We loved staying in Ed's cottage. It was clean, comfortable and beautifully decorated. The kitchen was absolutely adorable and had pretty much everything you could possible need including a well-stocked spice rack. When traveling with two growing boys, the ability to avoid eating out for every meal is truly helpful. Ed and his wife were quick to answer any question we had or supply us with anything we needed. I've seen the comments regarding the noise from airplanes and have to say I think that is a San Diego problem rather than the location of this great little house. We also really appreciated how close we were to the beach. If you are a dog lover, the nearby dog beach is a special treat. We left our pooch at home but spent a bunch of time watching others play in the surf. Ocean Beach is a great town and this rental is a fabulous option for vacationing families.
