The vacation rental cottage is just 30 minutes from San Diego International Airport. The beach in front of the North Coast Village is renowned for boogie boarding and short board surfing. Take a short stroll through the lovely gardens of our beautiful complex to get to the sand and waves. If you are pushing a stroller, there are some shortcuts to the beach or you can take the sidewalk which runs from the front entry gates all the way around down Breakwater Way to the edge of the sand. Either way, you are not more than 5 minutes to the beach. The jetty of the harbor and the Oceanside municipal pier make year round wave action dependable and delightful. The Historic Oceanside Marina and Harbor is just across the San Luis Rey River. Pacific Street dead ends now at South Harbor Drive and you can once again access the harbor shops and restaurants via a short 2 minute walk across the San Luis Rey River. Just a few hundred yards from our front door is the new access gate for the San Luis Rey Bike trail, a paved biking trail that goes about 15 miles up river.
