Year Purchased: 2006

Why the Owner Chose Ocean Beach

Ocean Beach has a special significance for us because our first date was at the famous "Hodad's" in Ocean Beach. We now live nearby and our kids love going to OB to play in the sand, come for the "OB Street Fair" each Wednesday, or take a walk in the stroller down Newport Ave. to window shop. We find it to be one of the quieter beach areas (less traffic and fewer tourists than Mission Beach) and we love that "small-beach-feel".

The Unique Benefits at this House

We love the location. With two small children, having to drive someplace or walk far would be tough. But when we stay at our cottage, we can walk to the beach, to shopping, to dinner, or even the grocery store. We also love the beds -- they are so comfortable that we bought the same ones for our home that we live in! We also enjoy the front yard with Dino, our golden retriever puppy, who loves to play "fetch".

 

Owner's Map of Ocean Beach

Hi! I'm Tobi (from Los Angeles) and my husband is Andy (from Oklahoma). We met once we were both living in San Diego and love it here! The cottages are our family's investment for our 2-year old son Micah and our 1-year old son Jake. We have made many upgrades since we bought them. We love to see our guests return again and again, and have had the pleasure of accommodating our guests for such special occasions as graduations, weddings, and births.

    • We loved it!! There were six of us in our party and the owners were thoughtful enough to bring us extra beach chairs, towels, and even snacks so we had enough for all six!

    • We had a lovely stay in the little yellow cottage by the beach at the end of July. The beds were very comfortable, but the best thing was being just a block from the beach and so close to Sea World. We had a great time. Thank you!

    • We were pleasantly surprised! The price is reasonable, which led us to be skeptical. We arrived and the place was hot as the a/c hadn't been turned on yet and it was late in the afternoon. We turned the a/c on and went to dinner, by the time we got back it was cool. It was our first trip to San Diego and we were not accustomed to the weather there. In San Diego you get at least 2 completely different types of weather: coastal and inland. Inland is hot in July, 20 degrees hotter then coastal weather. This place was loacated in the coolest neighborhood around, Ocean Beach, which is of course in the coastal weather. The weather is amazing, we were there a week and never any rain, always sunny and high of 78 or 77 everyday with a nice cool breeze. Perfect for swiming, golf, etc. The cottage itself was small, but it had everything advertised plus many extra that provided a very nice touch! It had two legitimate bedrooms and two queen beds that were VERY comfortable. There was some sort of pillowtop mattress on there, it was nice! Even the pull out futon in living room which we utilized as a bed as well was way beyond your typical uncomfortable futon. It was actually a extra long bed when it was converted and it had an extra section that could be attached to be a perma footrest when set in a sitting position: VERY nice! They even put out snacks in a basket on the table in living room, and some drinks in the refrigerator. There were plastic plates, bowls, cups, silverware, dishes, beach toys, beach towels, regular towels, etc, a lot of unexpected extras! There is of course a very nice full kitches, and to top it off a high end washer dryer set on top of each other. We will prolly be coming back bnext year, this place was PERFECT.

    • We came down with our 6-week old baby to have some alone time and bonding time and it was wonderful! The owners were very attentive to our new-baby needs and the place was very cozy and clean. Thanks for all the "freebie" snacks and drinks, it was very refreshing to have when we got there after our 3 hour drive with the baby. We will be back next year for our daughter's 1-year birthday!

    • Great place; we were lucky to have good neighbors; bring your bikes, everything is very close. It is small but well layed out. My only 'complaint' is the beds were too soft - everything else was perfect!!

    • The cottage was perfect. Exactly as we pictured it to be . Only a couple of suggestions would be to have a few more kid friendly cups, we only found glass or coffee mugs which are not the best for a 3 and 4 yr old, and maybe mention about the dogs if they are still there . We got a bit nervous about that with two small children. Tobi was awesome and answered any questions we had , her husband even came over our frist night to help get the internet working on my computer ... thanks for that you guys are awesome. We are already looking into our trip for next year at the same place .

      Homeowner Response:
      Thank you for your feedback! We now have kid-friendly plastic cups in addition to the glasses and coffee mugs!

    • We rented this property for a week over Memorial Day. We had a great time in Ocean Beach and surrounding towns. The cottage had everything we needed and was very comfortable. We were thrilled that the owners accepted large dogs and ours had a blast. The street was a bit busy with foot traffic (walkers, bikes, skateboarders, rollerbladers) and they do seem to be passing by at late hours throughout the night. The first night was a little rough, as one of our dogs is a guard dog and wasn't used to the noises, but she got used to it. The town, beach and weather was wonderful. Enjoyed some delicious food at Shades restaurant in town. This cottage was so close to everything, wonderful location. The parking space is a must have in this town! We would definitely stay here again.
