Great Craftman Home
This home was perfect for our needs during a family trip to Camp Pendleton for a wedding. Less than 4 miles to the wedding venue on the base. Plenty of room for 6 adults and 4 children. The weather was cool and rainy, but house was cozy and we were still able to get in a few trips to the beach thanks to the wonderful large wagon to carry a small child and the beach gear. House had a lovely covered porch for outdoor visiting. Thanks for a nice stay in Oceanside. I would definitely recommend this rental.
Perfect family getaway
Thank you for such a wonderful stay. We loved our time at the beach and the house was beautiful. We ran out of hot water but the property manager came out right away and replaced the water heater. Perfect family vacation.
It is a nice quaint house. The house did need, though, some much needed repair and yard cleaner.
We enjoyed the quaint feeling of the house. We had 11 adults there in the house and all but one had a bed. He slept up on the upper deck lounger and enjoyed it. There were plenty of beach towels and beach "toys" which was great. Didn't get to go to the beach much as the weather was cold and overcast the whole time. We were there May 31-June 4, 2017. But we still went one day, which was fun anyway. We did daily walks to DQ for ice cream runs--fun. Walked to get foot massages and massages just down the street and a few blocks away. Was disappointed that it was not a beach house, because it was not close to the beach, really. We appreciated Lauren for her help with any problems, which was minor. Our family had a great time being there in the house and Oceanside. The purpose of gathering there in California was to celebrate my husbands 70th birthday with our 8 children and their spouses. Not all children and spouses could make it, but most did and it was a great time. A very comfortable feeling in the house. Just suggest the owner do some fixing up of the door screens and master bathroom rain shower head and make sure the grounds and all patios & front porch be cleaner. Anyone would enjoy staying here, though.
Property exactly as advertised.
Thank you for the wonderful beach house. Excellent location. Communication with owner is prompt. House is perfect for family's. Local tap house is 100 yards away and is a 10!
A great way to experience Oceanside
Pros:
Ample room for our family vacation with 8 adults and 3 small children.
The rooftop patio is a unique, charming space.
The noise from the trains was bearable since the property is 2 or 3 blocks away from the tracks.
Within walking distance of many small local businesses, including a fun cafe called Banana Dang.
Cons (only minor issues):
The instructions for staying at the property were not concisely organized, and it was a laborious to sift through.
A broken door knob, spice rack, and finicky WiFi access point made our stay slightly less convenient, but these didn't greatly affect our stay.
Beautiful Craftsman in Oceanside
This beautiful craftsman in Oceanside was fully equipped with everything we needed. There was plenty of room for 3 couples. We enjoyed having lots of space in the living room and dining room which were comfortable, beautifully decorated, relaxing and comfortable. This home had everything we needed and a short walk to our favourite Oceanside restaurant and the night market. The neighbourhood is beautiful and quiet at night. The rooftop deck is an absolute bonus!
Thank you for everything!
