My teenage son and I loved Barb’s place. It was perfect! The amount of space was just right. The location was fantastic! Easy access to the freeway and we seemed to be 20-25 minutes, at most, from most major SD attractions. Barb supplied body wash, shampoo/conditioner, hair dryer, bath towels, laundry detergent, dishwasher detergent, toilet paper, trash bags, and even had water and snacks. This was so thoughtful and convenient since most guests are flying in and not able to bring all of those items. The bedding was clean and comfortable. We had plenty of quiet and privacy. I sleep with a white noise machine and highway noise wasn’t an issue at all. As others have mentioned, the street is somewhat busy but we didn’t have any problems backing out. Just be careful. There is a bathtub but the stopper wasn’t holding the water. It wasn’t a big deal to me but it might be if you have small children. Also, there ARE curtains on the door and back door. This place was great and Barb was fast to reply to texts. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it for couples or small families.

The Cottage in the Garden was a great choice for our vacation in San Diego. It is a unique, modern, cool, and homey place that we called home. It has everything that one could ask for. The hosts have considered every detail...right down to warm chocolate chip cookies and a bottle of wine to greet you upon arrival. I am VERY picky in selecting where my family stays. This is a FANTASTIC place to stay. Consider this place for your next stay!

Comfortable property! Great location! Has all of the amenities! Wonderful hosts! Enjoyed are stay!

Pleasant two week stay at the Cottage. Host was very attentive to any of of needs/questions. We would not hesitant to stay again on our next visit to San Diego.

This little cottage overlooking a beautiful little garden was perfect for our visit to the San Diego area. The hosts were attentive and answered all of our questions via emails/text. The cottage was clean and roomy enough for our family of three.

This is a sweet property for one or two people. It's very well laid out, very well thought out. The hosts were very helpful, but not not in anyway intrusive. We arrived very late and our hosts had a bottle of wine chilling. There was some wonderful coffee beans provided for our first morning joe. The entrance way to our private guest house was well lit, so coming and going after dark was easy. A very enjoyable, comfortable stay. Thank you! – Anne

Barb and Gary have done a wonderful job at their rental. Clean, quiet, great location, and very close to some of San Diego’s finest destinations. Snacks are left for the guests and their backyard is a peaceful retreat.
