Lovely home with all we needed

We loved out short stay that allowed us close proximity to Chapman University for homecoming and a space to relax in the evenings with a glass of wine in the outdoor patio. Katie as such a gracious host. Gem of a find for our family of 4. Tranquil and quite.

Nice stay in Orange!

We really enjoyed staying in the apartment beside Katie's home! It's a lovely place - very comfortable! My only disappointment was that a hot tub was advertised on the VRBO site, but it didn't exist. Katie refunded us $100 and said she will update that on the site. Their backyard pool isn't heated, so it was too cool to use it without a hot tub in the fall. Katie was very nice.

Lovely stay in Orange

Katie and John offered us this apartment while visiting family nearby. The location was perfect and the apartment was very comfortable and spacious for three of us. There is a lovely deck with a table for breakfast, and their unheated pool was just right in the hot weather and generously shared by the hosts, with a large variety of pool accessories. The apartment was well furnished and had many of the little things that other apartments lack (adequate towels and pool towels, plenty of toiletries, full refrigerator and stove, microwave and dishwasher, ceiling fans, etc.) Very enjoyable stay and would gladly stay there again. Thanks, Katie and John!

Great location and accommodations. We thought the pool would be private. We didn't realize it was in front of the main house's living room so we didn't use it as the main house was occupied. Parking was off the street which was great.

Had a great time in the retreat at Goose Hollow

Even though we had challenges in finding the place late in the night because of my phone not working properly, Katie helped us out locate the place quickly. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the retreat at Goose Hollow. It's a really nice and cozy place to stay which is quite close to DisneyLand. A nice perk of staying at the place was that the kitchen was super equipped!

So wonderful! Relaxing and cozy.

This was a wonderful and relaxing stay. Our family came down to go to Disneyland and we were so happy to have found The Retreat at Goose Hollow. Katie was a wonderful host and was so accommodating to our family. My boys loved staying at “the little house”. We will definitely stay here next time we are in the area. Thank you Katie!

All of the comforts you could ask for and so close to Disney!

I flew out to California from NJ to meet up with my 19 year old son who is currently a Marine stationed at Camp Pendleton. My son was a huge Disney Cars fan as a child and he wanted to visit Disney California Adventure Park during my visit on the west coast. He had one request which was to stay somewhere that had a pool, so I found this place on VRBO and booked it for a weekend. We couldn’t have picked a better place! All of the comforts of home, a beautiful pool and the most gracious of hosts who went above and beyond to create a memorable stay for both of us. Thank you for that! ❤️ Would highly recommend your place to any body!

Great location, great property, great host

3 of us stayed to visit family. Very clean, very quiet, and very comfortable - but also conveniently located near grocery and main streets. Google Maps is wrong - pay attention to the street address, but that was the worst thing that happened to us the whole time and Katie was right on it. We didn’t use the pool but it looked really nice. Easy, convenient off-street parking too.

Lovely stay

Loved this VRBO! Such a cute place and a great location. Katie the host was very communicative and friendly with me before and during our stay and got back to me quickly if I had a question. We were provided everything we needed, and located right across a grocery store. Highly recommend, I’d readily stay here again! P.S. highly recommend Lucky’s Thai Pantry around the corner, especially the crab fried rice!! Please try it if you stay here

I would definitely stay here again. It was clean and quiet, two things that are very important on a Disney vacation! The owner was very nice, and even came outside at night to help us find the house upon our late arrival.
