Beautifully Accommodated Home

This was a cozy beautiful accommodating home. It had everything me and family needed. It was closed to the beach and to everything. The property manager Paul was easy to communicate. He responded right away to my messages. I will highly recommend this home to anyone looking to stay with dogs in the Carlsbad area. The fully fenced backyard was a game changer for my dogs. Karina

Cozy

Furniture and beds were comfy. The house offered everything we possibly could’ve needed for our stay including some toys for our three-year-old. Relatively quiet if you’re inside, but close to the freeway so there is noise. We didn’t walk to anything in the neighborhood, but drove a couple miles toward the ocean where there were many wonderful coffee shops, icee cream, restaurants and things to see and do. Overall, a nice home to spend the night.

Great backyard for dogs! Cute cabin

We traveled with our two dogs. Hard to find a great place for them like this. Really appreciated the beautiful back, front and side yards. Even had a doggie door. Could park in the enclosed yard. Property is cute and well maintained. Lots of nice little welcoming touches. And great support from Paul, the host:

SoCal Cottage

This cottage is cute and very clean inside out. The kitchen is well equipped with new/clean appliances and units. Living room is very cozy and enough room to just relax and watch tv. The backyard is well kept with so much privacy (screen and plants). So much space for my dog to run around. Gate and parking access is a plus. Location is close to everything, beach and pier is a few mins away. Paul and Kathleen were great hosts. Looking forward to future booking. Thank you!

Spotless, well-equipped home

The place was spotless and had everything we needed to cook our meals. The fenced in yard was perfect for letting our dog out. As others mentioned, the area is not great but we didn’t have any problems. We just didn’t take our dog for walks in the neighborhood. And there is a lot of traffic noise but you don’t hear much once inside so it wasn’t an issue. It was a short drive to the nicer part of town and the beach. And the freeway is right there so it’s easy to get anywhere you want to go. The ac was a lifesaver as we went during a heat wave. There were fans as well so we were able to keep things comfortable throughout our stay.

Super Hidden Gem

My family and I stayed here so I could attend my GIA lab in Carlsbad. At first we were a little nervous driving up to the address. But once we were inside of the gated property we were happy. The property is clean and well kept. The inside was everything we needed. Would stay again! Definitely!

Hidden Gem mins from Ocean

You would never know this corner of heaven was hidden behind all the lush plants and flowered gates. The house is gorgeous and the kitchen was fabulous. Everything you could need and even things I forgot were provided in the cabinet. The outdoor space was our big hit. We loved the citrus tree and banana trees and nice fire pit area. All the beds were comfy and the best part was the cozy soft blankets and having a fan in each room. This was only my 2nd time renting thru vrbo but I hope they are all awesome like Paul’s listing. He was a fantastic host as well. Left us s’mores stuff & delicious bottle of wine for my daughters birthday. We will definitely book again in the future!

Bang for your buck!

Clean, modern, two bedroom one bath home. Has a fenced patio to hang out as well as fenced yard for dogs to roam. Kind of a rough neighborhood but we had no trouble for our week stay. Trash cans were taken out too which was nice. Other than needing a new couch, property worked great for us! Fully stocked for all your needs and host is great!
