REVIEWS
- The Maxwell FamilySheila Godkin is far and away the BEST realtor we have ever worked with! She consistently communicated with us, was detail and task oriented while having the warmest and kindest personality. If you are looking for a realtor with strong communication skills, integrity and smarts, Sheila is who you should call. She works extremely hard and was the most professional. We truly enjoyed working with her and would recommend her in the strongest way possible. She is truly outstanding, and you would be lucky to have her as your realtor!
- Karen M.In selling and buying three homes, I have found most realtors do a great job selling themselves upfront but falling far short in their actual abilities. I found the complete opposite experience with Sheila Godkin. She shared her passion for helping people find the right homes and her love of real estate, but she was far too modest in her abilities! She came highly recommended, and she truly has been amazing in all aspects! We found Sheila to be warm, friendly, communicative, and extremely knowledgeable and professional. She did everything she said she would do and more. She really listened as to what we needed and helped us winnow down the options for my new dream home. She was in constant contact regarding emails, paperwork, etc. We knew what to expect at each turn in the process. She truly is the PERFECT realtor in every single way. She is passionate about her clients and truly cares. Anybody would be lucky to work with her.
- Ms. B. SantaluzSheila is always a breath of fresh air to work with on your real estate transaction. She is incredibly hard working and knowledgeable. She made my experience of buying my last home not only enjoyable, but easy and exciting. She has surpassed all my expectations and I highly recommend her.
- Carol B.I cannot say enough about how amazing Sheila is to work with. I have had the pleasure of working with Sheila on multiple transactions over the years. She has always been extremely professional, effective, efficient and has always made the process of selling and buying worry- free for me. I cannot imagine any agent doing more for you than she does. Sheila is my agent for life.
- M. Block EstateSheila is the epitome of professionalism and efficiency. She goes above-and-beyond what is expected in a realtor. We needed to sell our father’s estate after his passing. She immediately jumped in and staged the property, utilizing and relocating the furniture within the home making aesthetic changes without additional expense to our family trust. She knew exactly how to make an incredibly stressful time in our lives seem much more palatable. In addition, she had professional photographs taken after the restaging, created a drone video and employed a videographer onsite to capture the beauty of our property and grounds, and really brought the home to life. Within a short period of time, our property sold.
- The McCool FamilyI was impressed with Sheila’s ability to handle complex transactions. She has a large network of advisors who provide insight for remodeling, landscaping, gardening, and interior design. All those advisors are helpful when you are deciding to buy in The Ranch. We were fortunate in that we did not hit many roadblocks in the home buying process. However, Sheila was always attentive, empathetic to our concerns, and knew that we wanted to complete the process. Home buying can be stressful and working with Sheila was much easier than previous buys due to her listening skills, hard work, and kindness. Sheila has an excellent eye for quality, both in construction and home sites. Due to her attention to detail and listing to our wishes, we were able to make quick decisions on several homes prior to the one that we bought.
- The Aaron FamilySheila Godkin was an outstanding agent for us before escrow, during escrow, and after. Since closing, she has continued to help our family with any questions we have. Sheila was incredibly professional from our first phone call, which made our family feel extremely confident in her services. She was extremely communicative during the escrow process and helped us buy our home with her passion, heart, and care for our needs. We could not have asked for a better agent to represent us in our purchase. Thank you so much Sheila!
- Anandakumar FamilyThough the market was a buyers’ market at the end of last year, Sheila was patient, persistent and diligent in selling our property. When it came to buying a replacement property, she was part of the entire process and allocated all the time needed to find the replacement property in time.

WHAT'S GOING ON AROUND TOWN?
How to Visit Disneyland in 1 Day – By A Local
Walt Disney once said “Disneyland will never be completed. It will continue to grow as long as there is imagination left in the world.”On July 17, 1955, Walt Disney’s land of fantasy, enchantment, magic and futurism opened its gates and welcomed the public to its 160-acre theme park in Anaheim, California. And the rest is history.Disneyland in 1 Day is quite ambitious and we want to help you make the most of your time at this magical place. Our family is a huge fan of Disney and visit the parks at least once a year or more. Over the years, the park Walt called “the happiest place on Earth” has expanded to what is now 500 acres, adding even more lands and attractions. And though this magnificent theme park is a happy place indeed, for those who visit for the first time or remember the low-tech days when enjoying the park was much simpler, it can be somewhat frustrating and overwhelming.That’s why our Disney family is here to offer some insider tips and sound advice for navigating the park and getting as much out of a visit as possible, along with the not-to-be-missed attractions.When to VisitThough there is no real “off-peak” time of year to visit, planning is essential because there is a vast number of locals who hold annual passes and visit often. The ideal times to enjoy Disneyland best are mid-September through mid-November (before Thanksgiving break), mid-January through mid-March and on Tuesdays through Thursdays. The crowds are less, and you’ll likely find shorter wait times for popular attractions. Ways to Maximize Your VisitStay in a Disneyland Resort HotelIf you stay in one of Disneyland Resort hotels, you’ll have early access to the park (currently 30 minutes), before it opens to the general public. You’re not only walking distance to the park entrance, but you can knock out some of the top attractions before the crowds build up. But you need to be in line and ready to go the moment the gates open.If you’re not staying in a Disneyland Resort, be sure to get in the Disneyland Park queue early, as the longer the day goes on, the more crowds and extended wait times you’ll experience.Purchase a Lightning Lane Multi-PassIf you do happen to visit Disneyland on a busy day or a day that’s busier than expected, you have the option to purchase a Lightning Lane Multi-Pass. Yes, it’s going to cost you more over and above your already expensive park ticket, but it can ensure you have the opportunity to experience most of the top attractions that day without long wait lines. Current pricing runs about $32 per ticket per day for the upgrade. I highly recommend it to make the most of your 1 day in Disneyland. The main benefit is not standing in a lengthy stand-by line for an attraction, which can be anywhere from 45 minutes to 120 minutes or longer at peak times on a busy day.The Lightning Lane (now called Multi-Pass) allows guests to reserve a time for an attraction within a one-hour window. The caveat is that you can only reserve a particular attraction once a day, but there are many others to choose from and once you enter the one-hour window, you may choose another attraction.It should be noted however, that the absolute newest and most popular attractions are not included on the Multi-Pass. They are however available with an added Lightning Lane Single rider purchase for each ride (prices vary).Is it worth it? It depends how badly you want to get into the attraction and your tolerance for long wait lines.Get to Know the Layout of the ParkIt’s important to understand the layout of Disneyland, especially if this is your first visit or you haven’t been to the expanded park in a long while. Guests enter the park and head straight down Main Street, U.S.A. filled with shops and restaurants. Main Street ends at a circle in front of the castle with spokes leading to other lands. Adventureland and Frontierland can be accessed to the left, Fantasyland directly through Sleeping Beauty Castle and Tomorrowland to the right.New Orleans Square is located behind Adventureland, Mickey’s Toon Town behind Fantasyland and Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge is accessed through Frontierland.Since you only have time to explore Disneyland in 1 Day, you unfortunately can’t see everything. The age and preference of your family members and friends will determine what attractions you see as top priority, so, we’re listing the most popular (and yes, most in demand) attractions in the park.Don’t Miss these Top Rides & Activities During your 1 Day in DisneylandStar Wars Rise of the ResistanceStar Wars: Galaxy’s Edge is the newest land at Disneyland Park, and typically the newer attractions see the biggest visitor demand.You’ll want to beat feet to this incredibly immersive attraction as soon as you enter the park to access the wait line as early as possible to enjoy the experience of being recruited by The Resistance and battling the villainous First Order aboard a star destroyer. Unfortunately, the complex ride breaks down often, but you may be lucky getting there early.While here, make sure to experience this thrilling interactive smuggling adventure as a pilot, engineer or gunner in a Galaxy, Far, Far Away as part of the Millenium Falcon crew on the Millenium Falcon Smuggler’s Run.Big Thunder Mountain RailroadLocated in Frontierland, this thrilling coaster ride through a haunted gold mine is the “wildest ride in the wilderness.” Ride it during the day, then hop on again after dark for a whole new rip-roaring adventure you’re guaranteed to love.Walt Disney’s Enchanted Tiki RoomThough there never seems to be much of a queue waiting to get into this attraction in Adventureland, it offers a respite along with a sweet and delightful presentation. A ‘cast’ of over 150 talking, singing and dancing birds and flowers along with a magic fountain and tiki drummers and totem poles that come to life make this a favorite throwback attraction that has never grown old since it first opened in the Disneyland Park in 1963.Pirates of the Caribbean“Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate’s life for me.” You’ll never get that song out of your head after a New Orleans Square ride on a swashbuckling cruise through caves and into Caribbean waters plagued by buccaneer scoundrels. One of the most exciting parts of the cruise is spotting the appearances of the most famous pirate of them all, Johnny Depp, i.e. Captain Jack Sparrow. Fun fact: Did you know that the HMS Surprise, the ship used to film Pirates of the Caribbean, is at the Maritime Museum in San Diego?Haunted MansionThis immensely popular dark ride attraction also located in New Orleans Square takes riders on a spooky tour through a haunted plantation manor filled with ghosts, ghouls and spirits.Guests who visit during October through the end of December will be treated to a frightfully festive haunted transformation inspired by Tim Burton’s Nightmare Before Christmas. The Haunted Mansion Holiday complete with Jack Skellington, Sally, Oggie Boogie and Zero is unique to Disneyland only.Space MountainThis indoor, space-themed roller coaster in Tomorrowland opened in May, 1977 as the second coaster in Disneyland Park after Matterhorn Bobsleds.The smooth, thrilling, ride that practically takes place in the complete dark features a race through the cosmos to the edge of the galaxy with drops, sharp bends and other fascinating turns. It’s a thrill for all ages.It’s a Small WorldWe never tire of this precious whimsical boat ride that debuted at the 1964-1965 New York World’s Fair. Located in Fantasyland, the song-filled journey via canal traverses the globe. Along the route, a cast of 300 audio-animatronic dolls in authentic national costumes representing children from all over the world sing the timeless classic “It’s a Small World (After All)” in their native tongues. It is a special feel-good moment of global togetherness.Peter Pan’s FlightObviously, the wish of humans to fly has made this attraction the most popular in all of Fantasyland. Though the fantasy area right behind the castle offers other fairy tale attractions like Pinocchio’s Daring Journey and Snow White’s Enchanted Wish, Peter Pan’s Flight always has a wait line. There’s just something about soaring out the window over London to Never, Never Land with the boy who just wouldn’t grow up.Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway RailwayMickey’s Toontown’s animated and colorful neighborhood celebrates Walt Disney’s original characters such as Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck and Goofy. Playful attractions all focus on these delightful characters but the most fun and most popular of these is Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway. Climb aboard this runaway train for a zippy, zany and fun adventure through cartoon world. Even the big kids love it!Final Thoughts on a Day in DisneylandWhile Disneyland offers many other attractions and experiences throughout its various lands, we’ve covered the main ones that most visitors hope to check off their wish list.Downloading the Disneyland app will provide the best and most updated information on wait times, ride closures and more. This makes it super easy to adjust your itinerary and make the most of your jam packed Disneyland in 1 Day adventure. But for those who still like to have a paper map in hand, these are available at the gate or at many of the shops throughout the park.

Get Your Spook on at Howl-O-Scream at SeaWorld San Diego
It’s not too late to freak yourself out this Halloween season, and if you’re a fan of chills and thrills, you can’t miss out on Howl-O-Scream at SeaWorld San Diego.Howl-O Scream combines that thrill rides from SeaWorld and interweaves them with five different haunted houses designed, quite frankly, to scare the bejesus out of you. It’s similar to the way other theme parks like Knott’s Berry Farm transform themselves into something out of your nightmares, but Howl-O-Scream has its own offerings that make it stand out among the pack.How Hall-O-Sceam stands outFor one, a few of the haunted houses come with hidden speakeasies, and they post the password for them on the Howl-O-Scream Instagram stories every day. I’m sure they’re not the only ones in the world who do this, but it’s the only one out of the three of these types of theme park Halloweens I’ve been to that’s done that, so it was a win for me.There’s also the added factor of the rollercoasters being near the water. Staring at the blanket of stars elongated over the ocean sends shivers down my spine just thinking about it. I hadn’t visited SeaWorld prior to this experience, so it was my first opportunity to check out the rides, which I loved.Just one quick thing…The one negative I have, before I go any further, is that they didn’t fully honor our ticket types. Yes, the tickets were complimentary media passes, but they were ones that clearly stated — both on the physical ticket and in the e-mails that delivered them — that they were tickets that included front-of-the-line passes for both the haunted houses and the rollercoasters.After some back-and-forth and some unwillingness to show me what “they saw on their side,” the park eventually honored the front-of-the-line for the haunted houses, but not the rollercoasters. I would have argued more if we had actually paid for the ticket, but it was a little upsetting when it was all clearly stated, and would have been infuriating had I put money into the ticket. In the end, we only wound up going on one rollercoaster because of the wait times, but the one we did get to go on was awesome.Welcome to the Carnival of ChaosI digress, and even though it was a speed bump, it most definitely did not ruin the night. I recommend getting there right at 7, if you’re able, to attend the opening ceremony — or, rather, the opening SCAREmony. The host welcomes you to the Carnival of Chaos, and you get to be there when they unleash the spooks that walk among you.I understand they can’t touch you, but that doesn’t change the creep factor at all. It doesn’t matter if you tell me the chainsaw has no blade. A masked man chasing you with a real chainsaw is still scary. And in this day and age, how is anyone going to promise me he’s not going to snap?That, of course, is all part of the fun. A few of the spooks are actually great to talk to if you’re brave enough to face them head on and crack a joke. We wound up having a great conversation with the host of the Carnival, who gave us a tip on how to find the speakeasy in the Circus of the Damned.I won’t spoil all of the locations for the speakeasies (they’ll list them with the password), but they’re worth checking out, if you can. I also recommend getting the pass they wound up letting us have, the Front Line Fear, because it’s worth it to skip the lines for the haunted houses. They are the main attraction, after all, and the lines for them nearly tripled what we saw for the rides on the night we went.Take a walk through the haunted houses — if you dareMind you, if you wind up going to the Circus of the Damned, be aware that it’s a 3D Maze and it’s terrifying. I wound up running around the corners screaming the password for the speakeasy so much I wound up just getting shown to it. Outside of the Circus, it’s up to you what type of scare you’re looking for in regard to the other houses. They each offer something different and they’re all unique in their own ways.For example, in Simon’s Slaughterhouse, you’ll wind up in a bloody meat-packing maze while chased by butchers with buzz saws. In Area 64: Alien Outbreak, you’ll move through mad scientists and horrifying aliens in one of the darker houses. Over at the Nightmare Experiment, you’ll run around with patients at the botched end of an experiment, with the Doctor running around to find you. There’s also the Death Water Bayou, which might have been the scariest one for me as we faced the curse of the evil Swamp Witch.The scare zones keep you on your toesIn between the haunted houses — which will stick with you, trust me — the spooks also walk around in between locations. If you download the app for the park, it will also hightlight where each of the different “scare zones” are in between the houses. Just in case you’re afraid of dolls, be aware there’s a whole bridge of them (including a live one) that you’ll have to cross through in the Deadly Toys zone. It reminded me of the Island of Dolls in Xochimilco in Mexico City, which is great for the food but up there with the spooks.While you’re at it, be prepared to run as someone chases you in the Graveyard, face the scarecrows in the all-new All Hallow’s Harvest, hang with the vampires in the Red Moon Revelry, and join citizens in their search for the murderous Jack Ripper.Stop for some live entertainment and give your heart a breakOn that latter note with Jack Ripper, that’s actually one of the more fun things about Howl-O Scream. Outside of the scares, they also have live entertainment and “vile vignettes” for you to enjoy while you bring your blood pressure down.Among the shows is the Monster Stomp, which is a “rock and rhythm spectacular” in the Nautilus Ampitheater that explores the “menace and mystery” of Jack the Ripper. It’s the longest show available, so make sure you check for the showtimes so you don’t miss out.In between, the “vile vignettes” are smaller interactions within and between the scare zones for added entertainment. Truthfully, we mostly walked by these, as they’re predominantly just add-ons in the scare zones and outside the haunted houses. They’re still good for the entertainment, but we didn’t stop long enough to really watch any of them (though part of that was because we were afraid things would pop up behind us.)What are you waiting for?In the libations department, they’ve also got plent of specialty drinks, like the “blood” syringe, for those who enjoy a good libation in between all of the madness. Perhaps it will take the edge off, or maybe it’ll make it all that much worse — up to you to decide.Whether you’re seeking a thrilling date night for a family-filled night of scares, you don’t want to miss out on Hall-O-Scream this year. You can grab your tickets at the SeaWorld website, which start at $41.99, or check out Groupon for special deals. They offer discounts for park members, and Howl-O-Scream runs through November 2, 2024.Last Updated on October 29, 2024 by Maria HaaseThe post Get Your Spook on at Howl-O-Scream at SeaWorld San Diego appeared first on San Diego Explorer.

The 6 Most Haunted Places in San Diego
When people think about haunted places, they usually think about New Orleans or some old colonial town on the East Coast or an even older European town. You don’t usually associate it with California. However, there are a few haunted places in San Diego that could give those ancient towns a run for their money. San Diego has more than just the Whaley House. Let me tell you all about them.Skyline of San Diego, CaliforniaThe Most Haunted Places in San DiegoThe William Heath Davis House in Haunted San DiegoBorn in 1822 in Hawaii, William Heath Davis was known for his thirst for adventure. In 1838, he made his way to the mainland of what is now known as San Francisco. There he roamed and explored all the way to the Sacramento Valley. Due to his knack for all things wilderness, he was chosen to lead John Sutter up the river. He helped usher in the gold rush. He was one of the few who did not get money from mining. Davis hit it big by selling supplies to make mining easier. So by the time he turned 28, he was one of the wealthiest men in California. He was not a man of greed but of opportunity. His vision was to build a town by the San Diego Bay. But ultimately that plan failed and his friend Alonzo Horton took the idea and built San Diego. San Diego – Gaslamp QuarterThe house itself was built by Davis in 1850 and is the oldest house in San Diego. The paranormal activity is said to be because it had been a hospital for a short period. In that time, many died there and many lived except for William Heath Davis. Visitors claim to see an unknown Victorian woman and a couple greeting them. Security has reported the lights going out before the alarm being set but when morning comes, a light in the back is turned on. Even before the house was wired for electricity, people have reported the lights going on and off. While the ghosts remain unknown, it is undoubtedly one of the most haunted places in San Diego.Book A Tour Here to Find Out MoreOld Point Loma Lighthouse at sunset in San Diego, CaliforniaThe Old Point Loma Lighthouse There is nothing creepier than an old lighthouse that is said to be plagued by ghosts. Except maybe an abandoned asylum. Back in 1855, (yes I know ghosts seem to be all from the same era) a lightkeeper first set foot in the Point Loma lighthouse. The light helped sailors travel safely around the shores. However, it was put into retirement once a more opportune spot was found.Today, instead of providing a helping beacon, the lighthouse is open for tours to the public. However, visitors have reported cold spots, the sound heavy footfalls, and a menacing fearful feeling of someone right behind them. Some say that the specter of Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo lurks around as he eagerly awaits to cross over. Others think it was the final lightkeeper, Captain Robert Decatur Israel who keeps an eye over his beloved lighthouse. Perhaps both. Tickets for tours are available at the ticket table but you can visit the website to find out about their free tour days here.Old Point Loma LighthouseBerkeley Steam Ferry BoatToday, Berkeley Steam Ferry Boat is home to the offices of the Maritime Museum, its library, special events, and, most importantly, spirits of past guests.In its prime, the steamboat carried over 2000 passengers since the 1800s. It held some of the best events with esteemed guests. Some say that a few of those guests never left. Current workers report apparitions of a man with a fedora that is believed to be the ghost of John O. Norbom. He died in an explosion in 1911. Others believe it’s another guest waiting to reboard the boat. Workers also report heavy footfalls that might belong to the man in the fedora. He’s seen so often that workers simply pay him no mind now. Explore The Boat HereThe Whaley House: Old Town San Diego Haunted HouseNot only is the Whaley House one of the most haunted places in San Diego and the Old Town San Diego haunted house, it is also one of the most haunted places in America. The long twisted history of the curse of the Whaley family runs long. The house itself was built over the exact spot where a man named Yankee Jim Robinson or James Robinson was hanged for stealing a boat. Since the house was built, the Whaley family, especially Mrs. Whaley, experienced the pressure of spirits.Today, the Whaley House is the top attraction of every haunted San Diego tour. Visitors and employees report cold spots, apparitions, strange feelings, and even Mrs. Whaley’s signature scent. Whether the house has malicious intent or not is up to you.Tours are available and tickets can be purchased at the ticket booth next to the house.Read our full article on the history of the Whaley House here. The ParlorHaunted San Diego’s Horton Grand HotelThe Horton Grand Hotel is a restoration of the old Grand Hotel Horton and the Brooklyn Kahle Saddlery Hotel. They were originally built in 1886 in two different locations. Both hotels were about to be demolished so San Diego bought them each in the 1970s for $1 each. Horton Grand Hotel San DiegoInterestingly enough, both hotels were dismantled then combined to build the Horton Grand Hotel then reopened in 1986. The whole building, even the 100-year old staircase, is original. Some even say that a few of the original guests still roam around the hotel. Among those still lurking is Roger Whittaker. He was a gambler who hid in the armoire of room #309 with a gunshot wound. He would never recover as his creditors found him and shot him right there. Lights flicker in 309 and some report the bed shaking, the armoire opening and closing in the middle of the night, misty glow, and the sound of footsteps. Whether it’s real or fake is up to you.If you want to see for yourself, you can book a room at the Horton Grand Hotel here. Hotel Del CoronadoThe tale of Hotel Del is a melancholic one and never fails to break my heart. Coronado is a beautiful little island in San Diego. But, alas, its beauty could not save sweet Ms. Kate Morgan. In 1892, she checked into the hotel under the name “Lottie A Bernard” but the poor thing would not check out. Instead, after a 5-day long stay, her body was found dead with a gunshot wound. According to the story, she was there to meet with a lover. He didn’t show. In her heartbreak, the beautiful young woman took her own life. Today, people refer to her as “the beautiful stranger”. She roams the hotel harmlessly in search of a lover she shall never meet. She most often appears in room 302 or what is now room 3327. Experiences with her are usually fleeting sightings or harmless pranks. The Hotel Del Coronado is one of the most popular beach resorts in San Diego and you can book your room at the Hotel Del Coronado here.Read our post on the most haunted hotels in San Diego here>>Why Do All Ghosts Seem to Be From the Same Era?I’m not an expert, nor do I have a degree in the subject. However, my theory is that justice was hard to come by at that time. Ghosts and specters usually remain because of a traumatic death, attachment to the location, or unfinished business. It’s my belief that these souls are stuck in our world because many of them suffered terribly before death and have yet to let go of their grievances. Said grievances were more extreme in the mid-20th century and before.The supernatural world is all around us. One of the most auspicious times of the year is of course Halloween. There is a ton of scary stuff to do in San Diego on Halloween, so if you are into exploring the spooky, this might be a great time to visit. You never know the history of a place until you really look into it. Some of the most beautiful buildings and museums in town can be the most haunted places in San Diego. And if you are in San Diego for Halloween, make sure to visit the 2 best Haunted Houses in San Diego – recommended by a Haunted House Scare Actress. Look into the history and horror of San Diego.
