We loved our stay here. It was nestled in the hills and felt very serene and secluded. Location was great with easy access to beaches and downtown San Diego including the San Diego Zoo. Communication was fantastic, and the property manager was very helpful. If we go back to San Diego we would definitely stay here again!

San Diego Hidden Gem

A hidden gem in a central location. It exceeded our expectations especially the outdoor garden patio.

Great, quiet location!

We really enjoyed the location with how quiet it was. It was close enough to the highway to get most anywhere easily. The house is hidden back in behind some businesses, but wasn't too hard to find. The owner was very communicative, we had everything we needed for our stay.

We liked the house.

We have rented in San Diego a half dozen times in the last couple years. This was a great house in terms of good indoor and outdoor spaces, comfort, privacy, a lovely yard, a good kitchen and other amenities. The bed was comfortable. It also has good access to the freeways. You must have a car. The house is not in a walkable neighborhood.

New Years Visit

Overall this was a great property to stay at. It is a very serene location as described with ample outdoor seating. It was cooler the whole time that we were in town so we didn't get to take full advantage of that. The house was clean and spacious for a 2 bedroom, and the kitchen was extraordinarily equipped! We would absolutely stay at this house again, but several items of feedback that we wanted to give. First, the supplies provided were slim (i.e. toilet paper, trash bags etc.) There were 2 of each item and for 4 adults over 5 days this wasn't enough. Though the Host did respond quickly to drop off extra items it felt inconvenient. Second, the Pack and Play mattress is very discolored and appears dirty. We used the sheet provided as well as one we brought along, but first impressions on seeing it weren't great. Lastly, the guest bedroom downstairs is very limited on outlets and it was very difficult to plug everything we needed to in the room.

Your on slice of paradise

Stayed at the cottage 5 nights and my family and I had the best time. The property is immaculate and has all you need in order to have a phenomenal time while in SD. The gardens was my absolute favorite part of the house and my kids enjoyed watching the birds bathe in the water fountain outside, butterfly watching and searching for a friendly small lizard they found while exploring. The house is packed with all the things one would need while on vacation and we grilled out and enjoyed a nice evening at the cottage 3 nights out of 5 (after spending all day long enjoying SD it was nice to chill at the cottage). The cottage feels very very safe and its pretty secluded from other homes so you are tucked away in your own little paradise. I have nothing but amazing things to say about our experience while there. Stacey, the property manager, was promptly available to answer any questions and was an angel in helping us when my husband had a medical emergency due to his personal health. Stacey was understanding, caring and very flexible with our family as we made sure my husband's health was taken care of. All and all, we loved our stay at the cottage and we are already planning to come back next year. Ooh, the beds were so comfortable and the towels/bed sheets smelled amazing clean and fresh. 5 stars!! Thank you Stacey for making us all feel at home while in your home.

A wonderful house in prime location. Our family loved this property. It is in a prime location with easy access to highways and was minutes away from everything we did while in town. The property is tucked behind some office buildings and provides a Avery private space. The property is well kept and beautiful with small wildlife abundant (small lizards, butterflies, hummingbirds).Would highly recommend this property if you're in town!

We loved our stay at this Mission Valley property! The location was perfect—close to the airport, SDSU, and with easy access to I-5. The gated entry made us feel safe and gave total privacy, and the certified wildlife habitat made the property feel extra special.The house was beautiful, the kitchen had everything we needed (modern appliances, cookware, and even a gas grill), which made cooking at home super convenient.Stacey was a fantastic host—quick to respond and always checked in to make sure we had what we needed. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting San Diego!

Fantastic house

The house is fantastic and in an amazing location. There are no neighbors, you are isolated from everyone. The house was super clean and spacious. Stacey, the property manager, is extremely responsive. Any issues we had were dealt with right away. Bring your when dishwasher tablets, there were only 2 provided, which was a bit weird. Would definitely stay here again!

Bi annual visit to see the kids

Grandparents visiting son, daughter in law and grandson. We needed a kitchen so that we could provide Grams goodies. We also needed A/C. This property delivered on both. Very clean and lovely decor, both inside and outside. Our only disappointment was the actual area where the property is located. We both felt that the rate was a good value. If this prperty were in a better neighborhood it would have ben 3 X the cost. That said, we always felt safe and secure.

House is wonderful, but not in Mission Hills as advertised. Owner wrongfully called the police on us

The house itself is quaint and (very) secluded with comfortable sleeping accommodations and an excellent outdoor area. It's hidden behind office buildings and hotels, which is nice for privacy but makes Ubers very difficult to call as they cancel when they cannot find the gate. We stayed here because we have family in Mission Hills thinking we were very close, however, it was a 10 minute drive to the neighborhood. The proximity is directly up the canyon and very misleading because it's geographically close, but not a close commute. All of this was okay and we still would have given the property a better review if not for the owners treatment of us on Saturday night. There were 6 of us staying at the property, and Saturday night we invited exactly 5 friends over to play games and hangout for the 4th of July. We're in the living room playing board games when we get a knock on the door and it's the police. Apparently the owner had been watching the cameras (there are like 8 outside) and was under the impression we were having a party. We think because people came and went in separate Ubers and that triggered notifications on the gate. I didn't have my phone on me, so had missed calls from property management, so the owners felt the next logical step was to call the police on their guests. The officer rung the doorbell and was clearly frustrated that he'd even been called, as there was no outside noise and there were 8 people in the living room playing Twister. The officer's words verbatim were "The owner called the police and thinks you guys are having a party. Obviously that's not the case. I literally do not care." and he left in such a hurry we only had time to say “thank you sir”. It was that ridiculous. So all in all the property is beautiful and well secluded, but not private. You'll have difficulty getting Ubers and you're not close to Mission Hills, but don't get too comfortable in your secluded space as the owners are watching you on camera and will call the police on you for playing board games late at night.

Amazing home!

The entire experience was beyond wonderful! The house was a bit tricky to locate but the privacy was phenomenal! Huge yard we were able to fit 2-3 cars easily. Beautiful backyard that was relaxing. The house itself was very clean inside and out! Stacey was available for all of questions and concerns within seconds. I would highly recommend this beautiful and specious home to anyone and we will be staying there again in the future. Thank you for the kind hospitality!

Property is great and in great location

This property is a great cozy accommodation with nice decor, furnishing, great outdoor patio and awesome parking spaces available on the property. As you may see from location it is in hotel circle area with many choices of restaurants, beaches and entertainment. I would love to come back to this property again on my next trip to SD. The property management is very prompt to respond and hospitable.
