Cozy and Great Location

We loved the Lantern District. It's so convenient to the Harbor and everything we wanted to do. My mother and I had a short trip to Dana Point and enjoyed staying at this cottage. It was cozy and had everything we needed for our stay.

Best stat ever!

Brilliant home away from home and the best hosts anyone could ask for! The location is ideal in Dana Point and you can get around anywhere in the town on foot. The home was absolutely perfect for our family and the attention to detail within the home is top-notch. We’ll stay here again and again anytime we’re in the area. A++++ experience and the best vacation home stay we’ve had as a family in 9+ years of extensive travel. Highly, highly recommended for anyone visiting the area!!!

It was a wonderful stay

I enjoyed my stay very much! Stephanie and family couldn’t have been nicer! She introduced to a neighbor who was also very nice. The apartment was very comfortable and cute. It’s a beautiful area. I miss it a lot!

Excellent stay - can't wait to come back!

I had a fantastic stay and I'm sad to leave! Stephanie and Bud were so welcoming and went above and beyond in making sure my stay was a great one. Stephanie provided a ton of great recommendations on restaurants and things to do around the area when I arrived. I had to work "from home" and they made sure I was equipped with everything I needed (even providing me with a desk and desk chair!). The internet was being sluggish on my work laptop and they had someone out the very next day and resolved the issue immediately. Very quiet neighborhood and location is perfect for walking and exploring Dana Point. As a woman traveling by myself I felt very safe staying in this property. Property is bright and updated, equipped with everything I needed for a longer stay, and the bed was VERY comfortable. I highly recommend staying here.

About the host

Hosted by Stephanie and Bud

We are a family that loves living by the ocean, walking downtown or to the harbor. Our great location allows us to walk to dinner or go see the seals in the harbor. You will love this location as we do. The home is vintage 1950's but all remodeled and updated everything. We purchased this property from the family that built it. We love it's history and warm feel, plus the location can't be beat. We are here for whatever needs may arise, but our rental home allows the tenants privacy as it is detached from our main home. We love the Dana Point area and know you will too. So much to see and do!

Why they chose this property

We purchased this property from the original family who built it in the 1950's. The back home was built for the family of five to live in while the husband took 6 years to build the front house. We love the charm and history of this home and property.

What makes this property unique

Walking to downtown! Short drive or walk to the beach, harbor, restaurants. Dana Point is right in between Laguna Beach and San Clemente, both easily accessible from this home. Dana Point has recently had a downtown revitalization, so many wonderful businesses and restaurants have opened.
