We were in San Diego to celebrate a 13th birthday with sun, baseball, and adult decompression time. Casa De Norte accomplished all of that. Everyone slept well in comfy beds. Meals were easy to prepare in the well equipped kitchen. We made family memories in the pool and at the pool table. Morning sunrise and evening sunset views from the living room and outdoor space were medicine for the soul! Jess and Justin, thank you for your perfect balance of availability and privacy. ##### Barbara W.

The layout of the home was really great for my family, and the safety alarms on the doors were super helpful for my young child. The rooms were comfortable and clean, overall a success. The pool was expensive to heat (we stayed in October) but it was really lovely. Views from the deck were great, an awesome outside hangout. We stocked up on bottled water and foods. There are some random leftovers from prior guests. It was convenient to where we were visiting family members, but was an expensive stay. ##### Elizabeth H.

Our grandkids loved the pool. The house is located close to Walmart, Target and Stater Bros making groceries easy to pick up. Jessica and Justin were quick to help with a couple of questions. Loved that everything labeled and notes around the house to explain how to use things. It took the guess work finding the way things worked. Thanks for a great Holiday Home ##### Elaine V.

It was like a small little compound which was perfect to escape home for a few days while still abiding by the quarantine rules. The hosts were terrific and super responsive when we had a question about the hot tub. I highly recommend this place. ##### Kirsten K.

Stayed at the property while our daughter recovered from surgery. The pool area and sunroom are great places to relax as a family and we felt very at home during the stay. The owners were very easy to communicate with and even dropped by to give us the lighter for the fire pit after we could not locate one in the house. ##### Kate S.

Just me and my husband so we enjoyed the quiet and peace. Jessica and Justin were very accommodating. Just like a big lake house. Very comfortable. The roads to get here are a little tight and uphill but the place feels like an oasis when we got there. ##### Patti B.

What are incredible property!!!! Great for relaxing AND entertaining!!! Very cozy, very very well done shabby chic. Definitely will reserve again when we come to California. Owners very very cooperative in fulfilling any requests. The standard size pool table saw quite a lot of play time (what a marvelous entertainment feature!!!). ##### Marie S.

The home and decorations are spectacular. You feel at home immediately!! All the outdoor patios are lovely and access to all outdoor areas are convenient with private areas as well. the hot tub and pool are amazing. The sun in the afternoon with cool breezes was very refreshing. We loved playing pool and gathering in the family room. The outdoor speakers are a great touch. The fire pit at night is warm and convenient to use. We couldn't have asked for abetter place to stay!!! Loved the streaming for TV use. ##### Freida H.

Very clean. Had everything we needed. Pool was great. Our only complaint was the nest thermostat. We like it cool and it kept resetting to a temp that was too hot us. Overall excellent place. We would definitely book again. ##### Susan V.

Had such a great stay at this beautiful property. The pool and hot tub are almost too good to be true, well at least for a Midwesterner (great temperature!) Hosts were kind and communicative. Easy to travel to neighboring beaches, SD, etc. ##### Hilary J. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### James T. 3 May 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### The perfect place for us to relax and explore We stayed here for 4 nights. It was really clean and in wonderful shape. You can tell that our hosts thought of everything they could to make our stay enjoyable, from an easy check-in process, to a video on how to use the spa, to a roku for streaming movies on the tv. We had 4 adults, 2 of which were over 70\. We had 3 kids that were 3, 5, and 7\. Our stay wasn't during the warmest week, so we did pay to add-on the heated pool which worked great. The pool was a little deeper than I expected, but our kids can swim pretty well so it wasn't a problem. We ended up spending a couple days in the pool and venturing out to San Diego on one of the days—which was just a short drive away. I'd definitely recommend this home to anyone looking to relax outside and visit surrounding venues. ##### James T.

The owners of the home were very attentive and accommodating and allowed for early check in, due to one child having gotten sick on the plane ride. The owners live next door so they also dropped off supplies such as soup, pedialyte, etc. to help! The owners were also VERY helpful and went over the top again when my husband forgot an important backpack on the property and the owner personally helped ensure the backpack was picked up by an Uber on our last day to be delivered at the airport with us. On to the house. We vacationed with my family of 5, my parents, and my brother and we felt the layout worked perfectly for our group. We very much enjoyed the pool and the hot tub! We were worried that the deep pool would be too cold in March to swim but it was quite nice and the kids spent every day in it! We would definitely rent this home again if we find ourselves in the area! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### PAT M., valley springs, ca 14 Apr 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Hidden Gem We stayed for five days to take our grands to SD for spring break. Check in was so easy and Justin, owner, was readily available when needed. Although he lives next door we never felt ‘spied’ on and were very comfortable in the house. The pool and spa were wonderful, the view at any time of the day/night was fantastic. There are so many outside areas to enjoy with patio doors all around the house! Beds are comfortable, pool table was great and we played almost every evening with the grands. I can’t say enough about how wonderful this home was for us. The location is about 30-40 minutes from SD entertainment which was fine for us especially being able to return to the spa, pool, etc. We hope to stay again on our next trip! Thank you Justin for your hospitality and providing this great home to stay in. ##### PAT M.
