. . . would you like to know WHY???
#1. We have beautiful unobstructed panoramic white water views of the ocean, inside the house and out!
#2. We are just a short walk to the beach. A scenic trail to the beach starts just a few steps from the house.
#3. We are in a SAFE location, on a QUIET residential neighborhood with little traffic.
#4. We have a beautifully landscaped grassy yard looking out to the ocean. Enjoy the ocean while dining on the patio, sunbathing in the yard, or sitting around the fire pit with a beverage at sunset.
#5. We are dog friendly.
#6. We are NOT on a noisy street with lots of traffic, or next to a bar with live music, a restaurant, or apartments with loud parties at night.
#7. We are close to everything! 10 minutes to Legoland; 30 minutes to Seaward; 35 minutes to San Diego Zoo; 45 minute to Wild Animal Park; 1:15 hour to Disneyland;
Your home-away-from home at the beach is fully equipped, and features lovely views of the ocean, with plenty of outdoor space for the children to play and the adults to relax. You will enjoy wonderfully comfortable beds, a well-stocked kitchen, plenty of off-street parking, wireless broadband, private laundry facilities, a grassy yard with patio furnished for outdoor dining and lounging, a propane grill, a fire-ring. Beach chairs, towels, umbrellas, boogey boards, beach toys and coolers are provided, along with all your linens and basic kitchen supplies.
And it's sparkling clean!
At the beach you will find lifeguards, restrooms and showers. There are designated areas for surfing and swimming.
Pelicans, egrets, seagulls, and great blue herons will point the way as you follow the short and easy scenic trail from the property to the beach (about a block-and-a-half).
In the evening, enjoy the view of the magnificent sunset over the Pacific and the graceful flight of many sea birds, while you cook dinner on the grill. If you've brought children, there's plenty of room for them to play, and you can relax knowing they are safe in the yard.
Stroll, bike, or rollerblade a few blocks up the coast to the "village" for lunch. Explore the small shops, boutiques, antique stores and cafes. There are many excellent restaurants, and If you in the mood for romantic evening out, one of Carlsbad's best ocean view restaurants is just three blocks from your home.
Carlsbad Premium Outlets mall - a five minute drive away - is a shopper's paradise. But remember to save some energy for tomorrow . . .
Will it be surf lessons, sunbathing, or golf, the Zoo, the Wild Animal Park, Sea World, Legoland, Old Town, Balboa Park, jet skiing, deep sea fishing, The Lagoon Discovery Center, Disneyland, or . . . Just RELAXING at the BEST SPOT IN CARLSBAD!

The description of the property was spot on. We were so happy. Very convenient, within walking distance to restaurants and shops. Nice view of the ocean and the yard was perfect for our dogs. We’re looking forward to staying here again soon.

2nd year there and better than the 1st. Clean, neat, affordable, fantastic view.
The only issue (Which is very minimal) the grass was overgrown and leaves on the yard.
Definitely plan on staying there again next year!

Stayed in Carlsbad for an extended layover from ATL to Kona to visit with friends. I previously lived in Carlsbad and knew this spot would be a perfect location to reconnect with old friends and visit my favorite spots. Great location if you know the area, easy beach access. Simply property - nothing fancy but clean and has everything you need for a short stay. Amazing sunset/Ocean views. Looking forward to staying again in the future.

Loved the location. My teenagers loved walking to the beach. Easy access to and from the freeway. Loved sitting on the porch at night with a drink.
4.8
We really loved the views and the ease to the beach. It has a beautiful fenced in side yard that’s great for dogs to wander. It was clean and comfortable. My suggestion would be to update the kitchen. There is little room to prepare and store food. Other than that a great stay!

Absolutely loved this property. We spent most of our time outside relaxing in the yard - sometimes around the fire pit. We also loved walking the trail system that circles the lagoon that is right by the property. The house had everything we needed and was well appointed. I had trouble opening the door - my fault! and the host responded very promptly. No other issues at all. The most relaxing trip. I am already trying to see when we can come back. Thank you!!

Everything was as advertised. Even better in person. We had a great time and enjoyed the yard and the location is only a 25 minute walk to the heart of Carlsbad. 5 minute walk to Tamarack beach and with the included parking pass it was perfect for our family of 4. It’s at the end of a dead end street which people do park along the road throughout the day. It doesn’t really interfere with the view and the front yard is landscaped very well so it feels very cozy and private. It was quiet even on cinco de mayo holiday. As far as the home goes we kept all the windows open and the breeze was perfect. Big mirrors in the bedrooms and has good hot water for showering and kitchen was fully stocked and clean. TV was nice for evening movies and even though we didn’t use the fire pit or grill it was nice to have. We will definitely look into staying here again. Neighbors were quiet snd there are so many trees and shrubs covering the property it felt super private. We loved it however the main queen bed was very firm for us. Depends on your liking…

Beautiful, well kept home. We enjoyed sitting out in the yard taking in views of the lagoon and ocean and watching happy dogs and their owners start their walks down the trail. House had everything we needed and we would definitely stay here again!

We loved the location overlooking the lagoon (and ocean beyond) and being steps away from a hiking trail. The house was clean, comfortable and had great amenities (like the outdoor fireplace and outdoor seating). We would stay here again!

This is a great property. We loved the view of the ocean every morning and evening. It was very close to the beach, and we walked most of the time. The drive was 2 minutes and easy also. The BBQ was very nice and easy to use so it made outdoor dinners the thing to do.
I would recommend bringing an extension cord so you can plug into the outlet in the main bedroom. My phone cord was too short. I also thought the main bed was on the harder side, but I like soft beds so it’s really an individual preference. We loved our stay and would absolutely love to stay here again!

Great location. Our little dog loved the fenced in yard and the lagoon path that starts out the front door. Outdoor space with gas firepit, bbq, table with umbrella and lounge chairs madee for relaxing afternoons. Amazing lagoon and ocean views. Hope to return.

This small home is truly walking distance to the beach and the boardwalk into Carlsbad. It is on a cul de sac, so very quiet, except for the few sounds from the passing trains.

Beautiful view. House needs repairing.

I spent 3 weeks looking for a rental and kept coming back to this. Upon arrival, it was more than what was imagined! My family and friends we're so ecstatic with the location & view.

Beautiful view, pretty walk to beach, comfortable beds. Kitchen could use a little updating, but I’m there to go to the beach, not cook. Will likely return.
4.8
Perfect property in every way! The house has everything you could possibly need for your stay. The hairdryer was missing and we texted the property manager who ran one right over. The yard is beautiful and perfect for evening cocktails while overlooking the inlet and watching the sun set over the sound of the ocean waves!

Does have a great view out the front window with the line of palm trees and ocean. We loved fishing in the lagoon with the really clear water and saltwater goldfish lining the banks. You can walk to the beach, but it is some distance depending on what you bring. I read the reviews before booking a train and a busy parking area outside. Both were non issues as the train was not loud at all and the parking is just like that in all the beach towns. Carlsbad is a good central location as we visited San Diego and LA.

The location is great! Yard is perfect for kicking back and watching the sun go down or grilling. We had a great time!

limited view
We would love to return after you replace the fridge and trim the bushes in front. I don't think I should have to fix the leak in the fridge that someone knew about and told me how to get on my hands and knees to fix. We had no ocean view from the patio.

Older home, near the beach. Unusually high traffic in front of house for a dead end location. Train is fairly loud in the morning. There is no A/C and the bedrooms stayed too warm. Overall a nice house, could use some updating, with a good
Location to most of the beaches in the area.

This is our second stay, cute little house on great location, short walk to the beach. Because of the great location; expect a lot of cars parked at the front with a lot of noises.
And all the door knobs in the house are falling apart, I wish they would replace them. Specially front/back door, the lock really need to be replace.

This is a great little unpretentious house close to the beach. Less than 10 minute walk to the state beach and mere steps to the lagoon make for a great location. Bring your fishing gear if you are so inclined. Lots of locals fishing out on the lagoon. Everything at the house worked perfectly and bedding and other linens were clean and ready to go when we got there. I would book again in a heartbeat.

Exactly what we wanted. A place with all the amenities of a home. Close to the beach, Walking distance. The place provided a parking pass if you would rather drive and park at the beach. We walked to the beach with a wagon that had all our beach stuff. The place is a little older so no AC. But opening the windows and turned on the fans that helps and we were comfortable. The neighborhood was very quiet. Grocery store is minutes away. And it’s very close to Carlsbad downtown area so there are many restaurants nearby.

Beautiful and Peaceful Location
Best location in Carlsbad! Quiet street across from the lagoon. Easy parking and we had two cars. The yard is perfect for dogs, very secure and plenty of grass. We spent every evening outside on patio watching the sunset. All pictures are accurate. Home was clean, comfy beds, and plenty of accessories to make your stay great! Great location to walk dogs and short walk to beach. Any questions we had were answered with a quick response. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be back!
