Welcome to our family's beach house! Built in 1948 and cherished by our family for four generations, this home has been the setting for countless vacations, holidays, birthdays, and unforgettable beach days. We've thoughtfully updated it with modern comforts while preserving the relaxed charm that has made it such a special place for nearly 80 years.

Unlike many Pacific Beach vacation rentals, this is a detached single-family home—not a condo or apartment. You'll enjoy the privacy of your own home along with one of the area's rare oversized private backyards, all while being just a 3-minute walk to both Pacific Beach and Mission Bay.

Whether you're planning a family vacation, traveling with grandparents, or enjoying time with friends, we hope you'll feel right at home.

THE HOME

Our bright 1,400-square-foot home combines the character of a classic California beach cottage with the conveniences guests appreciate today. Hardwood floors, comfortable furnishings, an updated kitchen, remodeled bathrooms, and inviting gathering spaces make it easy to settle in and relax.

Because everything is on one level, the home works well for families with young children, grandparents, and anyone who prefers to avoid stairs.

Whether you're cooking dinner together after a day at the beach or relaxing in the living room with family and friends, we hope you'll enjoy the home as much as our family has over the years.

YOUR PRIVATE BACKYARD

One of the features guests mention most is the backyard.

Large private yards are surprisingly uncommon in Pacific Beach, especially this close to the ocean. Whether you're returning from the beach, enjoying dinner outdoors, or simply relaxing with family, this space quickly becomes everyone's favorite gathering place.

Features include:

• 15' × 45' furnished patio
• 25' × 30' grassy lawn
• Gas grill
• Comfortable outdoor dining and shaded seating
• Outdoor shower for rinsing off after the beach

Enjoy coffee on the patio in the morning, let the kids play on the lawn during the afternoon, then relax outside after another beautiful San Diego sunset.

BEACH GEAR INCLUDED

We've tried to provide many of the extras that make a beach vacation easier so you can spend less time packing and more time enjoying your stay.

Available for your use:

• Beach chairs
• Beach umbrellas
• Boogie boards
• Sand toys
• Folding utility wagon for carrying beach gear—or making an easy trip to the nearby grocery store

After a day at the beach, simply rinse off in the outdoor shower before heading inside.

• Mission Beach Boardwalk (3 minutes)
• Restaurants
• Coffee shops
• Grocery stores

A HOME WITH HEART

Our family built this home in 1948, and it has remained a special gathering place ever since. Every generation has made memories here—from children learning to swim in Mission Bay to evenings spent together after watching the sunset over the Pacific.

We're grateful to be able to share this special place with our guests and hope your family creates wonderful memories here as well.

GUEST EXPERIENCE

You'll enjoy the privacy of having the entire home to yourselves while knowing our friendly local property managers live next door if you need assistance or recommendations during your stay. They're available when needed but always respectful of your privacy.

    We had a great vacation at this property. It is comfortable, has a great backyard, and a very short walking distance to everything at PB as advertised. Dave was a great host, very conveniently next door, and was very responsive with a minor drain issue. We would absolutely stay here again!

    This place is a true Pacific Beach gem. The house is perfect for a stay at the beach. The house has everything you need and more. Beach equipment to cooking at home but who wants to do that when so many restaurants are within walking distance. Check out the coffee shop on the corner. Such a sweet shop. The beds are so comfortable I had to see what kind of mattress they are. Thank you for an amazing stay.

    Perfect location, everything within walking distance. Very kid friendly, didn’t have to worry if my one year old was going to get into anything he shouldn’t or possibly break something. House is stocked with everything you could need to go hangout at the beach. Owner is very communicative and responds promptly. Would absolutely book here again.

    We have rented many properties over the years and this was, by far, the best! Everything from our communication with Dave, the property manager, to the cleanliness of the house to the perfect location. This house has it all! Anything you think you need… it is here! This house is fully stocked for cooking, fun at the beach and relaxing. The location was everything…being just a two minute walk from both the bay and the ocean. I can’t say enough!

    Wow! We loved this home! 5 min walk to beach & restaurants but quiet at night. Well stocked with everything you need - beach chairs, umbrella, balls, kids toys, boogie boards, and a wagon to get it all there. House is clean and well taken care of. We didn’t want to leave!
