Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
My extended family had an amazing time at RidgeTop Retreat. It was perfect for a family New Year's Eve getaway. We had 6 adults and 4 kids aged 6-17 and it was a great layout for everyone. The games downstairs were a great escape for all of us at one point or another. All the kids could have their own bed - and even when the youngest wanted to join Mom & Dad the extra bunk upstairs worked perfectly. SoCal Vacations was an amazing host. Communication was great and the house was wonderfully clean when we arrived. I've stayed in a number of vacation rentals and the kitchen here was one of the best with everything we needed for cooking and meal prep. They even thought to include not one, but two, water filter pitchers. The bathrooms were wonderfully stocked as well.Would definitely recommend!
