The Yellow Cottage of La Jolla is a charming historic Victorian cottage, only three blocks from a semi-private beach, and a three minute drive to the well known La Jolla Cove. Galusha B. Grow built the cottage in 1895 as a summer vacation home. In 1980, it was relocated and renovated by a local historian and her husband. The cottage has been featured in Better Homes and Gardens magazine and many other papers and periodicals. It has only recently become available as a vacation/corporate relocation rental.

This is a great spot to enjoy a glorious sunset, dine on the sand, or swim in the refreshing ocean. If you are a walker or a runner, you will enjoy the three-mile RT jaunt to the La Jolla Cove and back. Many locals make this trek daily. On Sundays you can enjoy walking up to the La Jolla Farmer's Market where produce, flowers, handmade gifts and gourmet items are sold.
Also nearby are the world famous San Diego Zoo, Sea World, Legoland, Torrey Pines Golf Course, Balboa Park, Old Town, Carlsbad Flower Fields, and Coronado Island.
About 1/2 mile from The Yellow Cottage is the public La Jolla Tennis Club and Recreation Center. Almost every evening and on weekends, locals engage in "pick-up" games at the Recreation Center basketball courts. Summer programs (i.e. Day Camps) for children are available daily. The Recreation Center also houses a gym for adults and a playground for children. Scuba diving at the La Jolla Cove Natural Reserve, surfing at the many La Jolla beaches, and kayaking at the La Jolla Shores are other activities locals and visitors enjoy.
