Very nice relaxing stay. Family of 5 had a great time. Rick and Lynn are great commicators and very friendly. Easy to reach the home and owners. Highly recommend and would book again
We loved staying in this wonderful home. It was welcoming, clean, and comfortable. The location was great for getting out and exploring the beaches and community. Rick and Lynne were in residence in the separate cottage on the property while we were there. We crossed paths outside a couple of times. They are so friendly, ready to answer touristy questions, while also being completely considerate of their guests' privacy. If you are considering staying here, everyone in our party highly recommends it.
Hosts were very friendly. Although they were located in a separate building on the property they definitely gave us our space. The house is just lovely and has a very well equipped kitchen. This was a perfect location for us as we were visiting family in Goleta.
Thank you to the gracious hosts for making us feel like a home away from home. The house was fully stocked, impeccably clean and spacious. Wonderful for children with many books and toys while the backyard is fully enclosed and private. A fantastic neighborhood close to everything. Quiet and peaceful- great for relaxing and recharging!
It was a great weekend getaway. We couldn't have asked for more. We would love to go back in the future. Thanks for the hospitality.
We very much enjoyed our stay at Rick and Lynne’s home. With two young kids, it was important for us to find a kid friendly house and their place had everything you need and more to offer. It was truly home away from home kind of experience. Furthermore, Rick and Lynne even went above and beyond to help us by driving down some of our stuff that wouldn’t fit in our rental car to our next hotel location.
This was our second time staying at the property for some of us. The house is well furnished both for small children and for our group of five 55+ siblings and a spouse. We appreciate the warmth and helpfulness of hosts Lynne and Rick who are 100% respectful of our privacy. We hope to return for another stay and will recommend this VRBO to our cousins who also visit Santa Barbara.
This is our second time staying here. We loved our first stay, even more our second, and we are confident we will be back. This house is fully equipped and is great for a solo trip, couples but even better for a family. The house is comfortable, has AC, great amenities, toys and books for kids, beach towels, tv… The house is in a quiet location, and even though the hosts live at backyard cottage, it felt very private. We personally love saying hi to them. They are knowledgeable, kind and always available. The backyard is spacious and has a lovely fireplace. We enjoy grabbing a sip of wine at the end of the day and making s’mores with our daughter.
This house is a gem for a great visit to Santa Barbara or Goleta. Very nice living space for a dinner party - we were very comfortable with a group of six. The bedrooms are just as described and beds are comfortable. House was very clean and appliances are excellent. We did not meet the hosts but they were most helpful with a couple of questions and responded quickly. We had a great time and had no complaints. Thank you, Rick and Lynn for helping us have a fun San Marcos reunion!
I can't use enough adjectives to describe how wonderful it was to stay at Rick and Lynne's place. We were a party of 6, with two small children. The home is supremely well-equipped, immaculately clean, and simultaneously a children's delight and child-proof. It's welcoming and homey, decorated in bright colors with interesting touches and yet totally comfortable. Even better, the spirit of the home invites relaxation and joy. We were in Santa Barbara for our son's wedding, which meant there were a lot of activities on the weekend. The home made it possible for us to be on the go and then come back to a cocoon of rest and beauty. I don't think we would have had such a magical weekend without this respite. You'll be just as satisfied as we were! It will be our Santa Barbara go-to from now on.
Great at communication. Emailed everything we possibly need to know and expect from the stay to the check-in and making sure that our stay is comfortable with our 14 months old baby! Provided us with toys. Our baby didn't really play with them but enjoyed the children's books also available for use. Even provided us with a pack and play without us asking for one. The property is a little small drive to State street but we were also going to Solvang so the property worked out for us. We would definitely recommend you staying here with family and friends.
Fantastic house! Wonderful neighborhood, we had all the amenities, backyard was beautifully. Our hosts were very gracious. We would definitely come back in the future!!
We had an amazing time visiting our children at UCSB. The house was great with a very nice yard and in a good location. It had an easy location near the freeway.
