Love this house! Close enough to walk to the beach and to downtown Carpinteria. We didn’t use our car. Many good restaurants and shops. There is everything you need to have a day at the beach. Chairs, umbrellas, toys and even a wagon. Will be coming back to stay in this house again!

Yes, there is shopping nearby. Access to the beach about 2 blocks down from the house. Only downside, there is very narrow steep stairs in the house, to go to the upstairs bedroom.

Beautiful and Updated Beach Cottage

I grew up coming to Carpinteria beach as a kid and wanted to give my children a lasting memory - this cottage helped our family maximize the fun in Carp and had everything we needed - plenty of comfortable and kid-friendly beds, modern furnishings, extra supplies including a beach wagon and towels. Would 10/10 recommend!

Perfect Beach Cottage

The cottage was actually better in person. Beautifully appointed, comfortable beds and very clean. We used the grill for salmon and ate outside. Two block walk to a beautiful beach with very few people. Early morning and sunset Beach walks were the best. 30 minutes ish to Ojai and Santa Barbara. Owner was very helpful with the few questions we had. Highly recommend.

Let’s Do It Again

Great bungalow; completely renovated with high-end style & thoughtful finishes. Well located by main street & beach. Upper level was ideal for children and teens. Two ground level bedrooms were comfortable. Kitchen was great with adjacent outdoor deck w. gas grill. The owners were responsive and easy to work with. Thanks for H2Omarking us!

Best ever!

My wife and I have utilize a number of vacation sites and this is , by far, the best (not kidding!) we have stayed. The hosts get how to do this....easy and efficient , guest-centered communications and accommodations. Ton of little, and no-so-little, touches to the recently renovated cottage that made our stay special. This cottage was well thought out, the host was superb and the town we hope to return to, well....it is a jewel. You will not be disappointed when staying here. Worth every penny. Thank you Leah and whoever else was involved in this presentation! Brian and Ellen
