We stayed at Erin's casita for six nights and had an excellent experience. It's located in the pretty and quiet residential neighborhood of Talmadge, at the end of a cul de sac, overlooking a canyon. You'll enjoy having a morning coffee or evening drinks on the large terrace, admiring the views. You'll need a car to get around town, but everything in the SD area is a fairly short drive away.
The casita is incredibly clean and fully stocked for your stay...Erin has literally thought of everything. If you do need anything, she lives next door and is easily reachable. Overall, it was a great experience, one of the best home rentals we've ever done. Highly recommend!
