We had a wonderful stay at Pam and Mike’s charming casita! The space was spotless, beautifully decorated, and felt fresh and newly renovated. Perfectly sized and comfortable for two, it made for a relaxing getaway. The location was ideal—just minutes from Santa Ynez wineries, Cold Spring Tavern, and only a quick 15-minute drive up the hill from Santa Barbara. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend it!

Wonderful tiny home in the hills of Santa Barbara

My fiance and I spent a lovely weekend at this property for our anniversary. The check-in process was seamless, the host was very communicative and the spot was exactly as described in the listing. We loved our stay and would most definitely come back.

Absolutely loved it!

My daughter and I loved the tiny little house!! It was absolutely perfect! Cozy, clean, so cute, all the amenities we needed! And my favorite part was falling asleep to the sounds of crickets up in the hills. It was so calm and peaceful!! And the views on the way up were amazing!! Pam was a delight!! Very responsive and helpful with everything! Can’t wait to stay again soon!

Great little getaway

This tiny house was perfect for our weekend getaway. It was definitely a tiny house but had everything we needed for the weekend and very comfortable. Highly recommend if you're looking to stay somewhere far enough from the city to feel like you're on retreat, but close enough to enjoy a night out.

Great stay!

The Casita was the perfect spot in the mountains for a weekend away. It has everything 1 person or a couple could need to relax and recharge. The host was a great communicator to boot!

Secluded and amazing tiny home

This newly built and fully stocked tiny home in the mountains between Goleta and Santa Barbara, is perfect for a weekend getaway. It’s twenty minutes away from everything and still secluded when you want to unwind from daily sightseeing, kayaking, eating, and other activities. Pam was very communicative and wanted to make sure we were comfortable and enjoying our stay along the way. Their dog, Hank, was the sweetest boy ever! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!
