Amazing location, well stocked

Location is perfect, easy walk to the beach and ice cream! This is the most well stocked house we've ever rented - they literally have everything. Backyard is beautiful and we ate all our meals on the deck. Would be 5 stars if there wasn't a mold issue in the house (the asthmatics in our family felt it...).

Very Close to the Beach!

We really enjoyed our stay that this home. It has everything that you would need including bikes, wet suites, surf boards and sand toys. If I had to pick something to improve I would want a bigger light in a back yard so you could see the grill better and maybe even eat outside when it is dark out. Other than that it was exactly what we needed. We walked down to the beach everyday. The water was rough when we where there but it was so beautiful and the surfers are always fun to watch. The house is only 35 mins from San Diego so it was an easy drive to the Zoo and Sea World. We enjoyed Swamis Beach at low tied. Cali Cream is just up the road with the most amazing ice cream. Thanks for a great stay!!

Wonderful Fit For Our Family

Amazing location - just steps from Moonlight beach and easy walk to main shops, restaurants, coffee shops. Bikes were great to have and can explore a lot of the area without a car. Loved having 3 bedrooms and large kitchen. Garage and all if it’s outdoor and beach fun gear was great to have. Nice backyard space to hang out in too.

About the host

Hosted by Erin and Peter Moosbrugger

This home has been in our family since the 1970s. It has been loved and nurtured through 4 generations of family. It's our happy place. Our grandparents bought it before anyone really knew just how cool Encinitas was. We have storyboards of memories with our families on Moonlight Beach. To say it is near and dear to our hearts, is an understatement. In 2017, Erin, Tiffany and I (Piper), cousins and sisters, embarked on the adventure of keeping the legacy alive. With increasing expenses, that meant we needed to rent the house so that we could keep it in our family for our children and our children's children. It gives us great joy to share the house and to know that other people love it as much as we do.
