Amazing home and spectacular location!
We celebrated my mom’s 70th birthday this past weekend and had such a wonderful time I’m not sure where to begin… the home has a terrific layout for entertaining. All the rooms, beds and couch/chairs were super comfortable. Spotlessly clean throughout. And so many awesome extras–the kayaks, piano, patios, balcony off the master, games, bikes–we took advantage of them all. The house is literally steps from a specialty market and lots of shops and restaurants on the main downtown street. We will be coming back as soon as possible! This was absolutely one of our very top getaway experiences. And Greg you were such a thoughtful and responsive host, thank you so much!

Amazing House - Excellent Location
I went here with a reunion of friends and this house could not be more perfect. the rooms are spacious and plentiful, as well as incredibly clean. I'm a stickler about cleanliness, and this is the first rental property I've been in where it seemed like they actually did deep clean. It smelled fresh and there was no dust in sight. The kitchen had every pot, pan, utensil, appliance you would need (including 3 different types of coffee makers!). The location is half a block away from the main Balboa Island shopping strip, which is so convenient. The kayaks are AWESOME--we had a blast exploring the canals. The only difficult part was parking in the garage, as we had a Honda Civic and a Toyota Corolla, which couldn't quite fit. But no matter, it was very easy to find parking on Little Balboa Island and took me no more than 5 minutes to walk to my car. If you are considering a place in Balboa Island, stop looking, you've found the place. You can't beat a house as perfect as this one.

Location can't be beat!
The house was not only well laid out, stocked and beautiful, it was right on the canal, in one of the coveted locations in OC. Balboa Island is a special place and it was nice to feel like we lived there for a few days. Greg, the host, also can't be beat! So responsive and kind.

Why they chose this property

Our family LOVES Southern California, and all the great things to do here! We have owned this home for over 20 years, and it has been passed from one generation to the next. Balboa Island is a very special place and we are sure you will enjoy it!

What makes this property unique

With large skylights in the Master Bedroom and upstairs hallway, comfortable dining area, roof deck, private dock with a small beach area, and a living room and patio alongside the water, we knew this was the property on the Island that we wanted to own. Superb location with lots of morning sunshine in the bedrooms and a short walk to the downtown and harbor and beach areas as well.
