Mountain Top 4 Bdrm Home Along Nature Reserve with Spectacular Views, AC & WiFi

Experience spectacular views in our 4 Bdrm 3 Bath home that includes modern amenities, decks out every door and serene atmosphere.

Nearby hiking trails will take you through San Diego's native habitat to 360 views of the ocean, downtown, Coronado Island and surrounding mountains. Short drive outside the city for a charming and unique stay.

THINGS TO KNOW:

The photos do not do this property justice. The house itself is beautiful with all the amentities you could possibly need to enjoy your stay... but even beyond that is the view from not only the porch but also the huge windows in the living room that let the view cascade through the home. If you're looking for the best experience you could have when visiting San Diego... you've found it here at Hilltop House.

Was in San Diego for a 5 day family vacation. Decided to stay at Heidi and Trevor's property and was not disappointed. The house is great; the view is amazing! The kitchen was well stocked with the basic items that you need to prepare meals. The entire house was extremely clean. The owners earned an A for communication. They responded quickly to all of my messages. Would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend it!
