A beautiful Home

We stayed here at the beginning of August. It's a beautiful house- it has everything and is new, well equipped and comfortable. The house is situated just before you reach Carlsbad, which is a beautiful town. Stay here - you won't be disappointed!

Even despite a mild hiccup, Debbie went out of her way to make us feel comfortable. I highly recommend. Close to a number of good restaurants and even a small grocery store all within walking distance.

Great neighborhood and lovely home

We had a great time staying at this well-situated home in Oceanside. A short walk to coffee, breakfast burritos (yum), donuts, organic grocery store, and more. Can easily bike to Carlsbad and to Oceanside Pier. Loved the simple, clean decor of the home and the backyard was an oasis. Very peaceful. The garden was full and vibrant. Definitely recommend!!!

Great long weekend, charming beach house and great location!

We stayed from a Friday to a Tuesday, and it was wonderful - the house had everything we could have needed or wanted, and the location was perfect. We could walk to coffee, breakfast and the market, and Carlsbad Village and the beach were just a short walk away. We also enjoyed Legoland and rode the Coaster, both of which were also close. The house was perfect for our family of 4, highly recommended! Beautiful backyard with a garden (we enjoyed the apples, tomatoes and basil), and lots of room for the kids to play. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Can't wait to come back!

Great location & perfect little house for us & our friends. We both have small children & this house worked out wonderful for us! Debbie was wonderful to work with from the beginning & through out. Very accessible for recommendations & questions. The house was very clean & well stocked. We enjoyed hanging out in the backyard with our 18 month old. I really hope to stay there again in the near future!

Great place to enjoy some relaxing sunny beach days

The house is very well maintained and equipped. Large kitchen, nice living room with A/C and comfy couch, all rooms had an appealing wooden floor. In the garage there were several bikes and parasols, and the garden was beautiful in particular in the morning sun. Best ice cream place in town is only 2 minutes to walk as well as a burger and pizza restaurant restaurant. The nicer Oceanside beaches can easily be reached by car in a few minutes with an amazing boardwalk. Overall we highly recommend

Great vacation rental!

My husband and I spent five days at this wonderful home last week. It was as advertised and as pictured - and then-some. Everything was clean, modern and in working order - with extras of everything in the well-stocked cupboards. I only wish my home were as neat and organized! Debbie was extremely helpful and friendly and so easy to work with. We were there from New York on a (successful) home-buying expedition so we didn't really go to many of the local attractions, but it it well situated for sight-seeing. The grounds were also immaculate and having all that yard space and the growing veggies was wonderful. The beds are comfortable, there are ample linens, and there are even beach chairs and two bikes in the garage. What more could you ask for? You will be delighted with this rental.

Cozy Stay: Perfectly located near local eateries.

This Stylish Home deserves 5+🌟. My husband and I drove in from Oklahoma to Welcome Home some troops and our son from Deployment. We ended being a couple of hours early and they accommodated us, no problem. Very clean and anything you need to stay in and prepare a meal was provided. The location is very close to the beach and local eateries! We frequented Revolution Roaster! We will be back!

Great house in a beach town

Our stay was excellent. Debbie provided all necessary information prior to check in. The check in process was very easy and there is ample room for a family. The beach and many restaurants are within walking distance. We happened to have great weather for our mid-February stay. We’re looking forward to another visit to South O and hope to stay here again.

Our stay at Debbie's house in South Oceanside exceeded our expectations. Debbie was quick to respond throughout our trip and even brought us some extra kitchen supplies when we first arrived.

Cozy Little Bungalow

This little bungalow was perfect for what we were looking for! There were a total of 5 of us and it fit us perfectly. House had all the essentials so we were able to make all of our meals with no hassle. Debbie and John were so easy to communicate with! The house does not have AC but that wasn't too big of an issue, and we stayed during Labor Day weekend with the extreme heat wave (95+ degrees!). One of the fans they provided was not working upon arrival and they were kind enough to buy a new fan and deliver it the same day! That was so nice of them! The backyard is very nice and relaxing and a great place to sit and hang out. Would stay here again!
