The location was quiet and private while being located right in between San Diego to the south and wineries to the north. It was a bit too chilly in April for the pool, but we braved a dip anyway and then warmed up in the bathtub inside. The bed is particularly comfy and the full kitchenette and available grill made it easy to cook. Would definitely come back!

About the host

Hosted by Julia

Host profile image

Robert and I both grew up back East but have been in S. California since the early 1970's. I retired after 30 years of teaching and have a love of languages, reading, yoga and hiking. We both enjoy travel, meeting people, wine, cooking, entertaining, and riding bikes.



Why they chose this property

We fell in love with the beauty of this unique property the moment we set eyes on it. When you drive up the extensive driveway you are greeted by a majestically massive 150 year old Australian Morton "s Bay Fig Tree. The original portion of this property was built in the 1930's as a typical S. California working ranch. We both love history and historical sites and are very proud of the fact that the grandson of President Ulysses S. Grant, Chapman Grant, lived at and owned this site in the 1960's! We are thrilled to be able to share with our guests this piece of American history while enjoying the architectural beauty of a Mediterranean Villa.
