Perfect home for our needs

We enjoyed our stay. Our favorite things were the private outdoor shower and front patio. The house had all the things we needed; 2 bedrooms, closet space with hangers, a living room to chill in and a nice kitchen. The only problem was the freezer which was filled with frost - we didn't feel comfortable making ice.

Perfect spot for a family with kids

This spot is amazing! We loved eating our meals in the front yard in the shade of the palm trees. The kids loved the double bunk beds in the kids room and the grassy backyard. The outdoor shower was lovely. Courtney was very responsive and helpful. Highly recommend!

Clean, cozy spot in excellent location

The host was very welcoming and easy to work with. The house was spotless and very well-appointed. We used the kitchen quite a bit during our 8 day stay and had everything we needed. Fenced front and back yard were perfect for our fur babies. Great place and great stay!!

Great location

The property is at a very convenient location. The beds are very comfortable. Loved the large yard for our small dogs to roam. The only negative is no A/C but there are several fans available for use. Overall, very good experience.

Comfy Getaway

Quick drive to the beach, clean, comfortable, has all the kitchen, bath and other essentials needed. Appreciated the exterior shower after time at the beach. Could use a couple stronger fans for the days the ocean breezes are not as strong and a screen door for the front to allow front door to stay open without letting in flies or other insects. (Just a suggestion for the owners) Would highly recommend and would stay there again.

Perfect spot

This was exactly what I was looking for. There were 6 of us, 3 adults and 3 kids(8,11,14). We didn’t feel jammed in or not having space. The backyard was great and gave my kids somewhere to get the energy out. Outdoor shower was amazing. Being able to go straight around back and get all cleaned up after the beach is so nice! Definitely would recommend and stay again.

Nice quiet base to enjoy Encinitas and the surrounding area

Great property! We arrived and found it exactly as described. Enough supplies in the kitchen and bathroom for a family. Beds on the soft side but comfortable. Good size front and back fully-enclosed yards for your pets. Quiet side street with easy access to city center and I5. Close to Botanical Garden and hiking trails. Only minor issues were with a bent sliding screen door frame that doesn't close well and dirty windows. Nothing critical. Would stay again.
