This is a great house for the money and an excellent place to relax and unwind with friends or family. This place is all about gathering spaces; the huge outdoor lanai has more than enough seating for large groups, an outdoor pool table and TV, and functions as an extension of the indoor space with the location's excellent weather. We utilized both the pool and the hot tub, and the yard boasts views of the surrounding hills, lots of trees and greenery, quirky, fun sculptures, and a large palapa by the pool with even more seating. There's plenty to do without ever leaving the property. If you do leave, it is a decent drive to Temecula, though--probably 30 minutes to the wineries--although the drive is easy in all but rush-hour traffic. The hosts were very nice, and we had an outstanding time.
