About this cottage rental
Cozy small house in North Grover Beach, great ocean and Pismo dune views from huge living-room windows and porch.
You will have the whole house to yourselves! The home sits by itself on lot, no other tenants, and no owners are onsite. It is located on a corner lot, plenty of room outside, open and airy feeling, neighbors are on one side only.
The covered, ocean-view front porch, with chairs and table, is perfect for relaxing and enjoying our stunning Central Coast sunsets. Plenty of parking. Small backyard patio.
There is one queen bed. One large couch (not a bed), plus one air bed (adult-sized, electric-inflated).
Authentic mid-century decor and furniture and bric-a-brac, most of which have been in our family for decades. :) Don't expect fancy marble countertops and Xenon lighting (ha-ha), just a clean and comfortable stay with authentic retro character.
All photos have all actually been taken from the living room and porch of the house, not from "nearby".
The home is located in beautiful Grover Heights, a short drive or bike ride to the entrance to Oceano Dunes, Pismo Beach, and the Butterfly Preserve.
Unlike staying at a hotel, you will have a full kitchen, small-full-sized refrigerator, and full-sized stove (experience the spotless '50s-vintage O'Keefe & Meritt-including full-sized oven, broiler, even a built-in griddle for your homemade pancakes! They don't make 'em like this anymore...), microwave, dining table for four, with view.
Also unlike at most hotels/STRs, you are welcome to bring any*/all of your doggies, to enjoy the beautiful Central Coast with you! (No limit on number, just $50 per pet, per stay. )
*Dog breed limitations: While we ourselves love all shapes/sizes/colors/breeds of dogs, we personally know others who have had regrettably have had instances of pit bull/terrier breeds (and others) attacking people or other dogs, resulting in liability claims. Insurance companies sometimes even deny coverage for injury claims in which those breeds are involved. Thus, we regret that our property cannot accept pit bull or related terrier breeds, or any mixes including those breeds. Should we learn one of those breeds is on the property (regardless of whether brought by you or any visitor) we reserve the right to immediately cancel your occupancy and require your whole party to vacate immediately. Sorry...

17 day holiday fun
My wife and I really enjoyed this Grover property. Even though it’s living area sounded small the floor plan makes it feel large and not cramped at all. Our trip was filled with pedaling over 350 miles, 40 miles of beach walking, deep sea chartered fishing, and kayaking. All of which was so convenient to this rental. The property manager was as good as it gets for communication and availability. We’ll definitely return.
Doug and Patti
Also should add not only is this rental very dog friendly, the whole neighborhood is very dog friendly. I’ve never seen a neighborhood with so many dog walkers.

Clean & comfortable in a convenient location
Grandpa's Beach House is exactly as described - it certainly hasn't been updated, but the property is clean and everything works properly. Although old, it didn't feel grungy at all.
The only items that could have been cleaner were some of the kitchen items - several of the glasses were actually stuck to the shelf paper in the cabinet. However, I usually wash any kitchen items before using them anyway, because I don't expect the owners to rewash every every kitchen item after every guest leaves, and you never know how well previous guests will have washed something.
Both the living area and the bedroom were larger than we had expected and provided plenty of room for my husband, 2 teen-age boys (who didn't mind sleeping on the couch), dog, and me.
The owner, Kim, was very responsive when I asked for kitchen towels (I could only find one) and extra pillow cases (which it turns out we didn't need as I later found them in a garbage bag in the cabinet underneath the bathroom sink).
The location was great - a 25-minute walk to Grover Beach a 45-minute walk to downtown Pismo Beach, and a 20-minute drive to Cal Poly. The house is at the top of the hill, so the views are pretty nice, but the hill is not too steep to walk or run up. We will definitely consider staying in this home again.

Cool Antique Roadshow
Kim greeted us with a cool tour of some of the house and his fun antique cars. You’ll have to visit for yourself to find out what kind of cars they are! :) the house is filled with antiques down to the silverware and glasses. We liked it! My dog liked it. Nice neighborhood for walking your dog. Very close to the beach. Close to the dunes. I was a little worried about the bed but I slept so good! The shower pressure was amazing too especially after a long day at the dunes. We recommend Papis Tacos (I think that’s the name of the place) local, affordable and the best tacos!

The house was very comfortable and had everything we needed. It was also in a great location, near to shops, grocery store and restaurants in Grover beach. Just a few minutes' drive to Grover Beach for morning walks and we could watch the sun set sitting from the front porch in the evening. Also close to Pismo Beach and Avila Beach. Would recommend this place to anyone.

It's an older house, but the owners were very good about letting us know where the (very minor) inconveniences were. The owners were extremely accommodating, and the location was perfect! It's far enough away from the beach to avoid the tourist crowds, but close enough to have the view and quick access to sights! I would highly recommend for locals as well as visitors to the area! The owners even provided a list of dog friendly venues and sights!

Cozy home, great location, the dogs liked it too!
Kim is a wonderful owner to work with. He was very helpful and accommodating. We stayed for three weeks and loved the tidy house and ideal location. Lots to explore and so close to the beach. 😊🏖🏄♀️!

Cozy comfort
We enjoyed our weekend get-away to Grover Beach. The house was comfortable, like staying at your grandparents' house. It was centrally located to many things we wanted to do. And Kim couldn't have been nicer.

Charming, comfortable, and convenient!
We loved Grandpa’s beach house! It was everything we needed with an “at home” feel. An affordably priced place in a nice neighborhood, just minutes from all amenities and the beach.

Grover Beach will always be our home...
It was really nice to come back to this cozy home away, after a day visiting with friends. We are from the area and really enjoyed being able to be in Grover close to all of our friends. Kim met us at the property and gave us the tour and showed us where everything was that we might need, during our stay. The beach house was clean, comfortable and a good place to stay for the week. Grover Becah will always be home ❤ Thank you!

Amazing area !
The beach house served as a cozy nest to unwind after a long drive .
It is centrally located for many attractions .. Pismo Beach is adjacent
to Grover Beach , San Luis Obispo is about a 10 minute drive , and dreamy
Morro Bay is a mere 12 miles away . So much to see & do , there's little time for boredom to settle in ...
The property was clean and adequate for our needs . California Fresh is a great local , organic store , located off of five Cities Drive . They offer fresh sushi daily , a huge deli section , and amazing coffee priced @ only $ 1.50 , no matter what size you choose !
Arroyo Grande is also close by : more great coffee shops & a fun town to
just hang out . ( lots of unique little shops )
Our host , Kim was very accommodating & sincerely interested in our having an enjoyable visit ! Look forward to a future return to this amazing
area !

Amazing owners with an ideal location!
The owners were welcoming & helpful even before I officially rented their home.
Upon arrival I found that the house was tidy & felt like a home away from home & could be considered a cozy vacation place for either a single person or a family.
It's located in a safe, peaceful neighborhood where the neighbors are friendly & at night there aren't any loud screeches of partiers or the squealing of tires on the pavement from the wrong kind of mischief being made.
The cost is most definitely reasonable, the owners & the place & location are ideal, & I will most definitely be a repeat when I'm back in the area.
Thank u again for the wonderful stay!

This home was perfect for our three night stay. My wife and I wished we had stayed for a longer time. The home is comfortable, safe, and clean. It is located in a quiet neighbourhood and its proximity to the other towns in the area makes it very convenient. The kitchen was great and we were able to make breakfast and a few dinners when we felt like staying in for the night. Wifi is speedy and we were able to watch the LA Kings games on the large flat screen. The hosts are very friendly and attentive. There is much to do on the Central coast. Bring your bikes, there are numerous paths. Within a few kilometres, you can drive or ride to the Monarch Butterfly Grove and observe thousands of butterflies. Then head to Arroyo Grande to walk the suspension bridge and dodge the wild roosters and chickens that inhabit the towns creek and downtown area. Both Grover Beach and Arroyo Grande have many pubs and eateries. Pismo Beach is right next to these towns and can be very colorful. San Luis Obispo is only about ten miles away and has a great college town feel. Thursday nights offer the Farmers Market and is a great thing to if in SLO. Morro Bay is just another 12 miles away and offers fresh seafood and many beautiful views of the volcanic plug that is Morro Rock. The beach is beautiful and to me, epitomizes the central coast beach. Sand dunes with wide expanses of beach. Lots of solitude. This home is in the middle of it all and should be on your radar for a home away from
home while exploring the Central Coast. Be certain to visit some wineries. Offering solid Pinot Noir varietals.

Very comfy and cute!
We were looking for a place to celebrate Thanksgiving in between our nor cal Home, my mom’s home in so. cal, and close to our daughter, who attends Cal Poly. We we’re delighted to find this cute and cozy house. We were even able to bring our pup and had an absolutely wonderful time and built beautiful memories. Kim and Susan couldn’t have been more gracious and accommodating. The location is conveniently located near beaches, sand dunes, excellent restaurants and supermarkets. The linens were soft and fluffy, the furniture cozy, and the kitchen very well stocked. I was even able to make our improvised Thanksgiving meal, including a pie with the available pie plate and measuring cups and spoons. I was so pleasantly surprised! Thank you so much for letting us share a fantastic Thanksgiving at Grandpa’s Beachhouse!
