The only reason I gave this place 4 stars instead of 5 for accuracy is because it is one of the few times I have stayed somewhere that I was surprised how much nicer it actually was for many reasons. First the location is fabulous, it is a part of the bay which is off the main drag so it is quiet during the week and exciting on the weekend and just lovely. Secondly, the views from this place were not well depicted in the descriptions and specifically from the living room and master bedroom (which I took a picture of). Thirdly, the kitchen had quite a bit of cooking items and also had some great appliances to use and was nice size with a large table with many leafs and open to a large living room. Fourthly, the patio was much larger than I thought it was going to be so we could put our kayaks there and many other items as well. Lastly, the fact that you could walk right out ground level to the bay was an absolute delight and made the vacation over the top for being easy and increasing the quality of the trip. James and dixie are super easy to work with and they were very easy to communicate with and get help if needed. We will be going back again next year and look forward to staying at this location, one of my favorite places all in all that I've stayed in Mission/Pacific beach and I've been going to 20 years now, so that says a lot.
