Location, location location! If you want to be at the beach without the heavy cost, this cute place does the trick. Less then a minute walk to the beach, its a true little beach house. Don was very responsive when I texted him and quick to address any questions. The couches in the house could use some updating but if you are here to crash and go to the beach, this fits the bill. The house could use some dusting, there was a lot of dust and sand on the floors and the window blinds. I was very happy for the washer/dryer and the beds were comfortable. Plan to bring ancillary items or stop down the street to get them as the house has just the basics - towels, dishes, sheets and bedding. A few of the pillows did not have pillowcases and I couldn't find them so I did buy some of my own at the nearby target. We stayed during a rare occurrence in SD, a rainy time so we did have to use the heat which is not the best. It doesn't heat the house very well but somehow makes it stuffy at the same time. I don't think it's an issue since most of the time it is warm and sunny in SD and you would want to keep the windows open and get the nice breeze. Great value to be so close to the ocean. Great places to eat and drink a block down the street.
