| We loved it!! There were six of us in our party and the owners were thoughtful enough to bring us extra beach chairs, towels, and even snacks so we had enough for all six! |

| This was a great little cottage very close to the beach and with all the amenities we needed. No real complaints and we would definately stay here again. The owners were very nice and even left little snackies to welcome us! |

| We had a lovely stay in the little yellow cottage by the beach at the end of July. The beds were very comfortable, but the best thing was being just a block from the beach and so close to Sea World. We had a great time. Thank you! |

We were pleasantly surprised! The price is reasonable, which led us to be skeptical. We arrived and the place was hot as the a/c hadn't been turned on yet and it was late in the afternoon. We turned the a/c on and went to dinner, by the time we got back it was cool.
It was our first trip to San Diego and we were not accustomed to the weather there. In San Diego you get at least 2 completely different types of weather: coastal and inland. Inland is hot in July, 20 degrees hotter then coastal weather. This place was loacated in the coolest neighborhood around, Ocean Beach, which is of course in the coastal weather. The weather is amazing, we were there a week and never any rain, always sunny and high of 78 or 77 everyday with a nice cool breeze. Perfect for swiming, golf, etc.
The cottage itself was small, but it had everything advertised plus many extra that provided a very nice touch! It had two legitimate bedrooms and two queen beds that were VERY comfortable. There was some sort of pillowtop mattress on there, it was nice! Even the pull out futon in living room which we utilized as a bed as well was way beyond your typical uncomfortable futon. It was actually a extra long bed when it was converted and it had an extra section that could be attached to be a perma footrest when set in a sitting position: VERY nice! They even put out snacks in a basket on the table in living room, and some drinks in the refrigerator. There were plastic plates, bowls, cups, silverware, dishes, beach toys, beach towels, regular towels, etc, a lot of unexpected extras! There is of course a very nice full kitches, and to top it off a high end washer dryer set on top of each other.
We will prolly be coming back bnext year, this place was PERFECT. |

| We came down with our 6-week old baby to have some alone time and bonding time and it was wonderful! The owners were very attentive to our new-baby needs and the place was very cozy and clean. Thanks for all the "freebie" snacks and drinks, it was very refreshing to have when we got there after our 3 hour drive with the baby. We will be back next year for our daughter's 1-year birthday! |

Great place; we were lucky to have good neighbors;
bring your bikes, everything is very close. It is small
but well layed out. My only 'complaint' is the beds
were too soft - everything else was perfect!! |

| The cottage was perfect. Exactly as we pictured it to be . Only a couple of suggestions would be to have a few more kid friendly cups, we only found glass or coffee mugs which are not the best for a 3 and 4 yr old, and maybe mention about the dogs if they are still there . We got a bit nervous about that with two small children. Tobi was awesome and answered any questions we had , her husband even came over our frist night to help get the internet working on my computer ... thanks for that you guys are awesome. We are already looking into our trip for next year at the same place . |

| We rented this property for a week over Memorial Day. We had a great time in Ocean Beach and surrounding towns. The cottage had everything we needed and was very comfortable. We were thrilled that the owners accepted large dogs and ours had a blast. The street was a bit busy with foot traffic (walkers, bikes, skateboarders, rollerbladers) and they do seem to be passing by at late hours throughout the night. The first night was a little rough, as one of our dogs is a guard dog and wasn't used to the noises, but she got used to it. The town, beach and weather was wonderful. Enjoyed some delicious food at Shades restaurant in town. This cottage was so close to everything, wonderful location. The parking space is a must have in this town! We would definitely stay here again. |

This place was great and most important, it passed the "my-wife-loved-it" test. Very close to beach, restaurants, and shopping so we didn't have to drive anywhere. We have a 4-month old and a 4 1/2 year old and they both had a great time.
Everything in the cottage was clean which we were very happy about because my 4-month old will pick up anything from the floor and eat it. My wife loved the washer/dryer. The place has A/C but we didn't even need it because we could keep the doors open and let the ocean breeze in.
We will be back! |

This clean, well appointed cottage is in a very nice
location. Our young family of five really enjoyed
being able to walk to EVERYTHING we wanted to do
at Ocean Beach! It was also nice to have an
assigned parking spot to return to when we visited
other attractions San Diego has to offer. This is
definitely a place we would return to again. |

| We loved the "yellow house", as my girls called it. It was very clean and the beds were super comfy. The shower was a little awkward but it served its purpose. It worked well for my family of 4 (myself, my husband and 2 toddlers) A group any larger would not be as comfortable. |

and movies were appreciated. It really felt like a home

| Cozy cottage! It was everything I'd hoped for. Moving to San Diego with 2 dogs made this a great transitional arrangement. Kitchen had everything I needed (including tupperware!). Shelves in the bedrooms would be a great touch (no closets - tough to keep living out of a suitcase). GREAT location. Assigned parking was a FABulous stress relief. Snacks and drinks were a nice touch - snacks were gone in a heartbeat (whoops). Amazing price. My stay here isn't up yet, but I had to share. |

| Thank you so much. Our family had a wonderful stay at your beach cottage. When we come back for another visit to San Diego we will definitely check if your place is available. We loved how close the cottage was to Ocean Beach, the Dog Beach at Ocean Beach, and Newport Ave was a great street to walk down for food and shopping. Thank you for your hospitality. |

| We stayed during Spring Break in March and absolutely loved it! The TV with DVD was great for chilly nights and being about a block from both the beach and restaurants was spectacular. We took 2 dogs and found OB to be very dog friendly - we took them to dinner on the patio with us at a couple different places. Having a well equipped kitchen was very handy and the furnishings are comfortable and updated. Would stay again and highly recommend to others! |

| What a nice place to stay! Two blocks to coffee (Pirates Cove walk-up) and groceries. Two blocks to the main drag and great burgers (Hodad's). A short walk to dog beach which is the main reason we chose this cottage. We and our canine son enjoyed a carefree vacation. |

| Great little cottage with the perfect location! You can rent bikes and go to Mission Beach & Crystal Pier. Take the 923 bus off Cable St. & go downtown ($1.75 transfers you all day). You can even bus it to Old Town. OB has good food priced very reasonable. The waves & sunsets are just a block away. The owners have insured you a good nights' sleep on the best of beds! If you rent it, please take care of it. I'm already planning my return! |
