About the host

Hosted by Steven McDowell

Host profile image
Del Mar resident since 2001. Primary Residence's on Forest Way in Del Mar. Semi retired giving me time to still help on the Del Mar Little League Board and where needed elsewhere. Bought our beach place to have somewhere to share with family and friends and a place for our kids to stay in the future when they have their own family.

Steven McDowell

Why they chose this property

Purchased from a family that had owned the place since 1963. Loved the location, have friends with families that live close. Wanted a place to share. This works

What makes this property unique

At the place are towels, beach toys for running out to the surf and more stuff for young children to keep them occupied while you relax or cook. Many items we switch out with our own gear, if you need something just let us know.
