This farmhouse was perfect for our stay in San Diego for a wedding! Easy to drive in and out of the city. James and Zdenka were so welcoming with a goody basket. The place was clean, very comfortable, and stocked with anything we would need.

Farmhouse Heaven

Beautiful, clean, elegant and at the same time so cozy and quiet. The owners respected our privacy but were available every step of the way if we needed anything. We loved our 4 day stay!

The farmhouse was cozy, clean, and felt like a home away from home. The owners were super nice giving us a box of chocolates, other snacks, and wine. The house came with full kitchen amenities and overall the area surrounding the farmhouse was beautiful and quiet.

Great visit

It was an amazing little cabin. The house are great as well. No issues no concerns. If I come back to San Diego, I will check here to see if this is available every time. Way better than any hotel and any other Verbo I’ve been at.

The little extras make this a jewel

We have stayed at lots of spots, it was the extras that put this place in our top 10%. Things like a beautiful welcome package, a real corkscrew, welcoming messages, some essentials in the cupboard, and lots of pillows! We loved the view from the upstairs terrace, and the quiet of this place. It had everything we needed to cook and was spotless. A special place

Beautiful Escape from the City

The pictures of the view from this property do not do it justice. We appreciated the distance from the city without being too far away. It gave us an escape to retreat to. Perfect amount of space for two adults and a 1yr old. Hosts were communicative if needed and everything was clean and well taken care of. They very much take pride in their farmhouse. Will definitely be back next time we're visiting!

We absolutely loved this farmhouse! It was easy communicating with the host. The home was spotless, and had every single amenity possible. From the welcoming sign and birthday cupcakes to the goodie basket, wine, and chocolate, everything was perfect. The kitchen was fully loaded with every utensil, pot, pan, and plate imaginable. We were looking for a quiet and peaceful vacation, and we certainly got it here. This was the best Vrbo we've stayed in. The views were gorgeous from the patio. Not one complaint about this home. Thank you so much to the hosts James and Zdenka. We will be back!

Peaceful Retreat

The pictures don't do this listing justice. Everything was perfect and all details were thought of. We enjoyed keeping the A/C off and the windows open day and night - there is no noise pollution. We saw lots of little bunnies on our daily drive up to the house. Our kids enjoyed the cornhole game out back! Highly recommend.
