Stay here!

The house is extremely comfortable in every way. Furniture/Bed are good. Kitchen/Bath are well stocked. We were there in March & the weather was quite cool so we had the fireplace on every night. Made the living area toasty!Part of the attraction is the quiet neighborhood the house is in. In walking distance of groceries & restaurants of all kinds. Close to Balboa Park. Other attractions are not far via freeway. Property manager was very helpful in orienting us to the area. I can recommend this house without hesitation!

Great stay

The house is lovely and was a great fit for two couples. Clean with many amenities, close to many restaurants and grocery stores within walking distance. Short drive to downtown. Kent, the manager, was very helpful and responded quickly when needed. Only room for one car but that worked for us. Would highly recommend.

Home Away from Home

We flew in from Florida to welcome our son home from deployment and had a few delays with the day of his arrival. Kent worked with us without any hassle and was super accomodating. The house was perfect! Clean, updated, had everything we needed and Kent took the time to meet us and explain how everything worked. We didn't have one complaint. The neighborhood was quiet and close to everything. It truly felt like home and we would definitely stay here again the next time we are in town. Thank you again Kent!

Very quiet, comfortable, ample dishes, utensils, appliances, nice deck to enjoy wine from the Vons (amazing selection) 2 blocks away, along with cheese from the cheese shop in walking distance. Or enjoy the donut shop across from Vons. Kent was very responsive. All-in-all an outstanding base from which to enjoy San Diego. Or just to hang out.

Perfect Stay

Our family of four adults visited San Diego to attend my nephew's Marine graduation. The home was perfectly located, so we could quickly go back and forth from the airport and events at MCRD, but it was also a short drive to Torrey Pines/La Jolla. The kitchen was well stocked with everything needed to make and enjoy meals on the back patio or dining area. It was also less than a 10-minute walk to restaurants, coffee, etc. The home itself was clean, comfortable, thoughtfully arranged, and beautifully decorated. What a gem!

Great find in Mission Hills

First, this property is located very centrally, adjacent to Hillcrest, as in a 5 minute walk. Kent, the property manager, was very friendly, accommodating, and gracious. The house was super clean. I hesitated before renting it because it's a little more expensive than some other properties I looked at, but I'm so glad I did because it was very comfortable and I could tell the owners take very good care of it. Highly recommended! One small irritation, it was very difficult to figure out the remote controls. There were three of them with about 100 different buttons. By the time I got the TV to work. I totally forgot what I had done to get it working. It would be great to have some written instructions just to get the damn thing on!

Cozy little slice of Heaven

I can’t say enough great things about our stay. Kent was accommodating with an early check-in and met us at the property to go over important details that were helpful. The kitchen was a dream, fully stocked with all the things we needed which was so great! The bedrooms had extra pillows and blankets and the beds were very comfortable. The living room was bright and cozy, we enjoyed the fireplace in the evenings. The deck was so relaxing and offered great views as well as fruit trees that gave me all the limes I needed! We literally felt like we were in a home away from home. There are restaurants and a grocery store within walking distance and the neighborhood was safe and quiet. This was most definitely a home away from home and our best experience so far. We will definitely stay here again! Thanks Kent!
