About this house rental
Come enjoy this beautifully renovated Pacific Beach home! Only five blocks to the incredible Law St. beach! The inside amenities are just as spectacular as the vast glistening pool (a rarity in the area) and patios on the outside!
Beginning in the summer of 2023, the home will become a monthly minimum rental due to San Diego's new STVR restrictions. Please contact us to inquire about additional discounts for long-term stays.
The house is complete with two spacious living areas, a large dining room, a sparkling new kitchen with an eating area, three bedrooms, and two luxurious bathrooms.
The living areas provide plenty of seating and space for guests, and each includes a flat screen TV and DVD player. There is also one gas fireplace in the home, perfect for those chilly coastal nights. The carpet in this room--known as the family room--has been replaced with beautiful tile as of June 2024. The kitchen includes all standard appliances (fridge, stove, oven, dishwasher, microwave), as well as a Keurig for your morning coffee and a wine cooler for your evening drink. The kitchen is fully stocked with dinnerware, glassware, utensils, and basic cooking accessories, and even includes outdoor dining sets to enjoy on the peaceful patio. Two bedrooms (king, queen) include large dressers and closets, and the third bedroom (twins) has a closet with organizers. All bedrooms have a flat screen TV. The bathrooms each have double sinks, large vanities, and soothing showers (hall bath is a tub/shower combo). The hall cabinets house plenty of pool towels and extra linens, but there is also a washer and dryer included in the home as well.
Outside are two sizable private patios complete with a dining table and lounge furniture. The fully gated pool and relaxing pool deck are perfect for children and adults alike! The pool is not heated at any time.
We also provide vacationers with boogie boards, beach chairs and other leisure gear designed to enhance your stay!

My five friends and I were staying at the lovely beach house. We had a great time. The house is fully furnished and located right by the beach. Our personal highlight: the big pool! Stores, restaurants, and bars are in walking distance. I can highly recommend the house!

We loved the house, very spacious and comfortable, walking distance to the beach, shopping and restaurants. Great pool. Nice outdoor space for family dinners. Quiet neighborhood. Great location for kids and adults.
10.0 / 10.0
The house was nice and comfortable. The pool and outdoor seating made it hard to leave although this Pacific Beach location seems to be 15 minutes from EVERYTHING we wanted to see and do. So perfect. Considering all of this, what topped it all was our host Sue. We’ve stayed at countless rental homes over the years and never have we encountered such warmth, thoughtfulness and kindness. Memorable trip. Sue made it unforgettable.

We had an amazing time during our stay! The pool was our favorite spot. Such a nice home. We would absolutely stay here again. Thank you, Sue!

We stayed for a second year the first 7 days in August. The pool was excellent and enjoyed every day. We went to the Del Coronado one day. Otherwise lots of beach walks, biking, grilling, excellent carryouts, and pool. A wonderful relaxing family vacation. We will return next summer.

The pool was enjoyable and the house is big enough for adults to visit in a large living room and the kids in an other living room.

The host was gracious and very communicative and straightforward. Five stars for her communication. The place was spacious. It was nice having a pool, and being about a 20 min walk (with kids, prob less for others) to the beach was great. The only cons were that place/appliances were a bit dated, and while there were pots/pans, we had to stock up from scratch including cooking oil, salt, and toiletries like shampoo/conditioner. I did communicate this to the host who stopped providing due to COVID and was receptive to the feedback!

Sue’s house is in a great location and the comes with all kinds of extras, like bikes, boogie boards and beach toys. Sue is friendly and very communicative, too. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to be back!

Our extended family used this home for a local staycation and had the best time. All the bedrooms were clean and inviting, the kitchen was large, and having 2 bathrooms was super helpful. The pool is huge and we used it multiple times each day. Great location with plenty of street parking, I know host was quick to respond the few times we had a question. Highly recommend staying at this home

The house is charming, older but well maintained and just the right size for two small families. The owner was very communicative and professional. Plenty of space to park on the street and conveniently located around San Diego attractions and the beach. It’s definitely a bring your own everything rental (incl shampoo), so be prepared to take a trip or two to the store to get what you need. We rented all baby gear through BabyQuip to provide for pack n plays, seating and toys. There are strict rules about noise in the neighborhood, but again, the owner was clear about them early on. A nice stay for a quick trip!

Great place, location, communication..........everything great.
Only suggestions are to keep in mind when buying your food for extended stay, don't forget food storage. I.E storage tubs, plastic baggies, tin foil, plastic wraps etc etc. Also watch out for the hand soap dispensers in bathrooms. Comes out like a rocket and will get you in the shirt if your not paying attention.
Pool was comfortable when we could use and the house is quite comfortable. Enjoy the area!

My family had a wonderful week in San Diego. Sue was perhaps the best vrbo owner I have ever communicated with! The home was perfect for my family and the kids took full advantage of the pool. We look forward to staying in this rental again!

Sue was great in her communication and thoughtfulness. She wrote us a nice letter and left us some delicious cookies! The home was in a great location and we couldn't really have asked for more. Thanks!

The property is just as detailed on the listing. Plenty of room for a family to spread out. It was cold when we arrived to San Diego, so we didn't get to use the pool or layout but the area outdoors looked amazing. Would definitely rent again when visiting!

We traveled to San Diego for spring break. We had issues with our transportation getting there and Sue was extremely accommodating and flexible with us. The home was way more than enough space for our family of 5. We loved the location. We traveled somewhere every day and loved how easy it was to get to destinations North or South of Pacific Beach. The pool was cold in March, but we still got a lot of sun and enjoyed the warmth on the pool deck loungers almost daily. This was best master bathroom shower and most comfortable bed we have had at any vacation rental. Sue gave much of her time sharing recommendations and was very easy to get a hold of when needed. Would definitely stay again.

Our family stayed at this wonderful home for a month when we first relocated to the San Diego area. The location was perfect - comfortable walk to the beach and a comfortable walk to all of the great bars, restaurants and nightlife on Garnet Avenue.House was very large and comfortable for our family of 5. There are two separate family/living rooms each with large screen TV, cable, netflix, etc. Backyard has nice outdoor seating area and a very large pool - a rarity for this area. So you can enjoy the beach and a pool at the same home. Cleaning service was amazing, we had them come weekly while we were there (for a very reasonable extra charge) and it made a difference. House is fully stocked with everything you would want and everything is good quality, including sheets, towels, linens, dishes, etc. The owner is super-easy to deal with. Very responsive and communicative. It's readily apparent that she has a lot of experience in renting homes and dealing with whatever may come up. She was also very thoughtful in checking in with us, offering restaurant recommendations, a sweet welcome note, and other nice touches you'll have to discover for yourself.Would definitely stay again and recommend to friends as well.

We had a great stay at Carlson Cottage. The house is in a nice, quiet neighborhood and it's an easy walk to the beach or stores in PB. Easy drive to other places around San Diego as well. The house is well decorated and well equipped. Sue was very welcoming and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend!

We had a great time during our stay at this home in Pacific Beach. The owner, Sue, was very welcoming and responsive to questions we had. It is obvious that the home is well cared for. The home is very clean, nicely decorated, and well stocked with appliances/things you would need in the kitchen. My kids loved the bunk room. This house had everything we needed to have a wonderful time at the beach. We rode our bikes to the beach everyday. The location is great, just a short bike ride to Law beach. It’s a little too far to walk (at least for us) so it’s nice that the home comes with bikes you can borrow. My kids also loved using the sand toys and boogie boards that were also provided by the owners. The adults were pleased to borrow the beach chairs. The pool was really cold and a bit dirty so we did not use it. It was a bummer to have the pool and not be able to go in. If this house had a heated pool it would be the perfect rental. We knew it was not heated from past reviews and from asking the owner but we still had hope that maybe the kids would be able to swim. Despite this I would definitely recommend this home for families who want to enjoy some time at the beach in a very nice home in a quiet neighborhood.
