This house was perfect for my family's one week stay in Carlsbad. My two younger sons (8 & 11) loved hanging out in the playroom with the toys and the foosball table. My 13 year old loved her room and could find plenty of spots around the house, inside or out, to unwind when she wasn't hanging out with us. House is in a quiet neighborhood and the beach was about a 10 min. walk. Even during the busy days there was no problem finding a spot on the beach to set up for the day. House is also close to attractions (Legoland) and about a 10 min drive to Carlsbad Village for shops and restaurants. And if you don't want to drive and park, there's a train about a 5 min walk from the house that you can catch that takes you into Carlsbad, or down to San Diego if you're heading that way. Very convenient. The house was clean and spacious, and the pictures and descriptions were accurate. This isn't a house where you get there and realize the pictures are dated and everything isn't quite as nice as you expected. The house is awesome! What really set the experience apart for us compared to previous rentals were the hosts. Kim was very helpful and quick to respond to any questions. When we expressed interest in surf lessons she went out of her way to provide recommendations and even left wetsuits for all three kids. The lessons were one of the big highlights of the trip for our kids. We had one of our best vacations and would love to return in the future. Thanks Kim & Jeff!

This Carlsbad beach house was perfect for our family vacation! The location was perfect. A very nice south Carlsbad State beach was easily accessed by a 10 minute walk. The house itself was located in a cul-de-sac neighborhood which was nice and quiet. Kim and Jeff thought of every need in the house including skewers for roasting marshmallows on the outdoor fire pit. The converted playroom garage area was fully stocked with toys that fit all age groups. Our grandsons had hours of fun in the playroom! There was easy access to Interstate 5 making it easy to get to San Diego and various theme parks. Thank you Kim and Jeff for sharing your beautiful beach house!

This home was so great for our family of 6! We have 4 kids 8 and under and Kim & Jeff converted the garage into a kids room and it was the best! The kids loved it! We had a 6 month old baby and they had extra baby items, bouncer, High chair, crib and other things that were great to have since we couldn’t fit those in our suitcases. The fire pit was a hit for our kids too! The beach was about a 10 min walk away and down a set of stairs and it was the perfect distance for our kids to walk to and from. The house was very clean and organized. We also went to Legoland and it was a 10 min drive. Jeff & Kim even gave us wetsuits for our kids, which was really nice! They made the whole process easy. We will definitely be staying here again next time we come down!

Such a wonderful home for a big family vacation! Close to the beach, spotless, great communication from hosts, comfy beds, awesome playroom, tons of amenities - we had a blast. Kids loved making S’mores! Thank you!

The property was clean and well appointed. I generally expect this from a rental. What put this over the top was the kids playroom and closeness to both the beach and Legoland. Perfect for a family with young kids!

This house is an absolute dream. When you imagine getting a house close to the beach, you wouldn’t even hope it was this good. The pictures are accurate. It was spotlessly clean and had everything you could need. The neighborhood felt so safe and welcoming. My 80-year-old in-laws took a walk every morning and loved it. We had three generations staying at the house, and we all had enough living space and hangout space. The owners are beyond gracious and wonderful to communicate with. Do yourself a favor and book this house!

Perfect getaway location! The house is so family friendly and conveniently located. We enjoyed the beach, Lego Land and the zoo. All 3 generations were happy! It is one of the nicest stays we’ve had as the owners have thought of everything and were so nice to rent from. Hope to go back!
