detailed property information: this private, air conditioned/heated studio apartment retreat with a full bath and a kitchenette is newly designed and sits atop the garage on our property which is used for storage only (you will not hear a garage door during your stay) It's a completely separate guest house with private entry and no shared spaces. The apartment is larger than it looks and has plenty of space to store all your gear, including two large walk-in closets and a long hallway downstairs which could easily store extra equipment you may have with you such as skis or bikes, etc. If traveling with an infant or toddler, the upstairs walk in closet has a curtain only as a door and some guests have even told us it was a great space to setup the pack'n'play so that baby can go to bed without being out in the open.
all bedding and towels are provided (please bring your own beach towels) as well as cleaning supplies, paper products, and starter supplies of coffee and plenty of creamer and teas Please note that the apartment offers a kitchenette with plenty of amenities to prepare some light meals. Included are a mini fridge/freezer (this is fairly good sized and holds much more than your standard hotel mini fridge), a Keurig coffee maker, hot plate, microwave, toaster, countertop oven and all the basic kitchen necessities including dishes, glassware, cookware, tea kettle and utensils. Most items are on the smaller side to account for our cute kitchenette! This is probably not the place to cook a huge very involved meal, but we've had plenty of guests comment that it suited their needs perfectly, even longer term guests. There is not a dishwasher or disposal, but a drying rack, kitchen gloves and washing soap and sponges are provided. There is no laundry access, but there is a laundromat on the corner a 1-minute drive away.
the futon would make a bed for two children (or one-two small adults) if desired (extra bedding and pillows provided) and we have lots of baby equipment in the closet if desired including a highchair, booster chair, and pack'n'play infant bed (please bring your own sheets)
there is a dining table for 4 as well as a kitchen hutch that can double as an additional space to work or eat The smart TV and Roku stream bar are wired for high-speed streaming and the apartment is a peaceful and quiet place to work from home with high-speed wifi.
free parking on the side of the house by entry and quick walk to all the amenities of downtown twain harte Access to Twain Harte Lake is included on our membership - please enquire if interested and we will add you to the guest house log. Please be advised that the lake does require an $8/per person fee (this has nothing to do with us, it's the Lake's policy), but the necessary access is provided in our rental.

the guest house retreat is on the same property as our main house rental offering and others may be at the main home property at any time Please note that the rental areas are completely separate and distinct and you will be able to enjoy your privacy. There is a shared driveway with plenty of room for all - guest house guests park on the left and main house on the right.
