Sweet One downtown Ojai

ChloeRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
This spot is GREAT. It feels private, but it is still walking distance to everything fun in Ojai. It can be a bit tricky to find at first, but Tonya provides great instructions so I recommend reading those! Definitely would come visit again

Your Own Private Refuge on 10 Acres in Santa Ynez

SaraRating, 5 stars4 days ago
Jeanne’s cottage was an excellent place for our little group of 3 and 2 dogs, a quick drive to SY and perfectly located for road biking. There is so much wonderful space to wander on the grounds and perfect lawn for dogs to romp around. The cottage is thoughtfully furnished and the kitchen is well stocked. Jeanne and her husband were so nice and made us feel right at home. Without question one of the most dog friendly Airbnb I’ve ever stayed!

Oak & Avo RV-Carpinteria Foothills Mountain View

ClaireRating, 5 stars1 month ago
This was our second time staying at the Oaks and Avo RV. If you enjoy the outdoors, nature, and a super relaxed place to recharge, this is hard to beat. It's about a 5-minute drive to downtown Carp, but the RV itself is in a quiet, secluded neighborhood, tucked into the foothills. We were traveling with our dog and this retro RV and the lovely private yard around it was just what we needed.

Sugar-shack

THE VENTURA COTTAGE - Charming Studio in Midtown

ElaineRating, 5 stars5 days ago
This was one of the best Airbnb places I've ever stayed! Easy and clear communication about checking in, a great neighborhood, thoughtful and beautiful touches like fresh flowers, snacks, drinks in the fridge, and a bottle of welcome wine. All the furniture, towels, bed and kitchen amenities were top notch, as if I was staying at a friend's place, not a temporary vacation rental. Beautiful space and yard, very private and quiet area, abundant street parking, and only a 5 minute drive downtown. Amy's will be my 1st choice from now on anytime I'm planning a trip to Ventura!

California Guest House in the Privacy of the Oaks

KristenRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Elizabeth’s place was in a great location, which felt secluded while being only a few minutes from downtown Solvang. It was quiet and peaceful, with the exception of goats at the property across the way, which made quite a bit of noise at night. If you’re a light sleeper, I’d recommend packing ear plugs and sleeping with the windows closed.

This is our destination in Thousand Oaks! Our 4th time here (I think..:) Don’t hesitate to book. I left feeling refreshed, recharged.. and not wanting to leave actually. The gardens, the pool, the shower, the massage chair, Dan, and Millie and Ashley make this place hands-down my favorite Airbnb. My son agrees! We love it here and we know you will too!
