What a great little house! The location is awesome - within a 15 min drive to beaches, downtown, airport, Balboa Park, La Jolla, all of Mission Bay. Although not quite walking distance to the beach for us (toting 2 little ones), Ocean Beach would be very accessible without a car, especially on bikes. Speaking of little ones, our kids (ages 2 and 4) had plenty of space to play both inside and outside the house, with a fully enclosed, safe backyard. We loved the availability of beach toys, towels, and laundry facilities. As others have mentioned, the house is in Ocean Beach, which is right underneath the departing flight path for the airport, so the noise does pick up around 6:30am. However, you get used to it pretty fast, and after a couple of days we barely noticed the planes anymore. Overall, a great place to stay, we'd definitely come back!
