I'm leaving La Petite very happy, relaxed, and full of energy. It's a very nice place, the house is very clean and comfortable. I hope to return very soon.
This cottage is adorable. So comfortable and clean. Has all you need. Quiet and well located near everything but feels a million miles away. Hosts were great and it was all that was promised.
Dana and Craig are gracious and charming hosts. The property is equally delightful. The lavender field and olive grove makes us feel as if we are back in Provence. We will be back again soon!
This is a petite cottage in the hills of Santa Ynez. Fun to stay and experience the calm of the countryside. There are nice amenities on the property, to include a wonderful porch to eat a morning meal. The place is outfitted with great bedding and a cozy feel. Great for a couple or family of four. I would recommend giving it a try.
My wife and I returned to Petite Maison and found the cottage and surroundings to be just as charming and delightful as before. The new brick path to the front door is a nice addition. Looking forward to our next stay.
I have to be careful in terms of how much Praise I offer as it could have the effect of making further bookings more complicated – but just have to say, this is an absolutely perfect location and home for a wine country getaway north of Santa Barbara. Dana was wonderful, easy to communicate with, the location is absolutely fantastic With proximity to everything nearby. Definitely will stay again.
Le petite Maison is absolutely charming. We loved the quaint touches throughout the cottage. The large connecting bathroom is spacious with plenty of room for toiletries. The location is amongst a grove of olive trees and french lavender which adds to the charm. We hope to return in the near future!
Found the cottage to be the perfect place to stay in the valley. Equal distant between Santa Ynez and Los Olivos and a short drive from Solvang. Beautiful quiet location and charming decor. my brother and I were very comfortable
We had the most amazing time in La Petite Maison. It was really what we needed. We took long walks along the country road and spent most of the time in and around the cottage. The cottage had everything we needed. The cottage was charming and we especially took full advantage of the fire place inside and having the heater outside allowed us to eat outside on the cool evenings. The welcome amenities were a nice touch. Lovely place to getaway in the Valley.
La Petit Maison is à charming, well appointed cottage very close to both Los Olivos & Santa Ynez. Comfortable and cozy, perfect for our short getaway and a great base camp for exploring the area. Would definitely stay here again and highly recommend.
A fabulous place - could not have been more perfect. Best vacation rental I have ever been at! Private, spotless, everything you need - felt more like being in someone’s beautiful home than a vacation rental - can’t wait to return!
The cottage was everything i hoped it would be. It was cozy and smelled amazing with lavender in bloom all around the property. It was incredibly peaceful as well.
Quaint French cottage surrounded by beautiful lavender plants, birds & bunnies and very quiet, which we loved! Home is beautifully decorated and feels very cozy. Enjoyed some wine on the front porch surrounded by so much beauty. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, we only wish we could have stayed longer!

Well appointed two bedroom with large shared bathroom.
Nice rural setting and close to town.
We really loved this gorgeous French inspired home, very cozy and surround by the most beautiful large Grosso lavender fields! Love the products for sale on property! And the location is great, very close to town, but set in the most peaceful rural back roads of SY!

It was a beautiful stay on a beautiful property! Only needed some dusting and had some items left over from a previous occupant. They left us a lovely note and bottle of wine though and had coffee and water bottles which was a super sweet touch! Would definitely stay again. :)
This is the perfect place to recharge for a 2-3 days or to stay longer. Superb property in a quiet location. We’re already making plans to return!
