All your needs are provided for just 3 blocks from the house. We have provided 2 surfboards and 2 boogie boards with towels and beach chairs for your use at the beach.

Great house, great location
Guest: Belmont Family

Our Family of 5 stayed here and had a great time. The house is in great condition and gave everyone their own space. The yard is very well kept and this includes a great patio for dining. The location can't be beat - 2 blocks to shops, 2 blocks to the beach. The best part is the beach stuff(boogie boards, chairs, sand toys and wagon) that comes with the rental. The outdoor shower is great for getting all the beach sand off you at the end of the day. We can't wait to go back!

Beautiful bungalow in a nice town

We were 3 couples who spent 4 days in this wonderful house. It looks rather small in the photos, but it was spacious enough. We were warm welcomed by the hosts and they were helpful in every way. The house was clean and well-maintained. The photos reflects very well the rental's appearance. I would definitive recommend this for guests seeking a house nearby the beach and walking distance to a quiet and charming town.

Charming in every way!

It was perfect! The cottage welcomed us with a vase of flowers. There were a few items on the coffee table and around, but not enough "stuff" to be cluttered in any way. It was very clean. It was 2 blocks from the beach/state park, so we took walks on the beach several times over the weekend. Walking into the town was about a 4 block walk. Once the cars were parked, we didn't use them! I would absolutely recommend this property.

This is a fantastic find

We stayed here over Spring Break 2011 and really enjoyed the amenities this bungalow had to offer as well as it's location just a few hundred yards away from the state beach park and central Carpenteria. You really can park your car in the driveway and walk to the downtown shops, grocery store and restaurants. The home is well stocked, very well maintained, and has everything you'd expect in an upscale home including whopping fast internet and beach gear (including a soft sand wagon). The owners Don and Patti have thought of everything to make your stay as comfortable as possible. We are vacation rental owners ourselves, and have taken back some tips on this home. We will DEFINITELY return to enjoy the sun and surf!
