Great location, had everything we needed

The house was just as described. Great locations with just minutes to the ferry and Vons by foot, even an easy walk for a 7 year old. The house had all of the basics we needed and was quiet and safe. Would definitely recommend!

Winter delight

So well decorated, furnished and clean! A perfect cottage for a couple or a small family. The location is very convenient to the center of Avalon. The windows all have nice curtains, which we mostly kept closed because it’s not very private at front or back, and side view is not lovely. (Can’t be helped given the location.) Rental company is also very good.

20th Anniversary

Home location is centrally located. easy to get to the market, restaurants and shops. Beds were very comfortable and the house well appointed. Use the toaster oven not the toaster (it burns even at the lowest setting). TV flippers don't work very well but there is so much to see and do the digital wasn't missed. Fun time. Would come back to this house again.

Awesome house near the beach

Didn't take long to walk from the house to the main strip of shopping and food. Beach was the same distance, maybe a 5 minute walk to Vons. Great location, convenient as heck, and close enough we could walk to the house from the ferry.

A Cute Bungalow Close To It All

We spent Labor Day weekend at this house in Avalon. We are a family of 5, and the stay was very comfortable. My kids all slept well on the bunk bed and the couch (my son’s choice over the sleeper sofa). The location is perfect. Only steps to the center of Avalon. Would gladly stay here again.

Close to the center of activity but far enough away to not be noisy. Lovely clean house. Great communication with the management team who got us in earlier that expected to the house.

Adorable Catalina cottage

This was a perfect wknd getaway cottage . Close to town (just a block from the water) walking distance to everything -no need for a cart unless you wanted to go up the hill to airport or Hamilton cove . Cottage had all the amenities needed. Has a small ice cooler & beach chairs and floats w pump for a beach day . Has ac but we just used the box fans /ceiling fans and the temperature was great w the windows open . House manager never responded but it wasn’t a dire need, but would have been nice to get a response. The only complaint was ant issues but a can of raid left under the kitchen sink solved that . Would totally rent again for a visit to the island . Suggest having a brush hanging outside by door to brush sand off feet.

Did not feel safe/very close loud neighbors

next door neighbor is just 4 over flowing garbage cans away ie 4 feet. I am not sure how many people live next door maybe 20 with the amount of noise and foot traffic. The photos of this place are misleading. would not stay her again or recommend it.

Great Getaway Spot

We had a wonderful time at this beach bungalow. I took my 20+-year-old daughters and daughter-in-law for a girls' weekend. The house was as it appears in the listing. The house is clean and has a lot of natural light which is nice, and the living room was comfortable for the 4 of us. The king-size bed was VERY comfortable. The bathroom is spacious--even for four women! The kitchen has everything you need. However, the coffee pot could really use an update/upgrade! The lid falls off and there are better, inexpensive coffee makers out there! The beach amenities could be in better shape/ quantity. I ended up buying and leaving a beach blanket for future guests, as there are no beach towels or blankets in the house. The location of the house is great--close to EVERYTHING. Keep in mind, though, that being in the center of everything also means it can get loud on the weekends. Other than those minor issues, this cozy little house is a great place to stay.
