Beautiful Home

Excellent property. Only downside is it is an older house and a door got stuck open on the first day that could not be fixed. This apparently has been an issue in the past. They remedied the situation with a privacy curtain. Communication was great.

Terrific spot!

Lovely home in West Beach area within easy walking distance of fun spots in Santa Barbara: beach, wharf, waterfront, restaurants, Funk Zone, etc. Place is very well equipped and maintained with lovely patio and deck. We made good use of both. Definitely recommend staying here.

Review

Location and home were great. We had an issue that the place wasn’t clean when we arrived. After some back and forth with the management company, cleaning people arrived and worked quickly. There was some sort of mixup between the company and the owners. We were only mildly inconvenienced but we are lucky we arrived right at checkin time and not later so we could get it resolved by the early evening.

Juniper Cottage stay

We loved our long weekend stay at Juniper Cottage. The place itself is very well maintained and has everything and more for an extended visit. And, it’s so quiet! Although it is merely steps to the beach, the neighborhood is residential and family friendly. We will definitely be back!

Santa Barbra Gem

The home's location is fantastic! It's near the beach, pier, restaurants and shopping mall. We didn't have to drive too far for other family activities in the area. The neighborhood where the house is located is noticeably quiet and calm. We were so relaxed and enjoyed our weekend vacation! The house is fantastic, the management very attentive and helpful. We will definitely stay at this home when traveling to Santa Barbra on our next vacation.

Great property in amazing location

House was perfect and well-equipped with everything we needed. Check-in was easy. The location was ideal. Really close to the beach, and a short walk to State Street. The outdoor space was great for our 1-year-old. Amazing experience all around!

Family Spring Break in Santa Barbara

Our multi-generation family loved staying in this house in the West Beach area. It was so close to the beach, marina, wharf and State Street. We loved walking to Jeannine's for breakfast and Brophy Brothers for dinner. The house provided comfortable beds and indoor living space along with front yard and back yard outdoor living space. Both the indoor and outdoor tables provided us with enough room for our family to dine and play games. It was too cool for us to spend very much time on the beach but the beach gear was at the house if we would have needed it. We had a great time staying at this home.

Great place for a trip to Santa Barbara

The house was just as advertised. It was comfortable for two couples. It was well stocked so we didn’t have to buy every little thing. The location could not better! Two blocks to the beach and a few more to the heart of the Funk Zone. If you like walking, you can walk up to the courthouse easily.

Great Gathering House

Four long time friends, who live coast to coast, spent three nights at Juniper Cottage and couldn’t have been happier with the house and all it offered… great spaces to gather, wonderful kitchen, and perfect location to enjoy a quick get-together in Santa Barbara. Great communication with the management company before and during our stay - easy checkin/checkout with clear directions via email and materials at the house. Highly recommend!

Great location, comfortable house!

We spent the Christmas holidays here with our family, 2 adult children. The house is lovely and really well situated near the beach and State St. The beds and bedding were super-comfortable. The property managers were very responsive to several questions we had. We'd never been to Santa Barbara before but are coming back!

Excellent stay

We were in Santa Barbara for a wedding and a group of three couples opted to book this place rather than paying for the ridiculously expensive wedding block in the hotel. It could not have been a better choice. The house was clean, charming, and walking distance to all wedding events! We loved the outdoor space and the convenience. It is perfect for a group of friends and would also be a great house to bring my children sometime. We would definitely stay here again.
