My wife and I have a small and separate cottage at the rear of the property, that we stay in while you are our guests in the main house. We occupy the carport which is attached to our unit, and far back patio as well. Access to the detached laundry is provided. We use the driveway to access our unit and carport. Street parking in front of the house is readily available.

Had a great stay at this lovely home. We had plenty of space for our group pf 6 ladies. You can feel the warmth and thoughtfulness of the hosts with the decor and amenities. I especially loved the tree that envelopes their front yard, we were awe with it. Rodney was very responsive and so welcoming as we checked in. Would stay here if we’re in the area again. Thank you!!

We had a wonderful stay at this adorable VRBO! The home was very clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed during our trip. The neighborhood was quiet, charming, and felt very safe and relaxing.The location was about 3 miles north of Downtown Santa Barbara, which worked perfectly for us since we brought our bikes and enjoyed riding into town and along the waterfront each day.The host was extremely kind, responsive, and readily available if we needed anything, as they lived in the ADU onsite. We really appreciated their hospitality while still feeling like we had plenty of privacy during our stay.We would absolutely stay here again and would highly recommend this property to anyone visiting Santa Barbara!

Great Family Stay

Our family of 6 was in Santa Barbara for a family wedding. This was a perfect house and location for us. House is well maintained and Rodney was a very gracious host and we enjoyed spending some time talking and learning about the area. If we ever get back to the area would definitely stay there again!
