Richard takes great pride in his property and it shows. He has thought of almost everything, from snacks and drinks, to beach towels and chairs. The yard is bigger than it seems in the photos! It was completely secure for our dogs, who just loved it. BBQ'Ing on the grill was a real treat. My favorite part was how close to Balboa Park this place is! Seriously walking distance to the zoo! And it's right on a nice, big, loop trail that goes around the park - perfect for dog walking. There are numerous grocery stores and restaurants near by. Easy freeway access, too, to get to other San Diego neighborhoods. Would recommend this for dogs. Would definitely stay again.
