Ryan was great! His bird was cute too! We loved the house. It was perfect for my family of four, my in-laws and our nephew. The little pool was perfect for an after beach game of Marco Polo for the three boys. The rooftop spa was great for relaxing at sunset and seeing fireworks!

Fun stay, close to the beach but far enough away from the noise. Good place for families with children. The small pool was a big hit with our 4 and 7 year old grandchildren.

Ryan Michaels is a great host and very responsive to any questions. The amazing house is well suited to a large family group…we had 12 in our family, including 2 small children.The beds are comfortable, and the house is well maintained.The kitchen is well stocked for our large group’s cooking and enjoyment.There is plenty of indoor and outdoor dining for large groups.Everyone enjoyed the pool and outdoor patio relaxation…some enjoyed the hot tub with beautiful view of ocean.It’s a 10 minute easy walk to either the ocean or Mission Bay with so many amenities available…shopping and restaurants.Also, close drive to Seaworld and zoo.I would highly recommend The Story Book house for any large family group gathering!
