Central to everything we wanted to do: every time we mapped a route it was a 15-minute drive. Fantastic view over a small canyon made the back patio feel private. Slightly awkward access to 3rd bedroom. Could use more silverware. No sign or smell of previous pet guests. Ample parking on a quiet street, which was good as we had an F150 4-door. Driveway on the small side. If Balboa Park's attractions are on your to-do list, this is the house for you. ##### Lindsay K. Stayed 8 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sandesh B.

We loved the back patio overlooking the canyon. Overall a very nice house but a major con were the king and queen beds. They were ridiculously creaky - like loud screeching sounds every time you get in, out, or move around in bed. Given the price and quality of rest of the property, they need to replace these beds ASAP! ##### Alexia A. Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kiavash A.

Quaint, cute neighborhood. Easy access to the surrounding area. House was close to other family members. Appeared to not have been completely made ready for the season. Back deck had alot of debree that needed to be swept up. Cushions on furniture were wet. Rug on deck in ill repair and some of the out door lights did not work. Kitchen sink handle was broken and had fallen off and the sprayer leaked as well.Main bath had double sinks but one of the sinks didn't seem to have hot water. Toilet handle broke and taped and shower control in main bath needs repair.When getting ready for the event we were to attend a fuse had blown and we had to reach out to report the issue. The problem had been resolved by the time we returned. Cute and comfortable place, just could have used a bit more TLC. Did have a bit of an issue getting the information for access to the residence. I was told that my ID was not on file and could not get information until I sent a picture of myself along with my ID.Thought that was a bit odd.

We even brought our own electric scooters and road to some close breweries in the neighborhood. The house was big enough for us to hang out and relax after long days.

There was great communication from the property manager and easy check in and out. We cooked dinners and ate out on the back deck, which has a wonderful view.

The dryer was out of service, but we were made aware of the situation before our arrival and a drying rack was provided for our use. The outdoor area is great! View is great! Neighborhood is quiet and houses are super cute and well kept. Welcome goodies and note were appreciated and a nice touch. Would stay here again! Thank you for hosting us. ##### Tauni B. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amber H. Jan 14, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Stay We loved the character of this home. It still has some of the original mid century charm. The 3 bedrooms worked great, as the teenager liked his kind of secluded space the back. The view is amazing, as is the patio. We definitely hung out there when we could. We had a few friends come over, and they were definitely jealous of our place over the one that they had rented. The cleaning staff needs to do a better about cleaning the out of sight places like under the couch and beds. But, everything else was clean. We had a bit of an issue with the electricity. We plugged something in and the lights went off in the front of the house. Rich was pretty quick about getting back to us, and sent out an electrician. There was an outlet with wiring issues. It was fixed, and there were no more problems with the rest of the stay. We kind of chalked it up to part of the character and age of the house. The neighborhood is fantastic! Very cute, and nice to walk around. Also we were able to walk to some great restaurants. Breakfast at Matteo was fantastic. Carbon BBQ was really good as well. We walked around and checked out the small and eclectic shops. We will definitely stay here again when we come back to San Diego. ##### Amber H. Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Leslie H. Apr 18, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Communication #### The potential to be a gem I want to start with all the positive things about this place and I hope that the property owners will read this review so that they can get it to a 5 star review. This place looks like the pictures they have posted online. It's in a quiet neighborhood that is central to everything! We loved how close it was to the airport, beaches, and Balboa Park. There is plenty of room for eight people to stay here. There is air conditioning and heating. We stayed two days in 95 degree weather and the air conditioning works great. A tip for owners is to post instructions on how to turn the heat/cold on or off as it took us awhile to figure that out. There is instant hot water (unless a breaker trips, we will get to that later), and the kitchen is wonderful. A huge fridge/freezer, a large stove and and lots of spices for cooking. Most things you would need to cook a meal is available. For the owners, adding a recycle can in the kitchen would make it easy to separate what goes into the trash and what goes into the recycle bins on the side of the house. The bathroom closest to the Master needs a larger trash can- and a couple extra sacks would be great so trash can be emptied. The Master bedroom mattress is too soft :( but might work for you. The patio is a lot of fun and overlooks a gorgeous view. There is outdoor seating and lights and the washer and dryer are also found in a little shed on the back patio...kind of different but it works. Just watch out for mosquitos at night. So why did we deduct two stars? The property manager-Rich Sherf. (Owners! take notes) We had a problem with the breaker tripping which caused us to not have hot water or power. We were trying to get ready for a wedding and we called the emergency number multiple times only to be sent straight to voicemail. Even before the problem of no power, messages sent to Rich would take a long time before we would receive a response. Usually an hour was an average response time. Once he had responded to our problem, he didn't resolve the problem at all. The electrical panel on the side of the house had a lock on it. (Owners, you need to leave a key for that box in case this happens again) Rich's response to it all was "so sorry about that" but then proceeded to do absolutely nothing. I don't know how much the owners are paying this guy but you need to find someone else to manage your property or do it yourself. I will not rent a VRBO that is managed by Rich Sherf. ##### Leslie H.

Space was good 3 bedrooms two baths but one bedroom is converted garage space so configuration is a bit awkward as you can access one bedroom from outside or through another bedroom. Also laundry located outside the house. ##### jeff h. Stayed 5 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### MaryLynn T.

We had a great stay at this property. Great location in a quiet neighborhood. Easy walk to South Park restaurants. Beautiful view off back deck! ##### Holly H.

Dec 28, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family Christmas in San Diego This property is located only a mile from our middle daughter and son in law's home in South Park. Our other reason for choosing this property was that it has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms to accommodate us and our son and younger daughter. The home is in a beautiful quiet neighborhood with a gorgeous view of the sunrise in the morning if you are an early riser. The 3rd bedroom and 2nd bath are located in back of the 2nd bedroom and there is a fairly big step down so maybe not ideal for people with young children or older folks. The big kitchen was great for our family because we always make Christmas cookies to decorate as well as other family favorites. The back deck is beautiful with a view of the canyon and would be perfect in warm weather. We took some nice walks with our dog and there is a cute little area with restaurants and shops in walking distance. I love beach type of decorating so that was perfect. We had a great time and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. ##### Linda G.

It had just the right amount of space for the 8 of us, never felt crowded. The patio is very nice, we very much enjoyed our morning coffee out there. Would definitely recommend to anyone! ##### Tyler Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Ocean Park Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Ocean-Park-Inn.h4207.Hotel-Information) > > [Embassy Suites by Hilton San Diego Bay Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Embassy-Suites-By-Hilton-San-Diego-Bay-Downtown.h5328.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton Inn San Diego-Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-San-Diego-Downtown.h551889.Hotel-Information) > > [Omni San Diego Hotel at the Ballpark](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Omni-San-Diego-Hotel.h982408.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyndham San Diego Bayside](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Wyndham-San-Diego-Bayside.h11177.Hotel-Information) > > [InterContinental San Diego by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-InterContinental-San-Diego.h26984236.Hotel-Information) > > [Bahia Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Bahia-Resort-Hotel.h18241.Hotel-Information) > > [Town and Country San Diego](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Town-And-Country-San-Diego.h21394.Hotel-Information) > > [Catamaran Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Catamaran-Resort-And-Spa.h24669.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Grand Del Mar](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Fairmont-Grand-Del-Mar.h1779742.Hotel-Information) > > [Manchester Grand Hyatt San Diego](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Manchester-Grand-Hyatt-San-Diego.h12073.Hotel-Information) > > [Hard Rock Hotel San Diego](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Hard-Rock-Hotel-San-Diego.h1731557.Hotel-Information) > > [Pendry San Diego](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Pendry-San-Diego.h16298963.Hotel-Information) > > [Keating Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Keating-Hotel.h1544039.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott Marquis San Diego Marina](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Marriott-Marquis-San-Diego-Marina.h24394.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton San Diego Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Sheraton-San-Diego-Hotel-And-Marina.h11109.Hotel-Information) > > [The Wayfarer San Diego](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-The-Wayfarer-San-Diego.h15555.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin San Diego Bayview](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-The-Westin-San-Diego-Downtown.h27516.Hotel-Information) > > [The Sofia Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-The-Sofia-Hotel.h1573807.Hotel-Information) > > [The US Grant, a Luxury Collection Hotel, San Diego](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-THE-US-GRANT.h10802.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton San Diego Bayfront](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Hilton-San-Diego-Bayfront.h1871645.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Yacht Harbor Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Best-Western-Yacht-Harbor-Hotel.h21527.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyndham Garden San Diego Near SeaWorld](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Wyndham-Garden-San-Diego-Near-SeaWorld.h40962.Hotel-Information) > > [Kona Kai San Diego](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Kona-Kai-San-Diego.h28118.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Plus Bayside Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Bayside-Inn.h5597.Hotel-Information) > > [Homewood Suites by Hilton San Diego Downtown/Bayside](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Homewood-Suites-By-Hilton-San-Diego-DowntownBayside.h13155016.Hotel-Information) > > [Pacific Terrace Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Pacific-Terrace-Hotel.h11528.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express San Diego Downtown by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-San-Diego-Downtown.h40681.Hotel-Information) > > [Margaritaville Hotel San Diego Gaslamp Quarter](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Solamar-San-Diego.h1117693.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Plus Island Palms Hotel & Marina](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Island-Palms-Hotel-Marina.h9660.Hotel-Information)
