This has to be one of the best houses that I’ve stayed in during a vacation! It was perfect for our large family and met all of our needs. It was close to the beach, but not close enough where it was loud and busy right outside the doors. I loved that it was walking distance to so many great restaurants and shops. I am definitely staying here again!

Wonderful Family Vacation Property

This home is just as represented, it comfortably sleeps 12, the kitchen is wonderfully stocked, street parking was not a problem. We gathered four families and grandchildren for LEGOLAND, beach, and family time. The upstairs patio table was great for dining, we hope to return next year.

Good location, open floor plan, upgraded interior, spacious bedrooms and bathrooms. loaded kitchen, multiple patios and deck to enjoy the oceanside weather. Our only issue was couple of ceiling fans was not operative withe remote, but as the ac kicked in, we didn’t feel the need and it was one of hot days. Host was responsive. We felt like staying longer and would surely come back.

Fun time in Oceanside home

We really enjoyed our stay at Kathryn's house. The space is very comfortable for 6 adults and the kitchen was nicely equipped. We appreciated having room in the garage for two cars! The location is great as it is a short walk to the train station and beach area. Kathryn is a great host and was very responsive to our questions. We definitely recommend this home to fellow vacationers.

Words won’t do this justice...

My siblings and I were looking for a home to celebrate our parents 50th wedding anniversary. Having family in Oceanside we needed to find a large enough place to handle 11+ people. It needed to be both child and senior friendly, warm, spacious and well equipped. It had to be able to have a formal dinner as well as a mellow, sun decked BBQ. We saw this historic home and all it offered and knew it was the one. You will need little more than your suitcase of clothes. It’s got everything and more. It’s age brings nuance and character...we loved it. Nothing was a big deal; door handles turning an off way for example. We had a small issue with the TV and Luanne was quick to take the call and help us through it. We will be back! It’s location to the center of town was perfect but it’s being tucked into a quiet residential community made it feel so very homey. Book this if you want to feel like you just came home...

Charming Bungalow just 4 blocks from the beach

Absolutely loved this house. It is an older house with three bedrooms in the back of the house and one bedroom in the front of the house. I really loved that the master bedroom had a futon bed that allowed my sister to keep her son with her as he was not ready to share a room with his cousins. I also appreciate that there was a queen bed in the room with the bunk bed (that gave my husband and I an option to stay in the same room as my children if we felt it was needed). All the rooms felt spacious and there was plenty of natural light in the house. We stayed here for a Christmas family Vacation and enjoyed being based in this little town north of San Diego. Driving down to the San Diego Zoo and Sea World was easy and the commute was not bad at all. It was also the same distance to get to the SD Safari Park and only 10 minutes to get to LegoLand. The neighborhood was beautiful to walk around, and we loved hanging out on the deck/meditation garden above the garage. Kathryn was a great host, as she was super responsive to our requests when we needed something, even on Christmas Day. This was one of the most wonderful, memorable Christmas that I have had with my family probably in over 15 years and I was so glad that we had this house to be based out of for our trip.

Wonderful family weekend!

The beach retreat, a 1920s craftsman, is completely renovated and updated with modern amenities. Very quiet neighborhood, just a walk away from the beach and tranquil once inside. The home is very comfortable, with an understated elegance, especially the kitchens and bathrooms. Well stocked kitchen for serious cooks and patios and decks to enjoy the outdoors and the beautiful ocean breezes. Our family had a wonderful time at the beach, at the home and in and around Oceanside. Would come back again.

Disliked: Communication

Unprofessional communication

The location was great, house was overall clean and nice. A couple of concerns were; Dusty furniture, dirty floors in some of the rooms, front room fan and light would turn on by itself, the gate to take the trash bin out was locked so we had to lift it over the fence, had to buy trash bags for the house as they only supplied 2, the grill was extremely greasy, and burners are low and difficult to cook on. The communication from either the property manager or owner (not sure who we were talking to) from the 702 phone number was EXTREMELY unprofessional and rude. We received a text message long after we had left accusing us of still being at the property followed by unprofessional choice of words and not a way you would speak to a customer. (They could have simply asked if we were at the property still and had a decent conversation) We had an additional charge on our card without an explanation until I reached out to ask why. The reason and information that was given to us was false and wish we would have taken pictures before we left. When I reached out regarding the extra charge, the reply was again unprofessional, immature and rude through "text" and e-mail. (They could have explained in a professional way what the additional charges are for and we would have no problem paying) I have never had an issue renting vacation rentals until now with how we were treated. Really quite unfortunate. Would recommend the home overall, but HIGHLY advise you to take plenty of pictures upon departing so false information cannot be made up along with unprofessional treatment.

Oceanside Beach House Rental

This was our second time staying in this charming rental house. We love this comfortable house and the great area where it is located. The house has large living and dining areas where we had plenty of room to visit, eat and play games with our grown children and their families. The bedrooms are comfortable with lots of sleeping space. There is nice barbecue to use on the patio and an upper patio deck that is our favorite place to hang out in the evenings. It is a short walk from the house to a great beach and there are lots of little stores and small restaurants nearby where you can shop or get a bite to eat. We appreciate the owners who are quick to respond if needed and are very helpful. This rental house will continue to be on the top of our list of places to go for our family vacation!
