Everything was exactly as listed, we enjoyed our month long stay! The house is within walking distance of State Street (10-15-min) and the hosts were wonderful.

We enjoyed our stay. As 3 people in our 20s, we found this to be a central location and very easy to get to downtown. The hot tub was a great amenity and Peggy was great coming to clean it and the yard weekly while being mindful of our time & privacy. 10/10 would recommend

What a terrific opportunity to be able to stay in such a lovely historic property. We walked the safe and pretty neighborhood a couple of times a day and enjoyed the lovely gardens in the area. The location is very central and an easy 10-15 walk to State Street to many restaurants and only a few blocks from the Santa Barbara Bowl if you'd like to take in the outdoor concerts. The backyard garden is extremely private with a lovely hot tub and outdoor furniture to either relax or enjoy a meal. In addition, we appreciated the backyard being completely fenced for our pooch. Even though your neighbours are close by, it's a very quiet area and street. We couldn't have asked for more thoughtful, kind and responsive owners as Peggy and Eric. They were always ready to assist on how things operated etc., and provided a detailed communication on the properties' operations. Much appreciated. The home is so welcoming and cozy and everything was is great working order. Lots of towels and linens and kitchen essentials. We hope to return if available.

Location was good - property perfect for our needs - a very caring owner

Nestled in the hustle bustle of downtown Santa Barbara - and therefore convenient to everything- Eric and Peggy's 1917 bungalow with its cozy and fun vintage decor and charming garden is a surprisingly quiet haven to return to after a day or evening out. My husband and son loved the hot tub! Peggy is extremely responsive and has thought of everything from salad spinner to fans to beach tar remover. Street parking is usually available but the reserved space in the apartment lot in the back makes the ease of staying here seamless. I look forward to staying there again!

We had a wonderful stay at the Painted Pony. My husband and I and one-year-old daughter found the space just right for our needs. It is equipped with all the essentials of a long-term rental. The furnishings and decor of the home very much suit the house and neighborhood, and the backyard is a peaceful oasis, complete with a hot tub. The location was great, in a fun, walkable area, yet on a quiet street without any traffic noise. Peggy was lovely and an incredible and attentive host. She communicated consistently, and always gave us a heads up if something needed to be cared for at the property. I would easily stay here again. As it was we were sad to leave!

Peggy and Eric's sweet cottage on a quiet street in downtown Santa Barbara is perfect, just right for me and my small dog. The owners couldn't be more accommodating and kind.

The house was very cute and homey. Well laid out and decorated with everything we needed to cook, relax (hot tub and quiet yard out back), and best of all close proximity (< 1 mile) to state street and other attractions. Peggy was also very responsive and wanted to make sure we had a great time - a terrific host. We would stay here again
