- "The cottage is very cute and included all the amenities for a beach vacation- chairs, towels, bikes, etc. We highly recommend it for the location too. Deanna's communications are very prompt." - "Lovely small cottage with everything needed for a comfortable stay. The large cottage was a bit closer than expected, but each had it's own outside area with chairs, table and bbq. The owners were very responsive to questions and any problems that came up and it was so very nice to have a shared washer and dryer, bicycles and beach equipment for our use. The Village of Carlsbad and it's boardwalk and beach were a 20+ minute walk, but with the bikes it only took 10-12 minutes. I highly recommend this cottage."

The beach vibe was so fun, we loved it! The only small confusion was with check in and check out. There were no instructions and we had to do trial and error with door locks and property access, etc. Would suggest a welcome manual." - "Awesome place! It is exactly how the description reads❤️"

- "We loved our stay here. The house was beautiful and the host was great with communication. Also, great location. Easy walk to the village and many restaurants." - "We rented the cottage for a month. Our daughter, son-in-law and their almost 2 year old joined us for 10 days. There was plenty of room for all of us and our dog (who loved the front yard). The cottage was clean, well stocked and the beds are comfy; one of the best features is that it is easily walkable to the shops and restaurants in Carlsbad Village which we did several times a day. The hosts, Deanna and Craig are awesome. They were very responsive to all of our questions and had many great suggestions; we cannot say enough good things about them. We would return in a heartbeat."
This wonderfully redone historic cottage, just five houses from the water (near arguably the best beach in Carlsbad-“The Point”) was once owned by one of the true founders of Carlsbad. Originally built in Carlsbad village in the 1920’s, the house was moved to its current location in 1933, by Ms. Mary Christensen. We have artfully remade the space while preserving elements of the vintage charm of this Sears and Roebuck Craftsman catalogue-ordered cottage. Book now! You’ll love being here.
