So many activities indoors and out to keep everyone entertained. The kitchen was well equipped and large enough for 6 adults to move around. It is located a short drive from Legoland, restaurants, and grocery stores. When there was a problem with the clothes washer Casey responded promptly and a maintenance man repaired it the next day. This house will be on our short list for a return trip. Barbara ##### Barbara T. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Jessica H. 3 Jul 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### DO NOT BOOK - Would give zero stars if I could I booked this property months in advance only to have the host cancel on me 18 hours prior to check in. I didn't even see the cancellation until I was two hours into my drive to Oceanside with my husband, two small children and parents. The host was non-responsive until I called VRBO to get help. Once she did respond, I was told there was an "electrical issue". I'm fairly certain she found someone to book last minute at triple my rate. DO NOT BOOK THIS PROPERTY. Such a disappointment. Save yourself and your family the heartache of a busted vacation. ##### Jessica H.

This home is one where you feel like you could just move in, it’s that welcoming. The house is clean, comfortable, and spacious. It is nice enough that it makes you want to spend time at the home itself instead of leaving. Casey is a great host and does an incredible job. Overall just an excellent, comfortable stay and I can’t recommend this place enough! ##### Stephanie S.
