This house was in great location. It was close to several great restaurants and shops and a quick trip to downtown and airport. It was very clean and we had plenty of room for 2 families. Loved the back yard! The pool table and dart board kept everyone entertained. The host Aubrey was communicative, readily available, and eager to help.

Great stay for my family reunion in San Diego. The 6 bedroom house was excellent for our group so we could all be together. There was so much space for us to gather and the kitchen was fully stocked for all of us to eat together. The outside garden area was perfect for our barbecue night and we used the pool table every day. Conveniently located between North park restaurants and South Park restaurants.I highly recommend this stay.

This is a great house with a California vibe and a unique architecture. One of my favorite VRBOs! Second year in a row I booked this place. Short 15 minutes from downtown but right near Balboa Park and green space.

Balboa historic treat!

While attending a business conference at the Convention Center, I rented this house for me and 4 coworkers. Easy, convenient location. And what a fantastic house! Best bedding of any property I have ever rented.

A perfect way to spend some time in San Diego

We have a wonderful stay in this amazing house - such a beautiful home with lovely decor and amenities that were top notch. Room to spread out but still felt “cozy” to all of us. Location is central to everything - zoo, navy pier, Little Italy, etc - and the town just down the street is so charming with all the shops and restaurants you need for a relaxing visit. We especially enjoyed all of the fruit trees in the yard and the frequent hummingbird visitors!.

Great quirky (in a good way) property and pet friendly

Not your cookie cutter place. Historical craftsman. Lots of nooks and crannies that once you figure out is pretty functional. Fully updated. Walkable to restaurants and shops. Highly recommend for a unique stay!

Great Location, Nice House, OUTSTANDING Communication!

Aubrey's communication was top notch. I've booked a lot of properties for our business associates, but this was the first time I had zero worries - I knew if anything wasn't right she'd be on top of it. The guests all said the house more than met their needs, and was in a great area for the expo they attended.

Incredible property in beautiful South Park

We truly loved our stay at Aubrey’s beautiful house. We had a large group of adults convening for a weekend of birthday celebration, and the house was immaculately clean, beautifully decorated, and felt like an incredible oasis. It had everything our large group needed, and guests were blown away by how stunning and peaceful the home is. Aubrey was incredibly responsive and helpful; would recommend this stay to anyone who wants to a piece of the stunning architecture San Diego has to offer in a stylish fashion. Close to the best restaurants and bars in the city.

Such a Special Home!

This beautiful property had plenty of room for us to have our own space, yet also gather together. The outdoor spaces were fun for all ages and we really enjoyed the game garage and the firepit. Everyone commented about how comfortable the beds were. The communication with the host was outstanding and very appreciated. This was a really special, historic home that provided a great gathering place for extended family. There is a lot of traffic noise from 30th Street, but only family members who are sensitive to road noise noticed.

Great heritage home with local activities

Gathered the boys for a relaxing trip away from daily life and this home away from home was the perfect fit for our needs.Backyard space is great for entertainment, formal living room and dining room allowed us to watch the game and play a little poker house game.Rooms are definitely under sold with the photos, especially the master bedroom upstairs which had its own kitchenette.You can tell at one point this was a multi family dwelling but being able to explore the house was like being a kid in a maze and brought a lot of excitement to the group.Kitchen had so many spices and dinnerware we didn't need to bring half the stuff we did for our night in.Thank you Aubrey for hosting us and we'll hopefully be back soon.

My husband and I, our two grown children and their spouses, and our four grandchildren stayed at this lovely home last week for five days. Aubrey was excellent at getting back to me with all of my questions and had the rental wagon we needed in the garage when we arrived! Everything about the home exceeded our expectations! The layout of the bedrooms allowed for privacy especially for our one year old granddaughter who needed to nap. All of the furniture is comfortable, kitchen is well equipped and the outside space was wonderful!The location of the house is amazing. For sightseeing it was less than a ten minute drive to the Zoo and Balboa Park, and less than twenty minutes to the Mission Bay Area, (great playgrounds and amusement park) downtown San Diego, the Airport and Liberty Public Market. We were a ten minute walk to either North Park or South Park. It was great to be able to walk to coffee shops in the morning and two nights after sightseeing all day it was wonderful to pick up take out nearby! We loved the food at Taco Time! Honestly I really can not say enough great things about this place! If you are headed to San Diego look no further than Palm Parkside for a place to stay!

Charming and great for a family gathering!

We recently hosted a family gathering of 10, and this house exceeded our expectations. It is a unique, beautiful, and historic Craftsman home that truly stands out. Once you become familiar with its charming layout and distinctive features, you appreciate how well it accommodates a large group. Despite its spaciousness, the house also offers plenty of quiet corners for those seeking some alone time. The backyard provided a perfect setting to relax, converse, and enjoy each other’s company. The location is excellent—conveniently close to stores, restaurants, and bars. Although I had initially been concerned about potential street noise, we found the house to be remarkably quiet inside. Aubrey, the host, was fantastic—highly responsive and attentive to our needs. I highly recommend this house for a family gathering.

Aubrey was an amazing host and the property was gorgeous. Sometimes with rentals the pictures look better than the property but in this case the pictures didn’t lie. 100% recommended.
