Great home base for guys’ golf trip
Myself and three friends met in San Diego for a week-long golf trip. This place was a perfect home base for us to explore the area and golf our hearts out.Check-in and check-out process was so easy and the house had all the amenities listed and we could desire. Can’t recommend this place enough for friends or even a family as a great headquarters to get around the wonderful city of San Diego.

Roomy house with an amazing view
We go to SD quite often to see our son in the Marines. Everyone in our family said we’ve got to stay here again. We had 6 adults and there was plenty of room for us all to hangout. It’s easy to get to Little Italy and other places like airport. Great communication with the host. Would definitely book again!

An amazing getaway spot!
4 of us had a convention downtown and didn’t want to be at a hotel. This spot was easily traveled to the Convention Center! The view from this home is spectacular! The 4 bedrooms were all comfortable. I slept in the room off the garage, and it was cozy, secure, and I was able to control my own room temperature which was a bonus for me since I run colder than most. The kitchen was well-equipped, the living room area provided a wonderful view while relaxing. The cleanup directions were straight-forward and more simple than other places I’ve stayed. The neighbor was super friendly to us! The owner was responsive and available quickly. This was such a great experience! I’d stay at this home again!

Great for large families
We were in town for our Marine’s boot camp graduation. We had 2 families staying together in this home. 5 adults and 5 kids (ages 4-15). This home was very comfortable for us. Everything you could need plus some is available for you. We had 2 large suvs and had no issues with parking both vehicles in the garage. The street is tight but it’s not that bad. And location was perfect, only 5 mins from the gate. Worth every penny we paid. Thank you or everything.

Boot Camp Graduation
We had such a great stay at this property for my daughter's boot camp graduation. It's about a mile and a half from the MCRD. A little more than walking distance for us, but definitely doable. There are some really great restaurants nearby and we had the opportunity to check a few out. The house was a great space to host our family for a few days. The host was very communicative and made our stay a breeze. Check in and out was simple and quick. Thanks for everything!

Great location with spectacular view
We had a wonderful time at this house. It’s centrally located. All places we went to like downtown and La Jolla are less than 20 min away. The living room is facing the airport with spectacular view. Neighborhood is clean and friendly. The house is built on a narrow street, so it took sometime to come in and out of the garage. But you park the car up on the street that works also as there’s a short stairway that connects the road until to nearby the house.
All the bedrooms are roomy. The guest bathroom downstairs is a little outdated. The shower pressure is a little low but everything works. The house is very clean in general. Internet wifi and tv all works well. It would be nice if the bedroom thru garage has its own bathroom. It’s a little inconvenient in the middle of the night. There are basic kitchen supply. Overall I would recommend this place to friends and families.

It is a good place with a great host. Location was great. Only thing I would note it’s that the parking is very tight and Ubers tend to get lost when locating the property. Also, you can hear planes taking off till about 2am. Bonus room is nice but more for a couple/ family that needs or wants to be secluded. Very dark at night as they don’t have a lot of lighting.

Nice Stay in Mission Hills
We had a lovely stay at this home. I was a little concerned originally about one of the bedroom's being off the garage, but it actually worked out perfectly for our teenage nephew who is a late riser while the rest of us are early birds. The location was very easy to get around, seemed like every destination was within a 10-minute driving radius. The kitchen has all the equipment needed though there are few pantry items, FYI if you plan on cooking more than eating out. Evan was a great host who was very easy to get in contact with.
