Beautiful home
One of the cleanest VRBO rentals I have ever stayed at. There have been more than a few that i have walked in and said "the pictures make it look a lot nicer than it is." Not this one, it is great. Another VRBO first. The owner sent me a video virtual tour including how to use the TV remotes. Have a family putting contest while making real popcorn in the circus popcorn popper. We didn't use the outside firepit but i am sure enjoying cocktails around the fire while the streaks are cooking on the grill is a big hit. Since we come to Venice regularly to visit family, we'll be back!

About the host
Hosted by Heather Paquette
My husband Paul and I absolutely love all that Venice has to offer. Paul was born and raised in Venice and knows all of the best local restaurants, shops and hidden gems! We are happy to share our home with you and want you to feel comfortable and relaxed during your stay.
Why they chose this property
We love the proximity to the bike trail, Venice Ave and Caspersen Beach. It’s an easy walk or short drive to so many shops and restaurants that it makes the house very enjoyable. We also love the quiet setting of the neighborhood and great people!
What makes this property unique
Our property stands out as it contains character with our decor and amenities and is not just your cookie cutter rental. Inside we have a comfortable open setting with a record player, mini putting green and popcorn maker. The dining room table provides a perfect space to set up a laptop for work. The bedrooms are bright and very comfortable. Outside the fully fenced backyard has many lush native plants, including an avocado tree. Our location is convenient to everything. One of my favorite amenities is that the trail is within walking distance. If you enjoy shark tooth hunting, Caspersen is only a bike ride away.
