Large vacation rentals San Diego groups can book whole

Two estates, one gated ranch. Book one for a family or both for a group of up to 50.

A 15 bedroom vacation rental across two estates

Together the estates have 15 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms. Book them side by side and your group shares the ranch without sharing a wall with strangers.

Each house keeps its own kitchen, great room and pool, so early risers and night owls both get their space.

Vacation rentals for large groups, without compromises

Big-group rentals often mean bunk rooms and one overworked kitchen. Here each estate is designed for a full household, with dining tables that seat the whole group and outdoor spaces sized for a party.

Shared amenities include the sport court, the horse pasture, fruit orchards and trails.

Which estate fits your group

Smaller groups usually take one estate. Reunions, weddings and retreats often book both, using one house for gatherings and the other for quieter sleeping.

Bob can walk you through bedroom layouts so grandparents, families with toddlers and teens each land in the right rooms.

How booking works

Text Bob with your dates and headcount. He confirms availability, quotes the stay with any extras, and you book directly with the owner.

Extras include chef-cooked dinners, grocery stocking, daily housekeeping, horseback rides and on-site massage.
