Great location. Within walking distance of beach and town. Carpenteria had numerous restaurants and shopping to choose from. House was stocked with lots of amenities, more than we needed. Area was experiencing record heat temps when we were there and there is no AC. Lots of fans and early mornings and evenings were pleasant. Nice place to stay, large back yard for fur babies (even tho we didn’t have ours either us).

We enjoyed ourselves very much at this property. We loved the proximity to the beach and all of the amenities such as beach chairs, umbrellas, bikes, boogie boards, board games and a wagon to haul our beach items. The property manager Ruta also gave us solid tips on where to eat & what locations to visit. It was an all around enjoyable stay.

We had a great stay! The place was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed. One of the best parts was how close it was to the beach, it made getting back and forth super easy. The host was friendly and communication was great throughout our stay. We felt comfortable the whole time and would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend!

This location was perfect for our girl's trip! Close to town, the beach, the salt marsh (I recommend the tour), and the Surfliner train takes you to Santa Barbara for only 8 (cheaper than a Lyft/Uber). Host was super nice!
Train Station (Pacific Surfliner) 20 min to Santa Barbara $8 one way.
Beach only a few blocks away
Salt marsh tour - Andrea was an awesome tour guide - very knowledgeable.
Lots of information at Vrbo regarding things to do in the area

Wonderful beach house with lots of space and all the creature comforts you'd expect (internet, TV w/ streaming services, full kitchen, laundry). Our trip was not a beach vacation but the house came with lots of beach equipment, plus an outdoor shower area. The king beds were very comfortable and the house was walking distance to new(ish) Linden Square downtown (10 mins). It also had 4 bikes, which was a nice touch. Would definitely come back!

We loved the close proximity to the beach. Good central location to the area. We were unaware of the trains in back yard, it was not a huge problem as they did not run during night. The 2 bathrooms was unclear due to the 2nd bathroom was not located near the bedrooms, made it hard for 2 separate couples traveling together with the 2nd bathroom being located in basement/garage area. We made it work. The beach house was charming and all of the places to sit and be amongst friends locally and traveling with was great! Thank you for offering your home to us.

We loved staying in a small town for a month with access to everything. This beach house had everything you need and way more! Wonderful for dogs and easy to keep clean. It was clean and tidy and had every amenity we could want. We made great use of the bicycles. For us coming from the mountains, the train was fun for a couple of weeks and then felt loud to us. But overall, it added to the vibe of being close to the coast.Thank you for opening your home to us.

The second-story porch is wonderful with sunset views and lovely peeks of the ocean. We also enjoyed the mountain views from the living room (upstairs as well). The kitchen is big and very well stocked. Both upstairs bedrooms are large and airy with comfortable beds. We stayed a month during the Christmas holiday, a rain storm and mostly lovely weather. Ruta is a great host and makes sure you are comfortable. We'd definitely stay again. Thanks, Ruta.

Perfect Place to Vacation

We loved staying in this Beach House! It was so comfy and warm! There was so much room to relax and enjoy our visit. The kitchen was very well supplied, and the back yard was perfect for play time. It was clean as a whistle, and the communication with the owner was easy and straightforward. Highly recommended!
