Perfect location for our family holiday gathering

This house had everything we needed for the "overflow" family members gathering in Encino for an early Christmas. The location was ideal and communication with the property manager was excellent. Beds were very comfortable and the shower (nearest the kitchen) was particularly great.

Well-kept house with great back yard

We had my son and daughter-in-law's baby shower here. It's a great house for a party b/c it has a large and inviting back yard. The beds are comfortable and the kitchen well-stocked. The only drawback is that there are mosquitoes, so bring along Deet or another insect repellant.

Very nice stay in Encino!

Patrick is a very responsive host, and answers all questions promptly. The Encino house is comfortable, and in a very nice and quiet neighborhood. Good kitchen appliances, and a good washer and dryer. The beds were very comfortable, and the layout of the house worked well for our four adult family members. Having the den as additional space (we didn't use it as a bedroom) was also a very nice feature for us. Check-in was very easy, and Patrick provided clear instructions before we arrived. Plenty of parking space for our two rental cars, which was an added bonus! Thanks, Patrick! We enjoyed our stay!
