Casa Correcaminos is a great rental property. We loved the location, the multiple beautiful outdoor spaces, and the thoughtful touches like lotion, shampoo and conditioner, and arrival snacks. It was the best stocked place we have ever rented. The bathrooms are newly and nicely renovated, and the beds, sheets, and towels were high quality. The owner is very responsive and helpful. Would definitely rent again!

Very nice house with lots of room and in a perfect location. It’s literally 15-20 minutes from all the attractions in San Diego. I would have given 5-stars, but the master bathroom’s shower was plugged up when we first used it. The plumber came out, but determined it requires a longer term repair so they scheduled that for after we were gone. Again, this wasn’t the fault of the owner so I wouldn’t let it deter you from booking this incredible property.

Perfect location; within walking distance of coffee, dining, entertainment and quiet. Wonderfully furnished condo with comfortable furniture inside and out. We appreciated the added bonus of boogie boards, frisbee and surf boards on the property. We did not need parking (we Ubered around) but parking available. Surfing and beach right there! Dolphins playing and visable from the porch. This is the 2nd time we have stayed at this property. We will keep coming back!

What are the best activities for families in California?

Traveling with Children in California

If you are traveling with children, keeping them entertained will be easy due to the endless number of family-friendly attractions. Disneyland, Universal Studios, and Knott's Berry Farm are some of the popular theme parks in California. There are also many aquariums and zoos, including Monterey Bay Aquarium and San Diego Zoo.

San Francisco's interactive museums are great for inquisitive young learners, and if they love the great outdoors, take them to witness the wonders of Yosemite National Park. Lake Tahoe also offers activities all year-round, from hiking and water sports in summer to skiing in winter.

What are the best places to discover the arts and culture of California?

California’s Art and Culture

There is a wide acceptance of diversity in California and a love of innovative ideas. This is, after all, the birthplace of the 60s hippie movement, home to Hollywood, as well as some of the greatest artists in the world. So if art is what you're looking for, base yourself in Southern California where you'll find all sorts of wonderful outdoor art.

Located in the middle of the desert, Salvation Mountain is an art oasis by local resident Leonard Knight. Made entirely of adobe, straw, clay, and half a million gallons of paint, its combines religious scriptures with colorful flowers, trees, the sun, and birds.

Or check out the Integratron, a dome built in the 50s by George Van Tassel, a self-proclaimed UFO abductee who claims that the planet Venus's inhabitants gave him the instructions to build the structure. Supposedly capable of rejuvenation due to its magnetic fields, it proves that nothing is too eccentric for California.

Meanwhile, the Joshua Tree National Park enthralls with its freaky-yet-cool-looking trees that dot the land. Catch glorious sunsets over the grand desert rock formations.

Wine lovers can savor the experience of the Napa and Sonoma wine countries, with their more than 600 wineries. Besides a world-class culinary scene, Napa is known for its meticulously cultivated grapes, which produce wines that rival French produce. Enjoy tasting the wines while feasting your eyes on rolling hills, beautiful plains, and endless vineyards. The agricultural diversity of the fertile land remains one of Sonoma’s greatest prides—and rightfully so. Enjoy it all from the comfort of your California vacation house.
