Garden Oasis
Our host met with us to show us the amazing gardens surrounding this stunning property. which included a porch off the living room and our own garden patio area. There were small oases cleverly tucked in all over the property, which was blooming with Bird of Paradise plants. The property was immaculate, and it had everything we needed, down to ice packs for a lunch. The location was fabulous, with restaurant suggestions from the host in walking distance. We would definitely return to the property, and we would highly recommend it to others.

WOW!
This place is simply outstanding. A 1920's craftsman home that Kent has lovingly restored to its full glory. He made a career of high-end rehabs and the quality, care, and attention to detail show in every square foot. A very large 1-br apartment with 2 decks, a big patio and front porch and complete privacy. There's a very interesting bookshelf and Kent even let me borrow one on the promise to return it the next time we are in town. Off street parking in a very quiet neighborhood, just outside of Balboa Park. Quiet, quiet, quiet. This is the place we will try to stay every time we come to town.

Paradise on earth!
Kent was an amazing host and has a gorgeous property that we fell in love with. It is a large, comfortable space surrounded by lush gardens he maintains with utmost care and precision. Open the windows to enjoy fresh air from the fruit and flowering trees while listening to all the exotic birds and zen fountains. Excellent location and wonderful neighborhood, close to the expressway, Balboa Park, and lots of delightful food and drink options nearby.

Wonderful property, with even more wonderful host
Obviously from all other reviews, this property and location are amazing, with beautiful gardens to enjoy, and easy walking to so many fun spots in North Park, South Park, Balboa. Kent was so easy to connect with, and communicated quickly at all times. The house is a perfect size for 2 people. Bed is comfortable and large! The shower has shampoo/conditioner/soap available, it has great hot water and pressure, and lots of fluffy towels to use afterwards. We grilled twice during our stay, and enjoyed the ease of the grill, the relaxing environment of the patio with water feature and pretty pergola over the seating area. It is also great to have washer/dryer available, as we were there for the SD 1/2 marathon and had clothes to clean after running! Kent and his home made for wonderful memories and experiences during our trip. Thanks!

Welcome Home!
From the moment we walked in we felt at home. All our needs had been considered and provided for. The location was outstanding. Kent's suggestions on dining and things to do were spot on. We especially enjoyed outdoor dining options right at our home. The sound of water & green canopies everywhere were so relaxing. We would highly recommend this treetop oasis!

Everything about our stay was wonderful, from the personal greeting by Kent to the location (so close to the park and all the great restaurants and neighborhood of North Park) to the comfort and Craftsman elegance of the unit itself. We had mixed weather while we were were visiting. On the nice-weather days we really enjoyed both the charming porch and courtyard and ability to walk around the lovely neighborhood and to 30th street and all it offers. But we also loved just hanging out and reading or watching a movie during the rainy morning or two, from our private cozy nest looking out into the lush tropical oasis that Kent has created. It truly is like being in a magical tree house! Looking forward to our next visit already - and thank you Kent, for being such a great host!
