About this property
Delightful Dutch Farmhouse with Guest House
A newly restored Dutch farmhouse, located on 5 gorgeous acres in Santa Ynez. You will soon see that Goodgame Ranch is a property right out of the movies! Close to town, this home features lush park-like grounds with a pool, spa, and a beautiful rustic barn and corral. This comfortably charming home is excellent for entertaining, inside and out, with unlimited attention to detail and plenty of amenities. There are three private rooms upstairs, two rooms with king beds and one room with two twin beds. The master bedroom features a flat screen television and full bath with shower and tub. Downstairs, guests can sleep on a sleeper sofa bed with full bath en suite. This is not a private room but the perfect arrangement for extra guests.
***Pool is not heated, inquire with host about heating the pool***
***Prior to the recent Santa Barbara County ordinance restricting short term rentals (30 days or less), this home has always been rented as a 5 bedroom property, with sleeper sofa in common area, accommodating up to 12 adults. Current code only allows 6 adults ( in 3 bedrooms)—additional children are allowed, up to maximum of 10. We abide by this ordinance. Rentals of 30 days or more allow up to 10 adults. We want to accurately disclose that this home is larger than a 3 bedroom home, for those seeking 31 days or more rentals.
