About this property
Charming, large historic home, newly renovated, sleeps 12 - steps to the beach!
Newly renovated in 2023, “The Old Turner Inn” is a beautiful 1926 historic Cape Cod, formerly a B&B but now rented entirely to accommodate up to 12 guests! Our bespoke property blends the old with the new and every detail has been tastefully appointed with your comfort, privacy, and safety in mind. Perfect for multi-generations (like ours) and intimate gatherings! You'll enjoy 5 ensuite bedrooms with blackout curtains, 7 bathrooms, separate dining room, fully equipped kitchen, beverage bar, interior commercial laundry room w/double washer/dryers, split-system A/C & heat in every room, 5 electric fireplaces, Smart TVs, free Wi-Fi, and outdoor foot-shower to wash off the day's sandy beach. Rest easy knowing that entry smart locks, outdoor security cameras, and indoor fire/carbon monoxide monitors are doing their job. All of this in the best location in "the flats" which are the heart of Avalon, mere steps from the beach, the Green Pleasure Pier, restaurants, grocery, shopping, Museum, the Catalina Express and the iconic Casino!

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Asheley
We fell in love with Avalon decades ago and know that you will, too! We love to "take a break" and in a little over an hour by boat (or 15 minutes by helicopter!) breathe a sigh of relief to be back on Catalina Island. The feeling is very much like being transported to a little gem of a European harbor but without the long plane ride!
Why they chose this property
Location is everything! Our property is in the heart of Avalon on one of the most historic streets first known as "Canvas Cottage City" in the late 1800s. Within 2 blocks, you can walk to the beach, Von's grocery store, miniature golf course, island tour buses, a dozen restaurants, golf cart rentals, fishing off of the Green Pleasure Pier, parasailing, and shopping. Walking distance to the beautiful gem of a museum and the famed landmark known as the "Casino" is only 15 minutes where you will experience one of the most gorgeous examples of architecture in the Art Deco period. Daily walk-up tours are available with movies being shown in the theater on weekends. Concerts and events in the upper ballroom happen year-round. Walk a little past the Casino to Descanso beach to enjoy outdoor dining, ziplining, or rent a cabana for the day. From our house you can head west and play a round of golf, a game of tennis or pickle ball at the Country Club, and catch the hiking trails at the Wrigley Memorial ti experience the island's unique and diverse wildlife and abundant nature. Or, you can do nothing at all but listen to the wind through the majestic, old eucalyptus trees across the street and read a book to rejuvenate your soul.
What makes this property unique
Very few properties in Avalon exist to accommodate a family group of 12 - we know, because we are a large family, too! Undergoing a complete restoration in 2023, The Old Turner Inn was made new in all the right ways: new surfaces, furnishings, appliances, modern a/c systems, furniture and decor where it matters while keeping the beautiful antique elements that have made it unique for nearly 100 years.
