Comfortable cottage tucked away from the street. Very quiet at all hours. It is as small as it looks in the pictures, but worked well for me. Host was very responsive.

Amazing experience and host!

A quaint cottage that has everything you need for a short term stay. Great location near to State St in a quiet suburban neighborhood. Fully furnished with a comfortable bed, fast internet, and good water pressure. Easy street parking just beware of street sweeping to avoid tickets. Access to a private garden to enjoy some downtime and fret natural light from it. The outside W/D kept noise down and I could barely hear it when running both. The dryer can take a second cycle when doing a big load or having a few towels in there. I recommend choosing the high heat setting and running it for ~90min. We initially had some problems with ants due to weather changes but Suzanne responded and helped take care of the problem the same day. It can get cold in there during the winter but again Suzanne provided a space heater right after messaging her. Overall, I would stay here again if I was to visit SB. Suzanne is a perfect accommodating host.

Amazing and convenient location for a short or long stay.

Very convenient location, close to basically everything Santa Barbara has to offer. The little back yard makes a nice place to hang out if you receive company, just minutes to State Street if you feel not to drive and just have a pleasant walk. 100% recommended if you ever want to stop by Santa Barbara and have a cutesy homey place to stay.

Hi, my husband and I rehabbed this cute little cottage during the pandemic for our family to use but are happy to rent it to guests for longer term stays. Email me if you have questions. We are Santa Barbara locals and enjoy living downtown.

Why they chose this property

Location, location, location. This cute and private cottage is located within walking distance to all Santa Barbara has to offer. Walk to the parks and downtown. Enjoy the cute yard year around, it's Santa Barbara.

What makes this property unique

Quiet, nice yard, lots of old charm. Bathroom and kitchen were remodeled in 2020; yard was landscaped in 2021 with new patio.
