Secluded Historic House Near the Santa Barbara Mission

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our time at this property. Not only did we have a great host but it really felt like home. Highly recommend this to anyone looking for an authentic Santa Barbara experience and super close to the Mission and Rose Garden.

If there were a way to rate beyond 10, we would! This home was not just a place for our family of three generations to stay and gather for our daughter's graduation from UCSB, it was an integral part of the wonder and magic of a beautiful weekend celebration. There are no better hosts on VRBO than Dru and Jana. The home is historic and classically Santa Barbara - wonderfully updated while maintaining the integrity of the home's history. Dru met the first guests to arrive (the grandparents) and shared the history of the home and other details. Since they had just arrived via the airport, it was thoughtful that our hosts provided wine, snacks and coffee for weary travelers who had not been to the store yet. The airy, open, well-appointed home with fabulous bed linens could only be surpassed by the spectacular, secluded, shaded backyard. We spent most of our time visiting outside in what felt like a private, lush oasis. The home was spotless, spacious, cozy and fresh. We will talk about our special time spent at Stonehaven for years to come.

Absolutely outstanding property. Quality, cleanliness and support by the owner is right up there with staying at the El Encanto.

Such amazing guests and home!

My husband and I enjoyed everything about this property (in fact I would give my left arm for this house lol) The property owners are absolute gems and if you need anything they are more than willing to help out with whatever questions you have or anything you need. The house was spotless. The backyard is STUNNING and the layout worked for our event perfectly. Since it was November we rented 4 heaters from Super Party Rentals they were timely and it was a good amount of coverage that kept us and our guests comfortable. I would highly recommend this property for couples or families looking for a good time in Santa Barbara :)

We had a wonderful time in this beautiful home. Immaculate, very kind hosts - will definitely return.

My friends had a great time staying at this beautiful home. Jana and Dru were excellent communicators and made the whole process seamless. The house is very well appointed and the backyard is truly magical. Also they left us a whole baskets of treats, wine, coffee etc which was so generous. I would absolutely stay here again!

Host Dru made certain that our stay was indeed truly magnificent. He reached out in advance, welcomed us upon our arrival, and made himself available for anything we might need thought our visit. The Stonehaven property was incredible with 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, expansive group areas and a beautiful yard to enjoy. Thank you!!

I cannot say enough good things about Jana and Dru and their property! First off, the house and grounds are beautiful. It is actually even bigger in person. There are also two indoor dining areas and a laundry space which is really nice. But what was truly outstanding is how above and beyond Jana and Dru went with our stay. We actually used the house as the home base for getting ready for my wedding and for the rehearsal dinner. They were so accommodating and really did everything they could to make sure we had the best experience possible. I highly recommend this VRBO, and I’d definitely recommend looking into it if you are getting married at the SB Woman’s Club!

The property is perfectly located on private lane in the oaks on a hill just up from the Mission and its beautiful park (ten min walk). But is only 1.25 mile from the action on State Street. Stars at night and QUIET. Maybe an owl's hoot. Garden is spacious and well maintained; handy BBQ. 3 lovely bed rooms and bath rooms all right up to date. Brand new kitchen. . Managers are right next door. We loved it.
