More than expected.
My oldest daughter was getting married and we had two of our other daughters and two grandchildren with us. The 4 bathrooms came in handy when getting ready. The house was equipped with more than expected with cooking and service utensils and serving platers and bowls. Lots of little extras such as popcorn, hot chocolate and tea. We enjoyed our stay had plenty of room and the house seemed as we were in our own home. Thank you Leo and Tia Blickley we had a spectacular 4 days.

Spacious and comfortable
Our family really appreciated having so much space for our stay. We needed a place for two weeks with our dog and our kids, and everyone enjoyed it. My husband was able to work from the office desk downstairs, the dog enjoyed the backyard and beach nearby, and the kids enjoyed the big living room and tv. The laundry was convenient, the kitchen was well stocked with tools, and most importantly there was a bottle of wine :) The one room facing the freeway was a little louder at night than the others, although the kids did not care and we used sound machines. We’d definitely go back.

Leaves much to desire
We stayed 4 days and 4 nights at this place, costing 3K. The place was reasonably clean but the carpets had stains and the walls too. The place definitely can use a fresh coat of paint. Fixtures, furniture, linens, towels and everything else is very dated and average at best. The kitchen was not well stocked - no ziplock bags or Saran Wrap or Aluminum foil. We had to get coffee, sugar. There were left over cookies and tea bags from who knows when in the kitchen cabinets. One set of place mats was old and warped. The trash bins in the bathroom were without liners. The front and back yards were nicely landscaped and pretty

handy location, reasonable comfort, but cleanliness issues
Reasonable place for 6-7 people close to Santa Barbara/Carpinteria LOCATION: on higher speed arterial behind a freeway not great for aesthetics, but it is easy to access for car/bike outings, while not great for walking. Freeway noise is tolerable. The rooms are convenient, including main floor bedroom w/ futon for avoiding stairs. VIBE/SETUP: functional & pleasant enough but not going for a "destination" feel. While mostly "as advertised" a few thing were not quite accurate/inadequate: utensils/flatware/dinnerware were spartan in places (few flatware items – needed to hand wash before using dishwasher), missing scraper/spent spatulas/etc, no garlic press, tho specialty items like mixer were there. We had to buy foil, saran wrap, etc.. The master suite was described as having a "Jacuzzi tub". It was neither Jacuzzi brand nor jetted. CLEANLINESS: weakest point. Sheets/comforters visibly soiled in downstairs bedroom - we had to wash. Similarly, we had to hand wash numerous few plates/utensils ourselves. Insides of bdrm drawers were dusty, so we spent some time dusting things so that we could put our clothes in the drawer and not have them get dirty. Wall-to-wall carpeting upstairs is "tired". Bathrooms not all stocked w/ TP but we found from other places. We should have asked for a break in cleaning fee. OTHER: providing charging, beach toys, basic bikes = nice. Correspondence w owners good at times, but not responded to at others (e.g. when alerted to cleanliness issues).

Nice large house
The house is large and comfortable. The ev charger is a nice bonus. Kitchen is well stocked. The only downside is that it is right on the freeway and we could hear the cars at night. Not too loud but noticeable. The location is between carp and Summerland so you can’t easily walk to anything. 5 min drive.

perfect stay
This house was perfect for our family of six. There were four bedrooms each with its own bathroom. The community space was plenty big for not only us but our two dogs. Although it was close to the freeway we did not hear the traffic. Getting on and off the freeway to head to Santa Barbara was very easy. We also went to a dog beach about two miles away that had a convenient dog bathing facility. If you are looking for something in or near SB this place works great.
