Immaculate Cottage with Hot Tub & Great Location!

SuzanneRating, 5 stars3 days ago
Dana was very accommodating host. She gave us clear instructions about how to access the house, gave awesome recommendations for places to visit and where to eat, which we used! The house is adorable and the beds are super comfortable. My bestie and I had a wonderful time and would definitely go back again! I highly recommend!

Dreamy Glass Cottage in Nature Paradise

PriscillaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We had a magical weekend retreat at Jennifer’s Glass House. It was so peaceful, the unique architecture was perfect for taking in the sights and sounds of nature—the view from inside the Glass House was jaw dropping. Jennifer was so sweet, welcoming, and helpful. The bed was supremely comfortable and the bedding had a luxe feel. There were thoughtful places to sit, swing, or lie down throughout the property. While the kitchen is more limited, we were able to cook everything we needed, making food outdoors was divine. The bathrooms were spotless, if a bit of a walk to take in the middle of the night (but no different from other glamping facilities). We were lucky to have the entire Grove area to ourselves so it was especially comfortable as we didn’t have to navigate around other occupants. Loved the pool and hot tub area, a really charming experience. Overall it’s the perfect place for a quiet retreat off-grid, to recharge in an ideal glamping situation. We can’t wait to be back.

We enjoyed our stay at this very cute and cozy cottage. It was a very peaceful location and close by a beautiful Walking trail. It had all of the amenities, and we especially enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub in the evening.

Great cottage! Had an awesome weekend on Bath Street. Place was very clean and the outside yard was very relaxing to hang out and nicely fenced for pets. Great location close enough to walk to the Bowl, State Street, Beach, etc.

Farmhouse cottage

BarclayRating, 5 stars6 days ago
We enjoyed staying at the Farmhouse. The 2 bedrooms are very comfortable with good closets. The bathroom is very well designed and modern. While the ceiling may seem low I am 6’2” and had no problem. The main room is spacious with dining table and a sitting area with TV. My favorite place was the patio and hot tub. Both have great views. Ricardo is very responsive and checked in to see if we needed anything. The kitchen has what you need. This is a special rustic cottage with updates and we enjoyed our stay up in the canyon.

Overall we had a great stay at this property. It is private and quiet, within walking distance of Summerland town strip and is just a short drive to state street. I encourage renting Gillian’s room to anyone looking for an affordable stay in summerland! The dog bed was a nice touch for our dog as well!

Camp Cottonwood

YoonieRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago
We loved staying at Camp Cottonwood — from the charming design to the lovely garden, to the very convenient proximity to town (specifically Bells) it was a great place to stay for the long weekend. Look forward to staying here again on a future visit to Los Alamos!

Montecito Beach Cottage. Walk to restaurants.

OliviaRating, 5 stars2 days ago
Darren was friendly, flexible with the check-in time, gave very clear instructions on arrival, minimal and reasonable house instructions. The home was even better than expected based upon the photos and description. Nothing short of a gem. We loved staying here and so did our two dogs!

Hummingbird Cozy Cottage, Garden, Treehouse, Views

NancyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Hummingbird Cottage is adorable. The bed was so comfortable and the sound of the fountain was soothing. The house is very small, so not suited to someone really tall. Our daughter stayed in the treehouse and loved it. The location was great for catching the boat to the Channel Islands.

Private Oasis, Summerland Waterscape Cottage

JudithRating, 5 starstoday
This cottage is, indeed, a little oasis. It is absolutely charming, well appointed, well designed, very comfortable, spotlessly clean, and the hosts are very responsive communicators. Summerland is a little funky, although the beach park is very nice (and the beach itself allows dogs off-leash "unofficially") and only about 2 blocks away, an easy walk; there's also a good coffee place within walking distance. There's quite a bit of freeway noise (as is true of most of Summerland), but the house setting is so lovely and the house so delightful that it's easy to ignore. Even with construction on 101 it's fast to get to Montecito and Santa Barbara, so a good option if you're visiting the Santa Barbara area.

Beautiful and Bright Pet Friendly Cottage

KathryneRating, 5 stars2 days ago
Great cottage that was perfect for us staying with our dogs and close to the Earl Warren Fairgrounds. Quick drive to lots of different locations. A fantastic interior and there was plenty of room for all three people and dogs! There is a driveway off the street that we were able to park our 3/4 ton pickup in fairly easily. There are dogs in the neighboring homes as well, for anyone who might have reactive pups. We came in June and absolutely loved the evening breeze with the open windows. Would definitely stay again!

Magnolia @ Alisal & Oak - Solvang, CA

AmberRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Was great for the wedding weekend we attended - the double sink was helpful for getting ready at the same time (2 blow dryers provided). We all slept amazing on their beds!! The outdoor seating area is excellent for people watching, the trolley dinging by, the roses - we had a glass of bubbles each afternoon out there. I would plan on little to no internet. Even the thrift store across the street struggled with internet so if you’re looking to do work, this place’s connection might be trying on your patience. The ATT signal was weak as well. Our host was proactive in trying to fix it. We were eventually able to watch some late night shows after wedding festivities. Might want to ask for a few more Keurig pods per guest; however, there’s amazing coffee shops within a block or two. Make sure the AC isn’t shifted to auto or heat in the evening as it shifts to 81 on its own at some point - I’ll let the host know and bet it’ll be fixed when you read this. Book it! Very nice spot.

A magical experience for Couples & Families.

ArianaRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago
Peter's house was perfect for traveling with young kids. Peter and his wife set up bedding for our young kids which was so helpful especially with our evening arrival. There were so many fun toys for the kids to play with. The kitchen was well stocked. We really enjoyed our stay. Peter and his wife thought of everything and are great hosts. Thank you for everything!

Cottonwood Cottage in Santa Ynez Valley

DeniseRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Such a beautiful space inside and out which allowed for a relaxing weekend getaway. We enjoyed the back patio as well as the front patio area and the bottle of wine was an unexpected surprise. Breanna was responsive to my questions. The home is even more beautiful than the photos. We look forward to visiting the area again.

Debra was such an amazing host!! She took my friends and I in during the fire evacuations in LA and was so helpful during our entire stay. She brought us fresh eggs from her friend's farm and gave us great recommendations for places to explore in the area. The cabin was so cute and cozy, we all felt so at home! Thank you Debra!!
