Kent is a great host! And I can’t say enough about the beauty of the house. Gorgeous restored craftsman surrounded by lush gardens… Felt like I was far away from the city, and yet Balboa park is right around the corner, as are shops and dining along North Park’s 30th Street. My only regret is not staying longer!

Our experience was exceptional from beginning to end. The host warmly welcomed us, gave us a fascinating tour of his historic property, and answered our texts promptly. Sitting on the private deck off the living room made us feel as though we were in a beautiful, tropical hideaway. Balboa Park and all it has to offer was just steps away in this lovely neighborhood.
