Long Weekend In Center Valley
We were in town for my son's lacrosse tournament. The home provided amazing views and a comfortable place to relax during our downtime. We arrived in the dark and the looks on our faces when we saw the views from the house first thing in the morning were priceless!

Awesome Place to Stay, Highly Recommended!
One of the best VRBO's were we have stayed. Tina and Mel were very responsive to questions and request and made sure that we were able to have a fantastic Thanksgiving/Birthday for my son who's in the Marines. The views are fantastic and we especially loved the hot tub under the stars. The home is spacious the beds are very comfortable. Love the open design it was a great place to chill and reconnect with my adult children.

Incredible view!
This property was amazing and we enjoyed our stay to the very end! The listing was accurate and the amenities: hot tub, fire pit, grill and patio were excellent, but nothing beats the seclusion and sunsets and sunrises that only this property offers! Steep drive up a winding road which only adds to the experience, nothing dangerous or undoable. Hosts were extremely responsive and accommodating. Thanks for adding to our family memories

Nice stay
The house was beautiful. I found the amenities to be solid. The location is quiet and makes for a peaceful time. Do keep in mind that this location is 20-30 minutes from any other services and that at least during September you will have fog roll in that hangs around until about 10 a.m.

Hills, sunsets, avocados, and Roadrunners!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the hills! Once we managed the 2 mile winding road, we were more comfortable using it day or night. The Roadrunners peeking in the windows were a hoot! We would do this, again.

Valley Center View House
Amazing views from this house. Mel and Tina were very responsive and timely to questions. House was well equipped, including a gas grill, gas fire pit, hot tub, spacious rooms, kitchen with all the necessary kitchenware, washer and dryer, and dishwasher. Super chill atmosphere, and a great location.

Heaven in the Hills
This property was amazing and then some. Not many places can bring you instant relaxation and a sense of serenity, but this beautiful home could do just that. This will be our go to rental for every visit we make to San Diego, if its available. (On second thought, maybe i shouldnt leave this review). 😁

House on the clouds
The property and surroundings are beautiful. It's easy to enjoy just staying at the property alone and enjoy the view. We felt like we were on a cloud on some mornings, due to actual clouds being present. The patio is beautiful and it's amazing to sit out there. And it's great for a full sized family. The only drawback I'd say is the steep drive to the property, but that may be more of an issue if you're used to flat roads, such as in Texas =p. Overall, it was a great experience and I thank Mel and Tina for allowing us to stay!

Awesome Views. Watch the sunset!
The place is a little dated, but it doesn’t have to be brand spanking new! The views make up for it and the 15 is right there which connects you to any county in SoCal without too much commute. Jacuzzi was a plus! Would stay there again when we come to SD.

Relaxing, with great views
Great place to chill out, watch the sunrise and sunset, and soak in the hot tub. Plenty of space for families to spread out, and lots of indoor and outdoor spaces to hang out in. The drive itself was as advertised, but longer than expected; once you arrive, you have little incentive to leave, so it's nice that the place is so comfortable :)

Hilltop Beauty and helpful property owners
The property location is a treasure with views in all directions. We enjoyed great sunrises, sunsets and moonrises. Everything is as advertised and I'd say even better than advertised. Don't let the comments about the ride up to the location discourage. The roads are paved all the way up, with plenty of room for cars both ways. The ride up, itself, has great views and previews the good decision you made selecting this location. The owners are very responsive. We had a hiccup with the jacuzzi the first night and Mel came over and took care of it for us that evening. Location wise, you can head south to Oceanside, Carlsbad, San Diego or north to wineries in Fallbrook and Temecula.

Great house! Amazing view
This house is incredible!! It features all the luxuries of home and more. It was clean, great instructions so you knew how to work everything. We spent more of our time on the deck since the view is amazing with comfortable furniture and space. Very different from our forested home in Oregon. The road to the house is long, windy and not for the faint of heart. But, this isn't news to anyone who rents this house. Many reviews have mentioned this. We drove slow and prayed the locals would, too because some parts are so narrow (we were in a rented Ford Expedition) you're not sure if there will be room on the road for you and oncoming traffic. The drive is worth it if you can spend most of your time at the house instead of driving up and down to town. We had to drive up and down a lot, unfortunately because we were taking our son to college in Escondidio. Mel and Tina have created a home that makes you feel welcomed and comfortable.

Perfect space to relax
This property was perfect for us. It was a large home with plenty of room for us, our daughter and son-in-law and 2 elementary grandkids. We had a family reunion and family wedding in the area, and the home was a perfect place to come back and unwind, enjoy the view, relax in the hot tub, and enjoy the smaller family unit. It was very clean and I appreciate that it was set up specifically for short term rentals. Mel and Tina were very responsive and flexible. Thanks so much - we will be back for our annual family reunion!
