Great place to stay!

This place is charming with much so much character. It is in a quiet neighborhood, centrally located in San Diego, and has great amenities. The hosts are communicative and provide information on the house and amenities. I appreciate how they sent videos on how the hot tub was to be used, how to turn on the firepit, etc. I would definitely stay here again!

Everything was perfect. The house was just as in the pictures. The San Diego attractions were all easy to get to. The communication with the owners and the ease of checking in and out was great. Will use this property again if we ever come back to San Diego.

Beautiful home, great location

Sam and David were great hosts and had everything ready upon our arrival. The house had all the amenities we needed and was within close proximity to all the places we visited. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful as well. The backyard gardens were beautiful and my child loved searching for lizards and hummingbirds back there. We would absolutely stay here again!

Beautiful House & Outside Space - Great Stay !!

The house is beautiful, and the outside area is magnificent. Sam and David have thought of all the little things. Plenty of household and bathroom essentials, which was greatly appreciated. Their communication was excellent! Their how to videos for the hot tub and fire pit were excellent. The firepit is cozy and easy to use, as is the hot tub.

San Diego Gem

We loved our stay. The house is charming, clean and comfortable. They have maintained the historic charm but it is updated with all of the modern amenities. The outdoor spaces are lovely as well. The house is conveniently located near the airport and in between Mission Hills, Balboa Park one direction and the Waterfront-Gaslamp District on the other. If you are up for getting your steps in, all of these are walkable. All communications were detailed and clear. We would gladly stay again!

wonderful home and garden in a quiet neighborhood

My son and daughter-in-law joined my husband and me for a long weekend in San Diego, and this house was perfect. It was so much more than a place to stay that was convenient to Balboa Park and Gaslamp; we loved just hanging out in the house and its garden. We cooked, watched tv, played games, sat in the hot tub, and just enjoyed our time there. Our hosts have thought of almost everything--night lights conveniently set up, extra outlets, just about everything you'd need in the kitchen, etc. It felt spacious and cozy at the same time. While we didn't use the third bedroom, we appreciated having the extra powder room. It was on the pricy end for us but well worth it, and the hosts were responsive when we had to reduce our stay from 5 nights to 4. They were also available via text whenever we had questions but never intrusive. Thank you, Sam and David!

Mother's Day Meet Up

We had a wonderful long weekend in San Diego at this beautiful restored craftsman home! The property has three comfortable beds (with their own bathrooms), nice long dining table and a spacious living area with large flat screen tv. We ate out on our time there but the kitchen would have had everything needed to cook and was sparkling clean. One great feature is the back deck table and chairs to enjoy coffee and the morning bird songs, or the lower garden chairs around the fire pit. The back garden area is quite beautiful and you'll see many hummingbirds buzzing in and out. The owners have done a magnificent job of combining the original pieces of the home with modern touches. Communication was easy and helpful. You won't be disappointed with your stay here! A+++

Great Place!

This is a perfect location. It’s a nice neighborhood near Hillcrest and a short drive to anywhere you would want to go in San Diego. Lots of good restaurants near by. The house is spotless and the owners respond very quickly. The back of house is lovely with the hot tub, fire pit and lovely view.

Lovely older house with wonderful owners!

Sam and David’s home is beautifully renovated and decorated, keeping the character of the original house but with many modern conveniences—especially that beautiful kitchen! Sam and David were wonderful enough to accommodate our request for an early check in, which was much appreciated after a long early flight. They sent us short, clear videos to make sure we knew how to work the hot tub, fire pit, etc. I suspect their housekeeping may have been a bit rushed as a result of our early arrival—we found a dirty pan in the cupboard and some items (salt, dishwasher liquid, etc) had not been restocked. Our hosts quickly dropped off additional supplies when we got in touch, though. It would have been great to have an information sheet in the house with details such as where to leave trash (we initially assumed there was no recycling as there weren’t bins in the house), where to look for additional linens (dining room sideboard), etc. Supplying some dish cloths in the wonderful kitchen would be helpful, too—I hate to put nice cookware through the dishwasher, but also was leery of the well used sponge in the kitchen. The beds were all comfortable and we enjoyed the use of the hot tub and the amazing views from the garden. I also appreciated that there was plenty of room for everyone to eat, relax in the living room, and generally feel at home. Notes for future guests: -the listing notes that the house is not wheelchair accessible, but if anyone in your party has other mobility concerns you should be aware that the steps to the front door are older and there is no railing. My son with minor mobility challenges managed fine but just be careful! -the front loading washing machine seal should be wiped out regularly to prevent mildew, or even better the door should be left open after running a load to dry out (this would be a good suggestion to note in a guest information sheet) -if you find one cycle of the dryer is not getting your clothes very dry, Google the manual for it. We learned that there’s a heat exchange past the lint trap that needs regular cleaning—it cut the very long drying time in half! (But still be prepared for laundry to take a while.) -the kitchen and one bathroom seem to share a venting system, so run both fans at once. We would definitely consider this home for a future stay, it’s in a great location and has a lot of nice touches. The responsiveness of the owners whenever we needed something was great!

Fabulous short stay before a hectic conference

What a gorgeous home! We couldn't fault it at all! Sam and David were so responsive to any queries we had. The rooms were spacious with comfortable beds. The property was super clean. And the outdoor patio area was a real treat - we loved the fire place and spa after big days of walking! What a beautiful and tranquil neighbourhood. Yet so close to the busier/touristy areas. I hope one day to return with my family! Thank you again!

Nothing short of amazing

We can’t say enough good things about our stay. The house is spacious, immaculate, has beautiful decor, gorgeous gardens …everywhere you look is breathtaking. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. Our first night there the neighbors had a graduation party and had a mariachi band performing! The band was good but ended up playing pretty late. The hosts refunded us for that night for the inconvenience. We didn’t even ask they just did it. They were so helpful with suggestions on where to eat, etc. We really enjoyed everything!
