Ginger and Candace are wonderful hosts. They made us feel welcome and made sure we had everything we needed during our 2.5 week stay.We felt comfortable in the beautiful casita right away. It has everything one needs for an extended stay. The lovely outdoor spaces allow you to enjoy the hummingbirds and relax while still feeling private. We used the outdoor gas grill a lot!The neighborhood is quiet, with beautiful natural landscaping and the location great for accessing hiking trails.
