Wonderful little studio. Horse/walking trails everywhere. The host/hostess are lovely. I have my dogs and they have been especially accommodating, The only challenge has been no washer and dryer. But that said, the host washed all the towels and linens for me. Can’t say enough about my experience. Highly recommend!

Great communication, super quiet, a bit hard to find at night. Loved visiting the horses and also being away from the hubbub of greater San Diego. David was very responsive to anything we needed. Comfortable bed. Very private setting.

We totally enjoyed our stay here! The owners were so friendly and accommodating from the moment we arrived. Their two horses were a bonus - they were friendly and gentle and we loved seeing them every day! The location is peaceful and quiet and a very short drive to the village of Rancho Santa Fe. The casita was spotless and well stocked with amenities. It was definitely designed with comfort in mind.We couldn't have asked for a better experience and David is such a great host. We look forward to our return visit!

The Casita was perfect for a relaxing vacation and his two beautiful horses made the vacation very memorable and special. David was so kind and helpful. He provided us with carrots so we could feed his horses and allowed us to feed them watermelon which was a highlight for me and my daughter. He even brought gifts for my two pups. Being 10 minutes away from such beautiful beaches was so convenient for us, allowing us to go for walks on the beach. The casita was very clean and had all the necessary amenities available. The towels were of the highest quality and the bedding was cozy and comfortable. David also allowed me to charge electric vehicle. He was the perfect Host. Thank you so much David. We hope to be back again:)

To say that David, our host, is a premier host is an understatement. My wife and i have traveled extensively and stayed with VRBO properties. This is BY FAR the most enjoyable and beautiful place to stay when visting the north of San Diego. David is truly an amazing not just host but person. The Casita is a perfect get away for two people and their beloved doggie. We had Ollee our love Havanese. He enjoyed visiting with Jackson and Annie the two lovely horses on the property.
