Updated Mid-Century beach house --10 minute walk to the beach

Relaxing in the hot tub, grilling on the patio, roasting s'mores around the fire pit, cooking a feast in the beautifully renovated kitchen, strolling to the beach to surf or take in the sunset -- experience the San Diego dream in a Carlsbad beach house. We have beach chairs, surfboards, body boards, a portable BBQ, ice chests and beach towels for your use. Tamarack Beach, one of the premier surf breaks in San Diego, is just a 10 minute walk. Enjoy our foosball table and weight bench in our furnished garage. Our house is west of the 5 freeway and just a mile from all the shops and restaurants of Carlsbad village and a 10 minute drive to Lego Land, the Outlet Mall, and Flower Fields.

Damon was a wonderful host. We had to relocate during water restoration in our home. Damon was willing to work with me on the dates, even as I was trying to get insurance approval. The location is perfect for the beach or walking to the village for dinner. We had a wonderful stay.

Amazing Carlsbad house

We had such a great long weekend. We were there with my parents and my two toddlers to explore San Diego a bit. The house had everything we could have ever needed and was so clean. Great location - so close to the beach and Carlsbad Village. And we loved the hot tub and grill! Thank you again Damon for a great time.

Family vacation

My family had a wonderful time at this beach house. The backyard was relaxing and had enough room for kids to play as well as a nice bbq. The neighborhood is quiet, walking distance to the beach, garage was stocked with beach chairs, boards, and umbrella. Beds were comfortable too! Wish we could have stayed longer :)

Wow! This was such a magical, cozy, and inviting house. The cleanliness was impeccable and they provided everything you expect and more. Truly a home away from home. The walk to the beach was very pleasant and the surrounding area has everything you need. We appreciate the dedication it takes to host a home like this one. Certainly one of the best rentals we have stayed at! We will keep it on our favorite list for the future. Can’t wait to visit again.

Carlsbad VRBO

My family of 3 adults and 3 kids enjoyed our 4 night stay at this Carlsbad VRBO. The location was convenient to the Beach and the village. The kids enjoyed being able to run around in the fenced back yard, the game room, and especially the hot tub. Damon was an attentive host and available by phone. Highly recommended. Thank you.

Summer Get Away

I stayed at the home for five days with my three grandchildren and was impressed on how well stocked the home was. The backyard was big enough for them to play in and although rarely home during the day, we enjoyed the open space and decor. I would definitely rent again.

Perfect beach house for families

Great place with a beautiful backyard/outdoor space and easy 10 minute walk to the beach. It ended up being just a tad too far to carry beach things with kids in tow, so we ended up driving, whi h was not a big deal at all. The house had plenty of space for 8 of us, beach chairs and towels, firepit outside and a a great kitchen/dining space. There's even a piano that was a nice treat to be able play while on vacation. Great vacation spot!

Fun Fun Fun

We have rented many places through VRBO, and I have to say this was probably our favorite. We had 4 adults and 3 children under 12 for an early Thanksgiving with family. This home feels like a comfortable family home, it had funky fun decor, great location with an easy walk to the beach, lots of games, a huge table for family gathering, great backyard for relaxing and super comfortable beds. The kitchen was well equipped with a great layout. The kids especially loved the foosball table in the garage.
