Best place ever!
This house came exactly as advertised. It was the perfect place to come back to after a day of exploring the San Diego area, whether just to lay around and relax or enjoy the limitless activities in the yard. The hosts were quick with responses to any questions we had and seemed willing to do whatever else it took to keep us happy with the booking. If I’m ever back here I wouldn’t hesitate booking this house again!

Great House, neighborhood and location!!!
The house was great and super well stocked with everything we needed! The only thing I would have changed would have been the gym equipment, it was extremely old and outdated. The outdoor space was incredible! The pool was huge and the house had tons of outdoor activities for adults and kids. Beds were comfortable as well which was a bonus!

Resort-Like Property
We had a lovely stay. The home was large with resort-like grounds that easily accommodated 11 of us. Everyone loved the heated pool and hot tub, and we all had plenty to do since the house was stocked with games and activities. We also found the location convenient for groceries and other conveniences (shopping, restaurants, nail salon, etc.) and loved that it was so close to the SD Wildlife Park.

Family Getaway
Property was as described on Vrbo. There was 16 of us… 8 adults and 8 grandchildren ranging from ages 8 to 21 years of age. Plenty of room to spread out and each family was able to have their own space. The pool and backyard space was beautiful. We really enjoyed our time out there. Plenty of games and activities to keep the kids occupied. Never heard anyone say they were bored. The kitchen was spacious and easily accommodated everyone that was preparing meals. Loved the walk-in pantry! All in all we were very happy with our visit at this property.

Unqualified perfection!
Excellent communication with the host before and during stay was prompt and complete. We were a family party of 11 with 5 children ranging from 8 - 16 and 6 adults. The house was beautiful. The pool and covered hot-tub area allowed everyone to get as much sun and water as they could possibly want. The kitchen was well-stocked with all possibly desired tools and basics so many adults could be cooking simultaneously. The game room was enjoyed by everyone and the high end beauty of the property was the perfect backdrop for the photographer (recommended also by the host at our request) was able to capture the joy of us all. And, the firepit for nighty smores had wood stocked for us. Nothing was wanting -- it was THE BEST!

Very Accurate Listing
Extended family enjoyed the pool, hot tub, and indoor and outdoor games. Lots of choices for all age groups. Had a few issues with the hot tub jets and one of the televisions; however, the host was extremely responsive. Beautiful property. The only negative was the 9pm quiet time, as even the senior adults were still a bit noisy past that hour.

Great place
Overall it was great. We were there in March so it was too cold to use the pool and we didn’t get in the hot tub, for some reason it wasn’t getting very hot, so we didn’t use it. The only other issue was the game room… online it seems great but the shuffle board and pool table were mini sized. We were on a golf trip so we were more worried about having enough bedrooms and bathrooms so it worked out great for us. During the summer time when you can use the pool I bet it would be sweet.

We loved the property, upon check in my window in my bathroom was open and it was freezing, we choose the time of the year when its the coldest here and the water from the shower does not get very hot but overall it was a great experience, we loved the property. If I ever come back to San Diego I will certainly try hard to book this house again.

Amazing property for a group of friends
We were 5 couples from Minnesota who stayed 4 nights at this beautiful property. The pool and yard were absolutely outstanding! I think we used each and every outdoor amenity. The home itself is also lovely and spacious. Plenty of room for us to be together when we wanted, but also room to spread out when alone-time was desired. There are a lot of "rules", which brings down the enjoyment a notch - but we understand the rules are likely necessary due to prior guests behaviors. Some of the kitchen items were organized strangely, but nothing we couldn't get used to. (Note - there is a regular drip coffee maker in addition to the Keurig listed, which was wonderful for a big group). The kitchen and pantry were stocked with so much - pretty much anything you could need was there! Really the only minor complaint was that most of the games in the game room were in less than great condition. Pool table was not even, shuffleboard table was sticky, fooseball table had a ping pong ball. The video games got a lot of use, though! Also, some of the written instructions were outdated or contradictory (i.e. Should the air conditioning be set to no lower than 70 or 73? Both temps were listed in various places) but nothing a quick text couldn't answer. We would highly recommend this property for any group of friends or family looking for an amazing place to stay - you really don't need to leave the property to have a fabulous vacation!

Family getaway at Lundy Lake
This home was as gorgeous in person as it was online. We had nine adults and seven children and there was more than ample space for everyone to retreat for some privacy or downtime when needed. The driveway was big enough to accommodate our family’s four vehicles and still had space for the kids to play basketball. The kitchen was fully stocked with any appliance or gadget you’d need for preparing meals for a large family. Plenty of dishes and silverware. The bedrooms are large and beds comfortable. The security gate worked the first day or so, but after that it kept getting stuck, opened only partially, or just stayed open. The owner responded to this immediately by contacting someone to fix it. We felt very safe in the neighborhood despite the gate not working all the time. Our children (ages 5-13) enjoyed the game room, tv’s, and the giant connect four game. Plenty of outdoor space and furniture in the pool area. We spent a lot of time in the backyard enjoying the pool, hot tub and other amenities. The pool house shower/bathroom was very convenient, although quite slick when wet feet are coming and going. I contacted the owner about this and they were very responsive about ordering anti-slip mats for that space, which was very much appreciated. Overall I would recommend this beautiful vacation home and wouldn’t hesitate to go back!
