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 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 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.

Wonderful place in South Oceanside!

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. The house is as advertised and the location was amazing with easy access to restaurants and the beach. We were very sad to leave and would love to stay again!

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!

Excellent Stay!

We enjoyed a family vacation and this home was a great choice. Communication with owner was fantastic and the property was very clean and inviting. Quiet neighborhood along with a garage to park our car was a nice option. All amenities in great working order and we enjoyed evenings playing with our kiddos in the spacious back yard and after they went to bed, wine time for us in the back was a nice way to end a fun day at the beach. Highly recommend this rental!

Perfect home for a Beach Getaway

The house is just the right size for a perfect vacation. There were just two of us but four would be easily accommodated (more if necessary). Everything you need is there. The back yard is wonderful with flowering bushes and inviting chairs. The location is great. The closest beach is about a half mile walk but you can drive part way. There are several beaches close by. Finally, the hosts were extremely helpful and pleasant.

Fall Break Trip Oceanside

We had a lovely time staying here! We ate breakfast in the beautiful backyard. Packed up our lunch and headed to the beach every day. Then cleaned off the sand and headed out to the street fair in Oceanside and other great restaurants each evening. Debbie was the perfect host and her beach house lived up to our expectations! All in all, a great memory!!
