Will stay here again
Only reason location isn’t 5 star is because it was tricky to back out onto the main road. There’s nothing that can be done about it and everything else was perfect! I’ll be staying here again when I visit my kids.

Super convenient stay in a lovely property
Very convenient located property. The casita is perfect for two people and is tastefully decorated. We enjoyed morning coffee on the patio while watching the hummingbirds in the yard.

Perfect San Diego Getaway
My teenage son and I loved Barb’s place. It was perfect! The amount of space was just right. The location was fantastic! Easy access to the freeway and we seemed to be 20-25 minutes, at most, from most major SD attractions. Barb supplied body wash, shampoo/conditioner, hair dryer, bath towels, laundry detergent, dishwasher detergent, toilet paper, trash bags, and even had water and snacks. This was so thoughtful and convenient since most guests are flying in and not able to bring all of those items. The bedding was clean and comfortable. We had plenty of quiet and privacy. I sleep with a white noise machine and highway noise wasn’t an issue at all. As others have mentioned, the street is somewhat busy but we didn’t have any problems backing out. Just be careful. There is a bathtub but the stopper wasn’t holding the water. It wasn’t a big deal to me but it might be if you have small children. Also, there ARE curtains on the door and back door. This place was great and Barb was fast to reply to texts. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it for couples or small families.

Fantastic Stay
The Cottage in the Garden was a great choice for our vacation in San Diego. It is a unique, modern, cool, and homey place that we called home. It has everything that one could ask for. The hosts have considered every detail...right down to warm chocolate chip cookies and a bottle of wine to greet you upon arrival. I am VERY picky in selecting where my family stays. This is a FANTASTIC place to stay. Consider this place for your next stay!

This little cottage overlooking a beautiful little garden was perfect for our visit to the San Diego area. The hosts were attentive and answered all of our questions via emails/text. The cottage was clean and roomy enough for our family of three.

Sweet, private guesthouse
This is a sweet property for one or two people. It's very well laid out, very well thought out. The hosts were very helpful, but not not in anyway intrusive. We arrived very late and our hosts had a bottle of wine chilling. There was some wonderful coffee beans provided for our first morning joe. The entrance way to our private guest house was well lit, so coming and going after dark was easy. A very enjoyable, comfortable stay. Thank you! – Anne

Great stay in a quiet setting
Barb and Gary have done a wonderful job at their rental. Clean, quiet, great location, and very close to some of San Diego’s finest destinations. Snacks are left for the guests and their backyard is a peaceful retreat.

Pleasant cottage, good experience
The property was clean, pleasing, roomy enough for the two of us. It had everything we needed. The bed and couch were very comfortable. The property owners were attentive to our needs and proactive in making us aware of any potential issues. They even had free oranges growing in the back yard! Overall we had a very pleasant stay. We reserved the place as it was within walking distance of our son in Las Mesa. If you are walkers like us, you should know though that Bancroft Street does not have sidewalks for a short stretch and it can be a busy street at times. Other than that, the property was top notch and we have no complaints.
