About this property

Dog Lover's Paradise in Pismo Beach

Adorable & beachy vacation rental home in Downtown Pismo Beach.

It has two bedrooms and one full-bathroom on the second floor. The primary bedroom includes ample storage space, a comfortable king-size bed, and views of the surrounding area - including the famous Pismo Beach sign. The second bedroom has a queen-size bed, a twin bunk bed, and a large closet for storage. The upstairs restroom has a newly remodeled shower with a large tub, and a skylight providing natural light. Downstairs you'll have a large, open-concept layout, with a newly remodeled kitchen, a dining table that seats 8, a half bathroom, and comfortable living room furniture. The living room has a stream-ready smart TV, a DVD player with a selection of DVDs, as well as books for you to enjoy. There is also a little doggy corner under the staircase with a crate and other pet amenities. Laundry room with full size washer and dryer off the kitchen.

The fenced backyard features a Blackstone Gas Barbecue (propane provided) fountain, plants, and bistro seating, as well as a doggy door for the convenience of you and your furry family-member (guests must pick up after their furry family to avoid additional housekeeping charges).

The owners suggest you use the front patio as an extension of the living room. It has comfortable patio furniture, twinkle lights, a citrus tree, and steps leading down to a propane fire pit with Adirondack chairs. The front patio is the perfect space for morning coffee or an evening glass of wine.

Cute beach house

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed for about a week and a 1/2, extending our stay twice because of AC issues at our home. The staff were very friendly and helpful during these times. The house was everything we needed for our family/friends and dogs! Close to the pier/beach and everything else.

Great location and stay

This was the perfect house for our family of 5 and 2 dogs. Each of my 3 kids had their own bed which is a plus! The beds were comfortable. The house was clean. The dog door was perfect since our dogs are used to going out a dog door. Short walk to the beach and everything else. We didn't drive anywhere. Wish we stayed longer! Definitely planning our return trip!

Beautiful and comfortable

This home was beautiful and very comfortable and our two fur babies loved the small backyard and using doggie door. This home does have lots of stairs and steps, as well as a very deep tub/shower so may not be a good choice for those with physical challenges.

Plenty of room for my brother and I, and a great patio for other family gatherings. I hope we can return.

This is a nice property. The house is very nice and is decorated very well. It is really well equipped—had everything we needed. Very dog friendly but the yard is so small that it’s pretty saturated with pet smells. Very close to the 101 (less than a block) and Price St. and there was so much road noise at all hours since it was too hot to keep the windows closed. Garbage collectors at 5:30am that were so noisy. Can’t tell from the photos what a congested area this is in—but probably typical of a beach community.

Great Beach House

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed in this place a year ago in March. It was great then. We decided to try it again and the entire place had new gorgeous flooring. What a nice surprise. I still have to brag about the big sunny front deck. So fun to sit out there and sun bathe or play cards. Kitchen has all the supplies to cook your own meals along with a fancy grill outside. Beds are comfy and bathroom is large and roomy. The Coastal Vacation team was great. We were able to check in early on our first day. I’m sure that’s on a case by case basis though. Location is walking distance to everything popular in Pismo. Plus, it’s super dog friendly for our pups. Highly recommend! We will be back. ♥️

Family mini vacation

Everything was spot-on for this house! Walkable to downtown Pismo. The kitchen was great to cook in. Also, comfortable living space and good floor plan/outdoor spaces with a fun beach-vibe throughout. Check in and check out were very convenient. Had a great stay!

Pismo town

We enjoyed walking to the beach and to restaurants. We are glad our dog was welcome to stay and she enjoyed the beach, and the cool sea air. The house is nicely equipped for cooking. We are not good with streaming tv, but with Ken’s help we did get some viewing time. The back door needs a little help, it sticks. The carpet had some spots, but the house was very clean.

Amazing Pismo Rental

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: 371 Stimson is a perfect Pismo vacation rental ! It is warm, welcoming and so full of fun tasteful “beachy” decor! The kitchen is so fully equipped it is amazing. Along with so many wonderful amenities, the best was our fur baby Roger felt welcomed and accommodated! The deck, the huge barbque and fire pit made our stay even more perfect!

Clean, comfy vacation home in a walkable beachside neighborhood

When I first entered the property, I was so impressed with the cleanliness and decor. The natural lighting and outdoor spaces were fantastic. This property had almost everything we could’ve possibly needed, from cooking and baking tools in the kitchen to a handheld steamer in the laundry room. They even had a dog crate, leashes and treats! We didn’t have a dog with us but it just goes to show how thoughtfully this property was stocked. We hosted a BBQ after my sister’s Cal Poly graduation and only needed to buy the food. The neighborhood was super walkable, with a basic market right on the corner. We had an issue with the wifi when we first arrived and a property manager texted me right away (after hours!), setting up a time to come by the next morning. It was a perfect spot for a vacation/family reunion. Thank you so much!
