Great property - have stayed there many times!
This is a great base for a visit to LA/Venice. There is so much to do, literally on your doorstep, and the house is well appointed and comfortable. I'd also recommend Carol as a host.
My wife and I enjoyed our stay in Venice: amazing location nice cottage on the canal, perfect for 2, great amenities, perfectly maintained and clean
I cannot say a single negative thing about the entire experience. The home was indeed beautiful (wife fell in love with it instantly) and the deck view was a highlight. You'll have tourists walking right past the deck during the day (the Venice canal area is an attraction), but that wasn't a problem at all. It was great that the Venice Beach area was so close (10 min walk), but in this home you felt miles away. We used the bikes to travel to Santa Monica (easy ride up the boardwalk), Marina Del Rey, Abbott Kinney Blvd and around Venice to explore. We typically walked to dinner (check out James' Beach). We would stay here again, highly recommend!
Our family (2 adults and 2 teenagers) had 6 nights in the canal home and it was a fantastic accommodation to relax and refresh just meters away from the action. Sitting on the deck was a daily please as was taking to the canals in the row boat. The canals is a surprising oasis and we were lucky to be there for the July 4th holiday where the local community get together and celebrate. There was lots of activity with the highlight being a Rubber Duck Race done the canal opposite the property. Just a tip - colour your duck a differently so you know it's yours. The cottage was very clean, with a relaxing seaside vibe. It has everything you need including a full kitchen, handy when you are over takeaway or going out. We also loved the bikes and rode the boardwalk to Santa Monica Pier. Thanks for having us, hopefully we come past again one day! Stuart Melbourne, Australia
Lots of natural light, comfortable couches and bed, a really nice space to hang out. Would come here again.
Carol's house is nicely appointed, beautifully located, and comfortable. It was a pleasure to sit on the sofa with a drink, as a cool breeze wafted through the house. Nearby, there were many fine places to eat. We ate at James Beach, two blocks away. There, my wife's celebrity radar picked up Jimmy Smits eating two tables away. Made her trip.
Our family of 4 had a great time staying at this cottage. It's very comfortable and clean, bright and sunny during the day, and quiet at night. The beach is just a couple blocks away, and there are lots of good places to eat within walking distance. Our daughters also had a really fun time paddling the boat through the canals! Carol, the owner, is super friendly and very responsive. We hope to come back!
This is the perfect cottage to rent if you want to be right on the canal and take in all the scenery. The owner, Carol, is very attentive and always available if you needed anything. Would highly recommend!
Carol's place is really great and I'd gladly recommend it. We stayed over Christmas, which can be chilly at night, and the house is very warm and comfortable and is well equipped. It is nicely decorated, has a great view over the canals and is well located close to the beach and Abbot Kinney. All in all, we'd stay here again.
