Your Home Away From Home! 12 min. to SanDiego! Kids & Pets OK! Kitch/wifi/yard/

Perfect for your family and your furry friends. Bill and Linda were great host they are minutes away if you are in need or request anything. Nice quiet location in the heart of San Diego.

We loved this cozy yet spacious, comfortable with everything we needed hideaway. The owners were accommodating, helpful and quick to communicate. The beds were so comfortable and the yard was perfect for our dog. We enjoyed daily morning walks to the coffee shops. It was Perfect for our family! Thank you for everything! We hope to return!

We came to San Diego to work as medical travelers for the winter. After a really rough month in Pacific Beach, the house in La Mesa became available. Staying in the La Mesa house was such a pleasure. There was extra space for me, a king sized bed for my husband, and a fenced yard for the cat and dog. Upon arrival, Linda had gifts waiting for everyone. The upstairs downstairs set up worked well for our sometimes different schedules. The beds were comfortable with nice pillows and linens. Thanks for the extra sheets! We ended up grilling a lot and enjoyed eating outside on the patio. The Farmers Market in downtown La Mesa every Friday night, was about a mile walk. Shops, restaurants, and bars all a mile away. Great owners, location and property. Many many thanks for our home away from home. Lyn, John, Scrappy and Othello.

We booked 2 months while we purchased a home. The location could not be any better, very convenient to downtown shopping and restaurants and grocery stores. It was a very quiet neighborhood. It’s a little tricky to find for deliveries for food and Amazon. It was a very warm 2 months for La Mesa and while AC Is installed, it’s upstairs and doesn’t cool off the bedroom that well. Downstairs stayed warm so we used their fan to cool off. The difference in temp upstairs being cooled and downstairs is noticeable. There is no direct sun in the afternoon which is a plus. TV has cable starter package so channel selection is limited. The water pressure is very good and turns warm very fast. It is small downstairs but for 2 people, it was enough for us. The spiral staircase was a bit tricky for the dogs but they adjusted after a few days. The barbecue outside was fabulous and was our preferred method of cooking as kitchen is very small. It was stocked well on utensils and spices but no storage for groceries so we left them on the table in there. The owners were very quick to respond to a couple minor issues. I recommend this place especially regarding its proximity to downtown. It’s not luxurious but it was fine for us.

My family and I absolutely hated our entire stay at this location. It was our first time rented out someone else's home using vrbo. The home was not ready for us to move in even though the owner's stated that it was ready and had been cleaned. The home was dusty, the stairs was loose (safety hazard) I almost slipped and got injured, there was not adequate cooling only a single wall unit in living room, the shower curtain was disgusting, poor lighting in kitchen, and there was no stove.

My family and I stayed here for 2 weeks while our house was in escrow and it was absolutely perfect for the occasion.

I should start by saying that Linda and Bill are just fantastic. Quick to respond not only thru the booking process but also during the stay if any questions arise. The location of this property proved to be fantastic. Central to all and less than 15 minutes to any place we needed to go. Neighborhood is quiet, friendly, and nicely secluded. We stayed with Linda/Bill for just over 2 months while relocating to San Diego due to job transfer. It was exactly what we needed, budget friendly, all the amenities we could need, very pet friendly ( our dog is still missing the huge yard), and a very cozy and comfortable home. Beyond the home and the hosts extraordinaire must make mention of the proximity and access to shopping (Vons and Sprouts are less than a mile), Shopping Center, Targets, Wal-marts and certainly many great local eateries; Craft Kitchen still our favorite just blocks away and the many eateries in the Village. Highligh recommend staying with Linda and Bill....

Linda and Bill were very responsive. We had a light go out and they came over the next day and fixed it. Our dogs really loved the yard. Overall a great experience.

This property was an excellent value. We stayed here with a large family for over two weeks, and really enjoyed our stay. The downstairs/daylight basement living area is comfortable and cozy, the bedroom on the upstairs/main level is excellent, and the outdoor cooking and eating area is great! The only minor complaints were with a bathroom doorknob that was very difficult to lock, and some of the cookware in the kitchen area in the basement (the house has an inductive heating hotplate, but several of the pots and pans were incompatible with induction heating and would not work. We had to transfer food to another pot, or use the burner on the outdoor BBQ grill). These minor items were communicated to the owners on checking out, and I am confident they will correct the issues as they were always very responsive and helpful. The kitchen is tiny, as expected, but is adequate for basic food prep. We brought a crock-pot and rice-cooker with us so that meals could be ready for us when we got home after a long day playing in San Diego, and this worked very well for us. When we tried to cook a full large meal, using the microwave, electric skillet, and hot plate all at the same time, the breaker tripped. The owners were very responsive and helped us to recover quickly- Thank you! Using the BBQ burner instead of the hotplate to finish cooking got our meal done just fine. While having a larger kitchen, an oven, and a washer/dryer would have made things better, any place that had those amenities were significantly more expensive. I believe we got our money's worth and then some with this property. Would recommend to friends, especially for short stays and small families.

I'm not sure what I can say about Linda and Bill that would do them justice. They were very helpful anytime we needed anything, and made sure that we had everything we needed for a pleasant stay. My fiancee and I stayed at this location for a little over 2 months, (it was a weird scenario), but it was a blast. We were very centrally located, and never had too far to go to do what we wanted. The neighbors were great, the house was great, and Linda and Bill were amazing. I would definitely stay here again, and recommend this house to anyone traveling to San Diego.
