Carpinteria, California
Very comfortable and well appointed home on one half acre with lots of trees, grass, beautiful landscape-all the comforts of home without any of the usual responsibilities.
Located just 2 miles from the beach community of Carpinteria and an even shorter distance to the quaint little beach town of Summerland, and about 5 miles from downtown Santa Barbara where you will find 'fine to funky' dining, outdoor cafes, a great zoo, museums, street musicians, beautiful beaches, and plenty of outdoor activities for everyone in the family.
Enjoy relaxing afternoons around the pool and jacuzzi (pool is heated June-Sept. and jacuzzi is 'good to go' year round) on your new 1400 sq. Ft deck where you will find plenty of sun or shade to read that book you have not found the time to get around to. There are many different areas to relax and even your own beach overlooking the pool.
If you are a horse lover (even if you aren't!), take in an afternoon polo match played by the top polo players in the world (May-September). This is where Prince William played in the summer of 2011-for what ever THAT'S worth!
Or if you are more inclined to a more active stay, take a run, walk or bike ride on several trails that are near by.
Make this your home away from home for all your get-away trips to beautiful Santa Barbara!

This property is absolutely amazing! Beautiful, well kept, perfect location that is quiet but close to everything. The yard is breathtaking and the pool and deck are spectacular for relaxing and for family fun. The hosts are wonderful--kind, helpful and so inviting. We hope to return again and again!
Really enjoyed Ed and Joan’s place!
The home and property were just as described in the VRBO post. Plenty of outdoor space to chill and relax. Cute beach area at the far end of pool and deck. We were 5 (grandma, and family of four.) Comfortable indoor spaces. Bedrooms were comfortable with great bedding. Owners were nearby and checked in to see we had what we needed. Joan and Ed were lovely and their home was filled with love. We explored nearby beaches and the laid back Carpinteria beach town. Coming from Los Angeles we were thrilled and amazed at the lack of crowds. Lots of people enjoying the area and the beaches, but never a problem finding parking or having to wait in long lines.
We so enjoyed our stay, the home, outdoor gardens, deck and pool were a perfect venue for the long weekend. We were in town to visit family and attend a graduation. The property is lovingly mai tained and host and hostess great!
We stayed for our daughter's beach wedding in Carpintaria. The house gave great access to downtown Carpintaria and quick access to Santa Barbara. The house was well appointed and the back decks were a great place to hang out in comfort. There is a park at exit 90 (close to house) that provides good access to a very nice beach and if you like horses, you can check out the polo club which is also walking distance. Would stay there again if in the area.
We have had the most wonderful stay in Santa Barbara. Ed and Joan could not have been more accommodating, in touch, kind etc. The house is superbly equipped, clean, comfortable and the knock out for us was the pool, our 3 children adored it. As many reviews say, the photos don’t do it justice. Do not hesitate to book this, it is brilliant. Also, so so well located, wonderful beaches, restaurants, City. Enjoy!
Quiet, relaxing and beautiful!
My family and I stayed at Joan and Ed's beautiful home for 3 nights. The location was perfect and the pictures of the house don't do it justice! The house had everything we needed and more and the backyard was absolutely wonderful. We have already talked about our next stay! Book this home, you won't be disappointed!
A sweet surprise of happy birthday banner and treats awaited me on my arrival. Very relaxing weekend, great pool, very clean home in lovely neighborhood
From the moment Ed picked us up (added bonus) he and his wife Joan could not have been more gracious. The home and the property were immaculate. In fact the photos don’t do it justice. The gardens, yard and pool had so many vantage points for maximum enjoyment. This place lacks nothing and the ambiance will have you wanting to come back. What a pleasure.
This home was perfect for our family of 4! The neighborhood is nice, home is clean, the beds are comfy, the grounds are truly something out of a magazine, and the location is perfect! We particularly loved the little beach town of Carpenteria - such a fun place, with cute stores and local restaurants. Santa Barbara is a quick 10 minute drive north, and Los Angeles is about 1.5 hours south (depending on traffic). The hosts are very easy to communicate with, and take obvious pride in their home. We hope to come back soon!
Beautiful property demonstrating the grace of the owners.
Ed and Joan a are warm engaging couple that had us feel at home. We look forward to returning.
