About this property
Coastal Ventura Charmer #1
Come, make this lovingly restored 100-year-old craftsman cottage your personal retreat as you experience all our coastal community has to offer. Located on a quiet side street, this sizeable one bedroom, one bathroom has convenient on-site parking with an EV charging station, but once you unload your bags, you might find your car doesn't move for a while. Our well equipped kitchen has new, state of the art, stainless appliances, all the tools you'll need to make an amazing meal, and a sweet kitchen nook enlivened by artistic renderings of local street scenes, but if you'd rather someone else do the cooking, a less than five minute walk will put you right in the middle of pedestrian friendly downtown Main Street where you can meander the shops and choose from independent craft houses, hand tossed pizzas, succulent seafood, or tapas and beer. If you don't want to go that far, head the other direction and just steps from your front door you'll find long time local favorites Corrales Mexican or Spencer McKenzie's seafood. Once you make your way back to the cottage, sink into the cozy welcome of the soothing blues and greys of the living room, stream your favorite series or settle in to watch an old classic from several streaming services. If you're feeling competitive, grab a boardgame ... winner gets the first glass of wine. Wash away your day in the glass enclosed shower, plush towels waiting, then sink into the comfy queen bed, complete with indulgently soft linens, and drift into dreams. When the sun comes up, pick your favorite flavor from our Keurig pods, or tasty teas, and enjoy a cup on the front porch while you plot your day. So much to choose from and we've made it so easy. Grab the back-pack like beach chairs and towels, jump on the beach cruisers and make the less than five minute trek to stake out your spot in the sand, or pack a picnic and hit the trails. After your day in the sun, unwind in the private back-yard; get comfortable on the patio furniture and enjoy the warm glow of overhead lights while you barbecue and wait for the stars to come out. We look forward to welcoming you! (This unit is the left side of a duplex and has its own private rear yard).

Absolutely loved this VRBO. Beautiful, comfortable and clean. Location was phenomenal. Walked to beach, pier, downtown. Enjoyed the use of the bikes along the trail. Highly recommend and would definitely stay here again.
A charming 1920’s bungalow with newly updated kitchen that includes everything you need to feel at home. Very clean and in a great neighborhood with lots of nearby food options. Lots of privacy. Sherrie did a great job communicating. We would definitely return!
High marks for everything about this property from the great location to the ocean and downtown, to all of the comfortable, charming and useful amenities to a beautiful backyard setting to an available parking space right outside the door! We will definitely stay here again if ever in the Ventura area!
Great location. Close to the pier, beach and main street. Super cute and immaculate cottage. Perfect for a couple. Back yard private and nice for a morning cup of coffee or evening glass of wine. Will definitely book again.
We love these little bungalows. We have stayed in both and we are very happy with both of them. It’s hard to choose sometimes they are both very well equipped. We spent Thanksgiving there and we cooked a ham and I was not missing any cooking essentials. The bedding and pillows are comfy and cozy. Plenty of hot water for the shower. We brought our own bikes and were able to store them in the shed outback which was great highly highly recommend the two housing units.

We appreciate very much the nice review Leah left us. We try to make our cottages like home. We especially appreciate guests returning, as it shows we are doing a good job in making them comfortable. We look forward to having her return next year.
Great place to stay! Loved being able to walk to downtown Ventura. Very clean! We had a couple of minor issues come up and management was super responsive. Will stay here again.
I had the most beautiful time in this cottage so close to the beach and downtown. It was so lovely indoors and out. I will definitely stay at this location next time I’m in town visiting family.

Thank you for your nice review. We appreciate your mentioning the benefits of the location, close to the beach and downtown.
We had a great week at this location in Ventura, CA. We walked nearly everywhere we wanted to go. The location is perfect. It has off street parking, a big plus for us. The unit was well stocked with everything needed in the kitchen and bath. We had a seamless checking in. We were very comfortable during our week stay. We will be back again!!!

We appreciate the positive response from these great guests staying in July. They took advantage of our location to walk the town. We know our off street parking is a plus and try to stock as fully as possible the kitchen and bath. We had also upgraded the check in process which was liked. When they mention returning we feel we have done a good job as hosts.
A small but well equipped and very comfortable house.
A nice outdoor area which is a bonus.
Great location only a short walk to the many excellent bars and restaurants in Ventura.
We had a very pleasant stay in Ventura. Great location for walking to downtown shopping, restaurants, beach.
Management company was very helpful -- no problem extending our stay one day.
This is our second time renting this property and it has been wonderful both times! Great location for us to travel up to Santa Barbara or just explore Main Street. One of the few rentals we have had that had what we needed to cook a full meal!
