Spectacular old growth live oak trees dot the property and provide welcome shade to relax under to enjoy our warm Montecito weather.

rainy days in paradise
We’d planned our stay in Montecito to take advantage of the outdoors, wanting to walk along the beach, hike in hills, etc. The cottage seemed perfectly designed for outdoor living with its french doors and lovely yard. Unfortunately, the Santa Barbara area was hit with a horrendous December storm and we spent most of our holiday inside. The cottage was still lovely, with the large modern TV offering much entertainment and the beautiful bedroom offering cozy respite from the weather. We did manage to get some dog walks in, walking up the road, which is beautiful and peaceful. Would definitely stay here again.

great birthday weekend getaway
what was especially nice about this property in Montecito, unlike so many other choices was that it was not near the freeway

Perfect!
Annette’s guest cottage was the perfect size and location for our stay. The bed is comfortable, the kitchen had what we needed, and it’s very quiet. Easy access to the freeway and very close to restaurants and shopping. Annette is friendly and communicates promptly. We would definitely stay there again! KC and Ann

Beautiful, private, and peaceful
I visited for several days and just loved the property. Tucked away but easily accessible, it’s wonderfully private and very calming. Convenient kitchen, very nice bathroom/shower, and comfy bed. I already plan to be back!

About the host

Hosted by Todd and Annette Waltze

Host profile image
We purchased this property in 2017 and have been busy renovating it since then. This guest cottage is our most recent success. We are so proud of it and want to share it with our guests. We live in the main house full time. The guest cottage is completely private and neither of us will even know each other are there, but you can rest assured that we are right there to help with any issues you may encounter, large or small.

Why they chose this property

We purchased this property because of its classic California ranch style, the beautiful oak trees and the large 1 acre flat useable lot allows for gardens everywhere, which we just love.

What makes this property unique

It is incredibly quite here. Most sounds are from the local wildlife.
