Wonderful Stay

Beautiful elevated property with stunning views of the hills and surrounding farms. Spacious enough to easily house three couples and accommodate two dogs. We took advantage of the hot tub and deck on a daily basis. The host was gracious enough to leave us a bottle of wine for Christmas.

Rarely do you see all reviews with 5 stars. And I agree. The view, the pool. So relaxing. We barely even left the property. And so private. We really enjoyed our stay

Beautiful property

The house was beautiful and spacious with so many amenities we didn't have time to enjoy them all on our short weekend trip. The house was perfect for us; allowing the teenagers to stay upstairs as a "hangout", and the adults to stay downstairs away from the giggling. It was the perfect holiday!

Peaceful Retreat

What an amazing stay! We were in the Delmar area for a National soccer tournament and chose this listing for the proximity to the venue, but also to provide us with a place each day to unwind and recharge. Fat Bottom Farm provided exactly what we wanted plus more! It was peaceful, tranquil, with the most beautiful sunsets. The host Benjamin was attentive and incredibly helpful going above and beyond for us the entire stay. We will be back!

Relaxing

The property offered enough amenities to keep us busy on our stay. The bathrooms were beautiful, kitchen offered all gadgets and dishes, and beds were super comfortable. There were a few TVs, but we only tuned in for an hour or so. Games kept us entertained, along with shuffle board table and pool table.

Plenty of things to do at the property for all ages. Games, pool, shuffleboard, darts, not to mention the pool. Outdoor space is very peaceful. Remote location, but fairly close to town to get supplies, or go to eat. All around a great place to relax, unwind and reconnect with family. We did have one small issue with the water (neighbor below cut the main line), the hosts got on the problem and their handyman had it fixed within a few hours. Not even long enough to be an inconvenience. Hadley came by and made sure we were ok, offered plenty of options in case it was prolonged. Overall great hosts, great property, great time had by all!

Amazing view just outside of town

This place is really cool! Communication from the host was excellent. We loved the view and the fact that this property was just outside of town. Lots of privacy! The house was stocked very well including condiments, extra batteries, coffee, multiple throw blankets on every couch, soap + shampoo in every bathroom and shower. Everything you'd need. Being able to pick fresh fruit in the yard was a great experience. Next time we're in San Diego, we will rent this property again.

First Family Vacation

This place and the host are amazing!! The house and the property is beautiful. The views from anywhere in the house is breathtaking. There was something for everyone to do from kids to adults. They have the big items there for you, but to me it was the little items that set them apart from others. It was nice that the host (Benjamin) was in contact as he said he would and also very on top of things even before we asked. IE: beach equipment, townies directions, and fresh fruits. I would give more stars if I could. Thank you again for an amazing experience and being part of this trip. Aloha!!

Great spot

This place is out in the country and very private. Even though it is secluded, it is actually really close to lots of entertainment and attractions. The house has a big kitchen, and a couple big common areas, plus a huge back patio. It has breath taking views, and lots to do. Hot tub, gym, pool, cornhole, pool table, ping pong just to mention a few. It will easily handle a couple family’s. The owner was very accommodating and friendly. We will visit again.

Amazing weekend

My friends and I came for a relaxing girls weekend and it did not disappoint. The manager Hadley was amazing and very responsive! The property was in a great area where we could relax but still be able to go out and enjoy some city time. The atmosphere and view was beyond expectation. We loved this place and have even talked about coming back!

Exceptional in Every Way!

The owners online pictures and description of their property are detailed and accurate of what we found in this property to be true. The hosts were very welcoming and accessible to answer questions etc. It was like staying at a resort! With the views, amenities, pool, sauna, hot tub, games etc. we really could have stayed there without doing anything else! Of course we did, but what an oasis to come back to. Highly recommend for a multi age group family. Our family will definitely be back!

50th wedding anniversary celebration

Just outstanding! Benjamin could not have been more accommodating…..I asked if there was an Espresso Coffe Pot and he said there wasn’t but he would buy one…and he did. We were 3 families and we all had our separate “quarters” giving us plenty of privacy. And there were games….so many games. I cannot say enough how wonderful the accommodations were and how pleasant our stay was. Thanks Benjamin for sharing your beautiful home wit us.

Beautiful house on a mountainside with incredible views of the ocean, valleys and mountains. Family enjoyed the deck and fire-pit and the home has many games to stay entertained. Ben is an amazing host, when I needed anything he was easy to contact and very helpful. Home is also close to many great attractions. Will be returning again in the future with the family.

Wonderful stay!

We had a fantastic stay! Benjamin and Hadley are great hosts, who were very responsive and made sure we had everything we needed. The house itself is incredible, with breathtaking views and plenty of space. This is also a great house for kids, for it has a big upstairs area with a movie area, games, pool table, and a big bedroom with three beds. We didn't have that many people, but I could see how it would be ideal if a couple families wanted to share the rental. It was perfect for our vacation, and one of the best rentals we have ever booked!

What a property!

The property before even entering the house is absolutely stunning. The views are breathtaking from every angle. There are so many great amenities offered with the property, unfortunately, the California weather didn't cooperate for us so didn't get to spend as much time outside as we would have liked. The inside is gorgeous as well, 3 bedrooms on the main level and an upstairs that boasts a room with three large beds and a game room/family room and additional bathroom. The property managers were extremely responsive. The house was easy to check into and didn't lack any essential item. All bathrooms were stocked with shampoo, conditioner and body wash. Enough towels for everyone! We would love to stay here again if we head back to CA! Thank you for a great stay.
