I book Chet and Francie’s Beach Casita for a recent trip to San Diego due to its proximity to my Mom’s house and Dog Beach. Prior to my arrival I was a little bit apprehensive about the stringent sounding set of house rules but my anxiety proved to be unnecessary because the atmosphere at the Casita was peaceful and easy going. The Casa is a one bedroom and bath beach cottage directly across the street from the ocean with full kitchen, living room and dining area. It is footsteps away from Dog Beach where pooches are free to frolic and mingle and summer night sea side bon fires are still a thing. My littles guys had a ball walking on the beach and exploring the perimeters of the enclosed eco-friendly turf shared back yard. My dogs are 12 years old and the size of guinea pigs and can be a bit yappy but they were so tired out from playing on the beach that they were quiet as mice. The Casita on Muir is a lovely and ideal spot for surfers and dog lovers alike. I hope to return soon.
