This is a charming house with a quick easy walk to the beach. It is an older home, classic for the area, so no A/C (but plenty of fans) or dishwasher, but we've been here many times and love it.

Our family’s favorite tradition

We’ve been staying at the beach cottage for a few years now. My kiddos were devastated when we couldn’t come last year, so it was super important to us to be able to come back this summer. We made the best memories together and just adore the originality of the home. The location is perfect and the accommodations are always incredible. Feels like our home away from home Thank you for having us, David!

Great location

We enjoyed our stay in Mission Beach. The house was the perfect location, and had everything we needed. The host was awesome, and the description was accurate.The house os old and charming but with that, felt dirty and needed a little more tlc if renting. I would have loved updated bedding, towels, and kitchen ware.charming

Wonderful Stay

The location was fantastic—couldn't have asked for a better spot for the price! The owner was incredibly responsive, even through VRBO messaging, which made the entire experience seamless. The cottage itself was a real gem. Growing up in Michigan, it reminded me of the older homes there, bringing back great memories. I would definitely stay here again. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home—it was absolutely perfect!

This house is all about location! Steps to the beach and a short walk to Belmont park. The perfect place to stay with kids. Love that they had lots of boogie boards and beach chairs to use. My daughters had a blast. Also, it has a garage which is a bonus! My family loved staying here.
