Fantastic six weeks

We escaped winter to Cat City for a fantastic 6 weeks at Steve’s Zen Retreat! I can honestly say when we had a question about ANYTHING, he’d typically text us back within 5-10 minutes. Centerically located, minutes to everything, too. Amazing mountain views of Gorgonio Mountain & San Bernardino mtns.. great pool & hot tub! Run this place!

Peaceful, quiet, and convenient stay

We came for a nearby wedding and found we loved our time at the house so much we just relaxed together in the days before and after the ceremony instead of sightseeing. Clean, easy to like, space for everyone, comfortable beds, birds and privacy. What’s not to like?

Overall good, be careful with dogs

The oleanders in the back yard are very toxic to dogs. Our dog became very ill, requiring an emergency vet visit. Good to be aware as property is advertised as pet friendly.Otherwise nice home with wonderful yard. Host was responsive as needed.

Our host Steven was great. He responded quickly to all our needs.

Quiet neighborhood, great yard for our dogs. I suggest noting in your VRBO listing that oleander shrubs along back fence line are toxic to dogs. We believe one of our dogs ate a fruit off the oleander and developed diarrhea. We kept dogs away from oleander after that.

Delightful stay!

This home was very clean and comfortable. We all were very comfortable and satisfied with our bedrooms. The yard! Now that is the reason to book this home! Huge, beautifully landscaped with ample seating. We spent a majority of our vacation outside in the pool & jacuzzi. Highly recommend!

Nice outdoor space.

Everything was clean and neat. The outdoors provided plenty of space and everything one needs to enjoy the pool. The kitchen is very well equipped. The neighborhood is very peaceful. I'd highly recommend this home!
