The Beach, Bay and Belmont Park right at your feet-Mission Beach

This Mission Beach Bungalow is perfect for a small group of 4 who want to get away and enjoy a fun filled vacation in Mission Beach near all the attractions. This property has the perfect fenced patio, one off street parking space provided, located 1/2 block from Mission Bay and 1 block from the ocean. If you are looking for a beach getaway, this is the perfect property for you!

Mission Bay Park, Belmont Park, San Diego's historic oceanfront amusement park and let's not forget to mention the beach, are all right across the street. Restaurants, bars, coffee shops, beach equipment rentals and markets, are within walking distance. You can rent or bring a bicycle and take a cruise along the boardwalk to find your perfect spot on the beach. There are several bike paths in the area, including one to Ocean Beach! 

The Dover Beach Bungalow is cozy, clean beach house that was built in 1942. The bungalow is 720 square feet and with only 4 people staying there, allows plenty of space for everyone to relax. This property provides a comfortable place to relax after your daily adventures. Lounge on the couch and see what is available on cable TV, or maybe start a new series on Netflix instead. During commercials, you can update your Facebook on your cell phone or laptop using the secured Wi-Fi that is provided. If the weather is just too good to be inside, enjoy dinner and friends outside. There is a large table with seating for 6 on the front patio along with a gas BBQ available for you to use if you wish. After you load up and start the dishwasher, check your clothes to make sure you didn't spill any BBQ sauce on them. If you find some BBQ sauce on your clothes, it is okay, just throw them into the washer and dryer located in the garage.  When heading out to the beach or the bay, don't forget to grab the boogie boards, beach chairs and beach towels provided for you to enjoy.

So grateful to call this beach cottage home for a week. The parking was amazing! I’d brought my beach cruiser on vacation, and the garage was a bonus. The couch needs replaced, but is usable and who goes on vacation to sit on a couch?? My husband! The location was perfect. I can’t wait to visit again.

The location was very good. Communication with the host was excellent. The house was cozy and clean, but could use several updates. The sofa needs to be replaced. It’s such a cute home in a desirable area with just a little bit of investment. It could become a five star rating for sure. The lack of air conditioning was only a minor problem, but the fans provided also need to be replaced as they are very old.

Great location

House is in a great location between the lagoon and ocean. Had all of the beach toys you need and a wagon to haul them. House needs lots of updates. Bed is very creaky, screens are ripped or missing and the furniture is different than what’s in the pictures.

The cottage was nice but it was extremely hot with one box fan and 1 standup. Would recommend sometime of AC for next years visitors. We sat outside for a few minutes. If I would have had a broom and somewhere to clean the yard. It is too bad that hasn't been done for a long long time. It is between extremely nice cottages where their yards are extremely nice.
