Casa De Norte: Your Hillside Oasis with Saltwater Pool & Spa
Casa De Norte is the perfect way to enjoy the indoor/outdoor lifestyle California is famous for!
-Poolside pergola offers a relaxing spot to enjoy the shaded outdoors & is accessible via sunroom, master bedroom & bunk bedroom.
-If you’d rather soak up some sun there’s 2 loungers ready for relaxing along with a dining table & umbrella for an al fresco lunch.
-Grab a book from the game room bookshelves & head out to the Queen bedroom hammock (one of our favorite spots) to enjoy a nap surrounded by the hillside & bird song.
-Binge your favorite shows from the sunroom sofa while easily keeping an eye & ear on those in the pool through many patio doors/windows. The Roku streaming devices make it easy to sign into your streaming accounts or home cable network.
*Pool towels are provided & the pergola coffee table holds a revolving selection of children's toys, arm floats, etc.
----NOTE----
*Door alarms are installed on bunk bedroom & sunroom patio doors to help prevent littles from accessing pool area without supervision (these can be switch off if u prefer). The bunk room patio door also has a childproof deadbolt system & the front door has a sliding child safety lock.
*Beach sand has a habit of clogging the pool filter so we kindly ask you make sure to rinse any toys out after the beach :)
—-FAMILY FUN——
-Full size billiard table off kitchen/dining
-Variety of board games, cards, books
-TV & DVD collection in the sunroom. Master bedroom and sunroom have Roku streaming with apps for all your subscriptions.
