Quaint & Comfortable Cottage-short walk to Beach & Restaurants. Back patio & AC!

Charming Beach Cottage. You can hear the surf at night, outdoor shower for washing off after a day at the beach. Very short walk (even for kids) to the pier, local restaurants, movie theater and the train station. Great location to access all that San Diego and Orange County have to offer.

Why the Owner Chose Oceanside:
* We love Oceanside. It's a great location to travel both north and south to enjoy all that Southern California has to offer. Oceanside is a great beach community with so much to do on the beach, at the harbor and in town. Oceanside is a laid back beach community with great restaurants, breweries, coffee shops and local shops. We love shopping the local farmer's market on Thursday mornings and Sunset market Thursday nights. We love riding the bikes along the strand and taking in the sunset at the harbor or the pier. We also enjoy taking the train down to San Diego for the day and enjoying the culture and entertainment.

The Unique Benefits at this House:
*Beach, Pier, and restaurants are all a very short walk away - even for kids! Private patio in back yard with outdoor seating, large gas grill, and ambiance lighting for a wonderful outdoor family dinner. A true beach house. Great for a family getaway!
