Michael is a friendly, conscientious and knowledgeable host who made us feel at home. The cottage is sparkling clean and well-stocked with kitchen equipment that I, as a cook, appreciate. The TV is up-to-date with streaming services and the Wi-fi was reliable. The cottage sits in a quiet residential neighborhood that has plenty of sidewalks, which was perfect for walking our two small dogs. From the cottage, if you go west on Froude Street, you'll get to the top of a hill that provides a panoramic view of the ocean and the Ocean Beach pier. We brought a lot of groceries from home, so we were not heavily reliant on stores in Ocean Beach; however, there is a Target and a couple of small markets within a few blocks of the cottage. Overall, I recommend Michael's cottage if you are looking for a quiet, well-stocked place to stay and would return!
