I could spend months there. My dog had free run of a fully fenced acreage and friendly dogs to run with. The cottage had every high end appliance you might want, including a washer/dryer combo. I would have liked to stay longer, but was needed at home. The hosts are available for any questions. ##### Sally D. Stayed 11 nights in Oct 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### MARY 21 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The little guest house is spacious, with plenty of storage for clothing so you can unpack instead of living out of a suitcase. The kitchen has everything, including a Keurig. The bed and couch are very comfortable, and there is nearly instant hot water! Many windows give a lot of natural light, but foliage around the house provide privacy. There are horses, cats, dogs, a ram - very "country" - but 4 minutes down the road are Starbucks, a grocery store, etc. The hosts are wonderful - right there on site, and only a text away if you have any questions. It's a gem of a place. PS At night, you hear coyotes and owls - so special! ##### MARY Stayed 10 nights in Oct 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Will M. 10 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful property in country setting We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful Casita. Spent 5 days 4 nights and enjoyed every minute of our stay - Property is on a small ranch that houses a number of rescue animals (Dogs, Horses, Ram, Cats) - highly recommend reaching out the owners for a tour. Well worth the hour we spent - great way to meet the animals and see their dream coming to life. Beautiful unit - well decorated, full kitchen with sufficient supplies to eat in (we cooked most meals), comfy bed (Queen memory foam), great walk-in closet, window AC in living room for the summers (we had cold temps so we used the gas stove which worked very well). It get's very dark and quiet which made for some very comfortable evenings. Owners were there if we needed anything but otherwise left us alone. There may be some activity on the property as they are doing some remodeling but didn't impact us at all. Property is 10 minutes from San Elijo with restaurants and grocery stores. Elfen Park has some great hiking. Highly recommend this property and would definitely return ##### Will M.

Our living space was clean and nicely upgraded. The property is a mini-ranch that we were free to roam. The hosts were friendly and informative. Legoland and other places are not far.

I wished I could have stayed longer, but unfortunately, the place was already booked. I would definitely love to stay here again. ##### Noriko I. Stayed 8 nights in Jul 2024 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Nancy B. 14 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy The guest house is comfortable and nicely updated. It is a great location, about 20 minutes to Carlsbad beach and relatively close to all San Diego sights. We enjoyed lots of adventures, hiking, exploring, and beach days.Tip: this is a working ranch and very dog friendly. Please note that there are several dogs, and a cute little pig, that roam freely about the property. They are friendly, but be aware that your dog needs to be ok with that. It is a secluded location and when the dogs hear something, they may bark at night. ##### Nancy B.

It is a two acre gated estate that we were allowed to explore during our stay. It is very private and quiet. It is beautiful and comfortable. The owners are on site and very welcoming. We could not have asked for more in a short term rental property and will visit there again if we get the chance. ##### Dana H.

It's a but of a haul, but we wanted privacy, so that was expected. Owner's home is right next door, we had hoped there would be more distance as our dogs bark, and we did not want to disturb anyone.

Our cottage had everything you could possibly want, including one adorable beagle (snoop). It was exactly as pictured The place was very quiet and just across the street was a walking trail that ran for miles into the hills. Bill and Holly were perfect hosts. A pretty little town was just 2 miles away with everything you need. Carlsbad was a 20 min. drive where you can catch the train to San Diego. ##### Mariann G.

I read this to stay near San Diego for a funeral. this property really fit the bill ass. It allowed me some peace and quiet away from the bustle of the city. The guest house that you rent is very nicely furnished and has plenty of amenities. you can get some local food about 3 miles away. The owners respect my privacy, but were there if I needed them. ##### David B. Stayed 5 nights in May 2023 ---
