Cozy Private Beach House - Steps from the beach
Summary: Located just a 10-minute walk from beaches, with a 10-person hot tub, and plenty of fun activities like horseshoes and ping pong - this beach house is perfect for your cozy, California stay. Enjoy 1800sqft of four spacious bedrooms, three bathrooms, an outdoor shower, gorgeous living spaces, and plenty of spots to socialize, relax, and unwind. Near Carlsbad Village and Oceanside Pier, you'll have endless options of great restaurants, bars, shopping experiences, and entertainment opportunities.
The Space: As you approach this beautiful beach cottage, you will see a black gate on the driveway that can be opened from the inside. The grassy, turf front yard is fully hedged to provide privacy, which makes this vacation rental a great option for families with small children. Climb 4 stairs to enter the home, and once inside, it is flat unless you are staying in the loft on the second floor or go into the garage from inside the house making it more accessible to elders or children.
Once inside you will see a living room, complete with a full-sized sectional, and lots of windows – a great place to sit down and take advantage of a new smart TV with cable so that you do not miss a game. The kitchen and living room follow an open floor plan that lends itself to family bonding over a board game or a movie. The kitchen comes complete with all the cookware you need to prepare meals, and 3 barstools so those not cooking can gather around and socialize.
The kitchen overlooks the cozy family room. The large L-shaped sectional couch can seat up to 6 and faces the large flat screen SMART TV. We do have cable on the TV as well. We also have Wifi throughout the home.
Off of the kitchen is a door to the backyard. There is a large rectangular table right outside the kitchen. As you walk out you will appear under the covered patio with another outdoor sectional and table seating up to 8. Around the entire patio are two steps down to the grassy, turf backyard, which is fully fenced in.
In the backyard, there is a 10-person hot tub that is available to guests, If the hot tub needs a deeper clean than usual, there will be an additional fee. On the right side of the patio, you will see a horseshoe pit and ping pong table, providing fun activities for all. On the side of the home, are the trash cans and an outdoor shower that is perfect for rinsing off after coming back from the beach. As you continue around the house you end up in the front yard by the garage. Once you enter the garage all of the beach gear: boogie boards, sand toys, beach chairs, vintage bikes to ride to the beach on, and an umbrella are in the garage.
When entering the house from the garage you'll find the washer and dryer. If you continue up the stairs you arrive in the loft that contains another king-size bed, futon, and a private bathroom – perfect for a small family. From the garage, if you walk up 2 stairs into the kitchen you'll find two cozy bedrooms equipped with queen beds. The Master Suite with a king-sized bed and private bathroom is on the right as you walk in the front door. All linens are provided. The bathroom is located in the hallway next to the kitchen for the two bedrooms with queens and boasts a combo shower/tub (also great for the little ones). Tucked into a closet you will find a Pack and Play (portable baby crib), a high chair, and some indoor toys for children.
If you're looking for a cozy beach house with multiple activities, search no more! This beach house by The Sea is a gem. It is clean, quiet, and perfectly adorable!

Great house
Great location. House was well stocked, beds were comfortable, it was nice to have the hot tub and ping pong table and other amenities on the days we didn’t have plans. Amazing hosts and location was walkable to Carlsbad village. The train nearby was loud at times but we had ear plugs and slept fine!

We came to visit family and loved the house! Carlsbad is such a cute little town with great shopping and food options. We enjoyed biking around Oceanside too. The renters were great about communicating through their message and email. Very prompt responses to any questions we had.

Fantastic.
Loved this place. House was extremely clean, well-decorated and stocked with essentials. Fun activities for kiddos and adults. Appreciated all the bikes and beach gear. Jaren was a gracious host, responsive and helpful. Easy walk to nearby restaurants. Beaches that are swimmable for kids require driving.

Gorgeous house!
We stayed here with 2 families with kids—it is such a beautiful house! The beds were super comfy and everything was super clean. We loved hanging out in the back yard and hot tub and it was just a short walk to a yummy diner around the corner. We’d definitely stay here again.

What a great house
We stayed at Jaren's place for 8 days and had a great time. It is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. The kitchen is stocked with everything that you need for cooking at the house.
We had 2 teenagers along with 2 sets of grandparents and the house easily accommodated everyone.
The hot tub was awesome along with all the games in the backyard. My daughters loved to cozy up in the egg chairs on the back porch.
Jaren was great about responding to our questions and gave us some tips around the area as well. We would definitely stay in this house again. Thanks Jaren!

An Oceanside Treasure!
Jared made the whole process easy and pleasant. Great communication, house was spotless and nicely decorated, many extras provided. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay; 7 adults and 2 children. The loft w/ bathroom was perfect for the young family of four, as the 2 kids (under 6) shared the futon. I can't think of any way it could have been better!

Great house
We had a great time here. House is spacious with plenty of bedrooms. Quite a walk to the beach so we drove there with the kids. Bikes were a great addition as we would bike to beach to watch sunsets. No complaints. Hot tub is huge. Backyard has tons of room for kids to play.

Relaxing spot for the beach
The house is beautiful and it was a great place to come back and relax after a day at the beach. Communication with Jaren was great. The loft was so much fun for our 13 year old who got to create her own little teen hangout space.
Absolutely no complaints and I would recommend to anyone!
