Canyon Castle View House

Summary:
Booking Now! This is a modern classic getaway in the very heart of San Diego. Just 10 minutes to Del Mar, La Jolla, Sea World, Zoo, and Pacific Beach. This 7/4 canyon home has an open floor plan with double French doors to the private backyard and hot tub where sunset views of La Jolla’s Mt. Soledad are spectacular! There's room here to spread out and really relax with a larger group, especially with the game room pool table on the 2nd floor where those French doors open to direct ocean breeze!

The Space:
This house was custom designed for openness, flow, and the fantastic fresh air that blows in from the ocean. It has a beautiful back yard with a hot tub, two patios, enough yard for scrimmage football, catch or frisbee, and side yards to hide at. The bedrooms are all wonderfully arranged and decorated to feel completely at home with wifi tv's in each. The staircase comes into the kitchen and living area so morning coffee aroma drifts upstairs. The game room is just fantastic with three French doors and two French windows you will feel outside with fresh breezes blowing through.

Guest Access:
Guests have the entire property: yard and house front and back inside and out.
We want all of our guests to enjoy the house and respect the rules for no events unless we provide written permission for more than the number booked.

The Neighborhood:
This is such a fantastic neighborhood. The house is on a 'no exit' road: this makes it quiet and even more safe. The house is on a canyon providing quiet and privacy. The backyard faces northwest so you always have beautiful views to La Jolla, 2 miles away, and gorgeous sunsets. Finally, the neighbors love having this beautiful house in their neighborhood so everyone is very friendly.

Getting Around:
Ubers and Lyfts hang around this area, Clairemont, because it is central to all of San Diego. They are ALWAYS at your door within 3 minutes of your request.
The driveway provides for 2 cars and 1 car in front of the house. There is ample additional parking across the street under the large tree and on into the open space which you drive past just 2 houses before arriving at the house.

Other Things to Note:
Nothing should impact your stay. If anything does, please let me know as soon as possible. My husband can also be reached at 858-583-8537.

Interaction with Guests:
I live in the neighborhood and am available by phone anytime and in person on request. My husband and I are here to ensure you have a perfectly smooth and totally enjoyable stay at our vacation house.

Comfortable family house
We stayed at the house as an extended family vacation - two families with kids and an additional four adults without kids and it fit us all fairly comfortably. The mattresses leave a little to be desired, but overall the space was comfortable and close to everything we planned to see in San Diego. The backyard has been setup very nicely to enjoy the wonderful weather and we had more than enough room for our entire group to watch the Super Bowl In the living room. We had a couple snags at checkin regarding arrival date and the host was quick to reply and rectify the situation - going above and beyond. I would highly recommend this home and would stay with this host again.

Comfortable time with excellent hosts
We were coordinating a family trip to celebrate my dad's 70th birthday and were looking for a place that would serve as a recurring retreat after sightseeing and a surprise party we'd coordinated for him. Canyon Castle was exactly that. Lots of space for us to spread out into our own rooms, beautiful open living room/kitchen for hanging out together, a beautifully naturally lit upstairs area. Our GEM though was the backyard. It was super peaceful and scenic and each evening we got to enjoy the sunset over the canyon. Our host Anita was by far the most warm/responsive host I'd ever interacted with. She messaged from before our arrival, checked in, and when we had an issue with the iron they had one sent to us in just a few hours. We're grateful for the experience.

Special Occassion
My husband & I decided to have a small wedding with just immediate family & friends. Anita allowed us to have our special day in her rental. From the day we booked to the whole rest of our stay, Anita was super supportive & welcoming. Our families had traveled from India & CA. They all absolutely loved the rental. There are some minor wears that need fixing, but nothing that prevented us from having a great stay. The house was beautiful & accessible for all. We booked the space to host our two ceremonies (Hindu & Western) & the Hindu rituals leading to the wedding. All went well, the only issue we had were the neighbors on both sides made it clear they do not appreciate the host renting the property. I am not sure what has happened in the past, but it became aware there has been tensions between them. Unfortunately, we were just the group one of them decided to blow steam on for no reason. The neighbor on the right side, decided to act out when we were finishing our first ceremony on Friday afternoon. We think he was under the influence of something. He just started yelling things about this neighborhood not being a church and then accusing us of having car races at night. Nothing he said made sense & to add injury he decided to say racists things to our guests. Then he tried charging towards a guest in attempt to hit her. My friend's fiancé blocked him. We were all shocked. Our friends & family watching virtually saw the whole confrontation. We were all ready to call the police on him. We have it recorded in case we decide to file a suit, but for the most part we decided to leave it at that for we did not want to ruin our day. Anita was there to help during this ordeal & made sure to check-in throughout the day. It all happened so fast & our guests were trying to keep calm. We were all able to continue the rest of our day, but made sure to keep an eye on the neighbor & walked our guests to their cars for safety. We ended all our festivities by 9:00pm just in accordance to Anita's rule. The neighborhood is a quiet one with lots of parking nearby as long as guest do not park near the neighbors parking areas. The neighborhood is 15 minutes from Downtown and the airport. Clairemont Mesa Blvd is close by with multiple shops, restaurants, & freeway entrances. It was super convenient. Our experience was great- despite the neighbor. We're truly thankful for Anita for all of her help and allowing us to have our wedding! She's a great host!

Great Place for our Family Vacation
The location of this property was great! It was a10-20 minute drive from everywhere we wanted to go--the Zoo, La Jolla Shores Beach, the sea lions, Old Town and the Mormon Battalion Visitor's Center, Sunset Cliffs and Balboa park. We had parents, children and spouses and grandchildren. It was great to have two master bedrooms and a real crib as well as a nice high chair. Anita went out of her way to make our stay comfortable!

Huge disappointment
The property owner Anita was extremely disrespectful by entering the property through the backyard yelling and being disrespectful to me and others in our party. She threatened to make us all Leave simply because we had extra guests over that came from a nearby hotel . She also banged on the front door and yelled at my niece to stop the party. She assumed those guests were going to stay over and gave them 10 minutes to leave and she waited like a stalker outside until they left. We did overlook the quiet time and she messaged me at like 9 pm or so but I did not see her messages which is what made her come to the property . However , that doesn’t not give her any right to come in yelling and assuming things. In addition, she had a spa service person come a Day after our arrival and they did not notify me. The spa should have been drained before we arrived as the water was mirky and used by a previous group. The bathrooms had used hand soap bottles instead of new ones and the shower near kitchen had a curtain with shower clips that were rusty. There was one iron and did not work very well amd looked maybe 10 years old . The fire alarm kept smoke detectors kept beeping and went off 2 times. One of the 2 bins of trash was already filled when we arrived . The spa was not hot , just warm . Finally, the fried has broken compartments amd it did not cool very well.

Amazing house!
My husband had returned back to the U.S after being gone for a whole year & it was my birthday weekend so us & some close friends were all able to fit comfortably in this house. All our guests (& us) were very impressed with all the beautiful updates and how much room there was for all of us. Everything like the beach & restaurants were all about 20 minutes away so the location of this house is pretty central. I would definitely recommend this home and would book another stay here again!

Family Reunion Stay
We used this home for our trip to San Diego. It was really close to Sea World and the San Diego Zoo, a little further to Legoland. We had eleven adults and seven children in our party. There were rooms for everyone. The house was clean and very roomy. My grandchildren loved running around in the backyard area, while the adults enjoyed the hot tub. I was impressed that there was soap and shampoo in all of the bathrooms because many of these types of properties do not provide them. We had trouble with the door code when we first got there, but a call settled that quickly. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. If you have a large party as we did, this home will be great and is close to many of the attractions in San Diego.

Family Reunion House
We spent June 6,7,8 with our family of 19- 3 generations- grandparents, 4 adult children/spouses and 9 grandchildren ages 18 months to 13 years. We like to rent a house that accommodates all of us under one roof, so adults can visit together at night while the kids are sleeping, we can cook together, cousins can play together, etc. This house is well situated- we visited Legoland, La Jolla Shores, Mormon Batallion Monument downtown San Diego and San Diego zoo. The San Diego airport is close, several grocery stores are nearby. The neighborhood is quiet and safe. There is lots of street parking, and room for 2 cars directly outside the front door. The front of the house is plain but the inside is very nicely decorated, as the photos show. The fenced backyard is private- it backs up to a canyon, so there are no neighbors behind to be bothered by children’s noises at 7 a.m., or adults talking into the night on the back patio. The backyard flows directly from the central living room, and acts as a separate playroom/craft area for the kids. It has artificial turf so doesn’t track in dirt. The hot tub outside holds 4 adults. We had seating for everyone to eat inside, gather in the living room or eat outside. There are TVs in most bedrooms and public areas, plus the pool table on the upstairs landing, and assorted board games. The owners are extremely attentive and live in the neighborhood. Anita replies to emails and texts within the hour. Even her kids sent over fun toys for my grandkids to play with. All my requests- pack and plays, inflatable mattresses, high chair, even taking our family photo, were cheerfully accommodated. Four cooks easily maneuvered at the same time in the kitchen. There were ample pots, pans, knives, etc. The massive island acts as a buffet table and assembling area. The mattresses were newer, linens and towels were nice quality. The bedrooms with bunkbeds were great for kids. The upstairs master suite has a large walk-in closet that we used for a baby bedroom. There is a new full sized washer/dryer downstairs. We had plenty of hot water for lots of showers. My son said it was a 10 out of 10 reunion, and my 11 year old picky granddaughter said she liked the house, so I was pleased at the successful conclusion of our time together- and the house makes a big difference. We recommend it as an affordable and enjoyable alternative to motels for your family reunion.

Great place for a large group or family.
My siblings and I with our spouses took our mother on a trip for her 90 birthday. This house was perfect for us, very clean and comfortable. We loved the big family room and kitchen. We could all be together for meals and play games and talk. There are also nice bedrooms enough for each couple to have privacy. Because of rainy weather we couldn't enjoy the beautiful backyard as much as we would have liked to, but it also provides a nice place to gather. The location of this property was ideal. We were able to get to the airport, the beach, downtown and wild animal park easily. Anita was so helpful when we had a need. I highly recommend this property - we felt safe and enjoyed walking in the neighborhood.
