Nice quiet neighborhood with lots of local hiking and lake fishing. 30 mins or less will get you to the beach, Sea World, Zoo, Safari Park, downtown and the San Diego Convention Center. Great resort-like backyard but...CAUTION: POOL IS NOT INTERNALLY FENCED. No cable but antennas, Wi-Fi, Netflix, Amazon Prime. Master bedroom and three average rooms upstairs. 500 sq/ft 'play room' with a couch and single bed downstairs... along with a other very comfortable couches in other areas.

Beautiful house with an amazing pool and backyard. Only half an hour from San Diego and lots of attractions. The hosts are friendly and very helpful. Highly recommend!
Property was extremely nice, the kids loved the pool in particular jumping from the rock. Sharon and Greg were very good hosts, always in touch to ensure we were fine with everything, clean beautiful house in a very nice neighborhood. I would definitely recommend their property for a vacation.
First I want to say Sharon and Greg are amazing Hosts. Checking in and out was extremely easy and they provide a Note book for the house and house rules. If we had any questions they responded to calls or text quickly. The house and property is amazing we loved it. The house was very clean and renter friendly. The kitchen and BBQ areas are fantastic future renters will love it. The best part was the pool and jacuzzi it is perfect after a long day of site seeing in various locations in San Diego. Thank You Sharon and Greg 😊

Wonderful vacation spot for younger kids
We had a wonderful time at this house for my kids' spring break. My 11 year old daughter and 6 year old son enjoyed all the facilities in the back yard - the heated pool, the hot tub, the 5 hole golf, the ping pong table - all of it. The owners were very accommodating of all our requests. They even brought over a lamp within an hour or two when we discovered one of the reading lamps in the bedroom was not working. The house is a 20-30 min drive away from downtown San Diego so we had an easy time going in and out of town to sightsee. We highly recommend this house for any family with kids!

This home is simply amazing!
Wow! When I looked at the pictures and booked this home, I thought this would work for our family get together. But until we got there, I didn’t understand how awesome it was and that it would be way beyond my expectations. Sharon was amazing to work with, provided tips and insights to her home, answered all questions and was very warm and caring. The home was immaculate and the kitchen/living room open concept layout with an island was perfect to stand around, have some food and drink and spend time with each other. That being said, the outside is like something out of a luxurious resort catalog. Multiple areas with chairs and tables to sit and mingle. Some with shade and some where the golden sunshine can beam on your face. The fire pit area with many comfortable chairs was a perfect place to congregate after the sun went down and provided a warm and cozy ambiance. The ping pong table and putting green added a nice little opportunity to have a little family fun and competition, and the heating lamps outside help take off the chill as it got cooler. The pool and hot tub round out this paradise. And so much more! We left last week, and I keep daydreaming about this place, and told my family that we need to go back and stay there next year. If you plan on staying in the area, my family and I agree that this is the place to stay. Thanks again to Sharon and her family for helping to make this a special memory

Beautiful, comfortable, and welcoming home
The Gregory family has a beautiful home in Poway. Sharon was very easy to work with, she's a great communicator and the "how to" guide at the house was handy. We stayed with five people across three generations and everyone was delighted.
The backyard was certainly the highlight of our stay. We enjoyed cool dips in the pool and lingered in the relaxing hot tub. We also made use of the putting green, ping pong, fire pit, and BBQ. We comfortably dined both inside and outside. The bluetooth speaker tower allowed us to keep our road trip playlist going throughout our stay.
There are lots of cozy places in the house to curl up with a book or craft. The kids were able to watch their favorite Netflix movies. The house has solid WiFi so my husband and I were able to connect to work when necessary.
The downstairs "playroom" bedroom space was perfect for my Mom who has some mobility issues. There are grab rails throughout its en suite bathroom. She was able to move between all the downstairs spaces safely and comfortably.
If we find ourselves in the San Diego area again, I'd definitely put this property at the top of our list!

Beautiful home with great amenities
Sharon was not only pleasant to work with but was accessible and very accommodating. The Gregory family surprised us with some nice refreshments and snacks as well as coupons. The home had so much character and clean. Our families had an amazing time because of the beautiful and spacious backyard with ideal entertainment that made our stay especially enjoyable. I would highly recommend this place and would definitely love to stay here again the next time I visit San Diego. The location was convenient as it was not too far from Legoland, Safari Park, Belmont Park and Sea World. Thanks again to the Gregory family for making our stay memorable and enjoyable.

Fun place to stay!
We really enjoyed our time at this home. The owners were very welcoming and helpful. It was so fun to swim and play outside. It was really nice to have a pool because when kids got tired they could be done and go inside. We walked to the park close by to play basketball and play on the slides. The kitchen had everything we needed. We cooked and ate dinner outside a few times, and loved it. We also really enjoyed sitting by the fire and visiting late into the night.
Thank you!

It looked just like the pictures, nice and clean
It was great, beautiful outside area great place to beat the heat or just relax and chill with the family. The pool was nice and looked great with the different lights at night. Grill area and fire pit were also pluses along with the ping pong and golf. The inside was also clean and neat and very relaxing, with more than enough space for my family of 6. The owners were very nice and accessible if needed. They also helped me surprise my wife for her birthday by leaving her a small gift. I definitely recommend this place if your looking for a nice getaway from your everyday life..
