Dana Point Parkside Cottage

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

This quiet Dana Point classic is a great house in a great little neighborhood. Recently renovated, with great attention to its design and details, it has beautiful wood floors and lots of enormous windows to let the classic California sunshine in so this home feels light and airy. City of Dana Point Permit #ST21-1203.

Your front yard is Sunset Park with a playground and an ocean view beyond. Sit on the front porch and enjoy watching the sunset, all while the children enjoy safe places to play at the playground or in the beautiful back yard.

This cottage is only minutes from all the best beaches, shopping, and recreation southern California has to offer. It’s location halfway between Los Angeles and San Diego makes 1-day trips to Los Angeles (Universal Studios, Dodger Stadium, Beverly Hills, Hollywood), Anaheim (Disneyland, Anaheim Stadium) and San Diego (Sea World, San Diego Zoo) very doable.

You may want to stay at the cottage and take advantage of the recently renovated, fully equipped kitchen and a beautifully decorated backyard with top of the line teak furniture for al fresco dining anytime.

The dining table has a great distant view of the sunset reflecting on the ocean, and the sun pours in in the morning to make a delightful beginning to the day. It is next to a spacious living room, which is separate from the family room, where the TV is. You may find this to be a great place for finding your calm or just reflecting on your life or what matters to you.

There is also a new, fabulously appointed large patio and a garden with a really nice barbecue off the family room where you can enjoy your meals and entertain if the mood strikes you, or just sink into a chair, put your feet up, and get lost in a book.

There is an epic collection of DVD's (action, adventure, documentary, romantic comedy, kid-friendly), books, (for all ages) and a variety of board games. This family room is separate from the living room so kids and adults can do different things without disturbing one another.

You may be tempted to never leave the property, but remember you're within a mile or two of some of the greatest beaches in California and also the Dana Point Harbor. You'll find plenty of things to do no matter what your taste or mood - golf, tennis, surfing, sport fishing, or sitting on the beach reading – all waiting for you to decide and go for it.

There are two bedrooms with queen beds and a TV room with a queen pull out sofa. This home sleeps six comfortably. There are two baths, one in the house and the other off the patio that is easily accessible.

There's a Trader Joe's down the street along with restaurants and movie theaters. Costco is 10 minutes away. San Juan Capistrano, San Clemente, Laguna Beach, and Newport Beach are just minutes away if you want to go exploring other areas.

This can be your new home away from home. Imagine great happy hours, stellar sunsets, and endless days relaxing on the beach. It’s Classic Southern California living in a Classic California cottage. Life is good here!

Overall great house.
Loved the location, the backyard was fantastic for our dogs and toddler too. There were a few things of concern (like the front railing needs to be repaired and an indoor lock needs to be installed on the front door) but overall it was a great stay and a great property. Definitely would stay here again!

Will never use VRBO/Vacasa again
We vacated this property after less than 30 minutes and are now dealing with horrendous customer support in receiving a refund from Vacasa. Upon entering the home, we immediately smelled an unclean odor that made it hard to breathe. We then noticed bugs that looked like cockroaches around the window sills in the bathroom and living areas. In the backyard space, there was animal waste left on the property. All the furniture pieces had stains on them that smelled of animal urine and were unsafe to sit on. Throughout the house, there are signs stating that the plumbing in the house is not good and guests will be charged for any plumbing issues that occur. Further, the trash bins were completely overfilled making it impossible to even utilize the bins were we to stay. We immediately called customer support for VRBO and for Vacasa, stating the unsanitary conditions of the home, and shared the voluminous photos we took of the cockroaches, stains, and animal waste, then booked a different property in Newport Beach via a different service. Again, we did not stay at the property for longer than 30 minutes though we had booked for a full week. We have asked for an immediate refund to which Vacasa and VRBO have been ignoring our calls, and are taking necessary steps to ensure not only that we are refunded but that this property is delisted until it is safe for people to use.

Adorable
A very quaint property with a great backyard. The 2nd bedroom is not in the house but located in the garage. Some of the windows don't lock. With that said we loved our stay.

Dana Point Cottage
Great location and the house has good bones but does need some tender loving care. Great backyard and beautiful park across the street for kids and dogs. Backyard is need of a hose with a nozzle to keep the area clean.
