Nice place

Love that it was easy to get online , the house was perfect for 7 adults, each of the bedrooms had its own bathroom. Had plenty of towels and linen. Was only there for 2 nights, very lovely home. I would recommend it for any family with pets. I would definitely stay again.

Noisy

The house is near the coast, so does not have air conditioning. This means you need to keep the windows open to cool the house down during the warmer months. Unfortunately that also means opening the house to the freeway noise and pot smokers next door. The house directly backs up to the freeway and it was so loud we barely got any sleep. I guess that might be ok if you plan to nap on the beach during the day.

High School Girlfriends Reunion

The hosts were very nice and accomodating. Staying in Carpenteria was a perfect location. Walking to the beach is not practical but it's only less than a five minute drive to Loon Point. We all appreciated having our own bedrooms and each having our own bathroom too. The layout of the house worked well and were comfortable relaxing in the home. All amenities were thoughtfully provided. The background noise of the 101 freeway took getting used to but does not outweigh the benefits of this lovely home.

perfect stay

This house was perfect for our family of six. There were four bedrooms each with its own bathroom. The community space was plenty big for not only us but our two dogs. Although it was close to the freeway we did not hear the traffic. Getting on and off the freeway to head to Santa Barbara was very easy. We also went to a dog beach about two miles away that had a convenient dog bathing facility. If you are looking for something in or near SB this place works great.

Family Fun

We so enjoyed this lovely home with four bedrooms and a bathroom for every room. It was so easy to reach the owners with a couple of questions, who themselves happened to be in Hawaii babysitting their grandchildren. I only have a couple of suggestions for safety and comfort. The futon in the downstairs bedroom needed to have a comfortable topping for the mattress because futons notoriously are pretty uncomfortable to sleep on. The other thing for safety would be gripper strips or rubber pads in the tubs as they were very slippery and had no safety bars to hang on to.( I am an older adult, so this was important). We had an absolutely amazing fun time with our family and thank the owners very much for sharing their home with us! Oh, – – – we also saw our first polo match which happened to be a final, and was less than a mile away. So much fun!!

Leaves much to desire

We stayed 4 days and 4 nights at this place, costing 3K. The place was reasonably clean but the carpets had stains and the walls too. The place definitely can use a fresh coat of paint. Fixtures, furniture, linens, towels and everything else is very dated and average at best. The kitchen was not well stocked - no ziplock bags or Saran Wrap or Aluminum foil. We had to get coffee, sugar. There were left over cookies and tea bags from who knows when in the kitchen cabinets. One set of place mats was old and warped. The trash bins in the bathroom were without liners. The front and back yards were nicely landscaped and pretty

handy location, reasonable comfort, but cleanliness issues

Reasonable place for 6-7 people close to Santa Barbara/Carpinteria LOCATION: on higher speed arterial behind a freeway not great for aesthetics, but it is easy to access for car/bike outings, while not great for walking. Freeway noise is tolerable. The rooms are convenient, including main floor bedroom w/ futon for avoiding stairs. VIBE/SETUP: functional & pleasant enough but not going for a "destination" feel. While mostly "as advertised" a few thing were not quite accurate/inadequate: utensils/flatware/dinnerware were spartan in places (few flatware items – needed to hand wash before using dishwasher), missing scraper/spent spatulas/etc, no garlic press, tho specialty items like mixer were there. We had to buy foil, saran wrap, etc.. The master suite was described as having a "Jacuzzi tub". It was neither Jacuzzi brand nor jetted. CLEANLINESS: weakest point. Sheets/comforters visibly soiled in downstairs bedroom - we had to wash. Similarly, we had to hand wash numerous few plates/utensils ourselves. Insides of bdrm drawers were dusty, so we spent some time dusting things so that we could put our clothes in the drawer and not have them get dirty. Wall-to-wall carpeting upstairs is "tired". Bathrooms not all stocked w/ TP but we found from other places. We should have asked for a break in cleaning fee. OTHER: providing charging, beach toys, basic bikes = nice. Correspondence w owners good at times, but not responded to at others (e.g. when alerted to cleanliness issues).
