Travel Writer's Pad

Maggie is a fantastic host & The Travel Writer's Pad is a charming & comfortable place to stay. We especially liked how clean it was & the yard was perfect for our little poodle. The back patio & yard is a great place to hangout. Just like the photos show, it is lovely. There are so many special touches & amenities, we didn't lack for anything. The neighborhood is nice & in a good location, with many restaurants & stores close by, along with many attractions & beaches just a short drive away. Upon arrival, we were greeted by Cecilia who gave us a informative tour of the house & grounds. This was a very nice touch. Unfortunately, we stayed at a place in Oceanside that was nothing like the photos. It was horrible. That is not the case with The Travelers Writer's Pad. The photos show what a lovely place this is. We highly recommend a stay here.

Very Nice property, Clean and prepared for all our family needs including our dog. Lovely outdoor space and very quiet neighborhood during the day & night.

The property was beautiful. The yard was amazing. Maggie was great on all the details. We were so happy that it had air conditioning as it was HOT for San Diego. My kids and grandkids came; they loved the big yard, barbecuing and playing in the sprinkler. It was a wonderful time had by all. Thanks, Maggie.

I enjoyed this charming property very much. The hosts are gracious and helpful. My dog loved the big backyard.

What a FANTASTIC place to stay. Our hostess was the mostest! She has created the perfect place where doggies are taken into consideration. An enormous back yard to play and throw the ball, a little dog park in the back area I. The back and so many different places to sit outside and relax and a great BBQ was available for a great outdoor dining experience . Inside the house is spacious, clean, roomy and cozy at the same time. Great sized refrigerator/freezer. We were never at a loss for supplies. The kitchen was fully loaded including a Keurig with plenty of various coffees and creamers. There is a washer dryer outside in the garage but we didn’t get around to using it. The WIFI was strong enough to host six of us using it at the same time without a glitch or slowdown. We are looking coming back to this La Mesa treasure again in the future.

The home is extremely comfortable and the patio and back yard is terrific for a relaxing vacation (we used the outside extensively). The host met us on the 1st day, walked us around and through the property, has a wonderful personality and made us very confident that this was a terrific choice for a stay.

If you're looking for a centrally located gem this is it! The house was clean well decorated the yard is beautiful and let me tell you Maggie has thought of everything to make your stay peaceful and worry free!

This charming cottage was very comfortable. The 1940/1950 construction has been well preserved and maintained. The patio was cozy and the huge back yard was amazing. The location was perfect for East San Diego activities and there was easy access to Hwy 80.

Cute place with beautiful back yard

The property is lovely-spacious, attractive and spotless. The host is delightful and provided little amenities to make our stay special. She also did an in-person walkthrough. This was great as I was was traveling with my two young dongs and was able ask her questions in person. Total thumbs up/paws up! We look forward to returning!
