5 MINUTE Walk to Beach! 4 br 2 bath Gorgeous Private CLASSIC California Bungalow

(Note Vrbo maps is wrong -- this home is just a 2-minute drive from the beach) JUST A 5-MINUTE WALK TO THE BEACH! Relax in this gorgeous, updated 1935 California beach bungalow. New paint, flooring and beachy decor throughout. A large backyard with tons of seating, as well as a huge outdoor deck, sun-room, and sunny dining room. Quiet neighborhood but a very short walk to excellent restaurants of all types. Two large nearby groceries. You'll have the entire house to yourselves -- 4 bedrooms with closets, 2 full baths, full kitchen, living room, extra rec room, washer/dryer, barbeque grill – even Foosball! Fully stocked with kitchen supplies & linens. Plenty of on-site parking. We even provide free snacks! Ideal for families or friends.

When you rent a vacation home you often only deal with a large property management company. They’re typically available only Monday to Friday, 9 to 5. And even if you reach them during office hours it can take days to solve an issue – usually after you’ve checked out. And you often have to check in, fill out paperwork and get keys at their office, which can be miles away.

Our names are Melany & Jon and we own and manage this home ourselves. We’ve lived here for 30 years – California’s Central Coast is heaven on Earth to us! Your key will be waiting for you at the house in a lock-box. We live 5 minutes from the property and are available to help 24/7. You’ll have our personal cell number -- call or text ANYTIME! We’ll deal with any issue immediately. We are familiar with all the local shopping, activities, and restaurants (honestly we eat out too much). We’d LOVE to recommend places and activities to make your stay absolutely amazing!!

Beachy charm in a great location

Dreamy old school beach cottage! And perfectly decorated to amp up the space’s vintage charm. Cozy yet with a surprising number of bedrooms and private outdoor spaces. A short easy walk to the fabulous beach and trails. Peaceful and quiet but minutes away from the hurly burly of Pismo. Friendly welcoming hosts who communicated via phone and text answering all our questions about where to get groceries etc. We’re so glad that we decided to give our daughter and her little dog a ride to LA from SF because needing a dog friendly place led us here.

Great location in Grover Beach

We just spent a long weekend at this home. It has everything you need to make it 'home' for a while. The beds are very comfortable and the location is fantastic. Walking distance to shops, restaurants, etc and just down the street from the vehicle beach entrance. Highly recommend.
