Heather’s space is extremely special. To stay in this home up in the soft tree tops among the iconic Silverlake Reservoir Meadow is a real treat. I lived close to this neighborhood 10 years ago and the house made me feel like I was home again, but in a clean, mid century modern STAR of a home. My kids and I utilized Heather’s home as a BASE to and fro so many cool adventures with friends. Take a walk around the reservoir, lay on a blanket in the meadow and then pop over to some convenient shops/restaurants. Would definitely stay again, I felt like a Movie Star there ;)

Perfect vacation spot!!! I was just in Los Angeles for the weekend along with 3 other friends and this location was a great stay for all of us. The location of the house makes it easy to get to around LA without having to worry about the traffic as much. Heather was a great host, responding to text messages and even advising myself of any forgotten items we had left. Overall, the house is great, the neighborhood is nice and quiet at all times of the day.

What an amazing host Heather is and the home was a perfect location for me and my son. A staycation for him, a close location for work!!! Charming home, lots of character and had everything we could need for our four not stay. Heather also allowed us to have a late check out which was awesome, we didn’t have to rush out. 10/10, highly recommend. 😊
