The Cottages of Crystal Cove
By Linda Tancs
Located off Pacific Coast Highway between Corona del Mar and Laguna Beach, California’s scenic Crystal Cove State Park boasts a Historic District comprising an enclave of 46 vintage rustic coastal cottages originally built as a seaside colony by campers in the early 20th century. At the southernmost point in the district you’ll find a famous landmark often referred to as the “Beaches” Cottage, so named for its beachside portrayal in the 1988 film starring Bette Midler of the same name. The cottage has been transformed into the Beaches Film & Media Center to commemorate Crystal Cove’s cinematic roots and is open for guided tours during the summer. Many of the iconic cottages are also available for rental by the public.
