Quiet Getaway, but close enough to other attractions.

This was a perfect house for a quiet getaway but close enough to San Diego, the beaches, and hiking in the mountains if you wanted more to do. I would definitely go back and recommend this home. We went in the summer but I bet it would be great in the winter also. FEEL RIGHT AT HOME!

Lovely Mountain Escape

We loved this home for our weekend getaway from San Diego. It is a cute cabin that has been updated, and is well appointed and modern. It is very clean, and has multiple dedicated spaces for enjoyment. The hot tub with the cute lights was amazing in the recent snow storm :) And on the night we didn’t want to go outside, the rustic fireplace kept us very warm. Overall I cannot wait to go back, and I hope you check it out too!

Thanksgiving with the family.

We booked for our visit with my family who lives in the area. This place was the perfect in between for Descanso & Campo. The house is tucked away off the beaten path and quite peaceful. It’s not remote so there are neighbors. The Wi-Fi worked wonderfully. The house is beautifully maintained outside and the inside is so cute. We really enjoyed the home & the purpose it served. The kitchen is great with just the right amenities. I was able to cook using the stove & oven making cakes & various dishes to bring to thanksgiving. The shower is gorgeous & we loved the water pressure & how nicely it was done. The central ac/heat worked wonderfully for the cold nights & beautiful days during this time of year. We really enjoyed our stay and will keep it in mind for future travel to the area.
