Vintage Surf Hut by Coastline Vacation Rentals
Step inside and feel time slow down. This isn’t just a place to stay — it’s a unique retro surf shack with mid-century charm, funky details, and a laid-back vibe that makes you want to toss your flip-flops in the corner and settle right in. Once the home of legendary local surfer Skip Frye, this stay exudes history and charm.
Inside, vintage touches mix with comfort — warm wood tones, eclectic décor, and a lived-in, welcoming feel. The cozy living room is perfect for game nights or movie marathons, the kitchen is ready for everything from quick breakfasts to fresh fish tacos, and there’s room for everyone to rest comfortably. The bedroom features a queen bed and a twin bed with trundle, while the futon-style sofa in the living area provides extra sleeping space.
Step outside to the front balcony with a peek-a-boo view of the sparkling bay, or gather on the private patio around the fire pit for cozy evenings under the stars. Right across the street, you’ll find a lush park with plenty of grass, a playground with swings, and the local library — perfect for a picnic, kids’ playtime, or just soaking up the neighborhood’s relaxed energy.
For your beach days, we’ve got you covered with a wagon, beach chairs, two boogie boards, and beach towels so you can spend more time by the water and less time worrying about what to pack.
From here, you’re minutes from all the fun in Pacific Beach — cafés, beach bars, bike rentals, and miles of boardwalk to explore. Whether you’re here for surf, sunshine, or simply a unique and playful home base, this stay delivers personality, history, and comfort in equal measure.
Come for the location, stay for the experience, and leave with the kind of memories that feel like summer vacation stories you’ll tell for years.
Guests have full access to the upstairs apartment of a 2-unit building. There is private parking for up to 2 vehicles in the gated driveway. Free street parking is also available.

While children and little ones are definitely welcome, please note that the home is quirky and includes several features that may not suit all families — including multiple stairs, a faux fish tank with open water, glass doors, and a drop-off leading into the bathroom area. We recommend reviewing these details and deciding if this listing is the best fit before booking. If you feel it will work for you, we’d be delighted to host your stay!
Like many homes by the coast, we do not have air conditioning. We do provide fans in the rooms for your comfort. Feel free to open the windows, let the ocean air flow, and enjoy the unique charm of Pacific Beach
