Great spot - awesome amenities, perfect for hosting a group of friends. Host very responsive and helpful. Would highly recommend for anyone hosting a group of people. I liked the shakers, bottle openers, the games, and the folding tables. All were great!

torn mattress in the backyard, the whole lawn is full of mole holes, the trees are dry and there are many large dry sticks that have fallen and no one has cleaned them up, beer bottles and garbage. It's just an abandoned house. The broom that is buried under the leaves has been lying there for about half a year, I think. Trees looks like after fires and you don’t know when fall at your had !

The property is not as advertised. Tired, unclean, and their pictures do not represent the actual condition. We tried to work with the owner and they were bot willing in any way to help. We did not spend a single night there. Complete waste and disappointment. Makes platforms like VRBO vulnerable to losing credibility. I highly recommend you do not rent this property.

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
This property was nothing like the photos—which are at least 10 years old, if not more—filthy, poorly maintained, and full of broken items (old BBQs, stained couches, broken chairs). I had to ask many times for check-in and check-out instructions. The host keeps asking for extra money and, when questioned, promises a refund later. Communication is terrible and often takes days to respond. Every other review with concerns is accurate, while the 10/10 reviews have no pictures or explanations, which seems suspicious. The host is dishonest, dismisses guest concerns, and even tried to file a false insurance claim. This felt like a scam—avoid this property.

Photos of listing are not accurate. Photos show a much nicer cleaner house and yard. House and yard are cluttered with excessive furniture. House grounds are not kept up. Counted 6 grilled in and around the yard with only one being functional. Carpets, drapes, walls, furniture are stained. Closets are cluttered with sheets and blankets and just random “stuff” all around the house. Open boxes and containers of food in kitchen and fridge. House could use some TLC for the price. House is about 30-40 minute drive to Hollywood and LA. Neighborhood was quite but road the house is on does get busy in morning and afternoon. Plenty of parking. Bedrooms were adequate.House served its purpose, but would look for a different place closer to the city next time even if it cost a few hundred more.

Pictures not accurate of proprty

Yi was responsive and communicated well during our stay. The beds were comfortable, but the state of the property was not ask shown in the listing pictures. Too much excess furniture, a lot of stuff in the kitchen (inc food), minimum basics of a studio kitchen not included, random stuff packed in the drawers/cubbards/counters and the yard was not maintained (weeds vs lawn, 3 BBQs in various stages of decay and a collection of patio tables). For charging a cleaning fee the kitchen floor on arrival was dirty (kept my shoes on the whole time) and overall the house was in need of R&M (tiles missing on the kitchen countertop) and a deep clean. The location was great for our family but disappointed in the reality vs photos in the listing for the price.

Woodland Hills Get A Way

Woodland Hills is a beautiful location. This house is suitable for large groups with children and pets. The back yard is huge and house is roomy. We only had 5 adults so lots of room for us. Great kitchen.

Nice space, great backyard, great owner

The home has plenty of space and a beautiful backyard, which is what I was looking for. I had everything I needed. Also, I accidentally left some valuables at the property, and the owner was kind enough to find them and mail them back to me. I very much appreciate it! Would stay again for sure.

Clean, Spacious and Comfortable home with a Communicative host

I stayed at this property with some friends last weekend. In the days leading up to our stay, Yi was very responsive, and more than happy to answer any questions I had. Our check in process could not have been easier, and upon arrival the home was just as clean and spacious as it looks in the photos. We greatly appreciated the small touches such as coffee and a snack bowl. The backyard is huge and the perfect place to share a meal or just relax. I would stay here again anytime I am in the area!

Great place for a small gathering

Great place for a small gathering. Plenty of beds and nice living room spaces for chatting and talking. The interior of the house was older and perhaps in need of some upkeep and not as pictured. It was a little hard to get in touch with the host before the stay, but Yi was very responsive during the stay. The backyard could use some upkeep and is not as pictured in the listing. The organization of the furniture is also not as pictured. For the price point, I wish the house looked more like what was pictured on the Vrbo website. But it served its purpose.

Slow, poor communication almost lead to a disaster.

The property itself was as described, but pretty messy with stuff all around. We mainly cared about using the backyard for a short after wedding sendoff. We described how we wanted to use the property, but the Host seemed confused and tried to add big fees, imply we could not have a small fire, etc. Working with the hose was very stressful.
