Why the Owner Chose Laguna Beach
The house is perfect as a vacation rental as it is walking distance to many places. Crescent Bay beach is a great body surfing spot. Shaw's cove is a favorite place for diving. I like restaurants and art galleries being close by. A stones throw away is a coffee pastry shop. One can walk to Heisler Park. A big grocery store is a few blocks away. More places to eat like Pizza! I also like the John Wayne Airport being close by. One can take Newport Coast to the house and beat all the downtown traffic.
The Unique Benefits at this Cottage
We love the idea that guests can come and spend time here and enjoy the surround sound, the lighting, the ambiance of the home. The house has beautiful fixtures and all new modern appliances, the colors are lite and calming. The furniture in the living area is a dark chocolate brown which creates a nice contrast. The 10 foot granite bar sets the mood to have a good time! The patio is enclosed which creates privacy. The house has triple paned windows, sound board in the walls to prevent outside sounds from entering. The lighting is beautiful within the home.
Heisler is the most popular beach in the city of Laguna Beach because it's kid safe and lots of local families hang out there, frolicking in the tide pools and the safe waves that don' t get too tall.

Hi, I am Marija and your emails come directly to me! I enjoy providing nice homes for folks to stay in. I believe people should travel as much as possible. Good for the spirit! The greatest thing in life is to have hope. I travel between Arizona, Laguna Beach, Encinitas, Oceanside and Carlsbad, CA. I love the beach and the ocean especially when it is hot in AZ! I am a Booking Agent who specializes in Ocean close properties, primarily along the Southern California Coast and also the owner of this property. If I cannot accommodate you here at our beach house, I would love to hear from you anyway. There are other properties here in Laguna Beach to choose from along with Encinitas, Kauai or Hawaii! Many are here on VRBO, so send me an email to find out what is available for your next vacation!

Loved our stay at the Maison Blanc cottage! Great location in walking distance of shops/restaurants/beach - quiet, cozy and perfectly equipped for everything one would need for a stay in beautiful Laguna Beach. Enjoyed hiking at El Morro Canyon, Crystal Cove State Park and the Laguna Coast Wilderness areas. Dining at Starfish, Beach House and Mozambique were all excellent. Worst part is we had to leave!
Recommended for:Sightseeing, families with young children, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.

My husband and I stayed at this lovely house located in N.Laguna Beach on PCH in February. The ownner was most helpful with any concerns and questions. The house was well maintaied and equipped. We walked daily along the beach. We enjoyed Thai Brothers, The Mandarin (across the street), Hapi Sushi, and La Sirena Restaurants.Captain Dave's Whale Watch in Dana Point was lots of fun.

We stayed at Maison Blanc from January 22 to February 5th 2010. We found your rental home as comfortable as our own home. The living /Dining space and kitchen are very relaxing and efficient. I like your gas stove better than my own! Loved all the books such an interesting collection, some of which I will certainly now have to purchase for my own. .The king bed was quite comfortable. I like to read before sleep and wished that there were bedside lamps so I didn't have to get out of the bed to shut off the lights. Walking along the waterfront through Heisler Park to town was a wonderful experience everyday,as well as the public beach access so the location of Maison Blanc was perfect for that.We really enjoyed our stay.

We spent 5 days in your beautiful house and enjoyed it immensely. We were in town for my son's wedding and 3 couples stayed very comfortably. We also hostted 2 evening gatherings for some of the out of town guests staying at local motels. The kitchen and living room in the main house were a very fine gathering place. Should we be in the area again we would consider staying at you home again. Thanks again for a memorable experience.

We just returned home to New York and I wanted to drop you a line about how lovely your house was to stay in.It was so very comfortable and easy to relax in. We weren’t there too much of the time but when we were, we were able to unwind. The kids liked having their own space, as did Jed & I.Your decorating is magnificent! I came home with ideas on colors, curtains, lighting, etc. It really inspired me to make some changes to our house in Scarsdale . By the way, can you tell me the make of the bed in the MBR and the curtains as well? I also fell in love with the dishes with the roosters on them. I’d love to buy them!

I hosted 6 friends from around the country at this charming house and it was perfect for us. The living room and kitchen were ideal gathering places. The cottage was comfortable for 6, but more than that could feel crowded. There were plenty of bathrooms. Its an easy walk to Crescent Bay where we went to the beach and watched the sunset each evening. The television, sterio, etc were frustrating to figure out, but didn't really need them. We will definitely consider coming back to this special place!

The house is spectacular. We had such a great time. Super cozy with a long bar to help get us in the mood. Tremendous lighting and stereo system. My husband and I had a blast. The other building was great to put the kids in. I liked the gated patio. We had safety and privacy.

We had a great time in this wonderful home. The house is so charming. Ever walked into a home and had the greaest feeling. This home is very special. Perfect place to bring my future wife. She was so happy. The design in fabulous. The lighting is spectacular along with the surround sound. The granite bar made us really want to party it up. The only thing bad about the place is we did not want to leave.
