REMODELED COTTAGE -BEST BACKYARD AREA IN PIERPONT!

(City of Ventura Permit#2157)
NO EVENTS NO PARTIES ALLOWED.

The Starfish Cottage is the perfect place to relax for your next getaway. Located in the Pierpont neighborhood of Ventura which is just west of the 101 freeway between San Buenaventura State Park and The Marina. This ideal location offers the best of Ventura.

Bike trails will take you along ocean paths to Santa Barbara or east to Ojai. Restaurants are within walking distance from The Starfish. The Marina has the best bikini store along with well established eateries.

Head across the freeway to old downtown Ventura for a great shopping or dining experience. Check out the resell shops, wine bars, and just all the wonderful locally owned businesses.

The cottage kitchen has everything you need for cooking. Our large outdoor patio is comfortable and roomy. Our home is situated on the north side - or sunny side of the lanes- so you will get nice morning breezes and afternoon sun.

Step outside the front door for a less then a 2 minute walk to the beach. All Pierpont lanes end at the State Beach.

You will love our new extra comfy king bed in the master bedroom - we splurged on the mattress and bedding. The second bedroom has a queen bed and the den has a new queen sofa sleeper. All linens are 600 count cotton sheets, pillows are the Allergen brand and we only use cotton covered down like comforters on all beds. We also provide plenty of throw blankets and extra blankets for your comfort.

An outdoor hot/cold shower is available to wash sand off yourself and your suits before going inside. A small amount of sand can clog the pipes and drains.

The kitchen is completely stocked with dishes (indoor and out) for your needs. We have a toaster, crock pot, Vitamix, Mocca Master Coffee Pot, spices, condiments and anything in the fridge is free to use.

All beach items are stored in The Tuff Shed behind the east front gate. Bikes can be stored behind the locked gate. The Shed is full of beach towels, chairs, umbrellas and other beach items that you will not have to pack.

Please contact us anytime with any questions. We love to talk Ventura!

This house is wonderful! It's small but the open concept makes is feel bigger. It is well appointed and very comfy. We (and our dog) loved the backyard, it feels private and the landscaping is beautiful. Very close to the beach. Bunnie was great to work with. This is the 3rd house we've rented at this beach and it is definitely our favorite, we will be back!

Ventura beach cottage

I took my three kids for their summer vacation to Ventura, rented a fun car, and thought it would be relatively quiet time. Instead it was daily walks down the block to the beach, outings for food, making delicious dinners at home on the outdoor bbq and generally being super happy. The location and house itself definitely made the trip. Thank you again Bunnie. Would highly recommend this stay to anyone.
