Great house and great location, just a few minutes from Balboa Park. The house was clean and great for kids, with toys, games, books, beach toys, a high chair, a pack n play, etc. Would happily stay again.

The place was clean and nice and Rachel was great to deal with in all of this. The beds were extremely comfortable and each room has it's own A/C setting which worked out great.I would 100% stay there again and recommend without hesitation. We appreciated the fact that it was a little removed from the congestion and street parking was easy and the neighborhood felt quiet and safe.

We had an amazing time in San Diego staying at Rachel’s house. Perfect for a family of four and our dog - there is an awesome park within a 3 min walk. It’s an older house but we were comfy - especially with the fireplace on during a colder evening. Really great location near beaches, Balboa Park, good eats. The neighborhood was safe and quiet. And street parking was never an issue. Thanks again!

Gem of a house in North Park neighborhood

This house was awesome, as was the owner who was super helpful. The house is in an adorable, cute, safe neighborhood. Pretty much everywhere we went was 10 minutes away! I am really particular about noise and comfort when sleeping and the rooms were so cozy and quiet. The kitchen is well stocked, the house gets nice natural light, has multiple seating options for meals, and had plenty of towels, including beach towels.Would absolutely stay here again and hope to in the future.

Wonderful Stay!

This house was perfect for our visit to San Diego! We stayed with our two young children and appreciated the extra touches to make our stay easy (step stool for the kids, laundry detergent supplied, among other things). The location was great for everything we did. It was also on a quiet street and we had no issue with parking. The host was always quick to communicate and check in on us. Highly recommend this house!

Cute home with lots of character

We are really pleased we chose this house to stay in. It was August and warm so the AC units in every room was a must and it all worked really well. Important for me is windows and doors are accessible. We didn't have children with us but could tell it was well stocked for anyone bringing children. Rachel, the owner, is easy to get in touch with for any needs you may have. The neighborhood is quiet. Parking is easy to find in front of the house. The bedding is cozy and comfy and lots of dining and seating areas inside and out. I would definitely stay here if we need to visit San Diego again.

Nice family house near a great park

Our family of four (2 young kids) had a great time in San Diego. The house had everything we needed as a family. The mattresses were comfortable and the location was central for us. Only a five minute drive to the zoo and enough room for every one. The porch swing was a hit with the kids!

Wonderful stay

We loved our stay at this vacation home! The house was a lot bigger than I expected. The master bedroom was generously sized and well appointed. The other rooms were plenty big for our needs, as well. The location was prime for our vacation as it allowed us to visit places on our itinerary with ease. It was close to everything but was enough away from the freeway and bustling neigborhoods surrounding us that it was nice and quiet for a good night’s sleep. All interactions with the neighbors were pleasant. The house was very clean and comfortable and the kitchen was extremely well stocked. There were a lot of little details that we really appreciated and we loved the fully fenced and private back yard and patio with its beautiful plants and flowers. Our hostess was wonderful to work with. She gave good instructions and was readily available but her information via messaging and what was available in the home didn’t leave us needing much. We had such an enjoyable stay!! Thank you, Rachel!!

Bff getaway

My bff and I take a trip yearly and this year was San Diego! The house was amazing, neighborhood was quiet, parking was easy right in front, the kitchen had everything we could possibly imagine needing. They had things to keep a baby too such as a playpen and highchair. They really were prepared for anything. I'm pretty tall for a female so the shower could be a bit tricky for an adult male but that's just part of the charm of an old home ❤️ we loved seeing all the cute architectural pieces of the home.

Amazing SD home

Stayed here with our three kids (8, 6 and 3) for about a week. The home was perfect! Plenty of space for all of us. The neighborhood was quiet, and we enjoyed the park a few blocks away. We really appreciated the beach toys and boogie boards on our beach days. The house was located close to everything and provided a nice retreat after our days exploring. We’ve come to San Diego for the last several summers, and this house stands out as exceptional. We’ll be back!
