Gorgeous and relaxing!

2nd time staying here. The cottage is so relaxing. The garden is beautiful and diverse! The lemon and orange trees, along with the many flowers can be enjoyed in the air. Kathy is a wonderful host. Generous with the fresh picked lemons. I will always plan my stay in the area centered around her cottage. Simply lovely.

Cozy Cottage

A bright and airy little cottage that is just right for one or two people. As we were visiting someone at Vandenberg Space Force Base, the location was very convenient. Easy access, a nicely appointed kitchen, good WiFi and being a tea drinker, I personally appreciated the electric hot water kettle. Although our schedules did not allow us to meet, the owner was very nice and responded quickly to my texted questions.

Cozy and Cute

Traveling with my husband and our dog for a three-night stay. We come up to Santa Inez Valley once or twice a year and enjoy staying in Lompoc because it's quiet and laid back. The cottage was cute and cozy, near downtown Lompoc and a nice park. The kitchen though tiny was well appointed and efficient (I cooked most of our meals). We loved the yard with its fruit trees, and our dog had a good time playing with the owner's dogs who are not shy about coming to the door for a treat! Kathy, the owner was great, and we definitely look forward to visiting again.

Quiet Cottage

The cottage is cute and conviniently located in a quiet, residential area. The bathroom was recently updated as were most kitchen appliences. The towels and sheets looked new. Kathy was very helpful and communicated well. The apples and oranges from the trees in the back yard were wonderful and the dogs were friendly! However, the couch, ottoman and rug were worn and less than clean. Whoever rented before us did not wash dishes very well. We pulled out several cups, bowls and pans that were not clean and had to be washed before using. It's a good value for the area. All in all, we had a great stay.
