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 dine, even your own beach overlooking the pool.

World class Polo matches are played 1 mi away from May to September, at the SB Polo and Racket Club. Horse rentals are available 1 mi away with rides to the beach. Or you might want to join a wine tasting tour. There are many horse trails nearby (down the block) which allow riding, walking, or biking by pastures and creeks. Truly a beautiful area.

Make this your home away from home for all your get-away trips to beautiful Santa Barbara! Please read our reviews for more information. We have satisfied and enthusiastic guests!

    Wonderful well kept home in a great location for our girls trip. Close to activities and restaurants that were on our to do list. The gardens were extensive and gave the home both beauty and privacy. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub as well. Very quiet neighborhood. Close to the 101. Our hosts were delightful and excellent communicators! Highly recommend.

    All I can say is WOW - just WOW. Amazing place for our family weekend. Short drive to Santa Barbara, and a dip in the pool when you get back. And the yard is so relaxing and peaceful.

    The pool and hot tub were perfect for relaxing and play. Big screen TV kept the teens entertained with movies and shows. Santa Claus beach is nearby and had lots of fun waves. East Beach in Santa Barbara was also a short drive away. Kitchen worked well for cooking and there is a nice dining room table as well.

    This house is like a delightful retreat not far outside of Santa Barbara! The house is very nice and cozy, it has everything you need and is super clean, and the gardens are spectacular! Now let’s talk about the backyard pool area…it’s just amazing! We felt like we were tucked away in a little paradise! The owners are quick to respond to questions, and so nice and helpful. We would most definitely stay here again!

    We had an absolutely wonderful last-minute getaway over Memorial Day weekend at this beautiful home with my son, daughter-in-law, and grandson. From the moment we arrived, it felt like a true home away from home. The house is incredibly spacious and quiet, perfect for relaxing and spending quality family time.Joan, the host, was amazing—warm, welcoming, and incredibly thoughtful. She made sure we had all her contact info in case we needed anything, and I genuinely enjoyed our conversations throughout the stay.The home was fully stocked with plenty of towels for both the pool and showers, and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook and enjoy meals together. The furniture was cozy and comfortable, making every space feel inviting. If you need time to unwind—like we did—there’s plenty of seating inside and out to read a book, play games with the family, or cook out on the grill.The master bedroom opens right onto the patio, just steps from the pool—such a peaceful and private setup. The yard is an absolute oasis—lush, serene, and beautifully maintained. So much better than being cooped up in a hotel room. And let me just say: the pictures do not do this home justice. It’s even more beautiful in person, with whimsical decor that adds charm without being overdone.Location-wise, it's ideal—just a few miles from Santa Barbara and about an hour from the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone.

    The house was comfortable, beautiful, and well-supplied. The owners were friendly and accommodating, letting us check in early on the 4th of July. The garden was spectacular, the deck inviting and spacious. Everyone, from age 10 to 78, thoroughly enjoyed the stay.

    This home was conveniently located to SantaBarbara, beaches, restaurants and more. The home was comfortable the owners who stayed in a separate dwelling on the property were warm and friendly. There are multiple outdoor seating areas and a lovely pool. If you are looking for a quiet retreat this is a great choice.
