About this property

Casa De Norte: Hillside Oasis w/ Saltwater Pool & Spa

Casa De Norte is the perfect way to enjoy the indoor/outdoor lifestyle California is famous for!

-Poolside pergola offers a relaxing spot to enjoy the shaded outdoors & is accessible via 3 sunroom, master & bunk bedrooms (Sunroom equipped w/ door chimes & bedroom also has childproof deadbolt to prevent unsupervised access to pool).
-If you’d rather soak up some sun there’s 2 loungers ready for relaxing along with a dining table & umbrella for an al fresco lunch.
-Grab a book from the game room bookshelves & head out to the Queen bedroom hammock (one of our favorite spots) to enjoy a nap surrounded by the hillside & bird song.
-Binge se of your favorite shows from the sunroom soda while easily keeping an eye & ear on those in the pool via many patio doors/windows. The Roku (sunroom TV) or Prime Stick (Bedroom) make it easy to sign into your streaming accounts or home cable network.

*Pool towels are provided & the pergola coffee table holds a revolving selection of children's toys, arm floats, etc.

----NOTE----
*Door alarms are installed on bunk & sunroom patio doors to help prevent littles from accessing pool area without supervision (may be manually switch these off). There is also a child safety lock for the front door. In addition the bunk room patio door had a deadbolt system that requires unique un-locking procedure unlikely to be accomplished by children.

*Beach sand has a habit of clogging the pool filter so we kindly ask you make sure to rinse any toys out after the beach :)

Casa De Norte
The house, although a little dated was well equipped for a great family vacation. Our grandkids loved the pool. The house is located close to Walmart, Target and Stater Bros making groceries easy to pick up. Jessica and Justin were quick to help with a couple of questions. Loved that everything labeled and notes around the house to explain how to use things. It took the guess work finding the way things worked. Thanks for a great Holiday Home

Visiting Family In Escondido
I stayed here with my wife, mom, aunt, and 2 year old son. The layout of the home was really great for my family, and the safety alarms on the doors were super helpful for my young child. The rooms were comfortable and clean, overall a success. The pool was expensive to heat (we stayed in October) but it was really lovely. Views from the deck were great, an awesome outside hangout. We stocked up on bottled water and foods. There are some random leftovers from prior guests. It was convenient to where we were visiting family members, but was an expensive stay.

Great place to relax!
Stayed at the property while our daughter recovered from surgery. The pool area and sunroom are great places to relax as a family and we felt very at home during the stay. The owners were very easy to communicate with and even dropped by to give us the lighter for the fire pit after we could not locate one in the house.

About the host

Hosted by Jessica

Host profile image
We remodeling what is now 'Casa De Norte' over the years as time & money allowed. When done it had become a special hideaway among our busy area of the world. Upon starting a new project we felt other pol might enjoy using CDN as home base & our rental journey began!

When we're not remodeling the house next door we're usually on another job site... Justin owns a termite company & Jessica works as a decorative finish painter.

Why they chose this property

Soaking in the salt-water spa while enjoying the stunning displays of color & beauty the sunsets bring to the hillside. One of my personal favorites is taking a nap in the hammock off the backside of the house surrounded by the hillside, birds, and butterflies - it feels so secluded it's hard to believe you're in a major metropolitan area.

What makes this property unique

-Salt-water pool and spa leave your skin baby soft while preventing the common swimsuit bleaching & eye sting that comes with other pools. burning eyes & bleached swimsuits.

-Sunset views across the hillside (especially in the fall and spring).

-Hillside location allowing for completely private hammock naps surrounding by singing birds and beauty.

-Sunroom's multiple patio doors, windows, and attached pergola. Making it convenient for watching littles in the pool without baking in the sun.
