Three generations enjoyed a wonderful girls getaway at the Shack on the Hill. This large house is full of delightful surprises and the pool and gardens are perfect for relaxing together. Wayne and Nina made us feel welcome and took care of all our needs. We will be back.

The Shack on The Hill is everything as shown on the VRBO listing, and then some. The place is Eclectic, my family and the teens were engaged the entire time. This could easily be a movie set or place at Disneyland. And it’s located where views of the area are pretty relaxing 😎 Great Thanksgiving time away

Nice Place
The area is nice and beautiful. The views are amazing and the house is wonderful. The pool was extremely cold which made it difficult to swim. Also, some of the burners on the stove were not functioning making cooking inside a bit tricky. Overall, a very nice place that I would consider stayig at again.

Incredible property!
Hands down one of the coolest and unique properties you will ever encounter. Many cool features and the flow of the home is very well thought out. Here’s our experience: First stepping in the house, you’ll feel how much space there actually is. The floors are well maintained, clean and warm and the home smells pretty great! The sound system works for indoor and outdoors The kitchen is large with a reverse osmosis water drinking system. Plenty of pots, pans and dishware. Plenty of prep space for food. The stove top knobs are a bit difficult to turn, but once you figure them out they’re fairly easy to work with. there’s alot of space in the living room and bar. The outdoor space is incredible with a gas fire place that we utililized at nighttime. Hot tub is great! Unfortunately, pool isn’t heated but wouldn’t be a problem during summer heat. The outlook area is a great place to spend some quiet time. Upstairs bedrooms are great! All beds are comfy and clean. There are extra beds in 2 of the bedrooms that are not shown in the pics. Really unique features upstairs with some pirates hanging around. Overall, this is an incredible space with well thought out aesthetics and flow. Communication with owners are easy. Don’t pass up on this property!

Unique Property Worth A Stay
Overall we had an excellent stay. The house is eclectic in a great way. From the jukebox to the football table to the pirate hanging from the ceiling. Had some minor needs along the way. Wayne was super attentive and helpful filling those needs. absolutely would stay again.

Really unique experience
Loved this property. We had three families and our trip was really amazing. The house is well equipped with everything and the pictures probably don't do justice to the stay experience. Wayne the house manager was amazing with the house tour. Nina, the new owner reached out to check on us and responded promptly to any of our queries. Already shared the listing with so many of our friends
