    This is such a grand property! I think of it as a mini Hearst Castle. My aunts loved the trails on the property so they can get their exercise in, while enjoying the garden. It seems like there’s so much to explore inside the home and outside the home. I enjoy relaxing by the pool and listening to the sound of birds chirping. The guest house was perfect for family who wanted more privacy. We all wish we had more time to enjoy the property. The host even gave us some local wine to enjoy!

    All I can say is WOW! What an amazing home. I felt like I was on a set of the Mad Men. The home was beautiful, the grounds were stunning. The beds were comfortable. We had the best time and loved waking in the morning and taking a walk and exploring all the plants. Just so beautiful. Our last night we got to watch a mamma raccoon and her 4 babies walk around the pool. Just so cool.

    The stunning beauty of this property exceeded our expectations. We came here for a family holiday and used the property as a home base while touring California. While the attractions were fun, the real entertainment was this property. Equipped with everything we could need, it was well stocked with amenities, utensils, basic toiletries, kids items, plenty seating and toys/games that us and our kids took advantage of on cooler days. But beyond that, just to admire and explore these beautiful grounds was incredible.The host went above and beyond and was exceptional in their communication and took care of any need. Even to the point of checking the weather prior to our stay and inquiring if we’d still like the pool heated on the rainy days (how thoughtful!). And on that note: we absolutely loved every minute we had in the pool!Thank you for hosting our family here for the week. We feel very grateful for the memories we were able to create here!

    Our group of seven friends had our reunion at the Emerald Bungalow for a second time because this place is perfect for our group. We especially appreciated Addy's quick and helpful responses to our questions along the way (heating the pool in advance of our stay, checking in a little early, replacing the firepit propane tank). We'll certainly come back for another reunion.

    The home and property was perfect for our extended family to stay together in one place. The main part of the home is all in one level, after a flight of outside stairs from the parking area. The office, in the downstairs of the home, is reached by a flight of interior stairs. The guest house is located downstairs from the home, level with the parking area and has access to an outside bathroom a short distance by climbing upstairs towards the main house. Beds were comfortable and we would return again. The pool was a highlight!!

    It was a a wonderful family vacation. On drawback was the difficulty of using the bath in the master suite. It was not comfortable and dangerous to those over eighty.
