Refresh

I stayed for 30 days and it felt like it went by in a week. It was located close to everything that you could need, most importantly the ocean and the unique town of Encinitas. By close, I mean walking distance! Doris and Eric were accessible and responsive making the logistics of the trip easy. Bravo, their dog, was a plus who was hard to leave, and I’m not a dog owner. All in all, a terrific stay for my peace of mind and well being!

Home Away From Home

We stayed here for 2 weeks. The Casita was sunny - never needed lights during the day due to so many windows, yet still felt private. Well-appointed so easy to find needed utensils for cooking, towels, laundry, etc. Host was communicative and hospitable, checking on us almost every day with recommendations of places to go, to eat, and things to do. Parking was easy. The 4-year old boxer was very friendly - we're dog lovers, but if you are not this might not be for you. The hard scape is beautiful and about a 15 minute walk to Moonlight Beach. There were a few minor issues, some of which were taken care of, some not. We would have liked (but not a deal killer) a full length mirror, a toaster oven, and a broom. There were plenty of other cleaning supplies. Overall, we have no problem recommending this place.

California the old school way

Great getaway spot in one of the best spots in North County. Eric and Bravo (Hosts) are awesome. The only bad thing about this property is the parking. Its not the hosts fault, but the neighbor. I have never met anyone so upset about a parking spot. Someone needs a hobby. Definitely will be going back to stay again.

About the host

Hosted by Doris Arterburn and son, Eric Arterburn

We bought the property when our Grandson was born in Encinitas and fell in love with the prospect of our son living in the main house and having a place for us to stay when we visit.

Why they chose this property

We loved the 1940's villa main house with the unique private 1 bedroom casita over the garage. The grounds are beautiful and the area is somewhat secluded in a residential neighborhood.
