Great location and comfortable

A great 3 bedroom house that is situated very close to Liberty Station. Renovated and quite nice, we had a relaxing time at the house. Host was accommodating with our travel plans that changed mid trip. Recommended for families and kids for sure.

Great entertaining house!

We arrived the Thursday morning of Thanksgiving. Sarah was wonderful and accommodated us by allowing us to get into the house early so we could prepare our Thanksgiving meal. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed to cook and get things ready. The kitchen and family room are very large and spacious, and there was plenty of room for the six of us. With the beautiful weather in San Diego we were able to sit outside and have some wine and lovely appetizers before the sun went down. The backyard is spacious and has a beautiful lemon tree right in the middle. The deck is comfortable with a fire pit and plenty of outdoor seating with string lights for ambiance. If you’re traveling with kids, this house is perfect. Plenty of outdoor activities and a separate indoor game room in the side garage. The location of this house is perfect. Minutes from liberty Station, 10 minutes from the airport and close to the highway entrance to get anywhere else in the San Diego It was a wonderful stay and I would highly recommend it to anyone who’s looking for an extended stay in the San Diego areaarea.
