Beach weekend
My husband, son and I spent a long weekend in OB. The house was in a great location, easy access to everywhere we wanted to go. The house was well stocked, very clean, and the owner was easy to work with and had great communication. Would highly recommend a stay here.

Awesome! Loved it
This place is in a great location to almost everything Ocean Beach has to offer. It was perfect for two adults and two small dogs. From the moment we walked in we were blown away with the interior decor and the cleanliness of the place. all kitchen utensils/pots and pans were provided. This place is kept in a top-notch condition. And the outdoor spaces are just perfect for this property. The pictures are very accurate that were provided when we booked. And we really really enjoyed our stay there. During our stay, property management reached out to us to make sure everything is going smoothly. And if we needed anything, to please let them know. (I was impressed, great customer service) Hopefully in the future, we can rent this place again when we return to San Diego/Ocean Beach.

Cute little place close to everything!
Super cute and clean little bungalow with a short walk to the beach, restaurants, coffee, bars. It is in the flight path of the airport so there are lots of planes but it didn’t bother us. I had to work during the trip so I booked this property in part because it had a little office space for doing Zoom calls, just know that the office is actually the master closet lol. We would totally stay here again!

Great place with one OB negative
We loved the rental. Cute -- nice outdoor space. Everything was clean and comfortable. The only negative has to do with the Ocean Beach location -- right in the flight path, and really loud. Fortunately planes don't fly (usually) between 11 and 7, so we could sleep undisturbed. If you wake easily and want to sleep beyond 7, think twice. As for us, we'd stay there again happily.

OB Visit
Visiting our son in OB. The cottage was lovely and very well furnished. The location was great and having the parking spot in the driveway was a huge bonus. We’ll definitely plan to stay again in the future.
