The home was just as advertised and well kept up. The kitchen has enough of the basics to knock out a meal including the grill. It is definitely close to a rocky beach. But if you want a sandy spot to enjoy, you'll have to walk or drive up a ways then set up your spot. It's still closer than fighting traffic from home to the beach though. We're overall happy with the location once we had a beach plan. And the house itself is great.

I was in the Navy at Camp Pendleton 15 years ago.My baby girl and my grandson had never been to Oceanside.We took the entire family to Oceanside for my grandson's birthday and Matt's property was great.They went to the beach and we went up and down Coast highway visiting different restaurants.Overall the trip was great and we are coming back in March and we'll be using Matt's property again

Beautiful house! Exactly as described. Everything was super clean. Great host, would rent again.

The property itself is nice. The area is not quiet if that's what you're looking for. There's a club behind the property and the frequency of trains with bells passing across the street throughout the day. Although, if you're looking for clean and, spacious place to hold a nice size group... this is the place for you. The property manager was flexible with our check out time and that was very nice!

We had a wonderful time staying at this property. The house was very clean and well stocked with any kitchen items we could possibly need. We were only a few blocks from the rocky beach and a 20 minute walk from the Strand. The rooftop deck is an added bonus. We loved the fire pit and fireplaces in the house because the weather was a little chilly and rainy. We would definitely stay at this property again.

We really enjoyed our stay. Very nice place and walking distance to the peer.

Great place to come a relax. We attended Graduation at MCRD San Diego. Very clean and spacious. Lots of room for everyone. Nice having the garage to park in. Close to everything. Thanks Matt for being a great host.

Not quite the location I had in mind. The master faced a bar which was quite loud. One evening there was a bar fight and the police came. The train tracks were a half a block away and were also loud. Limited beach access. You definitely have to drive to get to a kid friendly beach.

We spent a lovely Thanksgiving Weekend in Oceanside at the Townsite Home. The weather was gorgeous. The home is close to the beach but access to sandy beach is a half mile walk north. While there is a closer beach access, it is through a boulder and rock strewn trail that is not for small kids or seniors. The home backs to a bar so there is some late night noise from the alley. The train crossing is a block to the west, but we really didn't hear it during our stay. There is an outdoor propane griddle but not a BBQ. Quite a few of the lights were out in the home, including the dining room chandelier, the over head floodlights in the living room and the bathroom lights over the sink in the master bathroom. Overall the home was clean and the beds were comfortable. The appliances all worked, but the washing machine detergent auto-dispenser does not work. The non stick frying pans are pretty worn and all of the knives were dull. Most of the cupboard doors are sticky. The kitchen sink retractable nozzle is sprung. The couches were comfortable for watching TV and we liked the large dining area. All the things described are a little nit-picky and we made everything work. Overall we enjoyed our stay and the lodging was good. With a few adjustments it would be excellent. Marc

Loved the roof top the closeness to the beach. The house was very spacious, would stay again

The property was spacious and clean. Since we were only two couples traveling together, we only used two of the three bedrooms. The kitchen was very nice and had most if not all of the cookware we needed. The train tracks are very close, but the sound of the trains did not bother us at all. Our only regret was that we didn't utilize the rooftop deck more. :)

My adult girlfriends and I rented this property for a weekend and it was an excellent experience. There were no problems getting into the house and everything was as expected, actually even better than expected. The AC works great which was a real help since it’s August. There are several places to sit together and chat and a nice big table with seating for up to seven comfortably. If you will be cooking, the kitchen is spacious and has a great island, however I would suggest bringing your favorite pan and anything you might need for cooking that is specialized. There were no measuring spoons but we made do. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this clean and modern property.

Great family getaway

Amazing time at this home. Easy access to Legoland and the safari park. Only negative and it is not with the house. The beaches close to the house was very rocky and very little sand. You have to drive into downtown Oceanside to get good beaches. Over all it is a great house. We enjoyed our stay there very much.

Very nice house. We’ll supplied and clean. Some mold on one of the shower curtains which was reported to the maintenance man. Could use some hangers in the closets. Loved the rooftop sitting area with the fire pit.

Matt, Is so wonderful to work with. Easy check in and so close to the beach. I would definitely stay again!

The property is beautiful - a really lovely home. In a previous review there was a note about the sound carrying and it does carry really well unfortunately. Check-in was a breeze and Matt was quick in his responses. The highlight of the property is the rooftop area - really loved that space and spent time up there. The pictures on the website are exactly how it looks.

Great property and lovely kitchen/bedroom size. Home was spotless and very tidy when we arrived. We liked that we could park 2 cars in the garage. Beds were extremely uncomfortable and creaked with every move. Didn’t really get the best sleep but we were only there for a weekend. Location is ok. The home is next to a trailer park

This house is beautiful! The perfect amount of space for our teens and their friends for a friends and family spring break trip. Matt is an amazing host! He replied quickly with every question we had and even replaced the blender when we discovered the original one didn’t have a blade. The location is great, even though it’s not near a beach with much sand. We didn’t mind the short drive with our boogie boards just north of the pier instead. The fire pit on the rooftop was a fun amenity at night. We are so grateful for such a nice place to make memories!

Overall house is nice but needs new towels, more pillows (some beds didn’t even have pillows or a full sheet set on them) and better toilet paper which is basic needs. It doesn’t mention that the location is next to a non swimmable beach it’s all rocks no sand. The plus side is the roof top deck is nice with a small firepit, the house is spacious and has nice fireplaces in multiple rooms.

The house is spacious, clean, fully stocked, the location is wonderful, check-in was a breeze! Can’t wait to come back and enjoy more time here!

House was spacious and we particularly enjoyed the rooftop patio for our morning coffee as we looked at the ocean

Traveled to Oside for babies first birthday with 2 sets of grandparents, teenage brother and our little family. Plenty of room for all. Walked the 1.4 miles to the pier with babes wagon each day for coffee and waves. Took about 25mins one way. Lots of good food nearby - the roof terrace was a great grown up hangout at night once the babe was asleep in her playpen (in the master bathroom). Only note for future stayers to consider is noise really carries. We didn’t hear the Oside train from inside at all - but footsteps overhead, talking from the first floor to loft bedroom.. some had trouble sleeping through it in our group. Matt was a dream host - super accommodating and we had a blast. Would stay again!

Stayed here with my extended family for a birthday weekend. We were all able to sleep comfortably. The owner was attentive to our needs and quickly resolved an issue with the sink.

Our family loved this property. It was incredibly clean, modern, and had all the space we needed to have an amazing trip to Oceanside. Nearby train tracks were less of an issue than anticipated and the positives of the property far outweigh any concern. Working with the owner was a breeze, and he was very accommodating. For the price, I would consider this one of the best values in Oceanside!

The house was excellent. Very clean and very spacious. Perfect for large family. The beach we were close to wasnt the best for young kids. So we drove to the pier beach which was a short drive. Make sure you use the garage to park in. We had 4 cars and we had to use street parking. Unfortunately my daughters truck got broken into and a lot of stuff was stolen. If you do need to park in the street make sure you take all your belongings inside with you. On the plus side it was pretty quiet. There is a train close by but we rarely heard it. Matt the contact person was available to us at all times. Over all this was a perfect house for us. We do recommend it.

Thank you

This property is awesome. Tons of room and well maintained. Very clean and comfy. Just steps to the beach and shopping.

Beautiful property. Very spacious with two distinct lounging spaces. The train tracks are much closer and noise from both the trains and street intersection warnings were very loud. Restaurants and shopping were farther away than expected. We had to drive to both. Enjoyed the roof deck. One suggestion, go the the nearest Dollar store and purchase some cheap chair felt pads. The chairs in the dining room were heavy and extremely noisy to move.

Great house where we could easily get to the water and to downtown. Lots of good places to eat that are walkable. House was very clean and nice. Rooftop deck was great and our kids really liked eating/sitting up there. Checkin/checkout process was easy. Will absolutely stay here again.
