We really enjoyed our stay at this property. It is very comfortable, with a lot of livable space both indoors and out. It is well-equipped with many useful amenities: kitchen supplies and appliances, washer and dryer, TV in the living room and bedrooms, air conditioning and an excellent shower. The fencing and shrubs all around plus the ability to park a vehicle inside the back gate create a real sense of privacy. This is also an excellent property if you are travelling with a dog. Since it is completely fenced our dog could safely hang out in the large yard any time, which is a big plus.It is a short trip to the heart of Oceanside which has plenty of restaurants and a pathway along the waterfront. We also recommend Tierra Mia Coffee, which is walking distance from the property and has fantastic coffee.

Comfortable & Convenient Bungalow

The place was perfectly located near beach and restaurants and short distance to Legoland and other destinations like Carlsbad and San Diego Zoo. The place had everything we needed to make meals and enjoy coffee or drinks on outside patio. Great place to stay for a family vacation.

The house was very nice, the shower was a great feature in the bathroom. I really appreciated the safety provided by thoroughly a fenced and gated backyard. It made traveling with our 3 pups much less stressful.

We are glad to hear you had a great stay and had so many positive things to share privately, although we're disappointed with the condition you left the property after your stay. We hope to earn 5-stars next time! <3

This is a single family 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom home on a private, secured lot (enclosed with fencing and shrubs). A remote controlled back gate provides access to the property and parking through the alley. A bit thanks to your son for his service, and Thanks to you, Aaron, for being absolutely wonderful guests, and we look forward to hosting you again! :)
