About this house rental

Enjoy the vintage charm and venerable character of this beautiful & historic Ocean Beach cottage. This lovely 1920s Craftsman-Style Bungalow located in the heart of Ocean Beach is a certified historical landmark and was one of the very first cottages built in OB! Updates have been done where needed but most everything is original.

The house and lavishly landscaped property have been meticulously maintained and cared for. The house has two full levels and you will have access to the entire main level/top floor complete with two bedrooms; one with a queen Sealy Posturepedic bed and the other with a full size. The bathroom has a large tub and shower available. There is a sunny, cozy living room with comfortable seating, built-in bookcases, and a gas fireplace. The ample vintage kitchen with breakfast nook features a fully functional 1940s Chambers gas stove for all your cooking needs. Built-in cabinetry offers plenty of space for your food items and a large sink with garbage disposal aids in making clean-up a cinch. There is a mudroom between the kitchen and back deck for hanging coats and removing shoes. Relax on the front porch, back deck, garden, or patio area complete with al fresco dining. Delight in a peaceful moment in the swing chairs hanging in the shade of the 50-year-old Japanese Red Pine tree while butterflies and hummingbirds flutter about. Or barbecue on the Weber gas grille surrounded by a gorgeous fenced-in yard with fruit trees, grapevines, native cacti, succulents, and other indigenous flora. Enjoy the convenience of the outdoor laundry area.

The property is just blocks from several beaches including a local "secret" spot. Hit the shops and bars, grab brunch, or dine in one of the dozens of wonderful restaurants on and around Newport Ave. Stroll or take in the sunset on Ocean Beach Pier. And...don't forget to check out the OB Farmer's Market & Street Fair every Wednesday from 4:00-8:00 pm!

6.0 / 10.0Average·Mar 2025
Host forgot to give instructions to access the property. Expedia canceled /refunded my reservation the next morning when they could not reach the host either. From my tour of the property after the fact: Historical cottage charm; old energy and vibes. Coffee available. Beds/pillows comfortable, but not adequate space to open a carry-on and unpack. Living room / seating area okay; sofa needs to be larger than a loveseat. Kitchen is adorable with original gas stove and ocean view. Do not stay at this property if you enjoy pristine bathroom conditions / a showering experience--a lot to be done there. Original glass and windows are charming, but if you are HSP, have misophonia, or any kind of noise sensitivity not stay at this cottage b/c it is in airlines flight path from 600am until late-night. Property is full of beautiful vegetation, fruit trees, raised beds, birds. Ocean view from balcony off the kitchen. Cottage is walkable to beach and the main drag
