About this property

Carlsbad Boulevard Adjacent to State Beach

Enjoy the sunsets and unobstructed ocean views in this 1923 California style beach house. The house is located on Carlsbad Boulevard (Coast Highway 101) and has been refurbished by family members who have lived here since 1953. Now it is used as our vacation home available to you when vacant. Main rooms all look onto the Pacific Ocean, where surfers, boaters, dolphin and whales can be seen.
A walkway above the bluff and stairs to the walkway and State Beach below reveal miles of white sandy beach for sunbathing, swimming, bodyboarding, or surfing. Some beach equipment is provided, but a surf rental shop is 3 blocks to the north. Two of the photos here attempt to show the proximity of the house to the beach.

Carlsbad's old village ambiance, Lego-Land, Flower Fields, Outlet stores and nearby malls, Oceanside Harbor with its boat trips, fishing from the pier, golfing at local courses, the Museum of Making Music, are just a few of the many ways to enjoy yourself while staying in Carlsbad.

The driveway can accommodate 2-3 cars. It's a short walk to Carlsbad Village downtown. Or hop on a bus on the corner or the Coaster rail downtown to any place in San Diego County, including Petco Park, the home of the Padres. We provide ideas for local attractions for which the area is so famous. You can even take Amtrak from Oceanside north to Los Angeles. Make this your home away from home.

Summer Season May 31 - Oct 1 = $280 per night $1900 per week, 4 night minimum
Off-Season Oct 1 - May 31 = $260 per night $1780 per week, 3 night minimum

Carlsbad bliss
We've stayed at this location for years. As always, the house was spotless. It isn't fancy, but it has everything thing you need. The porch from which you can view the ocean is wonderful. This house has become our home away from home. It's wonderful.

Conveniently located
The neighboring entertainment was only a short walk away. The beach was across the street, albeit I never went. The unit needs some cleaning as the cushions looked stained, dishes need a thorough cleaning as there is no dishwasher meaning anyone who stays you trust to clean well. Rusted gate sliders need updating before a renter has the unfortunate luck of one breaking. Communication, extra keys, and internet access a plus.

Wonderful location and charming house with a great view!
We love this rental. It was located conveniently right across from the ocean and is within walking distance to some of the restaurants and shops at Carlsbad Village. Everyday we enjoyed our breakfast with the ocean view and every evening we watched the amazing sunset. The house is equipped with everything you will need for a comfortable stay. We played ping pong after the kids went down for the night! The outdoor shower was super convenient to wash the sand off the kids. Location is close to Legoland; only a 10 min drive. The owners are wonderful with responsive communication. I can’t recommend this rental enough.

My wife and I took an extended work vacation in Carlsbad and had a great time. Property as advertised. Great location. Older home that could use a bit of updating but would definitely stay again.

We have been coming to this home since my kids were learning to walk. It is one of their favorite memories and we return to make more. It is our favorite place to stay in Carlsbad. Thank you for sharing your home and letting my kids have this special place in their hearts, and ours, forever.

Nice small home with great views and in a great location. Short walk to the village. Check-in was a tiny bit awkward as I had two different emails with two different lockbox codes. No worries. Would stay again.

It is a small house perfect for two couples. It had all the necessary supplies and the view of the ocean is spectacular! We stepped right out the door,crossed the street and we were on the beach. Thanks!

So Good!
Property was exactly as advertised. All amenities were included and clean. Road was a bit more busy then we thought it would be, but people watching was fun. The only thing we’d say could use an upgrade was the king size bed. Otherwise it was perfect 👍🏽

We had an amazing experience !
Our stay at the Beach House house made special memories in the books. I am a single mother of 3 and this proved to be the perfect spot for us. We didn't really leave besides the beach and walked a short distance for fish and chips. Everything we needed was at the house. Thank you for such a fun atmosphere for me and my kids! We did go to Legoland one day which was a 10 minute drive. Really appreciated letting us use all the beach gear😊

Great spot for gathering family and friends from Carlsbad
Well equipped property in great location! Backyard patio was awesome for cookouts, long driveway provided ample guest parking and watching people and dogs walk by was lots of fun! Grandkids loved the ping-pong table, and playing in the sleep shed! Good chance you’ll hear from us again!!

So lovely
It was everything I had hoped for. The kids and I had such a great time. The fenced yard made it nice to feel safe having kids outside, the outdoor shower made coming back from the beach a breeze. The home is so charming and has such a great happy feel. Thank you! If I were to give one complaint or suggestion it would be that the hot water comes out REALLY hot. This was a bit of a concern with little kids. Maybe a warning would be nice or turn down the water heater a bit. But besides that everything was perfect! Can’t wait to come back.

Girls Trip
We had a wonderful stay. The location and community is outstanding. Went to the beach every day, which is just across the street, to get our feet wet. There was an amazing outdoor shower in the backyard. We rented bikes and rode around Carlsbad village, where all shops and restaurants were open. We had happy hour every night in the front yard watching the sunset. Very cozy beach family home. Will definitely come back for our next trip.

Peaceful sleep to the sound of the surf with the moonlight! Whales and dolphins in the distance, beach right across the street. Cute little bedroom in the back yard with an outdoor shower. An original beach cottage with vintage charm and within walking distance to downtown Carlsbad. Everything we hoped for in a family vacation!

Nice family spot
Wonderful accommodations especially for a family with little children. The hosts respond quickly and provide everything you need( like high chair or pack n play). There’s plenty of dishware and pots/pans, WiFi, beach supplies, and toys. The space is older but still very clean. Also you can’t beat the location where the beach access is literally across the street. The only cons is the noise from the street and the poor insulation as it is an older house. It can get pretty warm with the afternoon sun. Lastly, I’d say the only other thing I’d change is to have blackout curtains. The morning sun can wake up the kids pretty early! Otherwise, great stay and little getaway vacation!

Location is everything
We really enjoyed our our week. With the cottage being right across from the beach we could just walk over anytime ( and we did that a lot). Didn’t have to look for parking. There was a place to park the rental car off the street at the cottage. There was plenty of room to eat around the table and visit in the living room. We spent a lot of time on the small enclosed front porch it was cozy. It was somewhat noisy from the traffic that was constant even throughout the night. The area in the back yard was nice but still a little cold to eat at the picnic table. The bedrooms were ok. The bathrooms were not close to the bedrooms so that was inconvenient when 2 couples are staying together. We were disappointed with the grills. There was a charcoal and a gas grill. On both of them the grates were rusted and unusable. On one of them there was still food inside. So we bought disposable pans to cook on the grill. I didn’t realize we had to clean, strip the beds and start the laundry but that might have been my fault. I don’t remember reading that anywhere on the ad about your property but it could have been there. I read so many different ones it was hard to keep them all straight. It wasn’t a big deal. Overall we had a very good time.

Love this home, because it is a home....lots of charming windows, we spent a lot of time on the front porch...people watching in the morning and sunsets in the evening. The location is incredibly convenient for walks into the village for shopping, happy hour and dinners. The view to the beach and ocean is outstanding, thank you for sharing!

Lovely beachside home in Carlsbad, CA
This wonderful beach house is ideally located along the ocean and within walking distance to Carlsbad Village. The village area is quaint, nice shops and restaurants. The home is cozy, plenty of room with two nicely appointed bedrooms, a well stocked kitchen and an enclosed porch for relaxation facing a beautiful ocean view. The backyard is private, has nice lighting and a garage (we stored our bikes in here.) Owners communicate quickly and instructions were easy to follow. Our stay went without a hitch. I would stay here again!
