Cozy Beach Cottage, Walk to Everything! 2bed/1bath

Perfect for friends and families in an ideal location: 1/2 block from the Bay, 1 block to shops and restaurants, and 1 1/2 blocks to Ocean! You will love this beautiful cottage.

This cozy cottage is a stand alone house and, unlike many other beach properties, it is equipped with AIR CONDITIONING and a parking spot big enough for an SUV.

A perfect 2-bedroom, 1 bath that is great for a family or small group of friends, or remote workers. WiFi is super fast!

The first bedroom has a comfortable queen bed with 540 thread count sheets, feather duvet & pillows. The second bedroom has desk and a cute trundle bed that converts into two twin beds.

Newly remodeled. The cottage was stripped to the studs in 2018 and has all new drywall, siding, and doors. The furniture and beds are new and very comfortable! The kitchen was remodeled in 2015.

After an adventurous day surfing or paddle-boarding, you can come home to your YouTubeTV & Netflix so you won't miss your favorite show or game! There is also a small table and chairs outside so you can people watch with your morning coffee or afternoon cocktail-a beach staple.

A car is helpful if you want to get to the farther attractions in San Diego such as LegoLand and the Safari Park or if you have a child that needs a car seat.

Otherwise, the best way to get around is to use Uber/Lyft and Bird Scooters... Combining these services is fun and affordable!

****Please note before booking**** If you cancel your reservation at any time after booking, you will forfeit the credit card fees associated with your booking. EVEN IF VRBO says you will receive a full refund.

A Crib can be delivered for a $25 fee.
A Crib and high chair can be delivered for a $35 fee.

Air Conditioning is located in the main living room. With the use of fans, it keeps the entire cottage cool.


Molly's Rentals is a short term vacation rental company that provides a personalized customer experience to both our guests and owners. One of our team members is always available should you have any questions or issues during your stay. Our properties are well maintained and we always take our clients suggestions to heart.

Molly McCrackin grew up in San Diego and has been managing short term vacation rentals in the beach area since 2008. The company has grown over the years, but the service and attention to detail has stayed the same.
We are located in the center of Mission Beach with everything you need only a block or two away. (A large grocery store is about 1/2 mile away.)

-- 1/2 block to the bay
-- 1 1/2 blocks to the beach
-- 1 to 3 blocks away from a few amazing cafes and coffee shops.
-- 1/2 mile to Garnet Ave; which makes up the heart of Pacific Beach, where you can find great shopping, restaurants, bars, coffee shops, Trader Joe's, Vons, a 24 hour fitness, many yoga studios, and much more..
-- 1 block to the nearest bus stop.
-- 1 mile to Historic Belmont Park where you can ride the roller coaster, eat some ice cream, and watch the people walk by as you enjoy a drink at one of the oceanfront bars/restaurants.
-- 3 miles to Sea World
-- 8 miles to North Park - The center of hip beer bars and breweries!
--Less than 9 miles to Downtown San Diego and the Gaslamp Quarter; which provide fun night life and more upscale restaurants and bars.
-- 9 miles to the San Diego Zoo and beautiful Balboa Park.
-- 9 miles to the airport and downtown Amtrak station.

I provide an information booklet with lots of recommendations from local restaurants to some of my favorite hikes around San Diego...

Unlike other rentals, there is a large parking spot that comes with the house (A huge plus in the summer months when parking is at a premium). Laundry is also available onsite.

Beach Getaway

This house was a perfect place for a nice beach getaway. It is so close to the beach and only took about 5 mins to walk there. It is also in close walking distance to restaurants and a grocery store. The house was a perfect size for our group of three. It was well stocked with items that we needed.

Cute little home base to enjoy Mission Beach

This little home was the perfect home base for a long weekend. Such an easy, quick walk to the beach. Walking distance to shops, coffee and restaurants. The boogie boards were a huge hit and it was so nice to have bike rentals so close by. Parking might be a challenge if you have a large truck, but our midsize SUV rental fit perfectly. I didn’t realize when booking that it was a jack and Jill bathroom set up, but that worked out just fine. The neighborhood got pretty festive on Saturday/Sunday, but nothing that disrupted our stay. Would definitely recommend.

Very clean and cozy

Molly was a very accommodating host, very thoughtful with her touches, and a great communicator. The property was well furnished and prepared, and the place was very clean. The place is on the smaller side, but it worked just fine for our family of three and all of our luggage. She has plenty of places to put away clothes. Beds were comfortable, as was the couch. The parking spot, while tight, was greatly appreciated!

Molly is an excellent manager. She had good communication throughout the booking process and stay. The house is cute, clean, and within a short walk to the beach and several restraunts. The rooms are small, but comfortable. On site laundry facilities made washing beach towls easy. There is a parking spot by the house, which will fit a small SUV or compact vehicle. DO NOT TRY TO PARK A LARGE VEHICLE HERE! We would book with Molly again for sure. again.again!Itcomfortaburants.

Great Location and Great Host

Great location. Ocean (great for surfing and relaxing), restaurants and stores are all in walking distances. Public transit right in front of door. Very comfortable and cozy place. Bedrooms are a bit small but big enough to spend the night and also enough storage for clothes to hang up and put in drawers. Big kitchen with a 3 chair bar height (salt, pepper, oil, vinegar, some K-cup coffee available to start with etc. included). Comfortable size living room with a 3 seating couch. There is a foldable table and chairs if needed. Molly, the host answered all the questions I had in no time. We will definitely stay here again when visiting San Diego.

Beautiful Little Cottage

Our stay at Molly’s Mission Beach cottage was exactly what we were looking for when my husband and I booked our anniversary trip. This cute little cottage is a mere few walking minutes from the beach and the bay. We spent some of our days hanging out at the beach, visiting some of the cute little shops, and eating and drinking our way through the many cute little coffee shops, restaurants and bar & grills within walking distance of the place. The rental is a cozy two bedroom that was just enough room to stop by for a rest in between our walks on the beach and trips around the area or crashing at night. It is cute, clean and beachy!!!! Molly was also wonderful to work with before, during and after our stay. Communication was clear and timely. She even remembered it was our anniversary and left us a sweet basket of goodies to celebrate! We would definitely rent this place or from one of Molly’s other places the next time we are in town!
