Lovely home!
My family had a reunion in San Diego and half of us stayed in this home. It was very clean and well stocked. Kitchen is large and had everything needed to cook large meals. Furniture and beds were comfortable. Neighborhood was quiet. Views were fantastic. Highly recommend!

Perfect getaway with friends
We had a perfect 4 night stay at Jen's property. Everything was like described in the listing. The backyard is stunning and invites you to spend as much time as possible outside. We enjoyed the backyard BBQ, the hot tub and the spacious common areas. The kitchen is well stocked and has a regular coffee machine as well as a Keurig coffee pod machine. It was quiet and we felt safe. We did visit Balboa Park, Coronado, Downtown and the drive was fine. There's lots of parking at Jen's place too. Communication couldn't have been better. So, all in all, we're happy we chose Jen's place and will definitely stay again if we're in town.

Wonderful outdoor space
Terrific home for parents, grandparents and kids. We spent the evenings in the back yard playing games and enjoying the view. The kitchen was great and we liked the open floor plan. Would highly recommend
