About this property

Ranch Style, Private Home Near La Jolla Shores - Walk to dining, shops, beach

This single story home wraps around a large fenced in back yard encompassing 1/3 of an acre of lush, mature landscaping with big windows and high vaulted ceilings. Neighbors on only two sides of the property make it super private. We bought this house because we love the location. It's close enough to walk to the beach yet far enough away to avoid all the the beach traffic and noise. The location makes it easy to get in and out of La Jolla. There is a little bit of road noise from La Jolla parkway. The house is located on Ardath road, which is a dead end road, not a busy street. The home is set back far enough from the road to create a privacy barrier and block most of the sound.

Beautiful property and neighborhood

Susan’s house is lovely, and was more than enough space for our family (4 adults, two toddlers, and a dog!) she was on top of communication, and the property was well-stocked with anything you would need to cook with. We only stayed in for breakfast, and the breakfast nook was perfect for our two young kids. The backyard and doggie door was heaven for our dog, who quickly learned she could let herself in/out as needed throughout the day. The photos and description are accurate, the rooms are a good size, and both bathrooms have ample space. There are two pack n plays for little tots in one of the bedrooms, which was super useful for our family! The central heating thermostat take a little bit of patience, but we figured it out after a few minutes. There are a few stray cobwebs here and there, but nothing that a thorough cleaning wouldn’t catch. We came in winter so didn’t make too much use of the backyard or take advantage of the property’s proximity to the beach, would definitely come back in the summertime. Perfect layout if you have kids in bed, and you want to watch TV / play games on the other side of the house. Great house for a family or several families looking for to getaway for a week!

Great house for a group of 6-8!

There are 4 different large common areas in the house and yard for group interaction - the place is much bigger than it looks. Love the inside/outside vibe. Fenced backyard for dog/kids. Beds very comfy. Every bedroom has its own climate control and TV. And don’t get me started on the toilets … love them!

La Jolla Gem

This home with its back and front yards was a beautiful environment for my family to relax in. The weather caused some indoor time. The kitchen, furniture and beds provided a comfy feel so we could enjoy good food and conversation. Susan, our host was quickly responsive and helpful throughout our long weekend. The home is within walking distance to the beach and shopping. We had a great time and will return again.

About the host

Hosted by Susan McCasland

I'm a Cal Poly, SLO Graduate with a BS degree in Business Administration. I worked as a Wine Specialist for Gallo Wine Company and Young's Market Company before getting married and having two kids. I took some time off to raise my family, I work full time managing eight homes we own on Maui and one home inLa Jolla, CA.

My husband Troy and I started out with two vacation rentals in Mission Beach, San Diego, California in 1994. We have been in the Vacation Rental Industry for 27 years and understand what it takes to make guests happy and run a smooth operation.

My goal is to have you open the door, and go Wow, this place is amazing! I pay special attention to every detail: Interior design, furnishing, amenities, cleanliness, landscaping, kitchen supplies, and customer service.

I love staying in vacation rentals when we travel with the family on ski trips or abroad, but when I'm with my hubby on short business trips we stay at W Hotels. The W is my inspiration.
