A Perfect Spot

This is the coziest cottage for a getaway to Laguna Beach. Centrally located and walk to all the main attractions. Wendy is the best owner I’ve experienced with many rentals and so informative about the local happenings with art, music and fun. Thanks for a great month in Laguna and looking forward to another stay in the future.

Just what I needed

Having lived in the area nearly 20 years ago, returning to Laguna and staying at Wendy’s cottage was the perfect choice. The location was incredibly convenient, allowing me to reconnect with friends easily. Wendy was a gracious host, always kind and thoughtful, sharing local happenings and making my stay even more enjoyable. I’m truly grateful for her hospitality and the comfort of her place.

Awesome little house!

This little house is awesome! It’s a quiet little oasis in a great neighborhood. Surprising quiet considering how super close it is to everything— a couple minutes walk to groceries, coffee, restaurants, the beach with its amazing views, and a nice hike up into the hills behind town. Wendy is very helpful in giving local advice.

Great Location - Wendy is the best

I was on a solo trip to refresh. Laguna is my favorite spot. I parked and only drove once to find warm cloths. I was able to walk everywhere I wanted to go. Wendy went above and beyond to make sure I had a great stay. The cottage is adorable, and it was super clean and comfortable, it had everything I needed.

Idyllic classic Laguna experience

The kindest hostess. The short walk to the shore, Laguna Art Museum and downtown. The private patio. The cute kitchen! This is my happiest place and favorite VRBO stay (I’m a return visitor.) Count yourself lucky if you get to stay here. This attached cottage affords a quiet neighborhood experience with fast access to downtown. You will love all the flowers and the wonderful hostess, Wendy. Can’t wait to return.
