The house, pool, and property are beautiful! Hosts were very nice and communicative with our group. Note that the septic system is very sensitive, so you are unable to flush toilet paper, and there is no oven. The place was very clean and spacious and perfect for us. The balcony allows for stargazing and sunrise soaking. The pool was a little chilly, but they had just opened it the day before and the overall temperature was a little cold. I loved the location - about 40 minutes from downtown San Diego and up a mountain. I personally liked the mountain drive and security.
