In spring 2013, ahead of her parents\u2019 two-week visit, Dawn decided that a makeover was in order. She incorporated color and pattern, yielding an interior more in line with what one might expect in a beach town in Southern California: sun-kissed yellow walls; a swath of Kelly green in the kitchen; a long table, topped with a vibrant print, that functions for reading, dining, or doing work; a lime-hued bathroom; and cheery polka-dotted bedding. But it\u2019s easy to see why guests are often charmed before ever setting foot inside: Just beyond the blue-and-white cottage-like structure\u2019s Dutch door is a deck with a view of a pond and a garden that includes a Meyer lemon tree.<\/p>\n

After her parents\u2019 stay, Dawn thought to herself: \u201cWell, I\u2019ve got this room that\u2019s completely remodeled. What should I do with it?\u201d She approached her husband about putting it on WP Rentals. He was hesitant at first; in part because in order to get to the guesthouse, you have to walk right by the couple\u2019s own residence. So they started out with just single (one-person) bookings before allowing pairs. \u201cNow he\u2019s a bigger social person with my guests than me,\u201d laughs Dawn.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
