About the host

Hosted by Stephanie and Bud

Host profile image
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.
