We had a wonderful experience at Kim's place. Check-in was a breeze. The kitchen is very well stocked and there is plenty of seating for large groups. The bunk beds are perfect for multiple children and of course the playset and trampoline were wonderful to have to keep the kids occupied. The chickens were a lot of fun and the kids enjoyed feeding them. We will definitely be back for our next beach trip!

This property was the key to arranging a family reunion. There was 95 year old matriarch, 3 couples, and 4 children aged 5 to 11. We went to Legoland, San Diego Zoo, community pool, and beach in Oceanside. We served dinner for 17 at the house one night and were able to arrange dinners for 17 at Benihana and at Campfire, a local restaurant in Carlsbad that was excellent. The children loved the trampoline and playground slide on the property. When we arrived, we noticed a couple of loose door handles and a disengaged cabinet hinge. The property manager came on a Sunday to fix what he could and returned on Monday to finish the job. On the negative side (not much) there was the grill brush, which needed a good cleaning or replacement. We notified owner of this when we left, and she promised to take care of it. Although the house technically had 6 bedrooms, at least one of them (ours, of course), had very limited drawer space and no closet. It was not good living out of suitcases. The room badly needs an upgrade. Overall, everyone had a great time. Our grandkids say they want to return. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

We had an amazing time at this house. It was our annual family get together with many different families including 7 kids (ages 0-5 years). Everyone had a great time and truly loved the house! It was perfect for kids, with an outdoor play structure and trampoline to play on and a big backyard space. Great outdoor table, we ate every lunch and dinner there. It was wonderful to be able to get the whole family together. The house is fantastic, beautiful in a great neighborhood on a quiet cul-de-sac, and very close to the beach and Legoland, and the local grocery store which was very useful. Lots of beds made it easy to find a good sleeping arrangement. The house even had books, toys, games, and movies which the kids loved. There were several times when the kids didn't even want to go to the beach, they just wanted to stay and play at the house! We have rented many different vacation homes for our group over the years in many different places all across the country. This was clearly the best one we have ever stayed in. We would definitely come back here!

This property exceeded our expectations. We spent a week here and this home had a fully stocked kitchen including a rolling pin! We cooked most of our meals there as our younger grandchildren are hard to deal with at restaurants and we prefer to eat at home. The Grandkids loved all the toys, dolls, slide, swing, trampoline and all the other goodies that were available for them to play outside. It was so relaxing lounging in the yard and watching them play. The home was comfortable, clean and had more than enough sleeping areas for the 9 of us. We also appreciated the fact that when we had a problem we could call the owners and get immediate assistance. Kim and Ben were great to work with. We loved that the home was close to grocery stores, Costco, and beach. We have already recommended this home to a few of our friends who are planning family get togethers. This is by far the best family friendly VRBO rental we have stayed at with our Grandchildren and rest of the family. we hope to get back there soon. Thank you Ben and Kim.

We had 10 people stay at this property (including 4 small children). We all had plenty of room and never felt over crowded. The backyard was wonderful for the kids to play. The owners were great in letting us use beach equipment in their garage and their kitchen was fully stocked with all the things you need to cook with. The house is the owner’s full time residence so we were not able to access closets. Hanging racks were provided in the bedrooms, but we didn’t realize that ahead of time and did not bring hangers. One of the owners needed to access his house during our stay to mow the lawn and change door codes. It was a bit unexpected, but he tried to be fast and stay out of the way. Kim was great in providing a list of things to do in the area and activities for July 4th. All in all, we had a great time.

This house was better than we could have ever imagined. So much for kids to do there, they never got bored. Kim was so nice and helpful. House was well stocked with stuff for beach. Kitchen had everything we needed to include spices for cooking. House was clean and spacious. So comfortable and fully equipped with games and things to do. It was so close to the beach. Great house for entertaining and for large groups. We look forward to renting it again.

We had 3 young children and 6 adults and I appreciate how the house was nice, clean and they didn't have a bunch of knickknacks around for the kids to get into. They did have children's toys and the back yard children's play yard was a blessing. We loved just sitting and relaxing in the patio watching all the butterflies and humming birds. The kitchen is brand new and we made many family meals there with no problems. Beds were very comfortable and the house being 2 levels was very quite (You couldn't hear anything in t he other rooms). Great location with the grocery store around the corner and the beach 1.5 miles away.

Kim was awesome. She was very promt with replies to all my questions. This property is very nice with all the upgrades inside. Great kitchen and plenty of space for families. The house was very clean which makes it easy to get comfy in a new place. Located close to everything you would want beach, shopping, and great restaurants.
