Hillcrest Hideaway one block from downtown action, dog friendly w/ private yard

This charming Hillcrest cottage is located just one block from downtown Hillcrest, half a mile away from Balboa Park and so many other attractions. Downtown Hillcrest has tons of shops and is known for having some of the best restaurants/bars in all of San Diego. If you plan to stay in the Hillcrest area everything is within walking distance. The Sunday farmers market is also within walking distance.  If you are looking to venture outside of Hillcrest, the freeways are close by for convenient access and the beaches are just 20 minutes away.

The house has books, and several games for all ages. There is cable and a DVD player with some DVD's to pick from as well. The kitchen and living room have that open floorplan so nobody misses out on any of the action. The kitchen is fully stocked for those who like to cook at home. If BBQing is more your style, you can do that too! The front and backyards are fully fenced so there is no worry for those who bring their dog.* 

This cottage has two bedrooms, both with queen beds, and there are two bathrooms, plus a washer and dryer. The backyard has a cozy seating area and small firepit to enjoy during the evenings. 

Pet friendly! No more than 2 dogs (no cats allowed). Non-refundable pet fee and Pet Policy acceptance required. All pets must be disclosed at time of booking. Thank you!
