About this property

Mile to Ocean! Fully Fenced Private SoCal Cottage

Classic Southern California 1939 beach bungalo offering comfort and access to all the best coastal Oceanside and Soutern California attractions. Oceanside has great weather, amazing eateries, and is very walkable. Soak in some sun at the beach, see the west coast's longest wooden peir, or the sea lions at the Oceanside Harbor, or relax at home with the barbeque, a cold drink and the ocean breeze. This home offers the perfect retreat for anyone looking to enjoy the best of Southern California.

Cruise less than 1 mile down Mission Avenue or Civic Center Drive to Downtown Oceanside and the Beach. Easy walking and freeway access to all of Southern California's greatest attractions.

Oceanside Transportation Center (train, bus, light rail) within one mile, or by car. Coaster and Amtrak (rail service) to all the west coast attractions.

*Please note*
After confirming your booking, we ask all guests to provide a $500 deposit, complete a point of contact form, and renter agreement. The hold is released after 7 days if no incidents occurred during the reservation.

All kinds of bugs and roaches are common in the coastal region of Southern California and I do my best to keep them under control with traps and preventative pest treatments, and sometimes they still find a way to make it on to my property and inside the house!

If you encounter an issue, please let me know and I will be happy to help! :)

Super Hidden Gem
My family and I stayed here so I could attend my GIA lab in Carlsbad. At first we were a little nervous driving up to the address. But once we were inside of the gated property we were happy. The property is clean and well kept. The inside was everything we needed. Would stay again! Definitely!

Hidden Gem mins from Ocean
You would never know this corner of heaven was hidden behind all the lush plants and flowered gates. The house is gorgeous and the kitchen was fabulous. Everything you could need and even things I forgot were provided in the cabinet. The outdoor space was our big hit. We loved the citrus tree and banana trees and nice fire pit area. All the beds were comfy and the best part was the cozy soft blankets and having a fan in each room. This was only my 2nd time renting thru vrbo but I hope they are all awesome like Paul’s listing. He was a fantastic host as well. Left us s’mores stuff & delicious bottle of wine for my daughters birthday. We will definitely book again in the future!

Bang for your buck!
Clean, modern, two bedroom one bath home. Has a fenced patio to hang out as well as fenced yard for dogs to roam. Kind of a rough neighborhood but we had no trouble for our week stay. Trash cans were taken out too which was nice. Other than needing a new couch, property worked great for us! Fully stocked for all your needs and host is great!

Wonderful Family Oasis
We stayed here for a girls trip and honestly, it was amazing. Paul was responsive to a couple of requests that we reached out about, and the home was set up so thoughtfully! From the s'more kit in the kitchen to the relaxing hammock in the backyard, we just really didn't want to leave! The proximity to the beach and downtown area was super close, not walkable, but a short 5-minute or less drive to the happening scene was super convenient. I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Host was able to have house ready hours before check in time, which was a huge help for a family 5 who drove from Seattle. The house was clean and was well stocked with all the essentials. Nice open backyard. Someone even stopped by during our week there to take the trash cans to the curb.
