Other Things to Note:

UTILITIES:
For reservations of 28 nights or longer, a non-refundable utilities fee is required and is due prior to check-in. This fee helps cover electricity, natural gas, water, sewer, trash, and other utility-related operating costs.

The utilities fee is based on seasonal usage and property size and ranges from $35–$55 per day (excluding pool and spa heating). The exact amount will be determined based on the season and length of stay.
If you would like to add unlimited pool and/or spa heating for the duration of your stay, the additional utility fees are:
Pool Heating: $59 per day
Spa Heating: $39 per day

On-Demand Heating:
For guests who only wish to use the pool or spa occasionally, on-demand heating may be available upon request and is subject to availability. Please contact us in advance to arrange heating.

Pool & Spa Heating Options (SHORT TERM STAYS):
All pool and spa heating requests must be arranged and paid prior to use and are subject to availability and scheduling. The pool/spa heating fee is non-refundable, as we have to schedule and activate the heating system in advance.

Pool Heating: $150 per day
Minimum: 3 days
Guests who choose pool heating will also receive spa heating at no additional charge.
Please note that the pool requires approximately one full day to heat, so heating requests must be made in advance to ensure the pool is ready for your arrival.

Spa Heating Only (On-Demand): $55 per session
Each session includes up to 4 consecutive hours of spa heating.

Please Note: Our pool is professionally cleaned and serviced on a regular schedule. Because it is an outdoor pool, it is normal for a few leaves or small debris to fall into the water between cleanings, especially during windy weather. This does not mean the pool is dirty. We do our best to keep it in excellent condition so you can enjoy your stay.

BBQ:
The home is equipped with a BBQ grill and propane tank(s). We provide the tanks, but they may need to be refilled during your stay. If you'd like our team to deliver and install a full propane tank, the fee is $69 per tank. Please let us know before your arrival if you'd like us to arrange this. Alternatively, you are welcome to refill the tank yourself at a nearby propane refill station or exchange location, paying only the cost of the propane.

Pets:
This home is pet friendly and there is a $250 pet cleaning fee. This fee is per pet.

Outdoor Bugs
It’s normal to occasionally see bugs outdoors, especially during warmer months. We have regular pest control service, but to help prevent bugs from entering the home, please keep doors and windows closed when not in use.

Mobility ramps are available for step-free access free of charge. Please let us know if you will be needing them prior to your arrival.

Important Note for Late or Last-Minute Bookings:
Thank you for your reservation! Please note that for bookings made after 4 PM or for same-day arrivals, we may not always have time to fully refresh the property before your check-in, depending on the timing of your reservation.
If you notice anything that needs attention upon arrival, please don’t hesitate to message us — we’re happy to send someone out the next day to take care of it. Your comfort is our priority, and we’ll do our best to ensure you have a great stay.

Overall our stay was genuinely fantastic for 9 of us it didn't feel like we were in each others way even our mom in a mobile chair was able to freely enter & exit the bathroom no problem • Communication with Katy was easy any small questions or issues we had she helped with promptly she is so sweet and definitely made the stay go smoothly •we only used the spa and it felt wonderful! •all the beds were comfortable the pull out couch in the master was tried once but the kid didn't like it •While the area seems a bit suspect Once you get inside the gate, you don't feel exposed to anything that you would feel unsafe with & in the house, you feel so secluded you forget where you are Honestly in my heart its 5 stars BUT the very few super miniscule quirks drop it to a 4.8 •the front door is...unique not as solid a door as you would hope there's a big window with a metal piece on the outside so when you close the door it shakes & makes noise also the way the window is tinted you can see in but can't see out so we had to cover the window with a blanket there was a small unnecessary chain lock that was broken but we felt secure with the main lock •the few issues I had with the spa was nothing on their end just user error on my part with the app if anything maybe have a bar to assist going in n out the spa •lastly some of the TV remotes were finicky the main downstairs Roku needed charging (micro USB fyi) The downstairs bedroom spectrum I re-coded to tv & changed the Roku batteries

We came to SoCal for a weekend trip. This house was more than big enough for our family of 6. The house was clean and had everything we needed. The street felt safe as it is gated. Some days were a little loud with the nearby airport. Other than that, it was great.
