Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Lake Forest

Joe’s place was perfect for what my family and I needed. Everything is just like the pictures. It’s located in a great area with great food options nearby and quick access to freeway. We had a great time there.

I’m on a cross country trip and have been staying in Airbnbs much of the time. Most have been purely Airbnbs but this place is an actual home. I appreciated this aspect so much and felt appreciative of being trusted with someone’s space and belongings. The neighborhood is beautiful and quiet. The backyard is like a small private park complete with a babbling water feature. I hope to stay here again when I’m back in LA!

Great stay for larger families, especially with little kids. Would highly recommended stay if you want to feel at home in the OC! The toys and play area kept my two boys busy while adults unpacked and settled in. The spaciousness between the first living room and the second living room area made it perfect for my toddlers to roam and not bump into things. The huge backyard with outdoor toys made it easy for the adults to enjoy the fresh Huntington Beach air and sun while the kids played. If I could rate 10/5 for Binh and her husband’s responsiveness, helpfulness, and local on point recs I would!!! There was an issue opening the garage door and she noticed it was hard for me to respond to her on the app and she pivoted our convo to text. Her and her husband were so quickly to come by and resolve the issue while making sure we felt comfortable and safe in our stay. She also recommended some very good local restaurants that my whole family enjoyed (and haven’t stopped thinking about 😋

We went to Universal Studios for the weekend, and it was the perfect place to stay. It was a very short drive to Universal. The house was very clean, and the host was very nice and communicated well.

Super clean and perfect for our stay.

This is a beautiful private retreat in the heart of Atwater. That is was also dog and family friendly was such a huge bonus. We needed a place to stay near our home while our floors were being refinished. And this place was wonderful! We were able to walk to multiple restaurants and coffee shops. We’d had a slight issue with the AC on the first night, but Eloísa and her crew were very responsive and the issue was resolved within hours. She also gave us a slight credit for our trouble. The spaces are well proportioned and it feels like a home that folks live in. Clean, bright and functional! Big tables to play games at and plenty of places to unwind. The sofa has seen better days but the master bedroom mattress is divine! Definitely going to recommend her place to friends and family visiting from out of town.

We had a great stay! The house was clean, spacious, and perfect for our group of 10. It had everything we needed for a comfortable and easy trip to Disneyland. The location was super convenient, and we really appreciated all the thoughtful touches throughout the home. One small recommendation for the owners—not a complaint, just a suggestion—would be to consider adding a full-length mirror in each bedroom. It would be a helpful addition, especially for larger groups. Overall, we’d definitely stay here again!

Very accommodating for my family!!! If we didn’t go anywhere, there was something to do at the house. So convenient but the star of the week was really the host! Helpful, kind, responsive, clear instructions. It doesn’t get better than that!

It was a great place, amazing location. It had everything we needed. All the stuffs are there to make a meal or comfortable stay. For Some reason, Google Maps shows a wrong location but Apple maps is fine. I would suggest to locate it via old fashioned way ( finding the street and looking at the house numbers).

Place was great, decent sized apartment. Parking was rough especially in the evenings and on weekends but we made it work. It is on the main road in San Clemente which is nice for walking to Del Mar street but definitely meant it was loud at night. The middle bedroom was much quieter. All in all, we had a great time & we were thankful that we were able to extend our trip multiple days.

We had such a great stay! The host was super helpful and made everything really easy with detailed instructions. The apartment was super clean, cozy, and had everything we needed. Plus, the location was perfect — so close to everything in Pasadena. Would definitely love to stay here again!

The place was great, really quiet and serene. The place surrounding is a little hilly, but you will have a great time relaxing.

It was very nice amd cozy, had walkable stores and restaurants (even walked to a restaurants that was nearby) has a very safe environment and had no issues, love to stay again in future

Georgetta was very pleasant and answered very quickly. Place is close to all the places we wanted to visit. Will book again.

My son and I had a great time in L.A. Mieko's home is in a good neighborhood, clean, and accessible to many hotspots we wanted to visit. The home had everything we needed and Mieko checked with me to ensure that everything was adequate. I would definitely recommend this home to travelers!

Great stay and would definitely recommend

Sharon’s Newport Airbnb was the perfect getaway with stunning views and a comfortable family vibe… perfect for the 6 of us… The beds made for a great night’s rest, and the place had everything we needed. Being able to easily park 2 vehicles was a huge plus. And, place is within walking distance of many conveniences including a deli and pharmacy.

Great location. Enjoyed our get away and the host was really helpful and responsive.

This was our second trip to Catalina but our first time staying in Hamilton Cove. We will definitely come back. The location has so many amenities but downtown is still easily accessible by golf cart. We took full advantage of the pool, hot tub, tennis courts and private beach. Trevor’s place had all of the sports equipment you might need which was really nice and the view is stunning.

Really awesome place to stay for Disneyland! It took about 25 minutes to get to the parks and only 18 minutes on the way home. Super clean and it actually looks like the pictures. The 4 bedroom is in a converted garage, it felt homey though. Perfect for our family and we would stay there again!

Let’s just say Catalina Island is just expensive.. we got lucky with Hugh’s place. It was super spacious, if anything too big for the 4 of us. There was plenty of room for my 4yr to enjoy himself. The pool and everything about the complex was great. Hugh and Cela was awesome with their response and hospitality. Having a golf cart was a PLUS.. we all enjoyed cruising around the island with it.. Super duper chill and laid back.. we all had an amazing weekend.

Nice place and area. Closed to ferry port. Closed to downtown. We enjoyed strolling around the island using golf cart. Clealiness of the house , we’ll rate as 8/10 we found some hair on the hair dryer and hair on the bath tub. Some stains on the hand towel in the kitchen and plates have some food stains on it. But overall we’ll rate 9/10. We’ll definitely come back again in the summer with family.

Rebecca is a wondeful host! The condo is super clean and made me feel right at home. The artsy environment gave off a calming vibe. restaurants, coffee shops and more all within a 10 minute walk. I can't wait to book my next stay here.

We enjoyed our stay in this cute cottage! Very clean and had all of the amenities we could have needed! So appreciative that my dog was welcome! Also appreciated flexible check in! Thank you Brian. Will be back when in the area!
