We loved our stay! Came to celebrate our son’s graduation from SDSU. Convenient location, comfortable beds, feels newly renovated. Great selection of games - lots of laughs with Mega Mouth. We’d love to come back next time we visit.
The house was perfect for our girls get away, centrally located to many restaurants and the event we attended on Sunday. I would definitely book again.

Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed the home and that everything met your expectations. It was a pleasure hosting you, and you’re always welcome back anytime you’re in San Diego!
We rented out this property for its proximity to the san diego zoo. It was very clean and had extra amenities like a high chair, bouncer, and pack and play that I haven’t seen at other properties i’ve stayed at. It was very clean as well! The host had great communication. Overall great stay! The living space with the kitchen and living room is a bit tighter than expected but the outdoor living space really made up for it. All in all I would 100% recommend this home to stay and would rent it again in the future.
We had an amazing time at North Park Gem! The home was immaculate and so well-appointed. Everything was splendid and would definitely stay here again, if have the chance.

Thank you, Marianne! I’m so glad you enjoyed your stay at the North Park Gem. It was a pleasure hosting you, and you’re welcome back anytime!
We stayed for two nights while visiting our daughter and had such a great experience. Communication with Alexander was excellent from start to finish—he even checked in during our stay to make sure everything was going well.The house was spotless when we arrived, with thoughtful touches everywhere, from the Brita in the fridge to two different kinds of ice (a small luxury that honestly made our mornings!). The bathrooms are beautifully updated, and the showers were so fun—multiple spray settings, handheld options, and those side body jets I can never remember the name of, but wow did they feel amazing.The queen and full-size beds were very comfortable, and the bunk bed setup is great for kids. (I’d say the top bunk’s not ideal for an adult—but perfect for the little ones.)One of the biggest highlights was how family-friendly the home is. There were tons of baby items available, which we’ll definitely take advantage of when we return with our granddaughter.The front yard is a gem—plenty of hangout areas, games, and a peaceful, safe-feeling neighborhood that was quiet at night.We would absolutely book again. Overall, a wonderful stay in a charming, well-kept home. Highly recommend!
