(C) The Retreat - Orange Coast Hideaway - Clean!

Summary:
Unit C: A Romantic Retreat

Suite C at Canyon Ranch, a cozy studio ideal for couples. This suite features a nice king-size bed, a beautiful decorative fireplace, and a large Smart TV for your entertainment. The upgraded kitchenette includes a large fridge and an all-in-one toaster, griddle, and coffee pot!

Enjoy the privacy of your own courtyard and entrance, complete with a locking gate and lock box entry. Located just 2 miles from Newport and Huntington Beach, so everything you need is super close. Enjoy our complimentary bikes and boogie boards to take down to the beach or around the park.

Suite C offers the perfect mix of comfort, privacy, and efficiency for your next getaway.

The Space:
A Rustic Retreat with Modern Comforts

Welcome to our unique unit, where our old farmhouse has been redone to accommodate everyone! Nestled within a ranch-style house and equipped with air conditioning (AC), this space offers a cool and comfortable stay regardless of the weather outside. Perfectly positioned on the border of Costa Mesa and Huntington Beach, our location is in an ideal spot.

Adjacent to the Fairview Nature Park, our unit invites you to enjoy the tranquility of nature with all the comforts of home, including a Mini-split AC system for those warmer days or heating for colder. Whether you are traveling for business or coming to enjoy the beach, our space is your ideal home base.

Guest Access:
As our guest, you'll enjoy the privacy and convenience of full private access to the apartment through your own dedicated entrance via the front gate and a sliding glass door. This ensures a secluded and comfortable stay, allowing you to come and go as you please, adding an extra layer of privacy to your visit.

Please be aware that Unit C does not have parking it is street parking only. Street parking is pretty much always available! We do ask that you please don't park in the driveway area of the property as those spots are designated. You can coordinate with us if we have space for you to park in the back. We appreciate your understanding and flexibility regarding the parking situation as you plan your stay at our unique and rustic retreat. The school next door does have a sign that says no airbnb parking, although we have talked to the groundskeeper, and as long as you move your vehicle by 7 am, you will be ok.

The Neighborhood:
The neighborhood is quiet and suburban. Across the street is Fairview Park, a 200-acre nature reserve with great hiking trails! There is a path to the beach, which is 2 miles away, if you put maps to biking it will show you how to take it. Being so close to the park, we do have a company that sprays for bugs and traps mice around the whole property, and most guests don't run into any problems. But being so close to such a big park there is always a potential. With that being said, we are well equipped to handle it ourselves if needed, but typically, our pest control company takes care of everything, and we don't have any issues.

Getting Around:
Canyon Ranch is close to the beach; however, its less than 2 miles to the freeway so it's easy to get anywhere. Shopping, South Coast Plaza [3.8 mi] Fashion Island [4.7 mi] Orange County Airport (SNA) [4.8mi], LAX [39mi] OC Fairgrounds/Event Center [2.5 mi], Disneyland/Anaheim Convention Center[18 mi], Fwys and coastal routes.

Other Things to Note:
This unit is part of a Ranch style house with all completely separate units.

Celebrate with Us: Our ranch-style property offers the perfect backdrop for your most memorable moments. Whether you're dreaming of a rustic wedding under the stars or a family reunion filled with laughter and love, we're here to make it happen.

Event-Friendly Space: With spacious outdoor areas and a charming setting, our property is fully equipped to host large events. Imagine saying "I do" surrounded by the beauty of nature or gathering your loved ones for a celebration to remember. (Must be coordinated with host)

Let's Plan Together: Interested in renting out the whole property for your special event? We're excited to hear your ideas and help you plan an unforgettable gathering. Please reach out to us directly to discuss your event needs, availability, and pricing.

A Note on Planning: To ensure the best experience for you and your guests, we kindly ask that all large events be discussed and approved in advance. This allows us to provide you with all the necessary information and support to make your event a seamless success.

The community kitchen as well as rear paito has been closed sense covid.

The Retreat is a sweet, simple, and accessible place to stay in the Costa Mesa/Huntington Beach area. Beautiful area, available parking, and had everything I needed for a short stay.

Easy in, easy out. If you need a quick 1 bedroom in Costa Mesa, this works. It’s quiet and backs up to the Waldorf school where the trail begins.

Clean & Comfy
A bit nervous on first night as door lock was loose and we didn’t know the neighborhood.. Next day felt better as the area is nice, no trouble at all, close to groceries, beaches and airport. Our 3 night stay was clean and comfortable with plenty of space to move around. The kitchenette provided enough supplies for snacks or light meals and the gated courtyard definitely a plus! Thank you Scott for checking in on us periodically, we enjoyed our stay.

Comfort & Location Perfect
The location of the Canyon Ranch was great. It was in Costa Mesa, next to a national park for walking. Short drive to the Huntington Dog Park, and Balboa Island. The owner and staff were very nice and provided local information for fun activities during our vacation.

Comfy little place
It was a nice little place to stay with my dogs. A bit more space than a hotel room having a full bath and a little kitchen. A nice little patio with enough dirt areas for a quick potty. Really nice that it was across from a nature area with trails to take the dogs on a nice quiet walk. The people in the unit next door the first night were pretty rude and kind of loud but inside the unit i couldn't hear them at all.

We’ll Be Back
Inside the property was immaculate, even though it appears to be an older building there was not a bug in sight. It was perfect for myself and my dog. I felt safe and enjoyed taking my dog next-door to Fairview Park. A couple of notes for future travelers would be to bring a little bit of foil so you could use the toaster oven without having to scrub, bring any special utensils, such as corkscrew and can opener, and it can get a little loud, especially in the morning. We will definitely be back!

Getting an Upgrade
Since my last stay, the place has been getting upgraded. A kitchen area was added and it was in the process of getting painted. I'm guessing this was the reason for the hiccup at check-in and the slow communication. I have stayed here previously and it wasn't an issue. It's a good location, safe, and clean. There are bikes and boards to use while you stay. The walls are thin and it's noisy in the morning but overall I like staying here.

Great Location
Overall, we had a good stay. The location was great - very close to Huntington beach, trails for walking/biking, and anything you might need food and supply-wise. We loved the little patio area and spent a lot of time out there during our stay. Also, the bed was very comfortable. A couple opportunities for improvement - the map didn't really show the parking spots clearly so we were real nervous we weren't in the right spot, so you might consider adding a photo of that to the listing. And the property was a little more run down and dingy than it appeared in the photos, though overall acceptably clean. Main complaints were that it smelled a little musty, there was a whole bunch of junk stacked up outside against the window in the kitchenette area, and the trash can in the kitchen was full of fruit flies so we took that outside and proceeded to use the outdoor trash can during our stay.

Perfect Getaway Spot
My husband, two small dogs, and I had a lovely 4 night stay. The room was as described: clean quiet, and convenient to everything. The bed was comfortable and had two nice sized night stands. The tv worked nicely and was a great bonus. We were happily surprised to find a much larger refrigerator than pictured. While the room is small like a hotel room, the private patio is such a spectacular bonus. There is a nice table and chairs to eat or relax in. There is a good mix of sunshine and shade. Our pups had room to roam around and do their business. Having the park right down the street made going for walks wonderful. It has a nice mix of dirt paths and paved walkway. We found that assigned on site parking could get tight but we were offered another on site space and there was plenty of street parking. The entrance door had a handle lock and dead bolt. The sliding glass door only locks from the inside but we felt perfectly safe since the entrance door had double locks on the door. An opportunity for improvement would be to have the bike tires inflated and ready to go.
