We are locals and had a fabulous 4 night staycation at this cottage while our home was having some work done. The photos don't do the views or the yard justice!...yard is larger than shown in photos and lagoon and ocean views were very soothing. Every morning we sat at the outdoor table with umbrella (not pictured) for coffee and breakfast, and every evening sat by the gas fire pit (not pictured) for a sunset glass of wine and watched people out walking their dogs. The outdoor living vibe really makes this place. The yard is totally fenced in so we were able to bring our doggy. We were also able to easily fit both our cars in the driveway. We were a 5 min walk from Vigilucci's for evening happy hour, and a 15 min walk from the Village. On Wednesday we perused the farmer's market in the Village and brought home supplies for a great little dinner in the well stocked kitchen. Wifi was strong so we were able to jump on Zoom calls as needed. Perfect size place for a couple and a dog. Second bedroom is pretty small so it would be best for a child vs. another adult. Owner & Manager were quick to respond with a couple of questions we had. A/C blew ice cold when we needed it. Check in and out were super easy. Thanks for a great stay! :)

We had a great time. Close enough to the beach to walk. Denise and Genny were great and answered all of our questions. The yard is a definite plus especially at night to enjoy the views and let the kids play.

My family and I had a wonderful time staying at this adorable home in Carlsbad. Honestly, the pictures posted online should be updated because the home was even better than shown online. It was clean, comfortable, and in a great neighborhood. We would absolutely stay here again!

House is open and nice. 5 min walk to beach. If you have dogs, just know that areas of the fence are very low (guessing owner wanted the best view of ocean) and dogs could easily jump over.

This location cannot be beat! It was quiet, clean and lovely. The house is small, but bright and sunny and had what we needed. We brought our older pup and 2 kiddos along and everyone was comfortable and happy. The highlight is the location- on a quiet street, right above the lagoon, a 5 minute, easy walk to the beach. As another renter noted, the beaches close-by are not dog friendly, so be aware of that. We enjoyed Carlsbad- there was a great pizza place we went to twice (Knockout pizza), had great, local brews and ice cream. We took surf lessons from Rusty and Homer at SoCal Surf lessons (it was SO fun) and enjoyed just being in the sun in the front yard. A few tiny amenities would make this house really shine: a few games/cards, extra blankets, coffee and a few oils/spices/bottle of wine? Not necessary, but would be a nice touch. :) We would definitely return.

Pictures do not do this place justice! The outdoor space and backyard is gorgeous, with an ocean view. We spent most nights out there cooking with our kids playing and watching the sunset. It is also on a very quiet street and feels private. If you have smaller kids, it is a longer walk to the beach, we ended up biking with our toddler and it worked great. The lagoon is just across the street which also makes for fun exploring. The only thing I wish was that the master had a king bed (and it would fit). But aside from that it was literally perfect and we will return! Thanks so much to the hosts!

The house is in a great location. Enjoyed the beautiful yard and view. Very clean and comfortable inside. Will definitely return.

Organized, comfortable, updated and welcoming property. This property offers all the comforts of home you would want, in a nice neighborhood with beautiful views. The neighbors are close however the property still feels private. This rental was very clean and sanitary without feeling cold and sterile.

This property was clean, had everything you need and was a 5 minute walk to the beach. The owners provided all the information necessary to make check in and check out easy and straightforward. 2 small things that might helpful for dog owners: 1) Carlsbad State beach is NOT dog friendly. We should have checked beforehand, but coming from the Bay Area where almost every beach is dog friendly, we didn’t even think about it. The closest dog friendly beach was about a 20 minute drive and it was lovely. 2) The property is fenced in (as stated in the description), however it is quite low in certain areas (2-3ft). Our dog listens well so he stayed away, but it might be good to know for those who have larger dogs.

We loved this cute house. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking supplies (bring your own ingredients), and the yard is a great place to hang. Would definitely come back.

Amazing property with a 5-10 min walk to the beach. Can't ask for anything better than this. Kid and pet friendly accommodations. Will rent again. Thank you.

We were very impressed with this property. It was a short walk to the beach, which was great for using a canvas wagon to pull our two kids! The house was clean and had an amazing backyard, we were able to eat every meal outside at the tables with the great umbrellas. And the outdoor shower with hot water was KEY! Kids and sand, solved all the issues and kept our house clean! We would come back again!

Excellent location. I would stay again..

This property was ideally located and perfect for your pet with a fenced yard. A beautiful ocean view from the house and yard. We’ll be back!

Great place and enjoy the time there with my dog. Relaxing and close to the beach.

Great place to stay. Simple and easy to get to. Dogs and family loved the house and nice yard. Close to lagoon and beach. We had a amazing time

This is a small old house but it is kept super clean. Floorplan is nicely laid out for the size. It was very well stocked with all we needed. You can see the ocean from the house but it is looking around another small house directly in front of this one. Overflow parking by people going to the beach fills up the whole street parking area. If your plan is to spend a lot of your time on the beach, the access from here is not the best. You walk down a hill then around the lagoon to get to the street by the beach, HWY 101. There is no crossing set up at that spot so you then walk another half block to a traffic light to cross safely. We were doing mostly day trips from the house so we enjoyed our stay very much.

Nice neat clean house with a great view particularly for sunset

We were thrilled with our experience and would definitely return to this house! The kitchen is well-supplied, all rooms are clean, comfortable beds, clean linens, and comfortable furniture. The yard is well kept and is perfect for dogs!!! And the outdoor table and furniture is so pleasant, with nice views of the ocean. It’s a quick walk to the beach. It’s also a pleasant and quiet neighborhood.
