Although it is not needed the majority of the year, there are a few weeks in the summer and early fall when the home can get warm.

Perfect, Welcoming, Awesome Location, Clean, Well Accomodated
We are prior "Venturans" who lived in the midtown area for 10 years. We were more than excited to be returning for a 8 night vacation to enjoy the area. The home was perfect and did not disappoint! The location is perfect, it was very clean. well organized and decorated. Every thing from the kitchen supplies to the extra blankets and beach towels/bikes/beach chairs made it easy to just "be" and enjoy! The outdoor space in back was perfect for dining alfresco or enjoying your morning cup of Java! Thanks so much we look forward to our next stay with you.
We highly recommend this property. It’s a very quaint older home that is clean, in a nice neighborhood that is conveniently located near many services, etc. and has a beautiful back yard.
This cute little house is perfect for small families with a dog. Beautifully maintained and private garden, all fenced in. Loved everything about this house/property, they thought of everything! Would love to come back.
Absolutely charming bungalow in Ventura. House was immaculate with so many amenities, including bikes, which were perfect for after dinner rides around the neighborhood. Can’t recommend this house enough!
Lovely house and property. Backyard is great to relax and enjoy the Ventura weather. Close to grocery store and beach. Can't beat it. Host was amazing and very responsive. She helped me get some clothes I left at the house too.
Visited son in Ventura for 2 weeks. Everything was just as advertised. Clean, comfortable, excellent location , great communication. Will most likely return again in a few months. Highly recommend!
From Ventura (moved just about 2 years ago) great place to meet up with friends
So comfortable; very nice, quiet neighborhood.
close enough to walk to grocery store, pharmacy, restaurants…
Close to ocean, enjoyed ocean air!
Slept so well in comfortable beds!!!
Negatives? NONE!
I had booked this rental six months ago and was unsure of what to expect. The photographs don’t do it justice. It is absolutely amazing and the backyard is stunning. We came here to attend a four day conference with a few of our staff, and ended up spending more time at the rental than anywhere else, working, cooking, and enjoying the space. The owner does a great job of having every amenity you need on site, including a few coffee pods basic spices for cooking and ample toilet paper and cleaning supply. They were wonderful and also accommodated a late check out for us on our final day. I will be renting here for years to come.

About the host
Hosted by Annie McGavren
My husband and I love sharing our sweet coastal town of Ventura with others. We live in town and are able to offer help when necessary. I work in education and my husband is a firefighter. When not working, we enjoy exploring new places with our children.
Why they chose this property
Ventura is an eclectic, somewhat undiscovered coastal town. From exploring downtown Ventura to surfing famous California breaks to bike-rides along the shore, this oceanside town has something for everyone!
What makes this property unique
The Yellow Door Bungalow is centralized to it all. This 1940 California bungalow was our first home and is our pride and joy. We have spent more than a decade pouring our love into this special home, doing our best to make thoughtful updates while preserving its original character. We love the way others fall in love with its unique and joyful feel.
