Area Wildlife

Our location is home to a good deal of wildlife. During the day, it’s not uncommon to see pairs of hawks and falcons flying overhead, woodpeckers in the trees, vultures riding thermals and numerous kinds of song birds. Occasionally, small groups of mule deer, a coyote, bear, raccoon, possum or skunk might wander by. At night, if you’re lucky a great horned or screech owl will float noiselessly above you as crickets and frogs sign you a serenade. At the beach, almost daily, you can spot schools of dolphins playing in the waves while brown pelicans and sand pipers hunt for food. Don’t forget the iconic seagulls who would love to share your lunch. The Carpinteria State Beach is home to tide pools best viewed when the tides are low. They are home to starfish, small crabs, anemones, mussels and the occasional baby octopus. This is only a sampling of the cool animals you’ll see if you’re lucky.
Carpinteria
The small quaint town of Carpinteria offers a sanctuary from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Sporting a Mediterranean climate, we play host to good weather year round. Amongst its attributes you’ll find many fine restaurants in all price ranges, three locally owned breweries, an apiary, two candy stores, coffee shops, miles of uncrowded shore line, a farmers market, local museums, antique and souvenir shopping and sightseeing. A short drive away you can visit the cities of Ventura, Montecito and Santa Barbara to soak up some color, see a movie star or two and enjoy all they have to offer.

Great Place to Stay
All of us enjoyed to stay very much and had so much fun in the game room. Even going to beach was easy with beach chairs provided. Quiet neighborhood and very clean and good location to Santa Barbara in 10 - 15 minutes. If you plan to check out the Channel Islands National park departing in Ventura, only 30 minutes away from the house. Beds are all comfortable. In addition, the host responses very quickly. In 7 minutes from the house near Summerland Fuel depot in Carpinteria, there is a street with several restaurants and some shops to check out. We didn’t know until last day to get a gas! 😂

Family get-away
Sea Breeze cottage was the perfect place for my family to enjoy a wonderful, long weekend. There was so many fun things to do together at the house ...and my 2 year old great nephew had plenty of toys for playtime, too! The property is lovely, clean, neat and well-appointed - and quite close to the many activities that Santa Barbara has to offer. Thank you Donna and Kevin - you are wonderful hosts.

Great for family and friends
My family really enjoyed our stay with Donna and Kevin. They were incredibly hospitable and made us feel welcome. Although, we did not see them during our stay, there was great communication via VRBO. The house itself was clean, with thoughtful amenities, and in a quiet neighborhood. We also enjoyed the games, and think that we may have improved our pool and basketball skills.

Family Holiday
Our family spent the Thanksgiving holiday at the Sea Breeze Cottage. It was a wonderful stay! The location was perfect for day trips in the SB area. The game room was awesome…what a fun place to bond after spending the day exploring. The kitchen is complete with everything a cook would need to make home-cooked meals if desired. We prepared all our dinners at the cottage - Thanksgiving included. The location is quiet and very safe. Thank you Donna & Kevin for the lovely memories!

Landscaping!
We all left wishing that we had a few more days at the property! Despite being between neighboring properties, you definitely get a feeling of isolation. And meticulous planning (windows and fixtures) gives you privacy. Fencing provides plenty of buffer between the cottage and Donna/Kevin's place. We spent most of our socializing hours in the luxurious outdoor seating near the grilling area and just outside the kitchen. That area is dominated by gorgeous potted palms and a variety of flowering plants. The entire (upscale) neighborhood is covered with gorgeous palms of various species. Inside? The home was spotless on arrival. The two baths worked fine for our party of five, and the beds were comfortable with elegant bedding. I forgot to take the charger for my cell phone, but I didn't need to borrow one from a friend..... Donna and Kevin had a variety available in the home. Others have commented that they thought of virtually everything, and that's true. And local hikes are plentiful. We went bird watching on the Carpinteria bluffs. Don't pass on a chance to stay here!

We came from Chicagoland with my 2 daughters ( 6 and 3) and my husband’s parents. We were all beyond impressed with the property! All the minor attention to details did not go unnoticed. All basic amenities and beyond were provided. The game room was so much fun for family hang outs.
