About this house rental
Plan the perfect family reunion or getaway in this one-of-a-kind 2,800 sq ft. historic home. Built in 1927 by the famous Scripps family in the unique "storybook" style; the home has been remodeled with the latest features to enhance its old world charm. This large house features an open-plan living, dining and kitchen area, 5 separate bedrooms, 4 bathrooms and loads of outdoor patio space, providing the ideal mix for both quiet relaxing and fun social time. During the summer season, rentals run from Saturday to Saturday.
Located in the heart of Pacific Beach (PB) San Diego's premier beach destination, the location can't be beat. Pack your wagon with surf and sand toys and head west for 2 blocks to the Pacific Ocean. Or, switch gears and head south 2 blocks to Mission Bay for a leisurely bike ride or to read a book on the sand. Forget something at the store? Ralph's supermarket is a 5 min. walk away, as are a wide variety of restaurants and shops for every taste.

10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Nov 2025
This home is very conveniently located walking distance to beach, back bay, grocery store and many restaurants/bars in PB. The house is well equipped, spacious and provides a great atmosphere for socializing in small and large groups. We enjoyed the rooftop spa and great sunsets from the roof deck.Ryan is terrific to communicate with and very accommodating. We also enjoyed the 6 beach cruisers to experience the beach boardwalk. I’d definitely stay again.

Excellent property and host
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Oct 2025
This house was great and worked perfectly for my family of 10. The neighborhood was lovely and within walking distance of everything we wanted to do. My family took full advantage of the bicycles as well as the pool and hot tub. The owner/manager was right next door and available whenever we had a question or needed anything. I would highly recommend this home.
