First of all, Don always got back to me right away about any questions I had! Second: We LOVED our stay in Mission Beach. The location is perfect! Steps to the beach, restaurants, bars, bike rentals, and the amusement park. They provided extra bath towels, TP, and dishsoap as well as ample linens and blankets. I live in San Diego but took a 2 week vacation in Mission Beach and felt right at home. I was a little concerned because one side of the house is on Mission Blvd. which is a busy street. But the bedrooms are on the other side of the house and it is completely quiet. The patio is perfect and the barbecue works great. We absolutely did not want to come home. Everything was great. We had 3 cars there and Don provided us with a 2 car parking space and we had no trouble getting parking on the street for our 3rd car. Visitors can park a block away at Santa Clara Recreation Center...which also has fabulous kayak, paddle board, jet ski, etc. rentals. We did not rent there but it seems easy and it is only a block away. The location is half way between Pacific Beach and Belmont Park (amusement park)...and all within walking distance. We were quite happy there
