Other Details to Note
Like most properties in this part of California, is in the hills and if you park on the street, you will park at an incline (see photo). Parking is in the driveway on the left side or across the street. The studio is NOT within walking distance of any restaurants or shopping (except for a small store at the end of the road) but Uber and LYFT are available if you don't have a car. It is about 5 miles from markets and restaurants. If you enjoy a morning walk or jog, then the hills will add a little extra vigor to your day. If you like to hike in the mountains, there are beautiful hiking trails close by. Stoney Point and Rocky Peak are nearby and have areas to hike and rock climb. If you take a walk up the street to the top of the street, you will usually see beautiful wild peacocks. The Village in Woodland Hills and the Commons in Calabasas (upscale outdoor shopping mall with restaurants) are close by. Porter Ranch also had many high-end restaurants with a beautiful outdoor area. Check-in is between 4:00 pm and 9:00 pm. Please message us if you plan to check in after 9 pm Check-out is anytime before 11:00 am. This studio is cozy and therefore intended primarily for a single traveler. A second guest can be accommodated for a small fee – please ensure your reservation is accurate for how many guests will be staying. We are available during your stay for most needs and we strive to make sure your stay is 5-star worthy. Please let us know if anything is needed during your stay. This home is on septic, so nothing may be flushed down the toilet other than toilet paper. Additional Rules Please use the app to check in. If you have questions or if I left something out, let me know. Please make sure you have your photo in your profile to book and that you book with the correct number of people. It is a small unit, so if there are 2 of you, please be aware of that. NO PARTIES OR EVENTS WHATSOEVER. We have a ring security camera on-site and can see if people outside your group come to the house. This will result in an IMMEDIATE cancellation of your reservation with NO refund. There are NO cameras inside the property. We run on septic. Please only flush toilet paper and NOTHING else. If the septic clogs during your stay, a fee will be assessed to have a plumber come and make repairs. (Our guests have all been good about this and we have never had to call a plumber during a stay.) The septic is sensitive and we are in a drout, so please conserve water and limit washing clothes to 2 loads a day, a few hours apart to avoid overloading the system. No smoking inside I do ask that you straighten up before you leave but I don't have any hard rules where you must do cleaning or "chores". The unit is professionally cleaned in between guests but we appreciate a respectful guest. We ask you to do your dishes before you leave but if you leave a dirty dish or coffee cup as you are leaving we understand.

Neighborhood
This home is in the hills and even though there is a little market down the street, the closest major market/ shopping center is over 4 miles away. I have received less than 5 star reviews for the location, so please book this if you like the idea of being out of the way and realize it will be at least a 10 minute drive to get into town. The neighborhood is in the hills of Lake Manor - Chatsworth on quiet residential street. There is a washer and dryer in the unit you can use. The parking is in the street, across the street from the house or where ever there is an open spot. You may have to park up or down the hill and walk if there is not an open space rights there. The side of the street where the house is, is no parking. The street is a little narrow and you will be on a slight hill. You can see a photo of where you'll park. If you walk up the street to the top of the hill, you will most likely see beautiful wild peacocks. Sometimes the peacocks are noisy (they kind of sound like cats). You will not usually hear them when you're inside with the door closed, but if it's too noisy, there are ear plugs in the bathroom. I've only had one guest even mention this, but I want to make sure to disclose every detail I can think of or that has been brought to my attention. Brian and Scott live in the main house and are both very nice. You may see them in the common areas outside.
