We stayed just over a week and it was enjoyable!
Property was just as described and had even more amenities and caring touches that we weren't expecting. It has everything you need, aside from your own food and beverage.
There was a designated parking spot just for us. It felt secure in a nice neighborhood, such that we felt safe to sleep with the windows open and listen to the crickets at night and the birds in the morning. Beautiful views and foliage. We accidentally crossed paths with the host, who was very friendly and otherwise let us keep to ourselves the whole time.
10/10 recommend this property. Just be mindful (for any who are challenged with mobility) that you'll be carrying your luggage up and down a series of steps. It's worth the exercise :)

My husband and I stayed for a few nights in July at The Sleepy Cat Inn, and we completely enjoyed our stay! It was just the perfect size for the two of us and very private. The bed and linens were premium quality. We were very comfortable! The kitchenette was well stocked with all we needed to prepare our meals. We used the barbecue and enjoyed our sunset meals at the table on the lower front deck of the house. Beautiful garden and landscaping! We loved the easy parking and close access to the coast, marina and downtown Ventura. Hope to return again soon! Thank you, Christy!

Must remind long range prospects on the 43 steps to cottage. It is cozy and comfortable for short stays. Parking is challenging. Location provides easy access to area. No beach essentials provided.

Would highly recommend staying in this casita. It is quite a treasure and the owner was very responsive to all correspondence. The beautiful patio offers ocean views and a great place to have breakfast. It was very peaceful and quiet, and we enjoyed sleeping with our windows open to take advantage of the cool ocean breeze. Would not hesitate to stay here again the next time we’re in Ventura.

Tucked away in the hills of Ventura in a quiet neighborhood, this tiny, charming cottage was a perfect fit. A comfy bed and all the amenities you need. Close to downtown and the beach. A stunning view from the patio. It’s a winner!

Gorgeous property in the hills above Ventura.
The cottage was Adorable, comfortable and beautifully maintaine. Yes, there are 42 stairs from the street parking, but not bad!
Overall, we were very pleased! Excellent choice for a vacation! We will be back!

The location of this cute bungalow is very close to downtown and is in a gorgeous neighborhood. The decor is very California/Mediterranean and is very pretty, thoughtful and comfortable. It felt like we had our own little house. Very private. It had everything we needed for a great stay.

The property was just awesome secluded but yet close to everything within minutes. Peaceful and quiet, waking up to the birds singing, was so relaxing. It was exactly what I needed to get away from my work and normal day to day. Although I had to do some work from there which was easy to get to the things I needed to get the work done and get on with the relaxing. Absolutely loved it!

A perfect one bedroom in Ventura. easy to find and just exactly as described. We were very comfortable.

Nice little cottage at the back of the owner’s property. As others have mentioned, the view while in the cottage is of the owner’s home. There is a lower deck with a lovely ocean view. Lots of stairs to get to the cottage, as is listed in the description. Nice, quiet, safe neighborhood in the hills of Ventura. I got a lot of great walking in! We didn’t have any contact with the owners, just messages pre- and post-trip. All communication was prompt and helpful. The amenities list a washer and dryer. These are not in the cottage. (Maybe the owners let you use theirs?) My one friendly suggestion would be to clear cupboard space in the bedroom for guest use. There are extra linens, which is nice, but there are also quite a few personal items from the owners that could be removed. We appreciated the easy check-in and check-out. All in all a nice stay. We’d return.

It’s a perfect place for two people to stay it is just enough. It’s close to downtown Ventura, the highway and the beach. My grandchild loves to visit the “Little House” and so do we. We plan to stay again in the future.

Very clean. Excellent attention to detail. My husband and I came for a wedding and this was the perfect place for us to stay to enjoy Ventura. It is located behind the owners home but feels very private. The view from the lower deck is beautiful when the sky is clear. We were there during a rainy spell, but we still got one day to enjoy the view. I loved the location. Felt very safe, the cottage was cozy and the bed comfortable. There are stairs as the description mentions but was not a problem for us. Thank you for a great stay!

This space was exactly what I was looking for... a private, quiet yet beautiful location to celebrate my birthday. The location is in a lovely neighborhood, the views are gorgeous and the cottage is small yet has everything we needed. Thank you so much Christy for having us.

This charming cottage is bright in charm and color. Very peaceful place with patio’s to relax while having our morning coffee. We had all the amenities we needed and our host was available if we needed anything or had a question.
Parking was a little tight, and many stairs, but we managed just fine. Don’t let the stairs scare you.

Really excellent small space on a beautiful well maintained property. Just what we needed. I did wish at one point there was a place for 2 people to cuddle up and watch some TV -but in such a beautiful area we found lots to do to entertain us.
