Great location!!! We rented bikes for a few days and biked everywhere (we were able to store them in the garage) The house was perfect for my family while we were in Santa Barbara for a wedding. It had everything we needed and then some. The grounds were awesome- even a lemon tree!

We loved our long weekend stay at Juniper Cottage. The place itself is very well maintained and has everything and more for an extended visit. And, it’s so quiet! Although it is merely steps to the beach, the neighborhood is residential and family friendly. We will definitely be back!
