North Park Retreat! Trendy & Tranquil 2br/2ba!

Summary:
This is a fully loaded 2br/2ba home that sleeps 5. You'll find a full kitchen, plush bedding with gel memory foam mattresses in each bed, an HDTV with free Netflix account for a relaxing night in, and an outdoor patio with sectional sofa and large grill. But the best feature of this home is it's location. A .5 mile walking away is North Park, with all its famous breweries, restaurants and nightlife. Pets are welcome with prior approval and additional $125 pet fee.

The Space:
You can't help but notice the professionally decor that makes the space feel vibrant yet cozy at the same time. This space uses warm but bright dimmable lighting which is perfect for either work or play. Even though there are only two bedrooms, we have made it possible to sleep an extra person on the couch. The unit comes with extra sheets, blankets, and pillows for all. All white linens are provided by a linen company so you know everything will be perfectly clean every time.

Guest Access:
You can access the whole home, plus the side patio which includes a large outdoor sectional plus grilling area and an overhead sun umbrella to stay in the shade!

The Neighborhood:
The home is set back a bit from the street so you won't hear ANY road noise. You are very close to Balboa Park. In fact you can go for a jog to get there!
Hipsters, young professionals and students hang out in trendy North Park, where coffee shops, craft-beer bars and indie boutiques line University Avenue. The restaurant scene is heavy on brunch spots, upscale pubs, taquerias and sushi lounges, and nightlife often revolves around the Observatory North Park, a 1929 theater that hosts rap, rock and electronica. The North Park Thursday Market also features live music.

Getting Around:
The best way to get around is by Uber or Lyft ride share services. There is no assigned parking so once you park your car you may find it easier to taxi. If you're feeling adventurous, you can also use one of the many rideshare scooters found throughout the neighborhood such as Bird, Jump or Lime.

Other Things to Note:
Pets are welcome with prior approval and additional $125 pet fee.
**No pets without prior written approval. If you're bringing a pet, you must follow airbnb's pet rules: dispose of all pet waste properly, never leave pet unattended in the home or backyard, and keep dogs leashed when walking them outside of the home.

San Diego now requires all guests to sign a Good Neighbor Policy document prior to staying. We do enforce their policy so it must be signed in order to receive checkin info, but we will make it super easy for you to initial and sign :) It can all be done online.

Clean. Quiet. Close to Balboa Park
A lovely spot! Owners are friendly and communicative. The property is tucked back from the street so it offers privacy, which is especially nice on the patio. We will stay again!

Nice quiet location
Nice 2 bedroom/2 bath location that worked perfectly for my grown son and me. The location was perfect for us as we could walk to who we were visiting in Northpark. Very cute and comfortable, much better than staying in a hotel.

Visiting our son in San Diego
This little house is great It's a 1 mile walk into North Park business district and there are a few restaurants that are even closer. The neighborhood is very hilly though, so walking is a little more strenuous than I hoped it would be. Uber pick ups were always very quick. My husband and I loved having 2 bathrooms and the AC worked great!

Perfect spot in great location!
Loved our stay in north park! Plenty of space for our family - two beds and two baths!! Plenty of bedding and towels, full set of wine glasses and much more! Enjoyed using the side patio. Had a car and street parking was never a problem. Would definitely stay again.

Great location, very nice house
Great location within walking distance to Balboa Park, and many restaurants and stores. Parking was not an issue at all. House could have been a little cleaner when we arrived and there were a few minor maintenance issues. Communication was great.

Cute, clean, and comfortable in North Park
We loved our stay here, it was exactly like the pictures, very comfortable beds, clean bathrooms and kitchen, stocked with coffee and tea:) The whole place was updated nicely. Great location, we walked to the zoo and Balboa park. Easy entry with code through keypad. Street parking was a little hard to find a few nights, but it was worth it because the location was so great. 10 minutes to downtown, the airport, even Coronado was a quick drive. Will definitely stay here again!!!

Modern house in a great location
A wonderful property with modern furnishings and nice appointments. The best location to walk to so many things. We loved the amount of space inside, and enjoyed the patio. It’s not perfect. Parking is a little difficult but we never searched for more than a minute and always found a spot within a block. The place needed to be cleaned a little better but most things were cleaned well. Overall, a very good choice and we have booked it again.

Close to Balboa Park
Overall we enjoyed our stay. The location is close to Balboa park which has many museums and sites to see. The beds in the house were comfortable. We didn’t cook but the kitchen seemed well stocked. The only downside was parking. Perhaps if you live in CA or the big city, the parking is a normal situation. But there is no designated spot. We were able to find a spot each time, but it did require us to drive around for a few minutes before we found one.

Cozy, quiet cottage
This North Park cottage is in a fantastic location. We had a rental car but only used it once as there are many bars and restaurants within walking distance, very close to the airport and Balboa Park. Very quiet neighborhood. Beds were very comfortable and enjoyed the little patio area. The only draw back is the lack of parking. There is not a designated parking place and it is difficult to find parking nearby even in the day but particularly at night. I would still highly recommend this house!

Sweet Spot, Great Location, No Parking
Very sweet property, only a couple of blocks to Balboa Park which made for very nice walking every day. Property has zero off street parking, so plan on parking at least two blocks away when coming home from the days activities. We considered this a major drawback. There were issues with cleanliness, but the property manager was immediately responsive, which we appreciated.

Great Homebase for a Week in San Diego
The property was perfect for my wife and me, plus our son. The house was very clean and ready for immediate use when we arrived. The location was centrally located so that we could access the Zoo and Balboa Park in just minutes and other things we usually wanted to do in under 15 minutes. One afternoon when we returned to the house, the electronic lock had died, but the management team was on the spot, and we were back in the house in less than 10 minutes. We could not have had a better experience. Highly recommend this property if you plan on being in San Diego. You will need to be able to parallel park if you want to park near the house, so just be prepared.
