First, please be accurate when making your Reservation!
As we have posted previously we need to know number of adults, number of children including their ages and any special needs. Our house has survived three children of our own but does have several steep stairs. We recommend that you use the side entrance (really the “front” but it faces the thankfully wide “view easement “. All children MUST wear appropriate helmets for bicycling and we provide several mostly adult sizes, so you may need to procure one. Bicycling supplies and helmets are available for rent including family cruisers at the hotel just beyond the park and visible from the street and the Master Bedroom to the Southeast. Both Marinas, one in each direction also have bike rentals and sales.
No street parking and n We easily fit more.
Any pets must be disclosed on making the reservation. Failing that as soon as you know they are coming!
Regulations (and,sadly, experience) limit us to only two dogs. They must be house broken and you are liable for additional cleaning charges if needed for accidents. We have a small dog run with dog house consisting of six foot high chain link 6 x 12 feet long. The upper deck is also fenced and gated so very small dogs can't get loose!
Dogs MUST be on leash at ALL TIMES, when outside.
Use of bicycles and beach toys are at your own risk.
Please lock or keep garage closed when using bicycles, surfboards, wetsuits and other equipment in garage or outside closet beside side door is where surfboards and boogie boards are kept. This is great neighborhood but people are always going to the beach and unguarded and unlocked bicycles and expensive custom surfboards are very tempting. We provide bicycle locks and adult helmets. Helmets are required. If you would like to rent a surrey, chopper, or electric bike, the visible Zachari Dunes hotel is south of the park and offers those amenities.
The house is too difficult to child proof per our insurance, (we have 2 entry ways upstairs that other houses do not) for kids 2 and under that cannot climb stairs and need to be watched constantly we highly recommend finding a house that fits your needs. The only real child proofing are vigilant parents.
We are very dog friendly home and neighborhood with 2 parks close by, we allow 2 dogs that need to be leashed every time you go outside, you may see some unleashed dogs at times, but it is a City of Oxnard requirement to leash them on the beach too.
Front stairs are steep and tile hard so we recommend using the left side door or going through the garage.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CHANGE WIRING OR PROGRAMMING OF MUSIC and video systems. You can fry them or deprogram them.
