We had a wonderful stay at this home. It’s a lovely, comfortable house in a quiet neighborhood, and it’s clear the host has put a lot of care into making it welcoming for guests. The home was very clean, well maintained, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay.The location was excellent and very central to restaurants and shops, many of which were within walking distance. One of the nice surprises was that the home is also within walking distance of a pop-up farmers market where the streets are closed off and vendors set up booths. If you happen to be there when it’s happening, it’s a fun experience and a nice bonus to the location.Overall, this was a fantastic place to stay and we truly appreciated the host sharing their home with us. We would absolutely stay here again if we return to the area.

We stayed at this residence over Christmas. We relocated out of so cal but have family in Long Beach, Orange County, and Covina. So this location made it easy to do our vista across many cities. This house is very spacious. Bedrooms are ample in size, beds are very comfy, but the large kitchen and living area were our favorite. Comfy couches & all the kitchen item you need to cook or cha over coffee. The hosts were so responsive. There were no unanswered inquiries and they were a delight to deal with. This house is a block away from Uptown Whittier Main Street with small shots and many great restaurants. Home was clean and I had to mention again, very spacious!

We had rented this property for one week to accommodate our out-of-town work colleagues. The house was clean, comfortable, and spacious. Perfect location, walking distance to Uptown Whittier, which has many great shops and restaurants. We will use this home again the next time our team is in town.
