Elena Johnson -Feb 2009
"We enjoyed your cottage so much! It was our home and working base for the week of our daughter's wedding. This cottage gave us all a place to be at home-away-from-home. Thank you so much for such a wonderful memory."

We really liked this place. We actually live in Santa Barbara but our house got flooded so we were staying here and we loved it! -May 2007
We had a wonderful time in your cottage while visiting our daughter and sister who lives in Goleta. It was a very special time since we celebrated our father’s 80th birthday. The cottage is a lovely place to stay. It was very warm and cozy. We’ll definitely keep it in mind for the next time. (The Netherlands – Europe) March 20-April 2, 2006
"We had three very good weeks in this cottage in a charming locality. It gave us a chance to see all of Santa Barbara and to appreciate it's beauty. The weather was kind to us overall. We found the facilities in the cottage excellent and have enjoyed our visit. Thank you." (England) Jeanne and John -Sept. 16 – Oct. 2005

Map & Owner's Profile
Butterfly Cottage # a
Year Purchased: 2004
Why the Owner Chose San Roque
Our three Cottages are very charming inside and out(you might think you have arrived at 5 star B&B when approaching the property). The landscape area...Collapse
&...Collapse neighborhood surrounding the three Cottages matches the Cottages them selves. The San Roque area neighborhood is a very desirable area for locals to purchase Real Estate because of its family oriented life style and sought after school district. Also its proximity to beaches , shopping and Wine Country. We invested here because of all of these reasons.
Owner's Map of San Roque
My wife & I have lived in Santa Barbara for 29 yrs and invite you to come visit our Charming Cottages. There is no place like Santa Barbara in the world and we think you will agree with us after you have stayed with us in the heart of the Santa Barbara. Known as the American Riviera.
