Surf City Beach Cottages... Steps to the ocean..🛖🏝️🐶

Hey there, I’m Ryan, your host at Surf City Beach Cottages! I’m a Huntington Beach local, born and raised in the heart of Surf City USA, where the ocean’s pulse is part of daily life. Growing up here, I’ve spent my days riding waves, cruising the boardwalk, and soaking in the laid-back coastal vibe. Surfing’s my passion—whether it’s catching dawn patrol sessions or cheering on my champion surfing dogs, Sugar, TiTi, and Kiwi, who’ve become legends in their own right. I also love exploring local trails with my pups, firing up the BBQ for sunset gatherings, and sharing HB’s best spots with guests, from hidden coffee shops to prime surf breaks.
Being a host is my way of sharing this slice of paradise with you. I live in the back unit, so I’m always around to offer tips, arrange surf lessons, or make sure your stay feels like home. I get a kick out of seeing guests light up when they catch their first wave, relax in the new Hot Springs jacuzzi, or capture epic moments on video to share with friends. My goal? To make your time here unforgettable, whether you’re here for the surf, the sun, or just to chill with your furry friends in our pet-friendly haven. Let’s make your Surf City adventure one for the books!

Picture this: You step out of the cottage into a palm tree-lined front yard, where the salty ocean breeze carries the sound of crashing waves just 1.5 blocks away. The sun casts a golden glow over Huntington Beach, and from your doorstep, you catch glimpses of the Pacific sparkling between the palms. The neighborhood hums with a relaxed, surf-centric vibe—locals cruise by on bikes, dogs trot happily alongside their owners, and surfers with boards under their arms head toward the iconic Huntington Beach Pier, just an 8-minute walk away. The air is filled with the scent of sunscreen, sea salt, and nearby coffee shops brewing fresh roasts. It’s a safe, friendly enclave that feels like a small coastal village, yet it’s steps from the vibrant energy of Main Street’s restaurants, surf shops, and laid-back bars.
What I love most about this neighborhood is its perfect balance of chill and adventure. It’s quiet enough to feel like a retreat—perfect for unwinding in the jacuzzi or lounging on the patio under the honeysuckle canopy—but close enough to the action that you’re never far from the fun. In just 7 minutes, you’re on Main Street, grabbing tacos or browsing surf gear. The beach is so close you can pop over with the provided chairs and umbrellas for a quick sunset session or hop on a beach cruiser to roll along the boardwalk, feeling the freedom of the coast. The neighborhood’s walkability and proximity to Pacific City’s dining and shopping (15-minute walk) make it a hub for both locals and visitors. Plus, the surf culture here is unmatched—home to legends like my own Sugar the Surfing Dog, this area pulses with the spirit of Surf City USA. Whether it’s watching pro surfers at the pier, joining a lesson, or just soaking in the ocean views, this neighborhood makes every day feel like a beach vacation with a side of community warmth.
