Pasadena Prime Location & Beautiful Homr

Wonderful stay with friends visiting for a football game at the Rose Bowl. Incredible views and beautiful, classic Pasadena architectural home. The manager, Mimy, was a wonderful host. Full of knowledge of the area and on top of every question. Highly recommend this home!

Big and Beautiful

We really enjoyed our stay here, we had an event at the Rose Bowl and it just couldn't have been more conveniently located. The house is a gorgeous mix of heavy woods and old world charm and all the modern conveniences you need. Host was very available but didn't babysit us. We had a great time.

Amazing experience

I stayed at this property for my wedding weekend and it was absolutely fabulous. The place was beautiful and the host was so thoughtful. She was very accommodating by letting me check in early and even gave me stuff after the fact when I left it there by mistake. The home is gorgeous and was a great place to host my friends and my new husband. The host is very communicative and very responsive.

Great location - amazing views from the backyard

This house is beautiful and charming. You can’t beat the incredible views from the backyard. My kids loved running around the backyard. Overall, we had a great experience and the host was very responsive. We were only the second group to stay at the house so the amenities were somewhat lacking. I communicated this to the host and she was very appreciative of the feedback. I expect it will be even better for the next group.
