Tiny House Farm Stay @ Eden East

FernandaRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Heather & Rob’s tiny home was truly amazing!! The outdoor shower and kitchen were fantastic. Heathers hospitality was through the roof. She was so sweet and offered me some dragonfruit and gave me creamer for my coffee. <3 Stayed for my bday weekend and it was truly all I wanted in a stay. I highly recommend staying here. Soo peaceful!

Lovely Hideaway Studio by Village-Private Patio

MeganRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
This is hands down one of the best stays my husband and I have ever had! Not only was the place super easy to find, but it was well stocked, clean and comfortable. The host, Connie, was extremely kind and flexible with us when our check in was late. She made us feel right at home and the value of the stay far exceeds the price. I highly recommend their granny flat in La Mesa and hope I can come back again very soon!!

Hilltop Casita Mount Helix

AlexisRating, 5 stars1 month ago
This was SUCH a cozy stay! From the detailed instructions to the arrival and departure, everything went perfectly. I was super comfortable working from home here and the views were enchanting! The kitchen was completely equipped with anything you could need for cooking. The entire casita was very clean. The shower was perfect for me and the bed was extremely comfy! The host was super communicative and helpful as well 🤗 I highly recommend this amazing stay! You’ll be at peace - just far enough away from the noise, but close enough to hikes, beaches, and awesome restaurants if that’s what you’re looking for (: Thanks again!
