Susan is a wonderful hostess. The house is on the southern end of Summerland. Great coffee shop and housewares. The Beach is amazing!! Dogs are allowed on beach. Great parking. The house was very clean and well kept. Susan addressed my only concern.

We were in town to celebrate our Mom’s 70th and we couldn’t have picked a better place. Susan is very prompt and thoughtful in her communication and the home is located a short drive from Santa Barbara. It was the perfect blend and quiet and stunning while still having access to all the fun downtown. We can’t wait to come back!

It was wonderful -- exactly as advertised!

Close to freeway and great Location. Made fiesta in Santa Barbara amazing. Susan was great.

Easy access, beautifully situated.

We had the most fantastic stay! The home is minutes from the freeway, and very easy to locate. We loved that the home is not on a traditional street/neighborhood- it’s private with plenty of parking and quietly surrounded by beautiful fruit trees and seasonal vegetation. The house is perfectly distributed in space offering various spots to sit and enjoy each other’s company, the outside beautiful long balcony that oversees the ocean, and best of all- it’s nooks for your quiet moments. Overall, it was all that we wanted for our family and more. We look forward to many more stays. Thank you, Susan for sharing your beautiful home!

We had a lovely time at Susan's home. The property has plenty of space, is very clean and the 40+ foot covered porch is the highlight where we enjoyed breakfast, did yoga and watched stars at night. Susan also gave us useful restaurant recommendations. The property is very conveniently located to take advantage of the activities in the area. We would gladly stay again.

Beautiful views of ocean and lush landscaping from the balcony. House was fully equipped with everything you might need for a comfortable stay, and the owner was very communicative and responsive. Our family loved having meals outside and admiring the gardens.

Amazing home, gorgeous property, gracious and welcoming hostess - this experience exceeded all of our expectations! We have rented through various agencies in several states over the years, but this visit rises to the top of the list.... Everything was very lovingly maintained, the home well-stocked with everything from spices and cookware to extra towels and bedding. There was plenty of room for all of us (three grandparents, our daughter and the two of us) to spread out and have privacy or to gather in one location... usually, the deck to enjoy the views. We couldn't have asked for a better visit, and Susan was a wonderful host. We highly recommend enjoying this home and would love to return!

This rental was very enjoyable. First, Susan was a fantastic host and is very responsive. We knew if we needed anything she’d be ready. Second, the home is classic and feels like a home. It is very well appointed and has everything you need. The deck is fantastic and looks over avocado trees straight to the ocean. We truly enjoyed our stay in a great location and will be returning whenever we can.

We celebrated my husband's 60th by coming to Santa Barbara and stayed at Susan's property. It was an outstanding experience. The house is in a good location, quiet and serene. There is a view of the ocean in the distance but the over all ambience is very nice. She was very helpful when we texted her about something, she lives in the bottom level, so it was easy to get hold of her. Our whole family had a good experience and made more memories together. Thank you

The house is conveniently located for Montecito, Ojai and Santa Barbara. It had everything one could possibly need. Fantastic balcony with multiple seating areas and a gorgeous view of the ocean. Great running and walking trails right out the door!

Great house and location - easy to get to everywhere we wanted to go - Santa Barbara, Goleta, Carpinteria, Montecito. Susan was super easy to communicate with and all instructions were clear. Perfect for our family!

Location was amazing with beautiful views! Host Susan was very accommodating and always checking in to see if we needed anything. Our stay here made our trip perfect.

This was perfect for my family of four plus mother-in-law. The master bedrooms are generous in size; the third bedroom had a trundle bed suitable for our two kids under age 10. It has a view of the ocean just above the treeline, beautiful plantings, and the bucolic sound of bullfrogs at night. 10 min. drive to downtown SB. The host is impeccably conscientious in her responses to all queries and was a pleasure to work with on this successful vacation.

This was a wonderful spot for our cozy, homey Christmas with my elderly mom. Our host thoughtfully provided many welcoming touches, including Christmas decorations, warm winter sheets, and firewood. Nice views of the ocean and easy access for a beach walk. While we were there in a rainy winter patch, I could see that everything you’d want for enjoying the yard or an afternoon on the beach was made available.

We had a lovely time. We really enjoyed the wonderful ocean view balcony and the fire pit. The house was comfortable, I enjoyed the quiet, and waking up to the sunrise over the ocean. Thanks Susan for going out of your way to make sure we had everything we needed.

We were in town for a wedding. We really enjoyed having our morning coffee on the balcony. Susan went to extra lengths to baby proof the balcony for my two-year-old!

Truly an amazing view. Floor to ceiling windows, the house is incredible. Very clean and comfortable. My mom is 86 and she could easily get in and out. I want to move the balcony to my house. Coffee in the morning, watching the birds was my favorite but the sunset was everyone else's.

Perfect spot for our itinerary, which included a daytrip to Solvang for a car show, Cold Spring Tavern for lunch, and visits to Summerland and the Santa Barbara Marina. Our 1st impression included fresh muffins left for the morning. Thank you Susan, very thoughtful. The highlight of the property, along with location, is definitely the "veranda", where we spent most of our time when not galavanting around the area. It is a balcony that spans the length of the house with lots of spaces to relax, lovely nature sounds and views, peeks of the ocean in the distance and a refreshing ocean breeze... perfect! The kitchen is large and had all we needed to prepare meals, which we did 3 of the 4 nights. Convenient! Suggestions: Main Bathroom- instructions for how to activate the shower would have been helpful as we're not tub people and had never seen that type of fixture before. Luckily our friends were familiar with it, however, once we got the shower working l, the water was just one painful stream. Beds- personally speaking, the mattresses were firm to an uncomfortable extreme for us and our friends. Foam toppers would help, but could be easily removed by guests who appreciate a hard bed. Family Rm- Seating space was tight for 4 adults when ready to settle down for a game or movie. We ended up moving a dining room chair in to allow us to spread out a bit. The living room is more spacious, but no TV. All in all, we really enjoyed our 4 days away with friends in this intimate garden setting and, with those few minor adjustments, we would definitely stay again. Thanks again Susan!
