Beautiful home, amazing location!
Took our family on vacation for first time in California and could not be happier to have found this place! It’s in the center of all we wanted to do so it was perfect. The house was incredible. Even better than the pictures. Super clean, decorations were lovely, it had everything we needed and more. The hosts were very communicative and responsive. Gave awesome recommendations for dinner, etc. They definitely went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable and we could not be more appreciative! Highly recommend

Picture perfect
Staying in this home is so comfortable! We stayed for 8 nights. The home has the most comfortable beds and many great spaces to curl up with a book. A charming backyard and front porch. A kitchen stocked with high quality appliances and cookware. The pictures represent the listing perfectly. The neighborhood is cute and conveniently appointed. You will not regret this booking! The communication was great with owners as well and they even sent over an outdoor mist fan which was perfect for the summer heat when enjoying the backyard. We will definitely book again on our next visit.

I took a family of four (two adults and two teenagers) and this house was perfect. The teenagers had their own rooms and bathrooms, which made the trip much more enjoyable. I think it's rare to such a good space configuration in LA, especially in a rental.Relatedly, the attention to detail and level of furnishing in the owner's remodel is outstanding. We've rented a lot and this house really shows care and love. I was honestly shocked at how nice the kitchen is. Communication with Terry is excellent and she is a very gracious host.I can't say enough about the neighborhood. If you are thinking about staying for tourism at Universal, Beverly Hills, Hollywood, this location is great: very easy to get to the highways or the canyon roads to Beverly Hills.This neighborhood is extremely walkable. We walked to Whole Foods, Ralphs, Erewhon, local coffee shops, restaurants.Finally, the back yard - amazing. You will not want to leave.

We had the best stay at Terry's property! Communication was excellent from start to finish. Nothing seemed to be any trouble for these wonderful hosts and the house is fitted out with the highest standard of fixtures and fittings. The interior is beautiful, the neighbour hood idyllic. I would stay here time and time again. Thank you so much for an amazing stay

Great Place to Stay
10/10We thoroughly enjoyed Terry and Dave’s Studio City home. It provided ample space for my husband, myself and our twenty something daughter to reunite and visit with my brother and sister-in-law after not seeing each other for several years. The layout allowed for lots of privacy for our two families, and warm inviting spaces to hang out when we wanted to be together. The home is beautifully appointed with modern finishes and amenities, and the hosts were super responsive when we had questions. When my daughter wanted to play the piano and we couldn’t remove the keyboard cover, Terry had her piano tuner there in under an hour to fix it! The home is in a great area, super-accessible for things we wanted to do around LA, with easy access to the 101 and 405 freeways, as well as the Canyons, (Coldwater, Laurel and Beverly Glen). The proximity to Whole Foods, Ralph’s, Gino’s East Pizza, Hugo’s and Hugo’s Tacos made figuring out meals a breeze. We also appreciated the extra touches, like night lights in every room, fresh fruit and flowers in the kitchen/dining area, and the workout room with a Peloton. Really comfy beds too! The yard was beautiful and relaxing for meals and chatting. It couldn’t have been more perfect.
