We thoroughly enjoyed our stay celebrating my husbands 80th birthday with our family.

We stayed for two nights. The house is fully stocked, lots of dishes, glasses, pots and pans etc. Everything we needed to cook breakfast, lunch and dinner. The rooms were comfortable. It was super handy to have a golfcart to use while we were there. We were close to down town another plus. We would love to stay here again!

Check-in was very easy with a code. Kitchen was good. Lots of pots and pans for cooking. The gas grill was nice too. Wi-Fi access was good and the golf cart that was provided made a huge difference in the stay. In town rentals were very expensive so having a golf cart provided made the stay so much better. The property location was close to everything grocery store and restaurants. I would stay here again!

Super Spacious and Great Location

Wow, such a big home! Room for everyone to spread out and have their own space and privacy both inside and out. Most bedrooms are downstairs and there's a main floor master bedroom. Lovely place for our famiy's getaway. The golf cart was super handy for those in our group who had a hard time walking on hills. Explore Catalina to the fullest in this centrally located home.

The property was great. It was charming and had all the amenities that are perfect for a family to stay at. Like most properties on the island, these houses tend to be on the older and dated side, but no knock on it - this was fully expected. The golf cart is a plus since this was beneficial in helping us navigate the uphill to get to the property, in addition to being able to go to the groceries store with ease. Overall, a great property with a lot of space and great lighting. Plenty of outdoor areas. Area is a bit off from the bars/restaurants, but it was not a problem to reach with the golf cart. The only issue, which is most likely not the property's fault is that when we arrived the trash cans were filled to the brim with cans pouring out of it, most likely from a previous renter. What we realized upon entering the property, however, and reading about the island's trash policy was that trash doesn't get picked up until Tuesday mornings (which we had checked in on a Sunday so it was a bit jarring when we first arrived). Overall, great property.

The property was very nice it accommodated our family we had 7 adults and 3 pre-teens. One thing would be nice is to have more towels something to think about with that many people. We were very comfortable in this property. We had a wonderful time, and the accommodation help tremendously. Thank you for letting us stay.

Loved our stay

Stayed with some friends over the weekend and had a great time. Very spacious, somewhat older house but still very beautiful and homey. Easy check in and easy to use the golf cart and everything else. Our only complaint was it does get warm even mid september with no AC. They provided fans which was great but something to think about if staying in summer months. Besides that it was a great stay!
