Fabulous Ventura!

Inviting beautiful beach cottage with plenty of room for our party of 8. Beach was a 2 min walk down a quiet street. Mary Kay was a very attentive host. She made sure we had everything we needed. We took advantage of the 2 bikes that were included in the rental. So many things to do in spectacular Ventura including biking, kayaking the Channel Islands, seeing the theme parks, & of course just relaxing. The backyard was a perfect setting for hanging out and enjoying a home cooked meal. We had such a wonderful time and created so many precious memories. Thank you Orange Door for being the perfect setting for our get together by the ocean! Margaret (June 2018)

Such a perfect house for a family get-away. Comfy and well-equipped.

This lovely home was such a treat to visit. Great location, comfortable beds. Nicely furnished and decorated. We used the kitchen every day and never lacked a pan or dish. Fantastic host who was easy to communicate with. We will be back.

Charming beach cottage

We stayed for March and April at 1362 Camden Lane. We would loved to have spent the entire winter there, but this is a popular destination. The landlords are helpful and friendly. We never had any issues they didn't deal with immediately. They responded to all or our requests. We love winters in Ventura and this is a perfect place to call home.

About the host

Hosted by Mary Kay Doubek

This photo was taken at one of several vistas along the trail in the Ventura Botanical Gardens. It represents one of several reasons we fell in love with Ventura: Year-round Beautiful Mediterranean Climate. One of Ventura's best-kept secrets is that it is even better after summer vacation.

We transplanted here 13 years ago from LA, which we loved, except for the density, traffic, and daily grind. Now we live just blocks from the vacation rental house and are delighted to share this special place with others.

Why they chose this property

We purchased the beach house from a friend who cherished it. She had a sterling reputation for gracious hospitality. We were honored that she offered the house to us when she decided to follow her dream to work as a full-time writer.

What makes this property unique

Our bungalow lets you experience classic SoCal small town beach living as it was 50 years ago. The Pierpont Lanes are relaxed, friendly, clean, safe, and quiet. Pierpont Beach is one of the very few in California where you are allowed to walk your dog, always on a leash. Many locals and visitors say our neighborhood is a throwback to simpler times, but in the very best way.

You can take a leisurely stroll along the sand while gazing at a majestic sunset, get a great meal on Seaward Avenue, and stop for Surfin' Yogurt on the way home. Shorts, tee shirts, and flip flops are the local uniform.

Our comfortable environment is suited for one to six people, plus up to two dogs under 25 lbs. Whether your objective is to build sandcastles with the kids, write the great American novel, or live like the locals while in Ventura on business, our beach bungalow half a block away from the beautiful Pacific, is just the ticket.
