Our group was 5 adults and 2 children (4 and 6) and we loved the many living spaces, games, activities, and pool! The property was expansive and beautiful, with gorgeous views, tucked in a nice neighborhood. Close to plenty of restaurant options and a mall, and not too far from attractions in San Diego. It was perfect for our getaway!
This is a great place to stay! We loved the citrus grove on the property. The kids loved the play room. Safe quiet area close to freeway access. Mo the property management was amazing. Very responsive. If you get a chance definitely stay here!
The house was perfect for our family of 10 ages (4-80)…everyone loved the pool and outside area, the house was well stocked and everything was clean and comfortable. Mo was always very responsive to any messages. We would definitely recommend it to others and would love to come back.
The park model is in a quiet rural location and convenient to Mt Rainier. The space is a bit dated but adequate and clean. The bed is comfortable and the linens of good quality. The kitchen had some basics but could use a few more. It was unusually warm weather and the window AC couldn’t keep up, so a fan of some sort would be nice. All things considered, the stay was fine and would consider staying again.

Nice talking to you, you left the review on the wrong home. It happens. We are in San Diego county. No where near Mt Rainier. And we have hvac system. Just so future guest know this was just an accident. Thanks again. Look forward to hosting you again next year.
This house was great for our small family reunion. The pool and hot tub were clean and well maintained and were enjoyed by all. The house had everything it promised including comfortable bedrooms, a well equipped kitchen and game rooms for all ages. The location is convenient to The San Diego Safari Park and the drive to the coast was not bad. Several parks were nearby as well as hiking trails.
The only issue we had was the intermittent WiFi signal which cut in and out, especially on Friday. We enjoyed our stay and would book again.
What an incredible house for our three generations to interact. We were delighted by the spectacularly landscaped yard. The gardens with blooming flowers in trees and a rose garden, trimmed hedges, citrus grove and lovely lawn framed the house beautifully whether we were looking from inside or outside the home. The swimming pool and spa where we had daily swims with our granddaughter, was so much fun! The spacious house interior was spotless, and we enjoyed countless games, the pool table and the recreational activities in the garage. All was paradise for our granddaughter. The kitchen was well equipped for the meals we prepared. The bedrooms were comfortable with ample bathrooms. The master suite was amazing with a nice work desk in an adjoining room, large walk-in closets and a huge master bathroom. We felt pampered. With incredibly good accommodations in a beautiful neighborhood setting by hiking trails in open space, we give the retreat a well-deserved 5 star rating.
