We had an amazing time in San Diego staying at Rachel’s house. Perfect for a family of four and our dog - there is an awesome park within a 3 min walk. It’s an older house but we were comfy - especially with the fireplace on during a colder evening. Really great location near beaches, Balboa Park, good eats. The neighborhood was safe and quiet. And street parking was never an issue. Thanks again!

Wonderful Stay!

This house was perfect for our visit to San Diego! We stayed with our two young children and appreciated the extra touches to make our stay easy (step stool for the kids, laundry detergent supplied, among other things). The location was great for everything we did. It was also on a quiet street and we had no issue with parking. The host was always quick to communicate and check in on us. Highly recommend this house!

Nice family house near a great park

Our family of four (2 young kids) had a great time in San Diego. The house had everything we needed as a family. The mattresses were comfortable and the location was central for us. Only a five minute drive to the zoo and enough room for every one. The porch swing was a hit with the kids!

Gem of a house in North Park neighborhood

This house was awesome, as was the owner who was super helpful. The house is in an adorable, cute, safe neighborhood. Pretty much everywhere we went was 10 minutes away! I am really particular about noise and comfort when sleeping and the rooms were so cozy and quiet. The kitchen is well stocked, the house gets nice natural light, has multiple seating options for meals, and had plenty of towels, including beach towels.Would absolutely stay here again and hope to in the future.
