About this property
Summerland - Ocean View Home, Dogs Welcome!
Poppy's Cottage is a sweet hillside sanctuary overlooking the Pacific Ocean and the Channel Islands. Lovingly maintained gardens, comfortable furnishings, this stand alone cottage has stunning ocean views.
Open the French doors for spacious indoor/outdoor living, watch the sunrise in the east and set in the west. The intimate space is perfect for two and if you travel with your pets, dogs are welcome the yard is completely fenced. When the gardens are in bloom the yard is teaming with birds, butterflies, and sweet smelling blossoms.
Fall in love with Summerland and enjoy the magic it has to offer. Walk to beach, shops, restaurants, bar, parks, and miles of mountain hiking trails right from the front door. It's a quiet town and wonderful to explore on foot with your evening beverage or use hills to workout in the cool mornings.
Summerland is an ideal location to stay and explore the best the Central Coast has to offer. Montecito to the north and Carpinteria south are a ten minute drive. Santa Barbara fifteen minutes away. In our coastal zone there is no end of urban adventuring and nature to experience. The Santa Ynez Valley wine country is 45 to the north and Ojai is 30 minutes east. There is so much to do here and we are happy to share our favorite outings!
Highway 101 and the train run along the ocean, four blocks down from the cottage. With the unobstructed ocean view, you will hear sounds from both. Please consider your sensitivity to urban sounds if you are interested in Summerland. Poppy's Cottage comes equipped with WiFi, a hair dryer, propane BBQ, a washing machine, dryer, and heating. We want you to feel as at home here as we do! Please message before booking if you have special requests. **if you are bring your dogs please message ahead and let me know!

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Sarah Hinton

Hello, I'm Sarah, I'm your host and I grew up on this property - the 70's and 80's in Summerland were a great time to be a kid! It has been in my family since 1968 and is the heart of my family today. Poppy's Cottage is named for my dad, my girls called him Poppy and he loved living here, as do we!
The cottage was built in 1947 and has been lovingly upgraded and cared for with each generation. When I lived in the cottage I planted my dream garden now all summer long guests get to enjoy the plethora of life that comes to flutter through the fragrant blossoms.
My daughter Maia is the cottage stylist, photographer and manages the rental. You can find her working most days at Heidi Merrick CA just at the bottom of the hill. My fiancé and I live in the house behind and are accessible should you have questions or need anything for your stay. I am an experienced super host and just returning to VRBO - message and ask me anything! I've hosted guests from all over the world, come visit Summerland!
Our home is accessed from another street and unless you reach out or specifically ask to meet, we leave you to your privacy. Our cat, Sebastian is a great ambassador and loves to sun on the hot tub lid. Please reach out if you'd like to meet and enjoy your stay!
