The house was wonderful, and the owners were warm, welcoming, and friendly. The backyard is beautiful, and was a perfect place to hang out and relax after a day of sightseeing. The location is great - approximately half way between the UCSB campus and downtown, and a short drive to Highway 101. The yard was great for our little dogs, and we could relax because the space was securely fenced. Of the four adults in our group, I'm the lightest sleeper (and should emphasize that I'm an EXTREMELY light, ultra-sensitive, sleeper). The other three adults had no trouble sleeping, but the road traffic was enough to wake me in the early hours (I was in one of the front bedrooms). But the others had no problem at all. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again -- I'd just request the back (master) bedroom. On this trip, we gave that room to my 90-year old dad, so he could have his own bathroom, and be able to find it easily in the middle of the night. We loved the lemon, orange, and avocado trees, and we even juiced some oranges using the home's juicer. This house was awesome.
