Very pleasant quiet apartment with a view in Glendale. We stayed 4 nights, and happened to arrive during a heat wave -- happy to report that the apartment AC was working fine. Central location allowed us to explore Getty Museum, Griffith planetarium, and family in Ontario. Plenty of good local restaurants nearby. Thank you to Craig and Barbra for the lovely accommodations!

My wife and I have stayed in several . This is by far the best place we’ve ever stayed in. The location is magnificent grocery stores within a mile 15 minutes to Dodger Stadium. We went three days in a row. The kitchen is totally stocked with everything you would need to cook contacting and communicating with the host is very easy and the cleanliness in the place absolutely magnificent if you could give 10 stars I would give 10 stars

Cozy and spacious inside, with comfortable furniture, basic appliances, and everything you need thoughtfully supplied. It's old-fashioned, aesthetically, with the vibe of a country cabin, not fancy. Outside is, as the listing says, spectacular-- view, pond and fountains, decor, greenery, lighting, seating. Located on the ground floor of a house in a peaceful and pretty neighborhood, with private back yard entrance and dedicated off street parking spot, so I felt very safe given that I was travelling alone. I told the hosts- who responded instantly and kindly to questions--I'd be back. I might just move in for awhile!

Like a little piece of heaven in the middle of Glendale - from beginning to end, the stay was amazing.We were coming into the area for a friend’s wedding and I was not happy with price/location of hotels I was finding. A friend suggested VRBO and this was the first listing for my timeframe. It was a perfect location and a perfect stay. The hosts were communicative, nice, and helpful. The rental was a good size for our needs and clean and quirky. The real selling point was the outdoor space, which defies description but paradise might encapsulate it. I would 1000% stay here again.
