Situated right in the middle of the action, our close-to-everything 1930's cottage has been carefully designed by Jeni Maus- owner of Found Rental Co. Inspired by relaxed beach living. Jeni pulled fun pieces, old, worn objects, and fresh, clean surfaces to create an extremely comfy, relaxed, yet refined, beach house where anyone could catch their breath and enjoy a simpler time away from the hectic norm.
Nothing beats waking up and seeing the beautiful morning light on the ocean peeking through the ginkgo trees. Additionally, sunset from the porch is equally relaxing... or just walk a block and enjoy the amazing sunset on the sand for full immersion!
The backyard is nice sized with two lounge chairs, a fire pit with outdoor couches and a dining area to enjoy meals al fresco- and it's right outside the new kitchen!
Bring bikes to explore the area or simply walk everywhere- no need for a car with this location! Across the street is a grocery store, the village and Hip District are both about ¼ mi walk for tons of great restaurants and attractions.
Additionally, a block away is a surf and bike rental shop for all your activities- and safely store your toys in the fenced yard or garage.
Laguna has a ton of physically demanding (if you choose) things to do outdoors and the Maus Haus is in the middle of them all. Hiking trails (up on exposed ridges or down in valleys under the oak canopies) are a short drive away - or take the free trolly car to the trailhead! If you're a mountain biker you already know about the Laguna Beach Mtb history of producing a number of top pros over the years- trails range from beginner to expert in beautiful natural environments. Add to these, kayaking, surfing, swimming, snorkeling, etc and you'll go home in better shape and more connected with the earth than when you arrived.
Not-so-active things to do are a plenty as well! We have so many eclectic shops and art galleries in addition to the famous Sawdust Festival, Saturday farmers market, Pageant of the Masters, etc etc.
The Maus Haus has four off-street parking spaces not counting the garage. And there's an outdoor shower to rinse off after an ocean swim!

    The Maus Haus is absolutely beautiful! It looks even better than the photos. The house has everything you need for a perfect Laguna vacation. The beds are incredibly comfortable. The house has many comfortable spots to relax indoors and outdoors. The location is walkable to beaches, shops and restaurants. Joel is very responsive to questions and provides all the information needed regarding the house. We will definitely stay again!

    The absolute perfect home for our spring break stay in Laguna. Centrally located, blocks from the beach, incredibly communicative and helpful host and stunningly designed home. We hope to be back!

    The house was absolutely charming inside. Beautiful decor, exquisite linens. Very nice location - close to the beach easy walking to all the shops and restaurants. On a busy corner though but didn't bother us!

    It’s just stunning!The furnishings, bedding, linens, and lighting were incredibly high-quality and thoughtfully and beautifully curated, creating a welcoming, warm, cozy, and relaxing ambience. Even the kitchen, from utensils to bowls/dishes/glassware to cookware, contributed to the peaceful ambience. The bathrooms/showers with such beautiful tiles and appointments also lent to the special atmosphere. The location was also perfect, with easy walks to the beach and village (and grocery store!). We didn’t want to leave!The hosts were very enthusiastic and easy to work with throughout the reservation, check-in, and check-out process.

    An absolute gem of a place! From the attention to design details, the decor quality, and the location, this was everything we were hoping for and more for our family of 5 (and small dog).

    We had an absolutely wonderful experience at Joel's charming cottage for our honeymoon! The property was warm and cozy, making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. The thoughtful touches and beautiful decor created a magical atmosphere that enhanced our special trip. We loved the location in proximity to Cleo Beach and the Village, which made it easy for us to take in the peaceful surroundings. Joel was an attentive host, ensuring we had everything we needed. We can't recommend this place enough for a romantic getaway! We hope to return in the future.
