We are just a short walk to the beach. A scenic trail to the beach starts just a few steps from the house. #3\. We are in a great location, on a quite residential neighborhood with little traffic. #4\. We have a beautifully landscaped grassy yard looking out to the ocean. Enjoy the ocean while dining on the patio, sunbathing in the yard, or sitting around the fire pit with a beverage at sunset. #5\.

Absolutely loved this property. We spent most of our time outside relaxing in the yard - sometimes around the fire pit. We also loved walking the trail system that circles the lagoon that is right by the property. The house had everything we needed and was well appointed. I had trouble opening the door - my fault! and the host responded very promptly. No other issues at all. The most relaxing trip. I am already trying to see when we can come back. Thank you!! ##### AZ Attorney Stayed 3 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Breanna H. Mar 23, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing views This is a great property. We loved the view of the ocean every morning and evening. It was very close to the beach, and we walked most of the time. The drive was 2 minutes and easy also. The BBQ was very nice and easy to use so it made outdoor dinners the thing to do. I would recommend bringing an extension cord so you can plug into the outlet in the main bedroom. My phone cord was too short. I also thought the main bed was on the harder side, but I like soft beds so it’s really an individual preference. We loved our stay and would absolutely love to stay here again! ##### Breanna H. Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Renee V. Aug 19, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### uncomfortable beds🛌 The location of this VRBO is great. You are close to everything. You have views of the ocean and the trail entrance to lagoon is in front of the house. The host is very responsive and accommodating. The only advice we had was get better beds. The beds are horrible and our stay was horrible because no one got a good nights rest. I am not sure why places that rent don’t invest in good beds. It would make this place so much more valuable! Also, small items stocked in the home would have been nice…for example coffee! That would have been a nice touch. House in need of repair and sparse in supplies which is why having a cozy bed would have been so nice! I would say great location but overshadowed by way uncommon beds. ##### Renee V.

May 17, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Affordable slice of paradise Everything was as advertised. Even better in person. We had a great time and enjoyed the yard and the location is only a 25 minute walk to the heart of Carlsbad. 5 minute walk to Tamarack beach and with the included parking pass it was perfect for our family of 4\. It’s at the end of a dead end street which people do park along the road throughout the day. It doesn’t really interfere with the view and the front yard is landscaped very well so it feels very cozy and private. It was quiet even on cinco de mayo holiday. As far as the home goes we kept all the windows open and the breeze was perfect. Big mirrors in the bedrooms and has good hot water for showering and kitchen was fully stocked and clean. TV was nice for evening movies and even though we didn’t use the fire pit or grill it was nice to have. We will definitely look into staying here again. Neighbors were quiet snd there are so many trees and shrubs covering the property it felt super private. We loved it however the main queen bed was very firm for us.

Beautiful view, pretty walk to beach, comfortable beds. Kitchen could use a little updating, but I’m there to go to the beach, not cook. Will likely return. ##### Leigh M.

Upon arrival, it was more than what was imagined! My family and friends we're so ecstatic with the location & view. ##### James F. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### zehra k. Dec 10, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Pictures about property was matching the house. It was clean, and it was a nice neighborhood. Check in was easy and the view is amazing however the first day we arrived at the house some truck parked right in front of the house when we were about the watch the sunset from the lawn but could not. The guy was in the car and did not bother to move for hours. This happened on 3 days, it was the same guy. If you book this property I would suggest you park your car in front of the house so no one else does. Other than this issue, we did not encounter any problems. It has a lawn with amazing views. I wish they had 4 outdoor lounge chairs instead of 2\. Property had ocean toys washer and dryer. A/C was in a weird location at the house that it did not warm up the house at night. Overall it is a nice place to enjoy with family. ##### zehra k.

May 7, 2018 #### Nice and relaxing The property was great. Very simple and clean. You may want to think about having body wash and shampoo.

The house has everything you could possibly need for your stay. The hairdryer was missing and we texted the property manager who ran one right over. The yard is beautiful and perfect for evening cocktails while overlooking the inlet and watching the sun set over the sound of the ocean waves! ##### Verified traveler Stayed 8 nights in May 2023 ## Explore a world of travel with Expedia - [Lodging](?equalTargetTab=tab-0) - [Flights](?equalTargetTab=tab-1) - [Packages](?equalTargetTab=tab-2) - [Cars](?equalTargetTab=tab-3) - [Vacation Rentals](?equalTargetTab=tab-4) - [Things to Do](?equalTargetTab=tab-5) - [Tamarack Beach Bungalow-300 yards to the beach-Enjoy the Village of Carlsbad](https://www.expedia.com/Carlsbad-Hotels-Carlsbad-Beach-Bungalow-At-Tamarack-Beach-Walk-To-The-Village-Of-Carlsbad.h99920257.Hotel-Information) - [Cheerful and Remodeled 3-bedroom beach cottage, STEPS to beach.
