Barn vacation rentals in Southern California

We absolutely loved our stay at this adorable barn apartment! The peaceful ranch setting, complete with beautiful horses, made for such a special and serene experience. The hosts were incredibly kind and thoughtful—communication was flawless from start to finish. We’re so grateful for the warmth, hospitality, and peaceful energy of this place. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a relaxing escape surrounded by nature and kind souls!

We had a lovely stay. The cabin was cozy and beautifully decorated. Less than a 15 minute walk to town. We will be back. Bonus having a washer and dryer.

We’ve stayed at this barn as a couple, with family, with friends, and now with our own family. It’s been a great stay and we look forward to coming back. Hosts provided many comforts like beer and wine, snacks, and toiletries all of which are much appreciated.

We loved this air BnB. The location was perfect and the rooms well equipped and very cosy.

This Airbnb was perfect for our trip! The house was spacious enough for three couples to fit comfortably; everyone found the beds cozy. There was no AC, but even during a heatwave the house maintained a pleasant temperature inside. The main negative was the strong mildew smell on the bath towels, as well as the bedlinens in one bedroom. Aside from this, we had a great stay and would recommend it to others – especially if you are attending a wedding at Greengate Ranch, just steps down the road.

One of the best trips hands down! Me and my family were beyond satisfied and we all felt very grateful for our stay! We literally couldn’t have asked for anything more perfect!

Our stay was lovely! The space is as described and looked just like the photos, and based on the some of the previous feedback, we knew what to expect. Yes, it could use some decor/furnishing updates and a good solid top-to-bottom deep clean, but the perfect location/proximity to amenities and reasonable price makes it worth it. We would stay here again!

We had a great stay. It was very close to Julian and yet very private and serene.

Tiare was an amazing hostess! She took time to communicate via text prior to our arrival to make sure we had clear instructions on locating the property and accessing the home. We loved her personal introduction to her special farm animals including rescue horses, goats, a pot bellied pig, chickens, a duck and a rabbit. Our kids loved the freedom of walking out of the house to go visit the animals. The location is also very convenient, just moments to the restaurants at Ojai Valley Inn, the downtown area, and the recreational trail. The house had several rooms for relaxing and recreation including a ping-pong table and reading area that had amazing views of the mountains. Thanks so much for having us--we look forward to visiting again!

This was the perfect fit for us. The farm life in the city. The barn is perfect and peaceful. Nicole is a pleasure to work with and her Aunt was a joy to spend time with. We were able to meet the whole family of horses, peacocks, sheep, dogs, cats, lamas, parrots and pigs. It was a wonderful stay.

Skip and Lara made us feel completely at home. The property itself is a gem—so peaceful, serene, and beautifully maintained. It truly felt like a hidden retreat where time slows down and you forget about stress of everyday life. What made our visit even more special was Lara’s warmth and kindness, especially toward our kids. She was so thoughtful and engaging with them, creating moments they’ll remember for a long time. It’s rare to find a host who not only provides a beautiful space but also goes out of their way to make the experience extra special for the little ones. Lara truly has a gift for making people feel welcome and cared for. The farm was calm and peaceful, with just the right balance of nature, comfort, and charm. Our family had such a meaningful and memorable time here—we didn’t want to leave! Thank you, Skip and Lara, for such an incredible experience. We can’t wait to come back

Cute little studio with lots of great wineries surrounding it. If you’re a walker possible to walk to several.

Great place to stay. Host is so nice, communication is excellent, very friendly and making sure all is at the right place. Place is clean, original to stay at and worth every penny of it. I would definitely come back!

Great location within walking distance of Dank Donuts and a nice trail down to the restaurants and stores on the boulevard. Check-in and out were super simple. The house itself was as pictured, and comfortable. The included pet bowls and bed were a nice touch. The master is downstairs, but the two upstairs bedrooms are up a steep flight of stairs, so probably not suitable for older guests with mobility issues. Cleanliness was ok. Relying on previous guests to wash the dishes and coffee maker meant we had to take care of what they missed. Also, I'd suggest switching to fitted sheets instead of a flat bottom sheet. Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The location was perfect and the house comfortable. Thank you Jeff and Anika.

Amazing stay, peaceful surroundings, clean and well stocked, highly recommend!

Everything about Asha's place was wonderful - from the beautiful grounds and outdoor spaces to the thoughtful decor of the interior. The location was great for a wine tasting tour, exploration of downtown Santa Barbara, hiking. Short drives to everything you need, including groceries, restaurants, and local sites. Well stocked with extra towels, bedding, kitchen necessities. I really appreciate not having to go out to buy TP on the first day of vacation! The wine and coffee to start us off was also a thoughtful bonus. We will definitely recommend to our friends visiting the SB area.

Mike is so kind, responsive, and caring. he cares about people which shows from the moment your reservation is approved until you check-out. My family and I were comfortable and felt very welcomed. The nature surrounding the area is so peaceful.

We rented Grace's place for a meeting of our non-profit. It was perfect for our large group. Lots of bedrooms and baths for everyone and the kitchen and sitting areas accommodated us nicely. We didn't really have time to take advantage of the barn activities, but I'm sure it would have been great. The kitchen is well stocked with plates, glasses and cutlery for a large crowd. Grace was very friendly and responsive. She went above and beyond trying to solve an issue that occurred through no fault of her own. Would definitely return.

Really enjoyed our stay at The Barn and would definitely like to visit again soon!

What an amazing find. I don’t think I can say enough about this beautiful place. First, the property and the scenery were breathtakingly beautiful and so much attention to detail was put into this property and home, making it by far the best place we have ever stayed. Then you add in the fantastic hosts - Natalie and Glen and you have utter perfection. Natalie went above and beyond to help make our stay amazing. She delivered eggs and pastries to us for breakfast and was so helpful to us during our stay. I cannot say enough how great our stay was. Highly recommended. Five stars is not high enough. We will come back many times in the future.

We enjoyed a very quiet and peaceful weekend at Anthony’s place. Anthony was very accommodating of our service dogs and provided a lot of excellent local recommendations for things to do and places to eat. Anthony’s place has some quirks, but nothing he didn’t prepare us for and nothing that took away from the quality of our stay. The “house within a house” concept was awesome. Coffee and games in the outer shell in the morning was great. We also loved hanging on the balcony and taking in the beautiful view. The area is very quiet and every neighbor we walked by with the dogs was friendly. Definitely recommend Anthony’s place to anyone looking for a zen-like stay, but with all the modern amenities that make our lives easier.

This house sits on an acre+ and the grounds are clean and beautiful. Check in and check out instructions were easy. The home is very large with plenty of rooms and beds for a large group of people. We cooked every night and the large kitchen made it easy. We appreciate the use of pots, pans, etc. A big plus is that the beach is a short drive! Thank you for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home. We felt very lucky to have found it on AirBNB and the price was more than reasonable! Definitely worth every penny!

Wow! Cynthia's barndominium was truly one of the loveliest, most thoughtful Airbnbs I've ever stayed at! It felt like home the second we walked in, and all throughout the night, we kept saying 'Wow, they even have *insert thing you didn't think they'd have but they totally had*'! Cynthia is truly the hostess with the mostest. From the kind welcome letter to the fully stocked kitchen (including an amazing coffee and tea bar, lots of cookware and spices, freshly picked fruit, mint, lavender, and dried citrus for cocktails, the list goes on!) to the yoga mats and blankets to the wide selection of boardgames (a seriously great collection...some were so nolstalgic...Mouse Trap and Sorry anyone?) to the plush dog bed that our golden retriever couldn't wait to curl up in every night! Everything was PERFECTION. We had the most wonderful time and can't wait to visit again!
