Citrus Cottage in Old Town Orange near Chapman U & Disneyland

Spacious stand-alone guest cottage in the heart of Old Town Orange. It’s a great place for parents of Chapman students to stay while visiting their kids. Within walking distance to the Circle with so many great restaurants and bars that it makes it difficult to choose where to go. The bright and airy décor reflects the charm of Old Town Orange. Street parking is available. Arrive to something refreshing in the refrigerator and wake up to hot coffee.

Orange is loaded with history. Walking around the streets enjoying all the unique home styles is part of what makes our neighborhood interesting, with most of the homes built a 100 years ago. Located minutes away from Disneyland, 15 minutes from John Wayne Airport, 20 minutes to Newport Beach, 3 minutes from Chapman University and a short walk to great dining in the Circle.

Old Towne Orange is a great walking town. We are conveniently located off of the 55 Freeway. If visiting Orange County for the first time you are centrally located to almost everything.

The little home can accommodate up to three people but it is best suited for 2. Not suited for small children.

Please note.... we have two units on the property, a front house and a back cottage. The cottage is the one available for stays. We are in the front house and available if needed.
The City of Orange has a newly adapted policy on Short Term Rentals (10-01-2021). Each reservation will be required to add on a 10% Lodging Tax, similar to the local hotel or motel reservations. This fee goes directly to the city. If the fee is not collected at the time of the reservation it will be required prior to checking in. Unfortunately, we are required to charge this and wish there was a way around it considering we have always tried to run a "mom and pop" type rental. We are licensed, permitted, insured and pay taxes on our rental unit. Considering all of this, our hope is that you will still stay in our cottage and get that feeling that you are staying with extended family while away from home and fully enjoy all the charm that Orange has to offer.

SUCH an amazing property!

This was the best stocked property I have ever stayed in! And the host was lovely, super nice and offering help whenever needed! We will definitely plan to stay here again for a longer stay next time. We walked into downtown Orange, it was about a 10-15 minute walk, all on flat streets in a beautiful neighborhood!

Beautiful, Quiet & Cozy!

Christina & Daniel are the perfect hosts! Their beautiful cottage sits behind their home in a quiet neighborhood blocks from the circle. The cottage was cozy, clean & wonderfully stocked with more than what we needed for our weekend stay. Keurig, water, breakfast bars, hairdryer, nice linens & bedding, books, puzzles, etc. We slept well & enjoyed our morning coffee while looking out at their peaceful backyard. We honestly could not have asked for anything more! Looking forward to our next stay.

Citrus Cottage

Our nearly 2 week stay at Citrus Cottage was terrific. The home was lovely and equipped with everything we could have wanted. We have been staying at VRBO properties for decades and this was one of the absolute best. Hosts Christina and Daniel were readily available and immediately responsive to questions or requests.

Perfection!

We had a wonderful 3 night stay at Citrus Cottage, and were sad to leave. Christina and Daniel are amazing hosts - the cottage was quiet, clean, well stocked, and close to Old Towne and Chapman U. So much love and attention to detail went into this gem of a place. The bed was super comfy too. Can’t wait to return!

This property was just perfect for a 3 week stay! Christina was so welcoming & has thought of absolutely everything that you could possibly need! The backyard was private & perfect for a morning cup of coffee in the comfy chairs. The neighborhood was so cute & just a short walk to Orange Circle where there’s tons of restaurants & shopping. I look forward to my next visit!

Perfect!!!! The cottage is close to Old Town Orange for a wonderful stay that only requires walking and very short Uber rides. The hosts are very friendly and responsive to communications. They provide almost everything you might want or unexpectedly need during your stay. I stayed at this perfect cottage twice and will always check on its availability when I visit Orange CA.
