"We loved this property! It was a perfect place to relax and enjoy some quite family time. Location was great - close to beaches, restaurants, freeway, and SB! The front porch was so relaxing and the house was decorated perfectly! We loved everything about it... only comment is there were a lot of spiders & bugs in the bedroom & bathroom but we are sure that is just beach living! We highly recommend this adorable little house to anyone visiting the area!"

We enjoyed the easy two-block walk down the hill to Summerland’s charming row of shops and businesses, and easy access to the gorgeous beach. Dolphins indeed greeted us on our last morning as we arrived at the beach! The outdoor spaces were lovely for reading and leisurely breakfasts. Friendly hosts gave great local recommendations."
