The GRISHAM HOUSE: AVALON'S ONLY WATERFRONT BEACH HOUSE!
You can throw a stone into the water from our fantastic 60 foot wrap around balcony deck with spectacular and sweeping 270 degree views overlooking the beach, the town, the harbor and the ocean! There is no finer spot to sit and people watch or relax with a glass of wine. 2 night minimum. (3 nt minimum in summer)
You want waterfront with fantastic views; the best location; a great deck and the best value? This is it - look no further! Compare us to ANY other rental (house, condo or hotel) that claims to be waterfront or have an ocean view.
This family owned vacation home offers you the BEST location in town; only steps away from the sand and swimming, shopping, restaurants and bars and all the recreational activities and sightseeing tours. We are also a very short, 2 minute level stroll from where the ferry docks.
Our property is 3 stories, AND THIS UNIT IS ON THE TOP FLOOR AND THERE IS NO ELEVATOR. This is a classic, clean and comfortable 113 year old beach house, but if you need a "room service Marriott hotel type experience"; you should look elsewhere. We do not have air conditioning, although it's not needed as much at the beach and we do have 2 sets of sliders and portable fans. We also do not have a golf cart. They can be rented by the hour 200 feet away.
On the ground floor are a couple retail clothing shops, an electric bike rental, a snorkel rental and a psychic. The middle floor (14 steps up) is our larger vacation rental (vrbo #65480) and this unit is on the top (3rd) floor 14 additional steps up from the middle unit. The stairs leading from the middle to the top floor are 36" wide, in case that is an issue for you.
During the day we are right in the middle of all Avalon has to offer; hustling and bustling with activity. And virtually everyone who takes the ferry walks right past our property, so if you are a people watcher or enjoy seeing all the activity in the harbor; you'll be in heaven. At night however, after the 'day trippers' go home and the businesses close, everything calms down around us.
This unit is like a small 1 bedroom apartment and offers a separate bedroom with queen bed, a remodeled bathroom with stall shower, a remodeled fully stocked kitchen and a small living room with small table & chairs and sofa. The living room has a TV and 2 sets of sliding glass doors that open onto the LARGE WRAPAROUND DECK WITH SPECTACULAR 210 DEGREE VIEWS. There is a gas BBQ on the side deck. BBQ and dine on the deck while you enjoy spectacular views. We also have free wireless internet access.
Our beloved home is 113 years old and sound can travel between floors. Therefore, unless you have rented both floors, we have a quiet time policy with reduced TV, music and talking levels after 10:00 PM and before 8:00 AM.
WHY STAY ANYWHERE ELSE? This property offers you the BEST location; the BEST beachfront view decks in town; and the very BEST vacation rental value for your money. We get many repeat guests year after year; you'll see why!
NO PETS and NO SMOKING. 3 Night MINIMUM in Summer (and 2 nt minimum all other times). Sorry, we do NOT have a golf cart. Minimum age limits apply and young adults renting on their own must be 24 years of age.
**BOOKING IN ADVANCE** We have many regulars that come back year after year and we always give them first opportunity to re-book for the following year. Therefore, we do NOT book more than about 10 months in advance.**
In consideration of any guests on the middle floor, you must reduce levels of TV, music and conversations to quiet levels between 10:00 PM-8:00 AM.

My wife and I have visited Catalina many times over the years, but this VRBO was by far our favorite. The location is about as close as you can get to the pier upon arrival and super close to downtown and all the outfitters Catalina has to offer. Randy, the host, was a great communicator and extremely accommodating. This VRBO would definitely be our first choice on our next visit.

This place was a dream!!!! The views from the decks are unbeatable! The kitchen was well stocked, beds and pillows were great, living room furniture very comfortable. Everything felt safe and cozy!!!! Absolutely everything you could want is within walking distance, including a killer coffee stand just across the street. We were there in July and it was very warm outside. Due to natural airflow in the house and house fans, the inside stayed a very comfortable temperature day and night. I never imagined myself as a “tour” type person but absolutely loved the ECO tour and the glass bottom boat tour. 1 min walk to one, 3 minute walk to the other. We saw like 40 bison, some closer than I wanted. There are stairs to enter the unit but they are very sturdy and have hand rails. I’m old and it was no problem at all. We loved this place and would HIGHLY recommend. The downstairs renter has been coming to the house for over 40 yrs, now w their children and grandchildren. Can’t get a better recommendation. They were wonderful people. Great communication w the owner.

It’s a great location with a nice balcony that overlooks all of the comings and goings of the island. We’ll definitely plan to go back there. It’s much better than any hotel in my opinion and the property manager is really on the ball.

We had a wonderful time! We rented both units. My husband and I stayed up top in the one bedroom. Fully equipped and clean with a beautiful view of the pier, and harbor, town and casino. Our two “kids” and their spouses and two granddaughters 11 and 14 stayed downstairs and they all had their own rooms and three bathrooms were nice. You can’t beat the deck out front. It makes the whole experience wonderful! We were lucky with the weather and it felt very safe to let the girls head off to get ice cream or play volleyball across the street. It is an old house as noted but bathrooms and kitchens are nicely updated. It’s very comfortable. We hope to do it again next year. Super easy from the ferry to get to! Do it!
