Perfect little home away from home!
My family and i arrived much earlier than the allowed check in time, we wanted to make the most of our trip. We were provided with a safe place to leave our belongings until our check in time, meanwhile we explored the town. Unfortunately due to unforseen weather conditions, we were forced to extend our stay an extra night. Michael was very helpful in extending our stay and even applied a discount. My family and i enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again.

Great location
The house was very clean and had lots of extras like plenty of towels, soap, shampoo, coffee, etc. It only had a small space heater, so a little cold at night in December. Lots of blankets, though. We only used the queen size bed and it was good. Some noise from the street. Very friendly and helpful check in/check out experience. We would stay again!

Nice stay in Avalon
This house is quaint and in a great location, within walking distance to both Vons and shopping/restaurants. It is a bit dated inside but the front porch is great. The neighbors were all nice. Michael was a very good landlord and reached out in case we were coming over early or staying later.
