About this property

70 steps to surf! A+ location! A+ Patio! A+ parking!

This surfside cottage is a family favorite! We are located at 726 Dover Court in South Mission Beach, with one amazing parking space and an outdoor courtyard that will be your favorite place to rest and relax after a day in the sun! The unit sits on the ground-level of a two-unit building, with a spacious courtyard patio that is private to the cottage. The patio is about 15 x 20 feet in size and is an outdoor space you will not find easily elsewhere for this value! Enjoy grilling and dining while just steps away from the deep blue sea, the boardwalk, sandy beach, and surf! Play in the ocean right in front of lifeguard tower #12, located straight from the sidewalk leading you to the beach. Just four doors from the shore, it will take you only 70 steps to get to the boardwalk, sand, and surf! We love that all of the adventures and activities are so close, yet perfectly distanced so you can still find quiet respite at the home when desired. Take a short stroll a few blocks North and you will find fun for all ages at Belmont Park. The famous Giant Dipper Roller Coaster, arcade, minigolf, shopping, dining, and more can be found right here on the boardwalk! Beautiful fitness center and indoor Plunge pool welcomes all ages for fun out of the sun. Small grocery markets and eateries are all conveniently located within walking distance from the home. There are many nearby rental shops offering bicycle, kayak, surfboard, sailboat rentals and much more! Keep your vehicle parked and explore the area by foot, bicycle, or blades! We would love to have you visit us! We have lots of returning guests come back year after year to their favorite beach spot, and we hope you will too!

Interior:
This bright and sunny cottage-style unit is perfect for a single family with kids or two couples. Sleeps up to 6 guests in beds, or 8 guests using sofa bed. The home is very welcoming and open, with all rooms connecting in a large circle. Enter the home from the front door and you will be in the kitchen that overlooks the living area and the courtyard patio. From the living room you will pass the bunk bed caves (TWO TWIN BUNKS which are open to the hallway and living area with their own TVs) and to Bathroom 2 and then Bedroom 2 (KING BED). You will then find Bedroom 1 (KING BED) which has the ability to close a door to this hallway, creating a main suite that attaches to Bathroom 1. Bathroom 1 has two entry doors, one leading to Bedroom 1 and the other leading to the front door and kitchen. There is a private stackable washer & dryer in Bathroom 1, allowing for convenience and light packing! Updated vinyl plank flooring can be seen throughout the home, along with fresh beachy decor. Full kitchen with gas stove, dishwasher, microwave, pantry, and plenty kitchen appliances. Lots of windows give this beach house character and a bright beach cottage feel. Work from here with fast WiFi and plenty of space to sit at the breakfast bar or outside on the patio.

Additional Information:
PLEASE no pets! While we love our furry family, we have a strict no pet-policy in order to keep our homes clean and allergy-free for all guests!
PLEASE no parties! We are a very family-friendly property and will not tolerate partying or noise complaints of any kind. Many residents live here year-round, so please be a good neighbor!
Enjoy the selection of beach/sand toys and boogie boards available at the property.
Additional guest laundry room with two washers and two dryers are available for use as well.

Graduation weekend.

The home was perfect for our family while we were attending SDSU graduation. We were able to come back after ceremonies and relax in the yard area with the fire pit. Communication with Sharon was excellent. We look forward to staying again when our next SDSU Graduates in 2027!

Quiet oasis steps from the beach

This was the perfect home base for a girls’ getaway weekend! It was close enough to the beach for super easy access but just far enough that it was peaceful despite the spring break crowds. The owner was responsive and easy to work with, and the house had everything we needed. I would definitely stay here again!

I cannot say enough great things about our stay at this beach house. It was cozy, comfortable and well decorated. It had all the amenities of home including linens, towels and kitchen utensils. It is so close to the beach without being in a high traffic area.

Beach getaway

We loved this property, it’s exactly as advertised! It’s in the perfect location just steps away from the beach and the outdoor space is really enjoyable. The only reason we gave 4 stars instead of 5 is due to the cleanliness of the floors. We had a crawling age kiddo and the floors turned his legs and feet black, as well as ours from walking on it. The floor felt grimy to walk on. Aside from that, it was excellent!

Perfect location for families

The pictures are very accurate and our party of 6 was very comfortable staying here. The beach is so close! AND if you have kids I highly recommend staying here as you are super close to the Belmont arcade and fair. Lots of fun games and roses right on the boardwalk. Our 7 year old and twin 4 year olds LOVED the beach and the arcade and the restaurants that were super close. Highly recommend this propriety!

Family vacation

Location is perfect for family beach vacation. Much appreciated the on-site parking. Beach, food, groceries, coffee a very short walk. The bunk bed cave was perfect for our four year old grandson. Lots of beach toys available to use. Generous outside patio space, which was great for any/all meals. We did hear foot steps, etc from upstairs rental unit, but did not find that bothersome. We had a great stay and would recommend.

So Nice

This condo is perfect. It is close to the beach but not right on the board walk which is very nice. If you are right on the boardwalk on Mission Beach you loss privacy. This has the best of both worlds. One min walk to the beach with a patio. Just the best!!!!

great property, excellent location

It was a very good stay; overall, I was very happy with the property. The location is great. There are plenty of beach toys to use. The patio is very nice. The short walk to the beach is really easy straight down the path. The GPS seems to want to take you past the drivable alley to the walking path, so double-check; if you can't turn down the street, you may have gone past it. Also, it seemed to happen when we ordered some food. The delivery person came past the street to the walking path side of the address.

The Amazing Getaway

This place was truly amazing the location the cleanliness the ambience. If we had any questions the owner got back with us immediately everything we needed was there. I look forward to coming that direction again but I hope these owners have a bigger place because I would love for the rest of my family to enjoy this beautiful experience.. the only thing that was missing was the fire pit in the backyard to keep us warm at night but it was okay we toughed it out and enjoyed the evening. It was home away from home thank you

Why they chose this property

Work hard, play hard! We love the beach!

What makes this property unique

Single level and the PATIO!!! We love how clean and easy this beach house is. We love the open kitchen design as I can watch the kids and cook easily. The patio is our outdoor room and we just love that the most. We have a back door that leads right into the kitchen from the parking spot. The same back door provides a shortcut into the bath and saves on sandy feet issues. The full-size laundry is right inside that same bath, so it makes things easier here. It also has the best, wide parking spot ever!
