Great, large place.
Spent a couple of nights in the area. Didn’t have a vehicle. And walked to market and picked up a few groceries. Was in a nice neighborhood. And located in the backyard of a nice house. It was the top floor of the back building. A full 1 bedroom apartment with separate spaces. Bedroom, living room bathroom and kitchen. Wi-Fi was provided.

We loved it!
We stayed for 8 nights because we were getting ready for my daughter's moving to a college dom. It was so nice, safe, pretty and quiet neighborhood that I wanted to live there forever and also very convenient location to everywhere we went to. Costco was so closed, so we went to the gas station a couple of times. The house had everything we needed and was very comfortable. Sean was so good to communicate soon. We would love to stay there again!

Best stay in South Park!
Loved our stay at the Eco House in South Park! Great neighborhood, less than 2 miles from Balboa Park and Zoo. Plenty of street parking, the EV charger made our stay even more convenient. Dined in North Park, everything was so close. Quiet at night, enjoyed the table outside, played games with the kids. Definitely will be coming back!!

Wonderful space for our first trip!
This was the first place my girlfriend and I stayed for our first vacation celebrating our 1 year anniversary. This space was perfect for the two of us. Thia was definitely a amazing place that was very quiet and peaceful. The hot tub, hammock and lights created a amazing scenery that just added on to the experience. Definitely would recommend to any couples or small families.

About the host

Hosted by Rosemary or Sean phone rings both of us

Host profile image
Sean works in renewable energy and is the homeowner. Rosemary is an interior designer and the property manager.

Why they chose this property

Sean and I are eco-conscious. We installed 3 solar panel systems (one on the front house and one on the back house and one on the house in University Heights). There is a fast charging station with reserved parking for your electric car. We harvest rainwater and use laundry grey water for the landscape in the courtyard. The Eco Studio is the perfect combination of beautiful, comfortable yet also sustainable living.

What makes this property unique

South Park is such a unique neighborhood. You will not find any cookie-cutter houses here, unless you consider the 100-year-old craftsman houses which are everywhere you look. It's a beautiful, vibrant, and friendly neighborhood. No big box chain stores/restaurants/shops. Everything has a mom & pop feel to it. But the chain stores are a short drive when you need them.
