Summary: Beautiful…the landscape, hummingbirds, something for everyone to do, the secret room where we told ghosts stories in, s’mores over the fire pit. It’s just so relaxing and homey. The goats and fresh eggs were so much fun. The books and magazine! A great place to stay whether you are 2 or 70. It was priceless for our family. Thank you so much!
Sherry H. Mar 22, 2025 02:47:56 AM
Summary: The pictures (as lovely as they are) do not do this home justice. Every window offers something new. As a birder I enjoyed drinking coffee and watching them flit here and there. We have stayed in a number of rentals over the years. We found this property to be very well appointed and stocked. The furniture was all comfortable. The beds and bedding were very good There were spaces to curl up in for alone time and also spaces to gather as a group. 10 of 10

Summary: Great location, Great home, every inch of the home was inviting and well thought out. Would recommend 10 times over
Janet R. Aug 12, 2024 09:55:37 PM
Summary: Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The house was perfect for a three-generation family gathering. We had room to spread out and loved the well-equipped kitchen and eating spaces. The pool was perfect for the kids and they enjoyed feeding the goats and checking for eggs. The view from the back porch was magnificent. The adults loved sitting on the porch with coffee in the morning and wine in the evening. The hosts couldn't have been nicer or more helpful. They responded immediately with every question we had before and during our stay. Would highly recommend this home.

Summary: We absolutely loved our stay at Melinda’s property. It’s more stunning in person. The house is spacious and for our group of 12 comfortably. The pool and outdoor area are lovely and provide a breathtaking view of the sunset. I could not recommend this place enough!
Mark W. Jul 23, 2024 04:46:32 AM
Summary: One of our best vacations ever. The house, the view and location were perfect for our three generation family of 11 (6 adults and 5 teens). We found it to be immaculately cleaned and was fully equipped throughout the house especially in the kitchen and with plenty of pool toys. The pool, cabana, hot tub and fire pit got plenty of use! The hosts (Melinda and John) were very responsive to any of our questions or requests with great communication both before and during our visit. Fully recommend a stay here.

Thank you both for the incredible hospitality, our family cherished our time together, and we hope to be back soon! - The Nevins

Situated just a short drive away from the center of San Diego and surrounding areas, yet nestled in a serene and tranquil locale, this property strikes the perfect balance between accessibility and seclusion. The highlight of our stay was the panoramic views of the city skyline that greeted us from every corner of the property. Every moment of our stay was accompanied by a breathtaking backdrop that seemed straight out of a postcard. The accommodations were nothing short of perfection. The home exuded elegance and comfort, with every amenity meticulously curated to ensure a comfortable stay. The pool and spa are exquisite. The goats and hens provided a unique and charming dimension to our stay. In addition to the impeccable facilities, hosts Melinda and John delivered exceptional service. Courteous, attentive, and always eager to assist, they went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of our stay was seamless and memorable. We can't wait to return for another unforgettable stay!
