Beautiful home, will definitely book again

Our stay at this Santa Barbara Foothills home was excellent. The house is clean, spacious, and well-equipped. The large garden with outdoor seating was nice for relaxing. The washer, dryer, and parking made things convenient, and it’s pet-friendly, which worked well for our dogs. The location is close to Santa Barbara attractions. The hosts were friendly and great to work with. Would definitely book again.

Wonderful family holiday property

When looking for a place to spend the holidays, we look for coziness and convenience. This property and the hosts filled the bill. It was easy to access and just as described in the listing. And the hosts went to extra step to even include a bit of holiday lighting and decor! Communication with the hosts was easy and helpful. We would definitely consider returning in the future!

Pleasant Stay

Stayed here while we were visiting extended family in the area for a weekend. Check-in was very easy, and all the basics we needed were in the home. House has a beautiful backyard and is in a convenient location. The only small bummer was the traffic noise along Cathedral Oaks throughout the night was tough to sleep through. Otherwise a pleasant stay. It would be a great place to stay if you have kids given the terrific backyard!

Great for Families

A perfect large, comfortable home for families. Everything a person could possible need to stay for a week or so is provided in the home, even an iron and ironing board for those last minute wrinkles. Warm, comfortable, inviting, and lots of eclectic art pieces for your viewing pleasure. Extremely clean. I highly recommend renting this home. Hopefully, we will be coming back, too!

The house was perfect, clean & spacious with a grill available for use. Definitely plan on returning

This was the perfect spot to reunite with friends. There were plenty of beds & all amenities available for use (grill, kitchenware, towels & blankets) w complementary wine from Thomas. It was a 15 min uber ride to the beach & bars in downtown Santa Barbara. The weather was perfect! Definitely would plan another trip to SB! Thank you!

Beautiful Property & Great Neighborhood

I traveled to SB/Goleta for the first time w/ my 2 small Shiba Inu dogs. I was very pleased with this property. Not only was it very clean and comfortable, it has an incredible backyard that enabled my dogs to run around and wear themselves out. Also a great neighborhood for dogwalks. Property is in close proximity to 101 freeway, stores and restaurants. Property owners were very quiet & respectful of privacy. Definitely recommend.

Nice, Well Equipped House in Goleta

The house was very nice, clean, comfortable, and has a lovely back yard. Two bedrooms face a busy road but it quiets down at night. The kitchen was very well equipped with lots of cooking and eating utensils, pots, pans, plates, etc. We had a minor issue with the icemaker and some kitchen outlets not working, but these were easily worked around. Overall the house was perfect for our trip to celebrate our daughter's UCSB graduation.

Very comfortable home

The house was wonderful, and the owners were warm, welcoming, and friendly. The backyard is beautiful, and was a perfect place to hang out and relax after a day of sightseeing. The location is great - approximately half way between the UCSB campus and downtown, and a short drive to Highway 101. The yard was great for our little dogs, and we could relax because the space was securely fenced. Of the four adults in our group, I'm the lightest sleeper (and should emphasize that I'm an EXTREMELY light, ultra-sensitive, sleeper). The other three adults had no trouble sleeping, but the road traffic was enough to wake me in the early hours (I was in one of the front bedrooms). But the others had no problem at all. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again -- I'd just request the back (master) bedroom. On this trip, we gave that room to my 90-year old dad, so he could have his own bathroom, and be able to find it easily in the middle of the night. We loved the lemon, orange, and avocado trees, and we even juiced some oranges using the home's juicer. This house was awesome.

Nice Place But Noisy Street

The house was clean and it was easy to converse with the owners. Our experience with the neighborhood is that the street was very busy and noisy, especially at night. With two bedrooms facing the street the noise throughout the night was an issue. That is the main reason I did not rate this place any higher than three stars. This was the first place we have stayed that did not have a 'book of information' about the city and surrounding area. Not a big deal, but it is something for the owners to think about. Some area attractions, maps, menus, locations of stores or museums, etc. would be helpful.
