PERFECT property AMAZING Hosts FANTASTIC communications between us and Hosts

I’ve rented many properties using VRBO. I have my own property that I rent out. This property and the Hosts Linda & Steve are first class and truly care about us renters and their property. Linda & Steve are the best. Their property is perfect and fully stocked with all that you need to live just like you’d live at home. Even things like sugar, coffee, tea, peanut butter, tons and tons of spices, avocado oil, etc. were all there for you to use. Any questions or concerns I had were replied to promptly, kindly and completely. - Pleasant safe quiet street. - Great propane BBQ with an extra tank so you never run out- Great washer and dryer - Bedrooms and beds are all super comfy- AC and Heat systems in livingroom and all bedrooms and all work well- AWESOME gas stove in kitchen - A great touch to have a printer available - Free roadside parking is wonderful and we always could park in front or next doorThey even made sure we had a full ice cube bucket in the freezer which has an ice maker that works perfectly. There is nothing that doesn’t work 100% All just felt like we were at home. I didn’t want to leave. Only 1 thing to be critical of and it’s so super small. They really should invest in a new 4-slice toaster. Currently there is only a 2-slice older toaster where you have to push the toast down to get all of the bread into the toaster. 60 and this place is a 50/50 star. Currently I rate it at 49.9999 out of 50 stars. THANK YOU so much Linda & Steve

From Washington

The house was everything we needed. Location of the property to all of the outings we had planned was perfect. There was coffee left in the coffee pot when we arrived. The floors creak quite loudly down the hallway which woke members of our party that slept in later than others, but given its an older house we couldnt give the property a bad rating. It also had a smell of an older home. Like walking into "grandmas house." It was very comfortable and the space was perfect for our party of 6 with ages ranging from mid 40's to a 4 years old.

Family Vacation 2023

We found this house as cute and cozy as it’s descriptions listed online. There was everything we needed in the house to make our stay comfortable. We were in LA to visit other family that live in the area. The house was located close enough to family and the beach (my favorite part of the trip). This is a lovely place and we will definitely be back.

Awesome stay. It is a home away from home. I brought my wife and dog down and we could not have been more comfortable. I hope to stay at this property again.

Host profile image
We are Steve Butterfield and Linda Braue and we welcome you to our home in Torrance, CA. It’s an easy walk to Old Town where you’ll find us enjoying a great meal at one of the many restaurants located here or walking to Wilson Park on a Tuesday or Saturday morning for the fabulous Farmer’s Market.

We both love to be outdoors and Torrance is close to some of the best beaches in southern California, as well as amazing hikes in neighborhoods or mountains close by.

We relish sports and take advantage of all that southern California offers with football, soccer, basketball and baseball all within close distance to us. And you will also find us at some of the best museums in the world or taking delight in a concert at the Hollywood Bowl. We grab a bus from Wilson Park for the trip to the Hollywood Bowl, so we don’t have to worry about driving or parking.

We welcome you to take advantage of all that Torrance has to offer and we hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
