us and the setting and scenery was spectacular! TV worked great which was important for us to be able to watch March Madness basketball. GO BLUE! We loved all the outdoor metal flowers/animals and always seemed to spot something we hadn’t seen before. The location is centrally located and close to many amazing trails for hiking, restaurants and shopping. Katharine was a great host and always let us know when she would be stopping home. We ran out of time to go on the boat but we will definitely be back and take her up on the offer. Highly recommend staying here if you want something unique and memorable!

Katherine was very helpful and welcoming. The casita was easy to find and had everything we needed. The view was amazing, especially at night - which you’re not going to experience staying at the local hotels.
