    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the ranch by the bay. The location is perfect for getting around and seeing everything the area has to offer. We hit Fontana beach and Lake Como as well as the LG area. The home is well thought out and extremely organized. From the hot tub and fire pit to the bikes and beach toys, our entire family had a great time! Thank you Jessica for an amazing week!

    Absolutely perfect. This was the best place for our four generation family vacation. The house is extremely clean, well stocked with everything we needed. My grandson loved the bunk beds, garage full of toys but most of all the scooters. He loved riding the scooters while we walked to the Green Grocery for coffee each morning. Passes to the public beach were included. Beach chairs and toys were available. The host was accommodating and replied within 24 hours to all questions and messages. We will be staying here again. It couldn’t have been more perfect. Our favorites from the trip Location and walk ability, we walked to dinner, the beach and the shoreline. Highly recommend.

    The property is very clean and well laid-out. Everyone enjoyed the hot tub and watching movies on the big screen TV. Everyone also enjoyed the seating and extra eating areas. Overall it was a wonderful time.
