This is a beautiful home and property, that is a perfect communal space if you have a larger family or group of friends. We loved sitting in the outdoor patio area and looking at the view. The kitchen was well stocked and we had everything we needed. The neighborhood was very quiet. We would absolutely stay here again.

We live in San Diego and needed a place for the weekend while our house was an open house. We loved the quiet cul de sac, easy check in, tons of space, and large fenced in yard. We brought our two large dogs which was a requirement for our rental choice, and really appreciate that the host doesn’t limit weight on pets. I think our dogs loved the yard more than we did! The kitchen had everything we could need, we were super comfortable, and enjoyed a good nights sleep with no noise from neighbors or busy roads. We added on an extra night mid stay and the host was very accommodating (and we were super grateful)! We would rent here again and recommend it. My boys (1.5 and 5) loved the games provided, the dinosaurs, and the duck in the bathtub. My husband enjoyed the hot tub! Thank you Shannon!

The perfect home away from home. 10/10 We are a family of 4, my husband, myself and twin boys (7yo). The first thing I noticed was how at home we felt. There’s a large backyard that’s visible from almost every area of the house, and, with 7yo boys, that was huge! It allowed me, as a mother, to also vacation. The home is conveniently located within minutes from any/everything you might need, not that we did need anything. Shannon had supplied everything you could think of. One of the boys got sick mid stay. Typically, we’d have to run to a store or pharmacy for things like cleaning supplies, it was all there. I’m telling you there’s no greater relief than to have everything necessary when your child is suddenly sick and you’re across the country. This I cannot make up, I left my luggage-daily medication and all, upon departure. The drive to the airport isn’t unreasonably long (1.5-2hrs) however, we didn’t have time to go back. Shannon reached out to me within that timeframe to let me know that I’d left the suitcase, and before we even got on the plane home, my luggage was headed the same direction. We arrived home, got in bed, and my luggage was home before I woke up the following morning. Grateful is an understatement, when the only person that can help you realizes and acts on your personal urgency, that’s a relief that I can’t explain. It goes beyond the typical business/hostess expectations. Shannon went above and beyond. The best stay yet! CleanLocationNecessitiesHost

We had a wonderful stay. The location was perfect and close to where we wanted to be. The kitchen was well organized and had everything we needed. Plenty of space. The floor plan was open and spacious, we never felt crowded in. It was an excellent house. Thank you to Shannon for being a great host, she was easy to contact and responded quickly. Would definitely stay there again. We were traveling with my elderly parents, and it was great being able to share a house that was so inviting and easy for them to get around in.

This is a great dog-friendly place to stay! Tierrasanta is the perfect location - everything (beach, downtown, etc.) is within a 15-20 minute drive. The furnishings and appliances at the place are really nice. The best part though is the large, fenced backyard area which is a great place for your pups to roam!

We loved our stay! Smooth check in/out process, host was very friendly and available for any needs that came up. The house was fully stocked with anything you could think of, including yard games and tons of board games that we played all weekend. Jacuzzi was great and easy to use. All bedrooms were spacious and comfortable. The yard was perfect for our furr kids and for hanging out. We went down to Belmont Park and Mission Bay which were both close by and an easy drive. Lots of food and grocery options close to the house which was very convenient. The only thing I would say to prepare for is there’s not a ton of space to put dry goods/pantry items without taking up kitchen counter space. We made due by keeping items in boxes and bags close to the kitchen. Overall, the house was great and we would absolutely stay again. Thank you for being such a gracious host!

Peaceful, Comfortable, and Perfect for Families
Everything we needed and more. We had an incredibly comfortable and exceptional stay. The home is beautiful, cozy, and has a great view. Communication was excellent throughout. There were thoughtful touches everywhere, board games, beach gear, and plenty of space to relax. The beds and bedrooms were comfortable, and the family dining area was perfect for spending quality time together. The kitchen, living room areas, and bedrooms fully stocked with all the essentials. There was even a cute basket in the master bathroom with all the little things you might need, it was such a sweet touch. I've never slept more comfortably away from home. Our kids absolutely loved it too. We wish we would have stayed a couple more days. We most definitely would stay here again.

Just to note, there aren’t two queen sized couch beds. There is a large twin xl sized fold out chair and several air mattresses. Still worked great for our needs!
