Tracy was amazing to deal with! The home was beautiful and worked perfect for the six of us. Neat clean, easy access in and out. The front sitting area was perfect for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The dollhouse was enjoyed by our two grandbabies, and the fire pit was comfy and easy to use. The sitting area in the back was perfect in the afternoon to rest in. Beds were comfortable and plenty of clean towels available. We definitely would love to stay here again.

Beautiful home, just as described
I absolutely loved my stay here, the place was beautiful, clean, and well stocked. I loved that there was a front and backyard and streaming services on the TV. Tracy was very kind and responsive to questions. I believe there was no AC which was the only drawback in the summer heat but I would still stay there again.

The BEST!
The Yellow Door is the sweetest property. We absolutley loved it. It was clean and cozy. Kitchen had just about everything you might need for cooking lightly. The BBQ was great and we loved the fire pit. The neighborhood is quiet and there is a wonderful walking trail we discovered one morning. The Yellow Door is just a mile or two from Moonlight Beach where we spent a lot of time. Encinitas is a wonderful little town for families. We will stay at this house again if we ever get a chance.
Tracy was wonderful and accommodating. Super easy to communicate with and very prompt in replying. Thank you Tracy!
Thank you little Yellow Door we loved you!

Clean, quiet property
Gorgeous house and very clean inside. Interior layout was different than we expected based on pictures and some exterior windows have no blinds which was odd. Overall pleased and would recommend.
