Stayed here for many years

The location is perfect. Kate is a pleasure as a host. We return yearly because we enjoy staying at Kate's house so very much. This year my husband had to have an emergency root canal. Kate was kind enough to find us a dentist and endodontist near by. She goes above and beyond to make you stay pleasant and care-free.

The BEST Home on Balboa Peninsula

We had the most amazing stay with our family of 4. Communication with the owner was great from the moment we booked. She truly goes out of her way to make sure guests are comfortable and enjoy their stay. The house had everything you could possible need and then some. We were even greeted with snacks, cute dog Christmas napkins and a welcome note. The home is steps from the beach access which we enjoyed daily. We also enjoyed the gas fire pit in the back courtyard. All of Newport was very busy, but this home tucked further down on Balboa Peninsula was very peaceful and parking was not a problem. I highly recommend it over staying on Balboa Island which was jammed with people. This is a place where wonderful memories with your family and friends can be made. We can't wait to come back!

About the host

Hosted by Kate Rhymer

Hi, I'm Kate! I've been managing our home on VRBO since 2016, and I love knowing that I'm helping families create their own memories in our little cottage! I live in Los Angeles, have 3 grown kids who all live in the LA area, and have a crazy dog named Echo. I've been involved with a maternity shelter for homeless pregnant women for years, and coordinate the volunteers there. I'm a huge LA Dodgers fan, have just started playing pickle ball, like to travel, and love sitting out on the beach for sunset. Hope you love our little house!!

Why they chose this property

Our family began vacationing in Newport Beach in 1996, when our children were young. We started out on Balboa Island, but then fell in love with the Balboa Peninsula. We've been coming to Newport Beach for 26 years and our (now grown) children have the best memories of riding bikes, jumping in the waves, and eating Balboa Bars! We loved being able to rent and stay in the same house for 10 years - there was something so comforting and familiar about knowing what to expect when we would arrive each summer. We hope our house can provide many years of memories for our guests.

We bought this charming cottage in 2005, and loved the neighborhood and how close we are to the beach. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do!!

What makes this property unique

Our home has a unique warm and welcoming feel as soon as you walk in the front door!! We are located at the quiet end of the charming Peninsula Point neighborhood. Fabulous spot for a family vacation, or a girl's getaway. Great location for bike riding - you can park your car and not move it for days! Grab your beach chairs and towels - the sand is just steps away. Make sure you take the ferry over to Balboa Island and do a little shopping on Marine Avenue - and a Balboa Bar is a must! We love to grill in the backyard and then enjoy dinner on the front porch - but we always love to go out to the sand for the gorgeous sunsets. One of our favorite things is to sit around the fire pit in the back yard and make s'mores in the summer time. Our family has been coming to this area for 26 years - it's our little slice of paradise!!
