About the host

Hosted by Lisa Martyn

Host profile image
Hello ~ I grew up coming to Carpinteria from my hometown of Burbank. I LOVE this amazing town and am very grateful for all the memories! Although my kids (now adults) were born and raised in Ohio, they also love Carp!

Why they chose this property

The location is PERFECT ~ 1 block from the beach and 1 block to the main street of Carpinteria, Linden. It's very walkable, even with little ones. There's a park at one end of the street and a nature preserve at the other end.
The house is set up very well and the large, fenced in backyard is PERFECT too! (Large enough space for a basketball hoop, a firepit table, a barbeque, outdoor dining and a grass area for yard games.)

What makes this property unique

I've enjoyed hosting and sharing my home for 17 years ~ I am truly a host that has taken great pride in creating a space that allows my guests to have a wonderful stay and create special Carp memories of their own!

Thank you for considering my home for your time in Carpinteria!
