***WE LIVE UPSTAIRS AND YOU CAN HEAR US LIVING, SIMILAR TO AN APARTMENT. THERE IS AN ENTIRE FAMILY LIVING ABOVE YOU. DO NOT BOOK OUR AMAZING HOME IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT.*** *** THE UNIQUE THING ABOUT SAN DIEGO IS IT’S NEARLY PERFECT CLIMATE THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. HOWEVER, AUGUST - OCTOBER WE HAVE WARMER TEMPERATURES. THE IS NO AIR CONDITIONER AND CAN BE WARMER IN THE SUMMER***
It’s important to point out that we are not a good fit for groups who are coming to San Diego to party. No parties are permitted in the space and we cannot tolerate guests coming home from the bars or clubs in the early morning hours.
We live in a residential neighborhood, so we ask for very little noise after 10:00 pm and quiet from midnight to 7:00 am.
With regard to location, please note the description and the map. Uber or a rental car are needed to get to most places here in San Diego. We are about 15 mins away from everything. Location is the only thing we cannot change so please make note of where we are in relation to everything to make sure it is a perfect fit for your stay.
If you have any questions or need any recommendations, please let me know. We are happy to help make dinner suggestions/reservations, arrange for an in-suite massage or private yoga session on the deck.
We strive to exceed our guest’s expectations. Please stay in touch to ensure open communication which helps us to deliver a five-star VRBO experience!
Warm regards, Kelly and Blake

Cancer treatment stay
Blake was a very wonderful host always wanted to make sure we were ok. My son is very immune compromised and his home was very clean and cozy. It was a great place to stay for the holidays of 2021. Thank you for last minute booking and acceptance. Take care

Great deck!
I was overall very happy with our stay. The furniture is comfortable and the main areas are spacious. The shower was on the smaller side. The host and hostess are very responsive.

Can’t wait to come back
Amazing experience. Kelly and Blake made sure that we had everything we needed and then some. Location is great, lots of nearby areas to eat, quiet neighborhood and a view that inspires awe.
Kids absolutely loved it and didn’t wanna leave! I can only hope it’s available for our next trip!

This was a very convenient location. We were 15 minutes from everything we needed. According to my daughter, it was better than the pictures 😊. We would stay here again!

Home away from home.
This has been one of the most comfortable stays that I have experienced with VRBO. I travel frequently, both in the US and abroad. I look for cleanliness, easy check-in, and a feeling of home. This property nailed it. It's quaint and in a safe residential neighborhood. I had breakfast on the deck every morning overlooking a beautiful green canyon. And every great destination in the San Diego area is a 10-20 minute drive from here: beaches, hiking, farmer's markets, and the best food that California has to offer. Kelly and Blake are wonderful hosts. I had a very extensive stay here and asked for restaurant suggestions and they gave me 22 of them, along with places to hike and great local attractions. This will be my go-to stay every time I come to San Diego.
