Our Extended Weekend

JLew Spring Valley Lake, Ca
Review Submitted: August 8, 2006 Date of Stay: January 2006
Our weekend at the spa and garden retreat was wonderful and relaxing. Situated across the street from a park was perfect for the children. We found the home to comfortable and spacious with plenty of ammeneties to relax. Also, the property was situated close enough to down town that were able to make several trips.

With the privacy that was offered in the well sized back yard we were able to enjoy all it had to offer: bbq's, spa time and time with the family. We look forward to the next time we can take advantage of the spa and garden retreat.
