Beach cottage

The cottage had a very nice location close to beach, shops, and restaurants. It offers privacy in a fairly quiet neighborhood. The kitchen is well stocked with utensils and appliances. There were 2 good size beds and a daybed. Dog friendly house and gardens. We enjoyed our stay!

Comfortable cottage experience for two + pet

We found the Cottage just as advertised. Met our expectations in all regards. Owner/neighbor seen one time in passing-very unobtrusive. We definitely would repeat. Especially enjoyed the quaint atmosphere of Encinitas, street festival, farmer's market, and the frozen yogurt shop- we walked every where. We visited nearby botanical gardens, numerous beach side parks, we aquarium, and a visit to Poway CA where we rode an old steam train. Just sitting out on the front lawn of an evening was so relaxing. If you are looking for a short get a way or an extended stay, you will not be disappointed.

Amazing location

Everything overall was great. If i had to say something negative about my whole experience it would be that our last night staying here we were without power for 8+ hours due to construction. Construction workers stated this was told to all owners, they had us move our car in the middle of the night. Driving back 12+ hrs home made this very hard on us.The owner gave us an extra hour to check out. Other than that the house was very clean and a BIG PLUS is the Playstation 2 with all the classic games. I would definitely stay here again.

Comfortable, private and charming

We came to Encinitas from Arizona to visit family and enjoy a few days at the beach. This was the perfect location. It was a short walk to the beach and it had all of the emenities we needed to host a quaint dinner for our loved ones. Our stay felt like home away from home.

Great spot, great house with a great host

We rented the house for a number of our wedding guests who were flying in from overseas for our wedding. Couldn't have asked for a better place - clean, awesome location (right next to "down town" Encinitas and walkable to Moonlight Beach. Lance was very accommodating and even even arranged for an extended stay last minute with no hassles. Would highly recommend.

Great location - fun beach house with view

Great location, walking distance to town and beach. No need for a car if you are looking for a relaxing getaway in Encinitas. Fun firepit in the front yard. Could use a bar stool set in the front for 24/7 ocean views but the 2 lifeguard chairs are a cool touch and great way to catch a beautiful sunset. Great layout, basic kitchen, nice wraparound deck although the trees need some trimming to really catch a good ocean view from there. With a little TLC this place would be a 5 star but I found it to be totally comfortable and a great place to hang out. Lance is super cool and easy to work with. I would definitely return !

Thanks for the response and I'm glad you had a great stay. I hope to have you back someday. I'll get those trees trimmed and start looking for a set of bar stools as you recommended (great idea)!!!

Encinitas gem!

We had a wonderful stay at this Encinitas cottage last week! We arrived on a Wednesday, which was fortuitous, as we were able to walk one block(!) to the lovely Encinitas Station Farmers Market (http://www.farmersmarketencinitas.com/) to stock up on gorgeous California produce for our stay. For everything else, we walked just a bit further to the local Whole Foods and any number of lovely restaurants and breweries within easy walking distance. The house was comfortable, quiet, and well-stocked with beach essentials (toys, umbrellas, beach towels), which was great for our visits to the gorgeous, family-friendly Moonlight State Beach (http://www.parks.ca.gov/?page_id=659). The host was very helpful, and we had a great stay. Thank you!

Charming Beach Cottage

We are a local family and stay down at the beach from time to time so we already knew this is a prime location for everything. Lance has done a great job making this beach cottage really cozy with up to date decor. The kitchen had everything we needed even though there are so many great restaurants within walking distance we had some great meals at the house. The farmer's market in 2 houses down and Whole Foods is so close. I loved walking to Whole Foods to grab a few things instead of driving to the grocery store. There are wonderful places to walk and if you have kids the Encinitas Library is just down the street with an ocean view and outdoor tables. There are many parks with playgrounds within walking distance as well if you have little ones. Lance is continuing to do improvements to this new on VRBO beach cottage and we will definitely stay there again!

Super stay for family of four in lovely Encinitas

Approaching 40 and have tried doing at least three nice vacations per year the last decade or more. The week at Lance's place is probably my all time favorite. Not a surfer prior to coming, but since Lance had various beginner boards the whole family tried out some things every day and had a blast. The location is very convenient, walking to Whole Foods, the nice eateries and the beach. Nice to be in the slope with ocean view, or at least to get some overview of the surroundings. Loved the farmer's market which was Wednesdays I believe, think I went four times that day. Given the location in Southern Cali, and that the house is more than adequate for a family of four, the price/quality ratio is very hard to beat. Lance is a great guy to do business with and he really wants you to have a great time, and will help you out in the perfect no-problem-can't-be-fixed - attitude of the area.
