REVIEWS:
Our house is a 5 star home with over two dozen perfect reviews. When we recently changed property managers our prior reviews were lost, but here is what some guests have said about our home:
- “Perfect location! 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.”

Moms Getaway

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.

House worked out really well for our family

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

Family Fun

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!

Family home for a week.

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.

Great 50th birthday weekend!

Had a fabulous stay here for my 50th with my mom and aunts. It was within walking distance to great shopping, coffee shops and the Farmers Market. We also went on a cruise to the Channel Islands which was just a 40 minute drive to the harbor. Spent some time at the Santa Barbara pier on a Sunday and enjoyed the art walk. Great location, great hosts , plenty of room for 5 of us. Loved the extra touches like the bottle of wine and great soaps.
