Attractive San Diego property.

Very nice, well kept property. Close to San Diego attractions. Beds were very comfortable. Close to small market and coffee shops. Felt safe walking in the neighborhood. Even had an EV charger that we used. Had a great time. Will come back again.

Friends weekend

We had a wonderful time in this San Diego home. Location is perfect! It was in a quiet and safe neighborhood, easy to walk to anything you need. Also had some fun game to utilize and kitchen basics. Did not know there is a full time tenant directly below the house, but it wasn’t an issue. Would stay here again

Winding down west coast trip

We were very fortunate to stumble upon this VRBO listing when we were looking for a place to finish off the last two nights of our west coast adventure! The house was immaculate, well-stocked, and centrally located. Andrew’s attention to detail and willingness to respond were equally impressive. We will definitely stay here again if we find our family traveling west!

South Park red chair porch

What a sweet place. It was like walking into a 1915 Craftsman's house. (which it is) Enough modern amenities but still kepting the integrity of the 1915 home. Well supplied kitchen with cooking oils, spices, utensils etc. The back porch is suburb. Sorry we couldn't use it more. It was rainy and cool during our stay. Location couldn't have been better. Target right up the street, liquor store and plenty of delicious restaurants, coffee bars and food trucks. Plus it was only a short walk to our sons place. We so enjoy San Diego. Can't wait to be there again.
