Summary: My group of 10, 6 adults and 2 kids and 2 babies, had a lovely family reunion here for three nights. The home was just as it was advertised: clean, well stocked for families, and lots of spaces with fun amenities. We really appreciated the kitchen that was well stocked with items for cooking all sorts of cuisines. We cooked 10 meals for a large group during our time here so we got a good sense of what was provided. The rooms were comfortable and well stocked with towels, blankets, pillows and other thoughtful touches that truly made it feel like you were staying with family. We greatly appreciated their baby storage closet with two copies (or more) of baby essentials - like portable cribs and high chairs. The check in and check out were super easy and the host was extremely prompt with responses. We have already talked as a family about coming back to this rental because of how great of a time we had. I think the only areas I could see being improved would be: adding portable baby gates to their supply closet to help block of the stairs to the media room, adding ziploc bags and other food storage containers for leftover storage, and maybe adding a running water feature to the backyard (little waterfall type thing) to help block the noise from the freeway that is near by. I know these are super random and truly did not demote our experience, but thought I would mention them for the hosts to get some kind of item to potentially improve on.
