This was an excellent location, with great shops and parks to walk to. The house was dog friendly and the gated yard was a plus!

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the location, nearby shops and parks, and that the gated yard was perfect for your pup. We hope to welcome you back for another great stay soon!
The place was bright and neat. Had a patio in the back with a barbecue which we used every night. Front area was great for the dog and used the fire pit every night, enjoyed it so much i am going to get rid of my wood one and get a gas one.

Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We’re so glad to hear you enjoyed the home, especially the patio, barbecue, and fire pit. It’s great to know the space worked well for your dog too — and we love hearing that the gas fire pit has inspired you to get one of your own! We’d be delighted to welcome you back again soon.

We had a great time! The house was clean, well appointed, had everything we needed! Kind friendly with board games and a fun little outdoor area. They provide beach chairs and boogie boards. Plenty of space in the house and a cute shared outdoor area.

Nice but
Clean and comfortable. Quality linens and kitchen utensils.Old wall heater, that doesn't heat rooms well. Wouldn't stay in summer as there is no A/C. If you had windows open, the noise from freeway/train would be unbearable.
Cute, clean, and cozy, it is close to what you want in Carlsbad. You don’t hear the nearby freeway. Front and side yards are lovely and useful. Strong internet. Parking is a plus. Nice location. But we were disappointed there wasn’t Netflix, Prime, etc. (must use your own account), and no simple pantry or laundry items (spices, oil, detergent, etc.). It seems those things are standard in other rentals and would have been nice to have. There was the mild smell of a water leak/mildew that we informed the manager about. Small negatives. We definitely recommend and would return to this property. You will enjoy your stay here.
Cute place. Perfect location. Rode bikes to the village with ease. Sir Olliecus III loved running around the courtyard talking to the neighbor puppy friends. We look forward to visiting again soon!!
