We had the perfect stay for our daughter's wedding weekend. The house accommodated 4 adults and 2 toddlers perfectly (so thankful for the amenities that were in the house from toys to a porta-crib/stroller). Home was clean, stocked with everything we needed, roomy and has the perfect deck with view of ocean.AND, the host, Diane, was awesome. She was responsive, available and accommodating. We recommend this home!

My family (54,53,27,25,and 22) and I recently stayed at this AMAZING home for a long weekend. The views were to die for. We watched a surfing competition from the deck AND watched dolphins playing in the waves on multiple days. The home is beautiful, quiet and has everything you could possibly need. The bedrooms and baths were comfortable and well stocked. You are steps from the beach and a short walk to the harbor. EVERYTHING is close by. We had two cars, but honestly walked most places. The OWNER is the kindest person. She checked in on us as we traveled and made sure we got in ok. Three of our favorite restaurants were Lighthouse Oyster Bar & Grill, Stratford at the Harbor and Toasted! But the home has everything you need to eat in if you so choose. While we didn't have great luck Whale Watching, seeing the Dolphins from the deck made up for it. Oh and the snacks on the counter were a blessing after a long travel day! I highly recommend and hope I get to go back soon!!

Our stay at this beautiful vacation home was amazing! Diane was extremely helpful and informative prior to even arriving at the house. Communication was very quick and efficient. The home is stocked with everything you would need both in the house and at the beach. The rooms were spacious and very well maintained. The view of the beach from the deck is absolutely beautiful! Everything in the house is well thought out, both design and function. All of the TVs, furniture, bedrooms, and restrooms were in great condition. We would definitely recommend this location if you're looking for the perfect location, hosts, and house to stay in Oceanside!

The host was amazing with detailed instructions on arrival, home operations, and departure. The extras they provided upon arrival and detailed suggestions on local businesses were appreciated. They were responsive when needed but did not interrupt our vacation.The home was perfect and as described. The living room and deck were our favorite places to enjoy the spectacular views. The large window and glass deck railings allow great visibility. Kitchen is well stocked with cooking supplies and the beach equipment and towels were very helpful.Location is great with a nice flat, sandy beach an easy walk out the back gate. It's in a quiet, residential area with friendly neighbors, but still walking (or biking) distance to both the harbor and downtown/pier area. With traffic, downtown SD is a 45 minute drive, but we mostly stayed on the northern beaches (La Jolla, Del Mar, Carlsbad) the few times we left Oceanside.

House sleeps 10 very comfortably. The back patio views are some of the best in Oceanside! The house has everything you need to cook, entertain, and enjoy your vacation. 2 garage spaces really helps and the garage is stocked with everything you need for the beach. Everyone loved the beach cruisers and wagon to help haul things to the sand. 10 out 10 experience at this property! We will be back!

This was our second year staying at this home, and it was just as perfect as the first. It’s an ideal spot for families—the location can’t be beat, the air-conditioning works beautifully, and the owners are both responsive and kind.The kitchen is very well stocked, which made cooking easy, and the extras provided really made a difference: boogie boards, a grill, plenty of kitchen tools, plus an abundance of blankets, pillows, and towels. Everything was thoughtfully provided to make our stay comfortable.We’ll definitely be back again—this house truly feels like a home away from home.

A Great Place to Stay!
Our family of nine, ages 4-74, stayed in this lovely 2 story home for a week. We were thankful for the off street parking for 3 large vehicles. We cooked most of our meals in the well stocked, updated kitchen. The beds were comfy and the bathrooms were very clean. We spent hours on the large deck with a view. Also, the cool ocean breezes kept us comfortable. We rarely used the air conditioning.

I can not say enough great things about the hosts Diane and Mike. Excellent communication and very attentive before and during our stay. This property is in a great location. So close to everything you would want to do or need for a visit. We were there for 6 weeks and appreciated all the little things that were available to us at the house. Great home for families with kiddos and also for adults. The view from the deck was the best. We spent so much time just watching and listening to the ocean. Great outdoor space for large family dinners. This home gave our entire family the space to create memories that will last a lifetime.
