Peaceful Retreat

Needed a place to stay w our adult children & this was perfect. Was graduation weekend for UCSD & we wanted somewhere away from the crowds! Everything in SD is spread out & the 20-30ish mins drive to anywhere we wanted to go wasn't bad at all in comparison to other places we could have stayed. Daughters slept in the room w the full bed & son on the couch Qn bed. We didn't spend much time at the property but enjoyed the fun, relaxed lake vibe while there. Everything was clean, worked well.

A Lovely Oasis

We had the best family stay at Paul and Lynn's place! It's such a great location right down the street from Lake Hodges, ideal for outdoor activities but also a relatively short drive to many stores, restaurants, the zoo, Petco Park, and the beach. The house is really cute, super clean, well-stocked, and very comfortable. We all slept very peacefully and enjoyed coffee in the morning outside on the deck with a beautiful scenic mountain view. Lots of outdoor seating and lounge space. I recommend staying here and would definitely stay again!

Wonderful Property!

My husband and I had a magical week here! The property is lovely and gave our 2 dogs plenty of room to roam. The lake trails and the neighborhood are fantastic. It was the perfect place to unplug and relax - and paint a rock or 2! The hosts respond quickly and had great suggestions for local spots although we spent most of our time enjoying the yard. Can’t wait to come back!

A dream property and dreamy hosts.

When people look for VRBO stays they have rarely any idea of the neighborhood or of the personalities of the hosts. I can say unequivocally these are the nicest most professional and friendly hosts I've ever encountered and their property is magical simply magical. The yard is lush oversized succulents and euphorbias cactuses poems fruit trees and all the neighbors are nice as well. This has been one of the nicest stays I've had with any VRBO.

Inviting Indoor/Outdoor Spaces and Gorgeous Garden Area

We travel to the San Diego area to visit our adult son and have stayed at several properties over the years. This was definitely a favorite. Unfortunately it rained a lot during our stay, so we weren't able to use the outdoor areas as much as we would have liked. But the indoor space was great for our stay, with the large picture windows making it feel open and almost as if we were outside. When the sun peeked out a bit, we drove into Temecula for some wine tasting, then stopped at the store on the way back and cooked dinner two nights. The hosts were very gracious and despite the wet weather, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here!

Much more impressive than the photos

My wife, our pups and I had an incredible stay here. We came down to do some business and visit family, and I only wish we never left the property. I have to say, as you drive up, you can begin to see the care they put into the home, and their intricate garden. Let me explain below. The home: This is in no way your average vacation rental. This is a beautiful, unique custom home. Vibrant tile work in the bathroom, and throughout the house. Artistic fish mosaic tile in the bathroom, natural terracotta tile in the kitchen separated by beautiful stone tile from the living area. If course there is a large smart TV, and a very fully equipped kitchen, very comfortable beds, and high-quality furniture. Again, not your standard vacation rental. Of course, I need to mention the beautiful sunrise behind the behind the spectacular mountain and over the lake - viewed right from the kitchen and entire living area - without looking for it. The mountain view is just as beautiful as the lake. Now for the yard. WOW! The yard itself has to be close to 1/2 acre (maybe larger). So much attention and time has gone into this. The third morning, I was still noticing different species of succulents and palms - and the canary island palm shade tree - just wait until you see it. This is a lush, fully fenced yard, very well furnished with top quality tables, chairs - and yes, cushions. I almost forgot to mention at least three decks with views. Who needs Hawaii. Also, in communicating with Lynn, she had mentioned that she left us a bowl of freshly picked passion fruit from the property. I can definitely say that was a first for us. With all of that, one thing that really stood out was, we ended up with a flat tire on our car the morning we were leaving. I texted Lynn in the morning to let her know, and she offered me a totally unsolicited late check out offer - like "take all of the time you need" since there were no other people checking in that evening. Who does that? Although we were there for a reason, this home, and setting are an absolute vacation destination in itself and I truly can't wait to go back again and again - just to go!

CHARMING, peaceful, & transcendent place to stay!

We picked this place to stay because the hosts were very responsive before we arrived, and the reviews were excellent. Upon arrival, the area WOW'd us with the open floor plan, lots of natural lighting, tidiness, and colorful artistic decor. You have great space, and it's quiet. We brought our two medium size dogs, and the outside (fully fenced yard) was large and plenty for them to run and play. It's also wood-chipped, which is excellent for the paws. We spent most of our time outdoors; the only two neighbors on the hill were practically hidden and silent. You can walk down the hill to the Mexican cantina or the county trails/lake Hodges. We drove a short distance into town, 12 minutes to DiCicco's Italian Restaurant (outstanding food & relaxing atmosphere). If you need an Organic health/grocery store, there is Jimbo's across the way, 2 minutes from the restaurant, and nearby coffee shop Black Rock Coffee Bar. The dogs enjoyed the long hikes, and the trails will give you the distance/mileage and direction to follow to the park/viewpoints/bridges. The lake had pelicans, ducks, and wildlife of birds if you enjoy birdwatching which we do. The wifi is fast and works terrific if this is a priority, and they have Ruko for later TV. Everything in the house is fully stocked for cooking and kitchen/bathroom supplies. I appreciated the stainless pots/pans as these are a healthier choice than the non-stick Teflon most VRBOs provide. Highly recommend it and would do this again. Lastly, we had the pleasure of meeting the host, Paul, in person, and he was very down-to-earth, kind, and relaxed. Lynn was very prompt, and personal and answered every question we had. Overall this was a good vibe stay! ~With Much Gratitude, Melissa &Hector, Willow & Preston

Labor Day weekend 2022 family get away

We enjoyed the peaceful and restful location. Not sure I would say there was a lake view though. Thankfully there was central air that worked as it was triple digit HOT weekend!! Would have been nice if air had been turned on prior to arrival at 9:30 pm as it was like walking into a furnace that took several hours to cool down so we could sleep. The accommodations were nice and we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay including my sister and her friend who slept on sofa bed. We did run out of propane while barbecuing so had to finish on stove as all extra tanks were empty. We still had a great time. For R&R, this is a nice place.

Wonderful Lakehouse Retreat!

My family and I enjoyed our stay at Lynn and Paul's lake house so much! There is a lovely, very large, yard area for playing and they have paints out for all the guests to paint a rock for the garden. My almost three year old was thrilled with that activity! It is a very quiet place, and a really short walk down to Hernandez Hideaway! Lynn and Paul were very responsive- only had to reach out a couple of times with questions, but they were quick to reply and very helpful both times. Highly recommend if you're looking for a quiet retreat! Feels so much further away from "town" than it really is!

About the host

Hosted by Lynn & Paul

Our Lake Hodges home was the first single family home my husband and I purchased in 1990. Raising two of our three boys in the home was the best upbringing I could have given them. The Del Dios area is truly a unique place that I could let my children explore nature, canoe, kayak and fish with their friends. In 2001 my third son was born and we had to make a decision to remodel or add onto our cute and quaint lake home. We decided to move about a mile away to the other side of the lake because taking away the integrity of the home was not an option. Our plans are to move back to the lake home once our youngest son moves off to college. Both my husband and myself grew up in San Diego area and attended college here as well. We are excited for this opportunity to open our house up for guests to experience what we have been able to have in this home.

Why they chose this property

Before we had children we purchased a condo in Solana Beach. When our first son was born we decided that it was time to buy a home. My husband was driving his motorcycle and stumbled upon the community of Del Dios aka "Valley of the Gods". Because of the excellent weather and of course the lake, it felt right. The small town, it's vicinity and a country feeling was so appealing, it wasn't long before we found our home in the community. At first, we were torn about leaving the beach area but soon became impressed with the total culture. We lived there for 16 years before making the decision to move where we now, still in Del Dios still close to the lake.

What makes this property unique

Seasonal rates
From Beaches to Del Mar race track to the San Diego Safari Park, Disneyland to Mexico, the Lake House is the most centralized location available in San Diego Co.
Our home is half way up a gentle sloping road. It is one of three homes on the street. The living room has 4 giant picture windows that look out to the lake with mountains as the backdrop. It's about 100 yards to the lakes shore with trails that I have walked my dogs, biked, and jogged more times than I can count over the years. Although it is not a large home, it has an open feeling with the kitchen flowing into the living room and decks. There are three decks that surround the house. One of which is off the kitchen which makes a great place to have your morning cup of coffee or watch the moon rise reflect off the lake. Over the years the other two decks have provided us excellent places to have family barbecues and such. In the yard, we have done lots of gardening and landscaping throughout the years. It's a nice area for children to play in. Many different plants and trees add to the old growth that make for a lovely scape and walk through. We have also built a large kennel for pets which will suit visitors with pets needs when out on adventures, shopping at the mall or local stores. There are great views surrounding the property and many trails to enjoy running, hiking and biking. Once you wake up to the sun cresting though the distant mountains you'll know you're in the "Valley of the Gods" .We hope you'll enjoy our lake house just as hundreds our guests have.
