Nice place, walking distance to all great food/shops in Lantern district

Enjoyed the stay and was able to walk to most things we wanted to do which is really important to my family and I. We loved the large kitchen with island and fenced in front yard. Would love to stay again.

Wonderful home for a family

I had my mother stay with me, my wife and our two children at this wonderful home in Dana Point for the Christmas holidays. The home has everything one could need and every detail was taken care of by the owner, including making us feel at home over Christmas. The extremely kind owner also went out of her way to help us with requests that had nothing to do with our stay at the property. I could not have been happier with my choice of this home.

Absolutely perfect!

A very relaxing stay in the cute Lantern district of Dana Point. A quick walk will get you to the Dana Point Harbor full of restaurants and shops. The Lantern District is being revitalized and has amazing restaurants only couple of blocks away! This home is in the perfect location for your visit to Dana Point. Linda is very helpful and communicates swiftly. The house is beautiful, and very much lives up to the photos. Clean comfy beds, open floor plan with plenty of room to spread out! The outdoor space is spacious charming, lots of room for everyone! The garage is great as parking can be a bit limited in this area. We will definitely be back to stay… Great house and location! Book it!
