Cozy, charming, and comfortable

After various long-term rentals in Santa Barbara I do think this house ranks number one. With two bedrooms and a bath, it was perfect for me and my husband. We thoroughly enjoyed the front porch and our dog loved the secured back yard. It is in an outstanding location where the best of Santa Barbara is a short walk away. If the beach is your passion it is accessible less than five minutes by car as is the harbor front. Lovely comfortable furnishings include to my delight a piano. We certainly hope to come here and stay on our next visit to SB!

Cute little cottage in a perfect location near downtown Santa Barbara

My wife and I stayed for a month in the cottage while I was visiting colleagues in downtown Santa Barbara. The place was clean, tidy and had everything we needed including cooking facilities, fridge and cupboard space and a laundry with washing and drying machines. The second bedroom was a perfect addition for my wife's brother who came to stay for a few weeks. John was immediately on hand and quick to reply to any issues and Ken, the friendly nextdoor neighbour was such a great help. If we needed to stay in SB again, we would definitely look them up. Recommend strongly to all.

Super convenient

My family stayed at the cottage for almost two months while our house was being renovated. It was super convenient and met all of our needs. The location to State St shopping was great and street parking was easy. It was fenced in so secure for my kids who played in the front yard. Neighbor Ken was really nice. Host John was easy to get a hold of to coordinate our stay.

Sweet spot in central SB

This is like somebody’s grandma’s house with vintage furnishings, at a very good price and pet-friendly. We would go back tomorrow in spite of some minor drawbacks, because it’s a great location and a sweet house. It's on a busy downtown street, there are some homeless around, but we didn’t have parking, noise, or safety concerns and loved sitting out front with our dog (both back and front fenced). Furnishings are all antique, clean and in good repair, though, oddly, all wood tops are covered in glass. The house could really use better lighting & window coverage, and attention to little details like all-cotton sheets and fresher pillows, organization and cleanliness of cleaning supplies, and fewer stored & jumbled items in closets, cupboards, drawers. It would be helpful to provide instructions for the very complicated streaming TV/cable setup. Owner was very kind and easy to work with when it looked like we might need to change our dates in advance. Ken next door was super helpful when the sink leaked and also let our dog out for us the day we went to Channel Islands. We had a good time here, slept well and were able to live comfortably for four weeks. Great location for walking around downtown, and good jumping off point for beach and beyond.
