HOUSE RULES HIGHLIGHT:
Please note a typical day at The Dock does NOT include beer pong or any type of smoking. The Dock is NOT a party place! It is a smoke and drug-free property
Out of respect to our neighbors, the patio closes at 10 PM. Our neighbors are not on vacation and their right to enjoy their homes is important!
Over occupancy and/or noise levels affecting residents of Newport Beach are enforced by the City of Newport Beach Code and Law Enforcement 24/7. If the guest(s) over occupancy or noise levels result in a city fine, $1,000 minimum, the fine will be charged to the reservation. ALL guests will be immediately evicted from the property.
NO PETS-allergy free home due to family allergies
Best suited for 1-4 guests including families with respectful, older (8+) children that eat meals and snacks at the indoor or outdoor table. Adults/children need to be safe and capable with stairs.
There is a friendly, quiet professional couple that are long-term tenants in the front unit of our home. You may never see or hear them but good to be aware they are on the property.

About the host
Hosted by Holly Wetherholt
Our family has called Newport Beach home for more than 25 years. We personally manage the property and live a few blocks away. Close enough when you need us and far enough away for your privacy.
Why they chose this property
We chose this property because of the location, location, location! We like to be able to park our car and walk places. Everything you need is conveniently located within a short walk. Our family loves the beach and the bay. Whenever life gets too hectic, a little walk with a beautiful sunset puts everything into perspective.
What makes this property unique
The Dock is the back unit of a Newport Beach classic duplex situated in a great community. You will never run out of places to go or things to do in the local area.
