It is incredibly quiet, despite being just a few blocks from the beach, and restaurants & shops. The front porch is completely enclosed with windows & door, creating a "buffer" between street and the living/dining area. The backyard is a wonderful, tree-surrounded courtyard. The two bedrooms are fairly private and separated from each other. Communication with property management was easy; questions answered quickly.I highly recommend this house! ##### Denise R.

The owner had so many upgrades including new bedding, new refrigerator, beautifully landscaped with flowers, very comfy new couch, and so many special touches. Upon entering, the cottage was was glistening clean, and all the amenities promised were there. I was even able to conduct some Zoom meetings, as the internet was high speed. Even though weather was unusually hot for Laguna, the AC kept us very comfortable and cool. We could easily walk to all our favorite spots and the beach closest to the cottage was perfect. I highly recommend, and hope to visit again. ##### Trish G.

This location cannot be beat! Very short walking distance to beach, breakfast cafe, restaurants and grocery. Beach is beautiful and not crowded in the middle of July! Kids loved the surf and sand. Backyard patio was perfect for nightly grilling and kitchen was fully equipped for the task. We had a minor appliance problem and the owners resolved the problem within hours! Try the House of Big Fish for great views and dinner. We will definitely come back. ##### Jennifer P. This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 4/10 Poor Nov 6, 2012 #### A little disappointing This property needs work. The towel bars are missing in the bathrooms, the faucet in the sink swivels when you try to use it, the outdoor lighting did not work, and the brick patio in back has collapsed and is downright dangerous. Overall the house does not appear to be well cared for. The owner's local assistant was very nice - tried to get the lighting fixed for us, and brought over candles when that was not possible. The owner was a bit less cooperative - seemed almost offended that I would want to have a number to call in case of emergency. The location was good for us, the wireless internet worked well, and it generally met our needs, but I would not choose to stay there again. ### 4/10 Poor #### PARMIS M. Feb 18, 2020 Liked: Location Disliked: Communication #### Cute house, but horrible experience with the owner I've never left a bad review anywhere, but the owner of this property left me no choice. She made us get property damage coverage in order to rent the house, and then over 2 months later she opened a claim against us alleging that we had caused a significant amount of damage. Not only did she not contact me about it, but then never answered my email when I reached out to her to try to figure out what the problem was. We not cause any damage and instead we left the house very neat and clean, so I still don't know what her claim was for. Also, the kitchen cabinets smell badly of mildew so you can't put food in them. ##### PARMIS M. Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Lisa T. May 30, 2019 #### Good location, but house too old and dirty for my family. Overall we had a great time in Laguna Beach, but this cottage was a bit disappointing to my family. First of all the cottage is old, and has an old dusty attic smell. The house could use a thorough cleaning. We had to wash all the sheets and comforter covers as there was questionable spots on the comforter covers and it appeared they had not been cleaned. We also had to run dishes through dishwasher as their were dirty glasses in the cupboard and the shelves were caked in dust. We had to clean out the microwave and refrigerator as they had clearly not been cleaned in awhile. The beds were comfortable enough. Privacy was a bit of an issue as not all windows are covered making it easy for neighbors to peer in. The light in the shower located by the kitchen, is a safety hazard with wires exposed. The proximity to beach, shops, and restaurants was the best part about this cottage. Next time we'll stay in hotel. ##### Lisa T. Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cara H. Oct 2, 2018 #### The location cannot be beat! I stayed here in September with my boyfriend, and we had a lovely time. The location of this home cannot be beat - it's one block from the main street, where there's plenty of shops to eat, shop around, and rent water sports equipment. There's also very little road / outside noise, because it's set back one block from the main street (see the map), and the whole lot is covered with beautiful trees. The patio area is lovely, and a great space to enjoy a morning cup of coffee. The only downsides (in my opinion) - the kitchen isn't well stocked. If you're staying with more than two people, you'll have to do dishes every day (possibly after every meal), because there's only a set of 4 bowls/plates/side plates. Secondly, there are no screens to any of the windows. There's definitely something charming about having all the windows wide open, to let the breeze come in - but from a security standpoint, and from a bugs standpoint, it wasn't as nice as it seems. To the owner - when we were there, the ceiling fan in the front bedroom was not working. The light would turn on, but the fan itself was not working. ##### Cara H.
