The house is larger than the picture indicates” - “They have thought of everything—kitchen supplies, plush robes, etc. Could not have been happier” - “The house kept cool in the day time and the beds were all very nice” - “The house was absolutely perfect. We were able to sleep everyone comfortably and we made good use of the bbq and kitchen. - “Great location within easy walking distance to State Street.” - “The house is a beautiful Victorian and furnished nicely” - “Everything was VERY CLEAN” - “This was a great location. We especially liked the back patio and front porch swing. One thing to note is there are no bathrooms upstairs.” - “Would book again!” - “Gorgeous house. Really lovely and comfortably furnished. My friends and I wished we could have stayed longer.” - “We loved our stay here. It’s a quiet location close to downtown. Would stay again 10/10.” - “My Avon teammates and I stayed at the house. It was very comfortable and had enough space so we weren’t tripping over each other. The back yard was a great place to chill and chat over a glass of wine. I would definitely stay here again.” - “A great family house. Plenty of room for our family of 5 and my sister with her family of 4. …the upstairs space with beds and tv was great for the kids. My teens don’t like to share beds so the twin beds upstairs were perfect.”

The stay was great. The house was comfortable, clean, cozy, and perfect for our family. We enjoyed our stay. The location was PERFECT. Super convenient and 5-10 min drive to all of our destinations.
We had a great time visiting with family. The location was central to the downtown and not far from the beach. The house was clean and spacious for all of our guests. We had a wonderful vacation.
A very comfortable home with plenty of sleeping options! We found the house to be very clean upon arrival, with plenty of towels and linens, and well stocked kitchen. I would definitely stay here again if I come back to Santa Barbara
We had a fantastic trip to SB for our annual girls trip! We walked and rode bikes everywhere and didn't need our cars! The home is older and we loved the charm. Thanks for a great stay!
We stayed at this house for our annual Mom’s getaway and enjoyed it very much. Great location, we were able to walk to State Street for dinner every night. Very clean, we felt safe, and very comfortable beds. No bathroom upstairs which might be difficult with kids/families but was fine for our group. Thanks for a great stay.
We were very pleased with our stay in this adorable house! The 10 adults in our party were very comfortable staying in this house. The upstairs had plenty of mirrors and was a great space to get ready in. The house had plenty of towels and supplies. Definitely would stay here again!
House was very quaint and well stocked. Worked great for our families needs and it had many beds and ample linens and towels. We were initially concerned about the units in the back but we didn't hear them at all and had a really nice quiet family weekend. Great location as it is a nice quiet block but short walk to State St. Property manager was always responsive and very accommodating, we would stay there again, 5 stars
Walkability!!! This property is walkable with a 4 year old to parks and restaurants and there's even a bus stop near by. We were quite impressed with the historic nature of this house and how well it has been preserved yet at the same time, really appreciated that it has been updated with modern conveniences. The multiple rooms really worked for our range of ages, places for naps and work. The patio space was easily large enough for us to have a gathering of 12 for dinner. I hope to have my family return for more family fun!
This old home had plenty of charm and space for our family of 4 adults and two small children. The 2 updated bathrooms are beautiful. The kitchen, although retaining original cupboards and drawers, functioned well and had everythingvwe needed. We appreciated the plastic childrens' plates, cups, and bowls. Our kids ate only at the kitchen table make clean up easy. The location in a quiet neighborhood was ideal for us. We walked to restaurants on State St. and to the park with the outstanding childrens' zone and duck pond.
We were very comfortable staying at this house and would recommend to others.
We were in town for my daughters wedding and had family staying with us for the week. Beautiful home, neighborhood and perfect for large groups such as ours. Would stay again and again!
We really enjoyed staying here. Plenty of very comfortable beds for everyone. Large kitchen and living room. Nice upgraded bathroom. We were able to walk everywhere in town. Overall great property.
