We had a great time! The neighborhood was quiet and close to some hiking trails. The location is also about 20-30 minutes from all of the main San Diego attractions! The pool and hot tub were great to relax in and for the kids to enjoy when we got home from adventures!

Good place for stay
Overall great home and very nice backyard to hangout. We were three families, all with kids ages 4-7. Bunk beds were a hit with kids. One room with two twin beds was much smaller than it looked in the pic. Host was welcoming and responsive throughout. Peaceful neighborhood and not far from most spots in SD.
