Smells terrible
There’s a terrible mold like smell at this property. Contacted the Property manager multiple times. They offered to move me to a different property that was not anywhere near close to the beach like this one. I asked to get refunded the remainder of my state as I would like to have left, but they never returned my calls. I called four times and each time was told that the property owner will contact me and I was never contracted.

Ideal Carlsbad property for us
Location and layout of living quarters (for 3 adults) were ideal. Key code and WiFi code were incorrect in initial notification, but property manager was very helpful and responsive to all our concerns. Thermostat needs adjustment - unnecessary A/C for hours resulted in our discomfort and surely great cost to the owners. Property very well equipped and good for families.

Great for families with little kids
We would love to stay here again. The layout of the property is a little weird but it worked for our purposes (3 adults and 4 kids ages 1, 3, 6 & 8). Nice outdoor areas. Totally walkable to the beach and located near the beach ramp, not the stairs, so it’s way easier with strollers and wagons. I couldn’t figure out the high chair so that was annoying but no big deal. The bathroom located in the main bedroom is nice but the shower is SUPER small so if you are a larger person that may be an issue, but the 2nd bathroom is “normal” size with a tub. The backyard was great... backs up to a hotel but we didn’t have any noise issues and it was nice that the kids could play in a secure area. We didn’t expect a view and we didn’t get one... but this is located in a beautiful little neighborhood and, for Carlsbad, I really don’t think you can beat the location. If we go back I would bring 2 tension-based baby gates to make the front yard a little easier for me with the babies.... otherwise no complaints. A carbon monoxide detector was beeping when we first got there but the property managers were there in a flash to take care of it. One of the fans wasn’t working when we got there but they took care of that too - close enough to the water that I slept great with a blanket - there is no ac but it was still very pleasant. Short walk to Carlsbad Villiage - did it with all the kids multiple times. Overall, loved it!

Fantastic Location, Cozy House
We had a great stay at this rental. The location is phenomenal! Not only proximity to the beach, but the beach access is key! Just around the corner and across the street and you’re right there! So fast and convenient. Essentially everything you could need in the town of Carlsbad is easily within walking distance. As mentioned in several reviews, there is no AC. While we were staying, the highs were mid 70s. At this temperature, we were comfortable. I think it could’ve been a different story if the highs were mid 80s, which is not too common for Carlsbad. A few things that we enjoyed that was not advertised in the listing: several beach chairs, umbrellas and sand toys are avail to use, there is a fire pit and a few logs were provided, large comfortable blow up mattress is avail in unit, lots of towels are provided. Things I suggest you bring with you: extra trash bags, your own ground coffee if you plan on having coffee in the unit, fire starter log and extra wood if staying more than one night, extra paper towels, travel size laundry detergent. Overall, this place really has everything you could want: location, parking, security, convenience, cozy and well appointed home.

Great location
This was a great house that was close to town and to the beach. The house was very clean with a large kitchen. This company was wonderful to work with and in constant communication with me. I would absolutely book with McLain Properties again for future trips.

Location, location, location!
Great location! They provided lots of towels which was so nice! There are two things that would have made our stay more comfortable. Air conditioning, even though the temperature was in the 70’s the house was a bit stuffy. The Queen sized bed mattress needs to be replaced it sinks down in the middle.

Great location!
Loved the location...a couple blocks to the beach and the Village. The layout of the house is a little weird. The easiest way to get to the back detached bedroom is thru the master. Otherwise you walk around to the side of the house and through the kitchen. No TV in the master but nice TVs in the other rooms. Great setup in the kitchen. All of the dishes, pots and pans you could possibly need and plastic dishes for kids. We did quite a bit of cooking so I was happy that the pots and pans were good quality. The was one small bar soap in each bathroom...luckily I saw other reviews and brought some. Nice assortment of linens, towels and blankets. This is my second time renting with Mclain properties and I will definitely check their rentals first for my next CA trip.
