"Near the beautiful beaches north of Santa Barbara, families cram into this luxury campground to enjoy the semi-rustic life."
Oyster
Mid-Range
"With enough modern conveniences to satisfy travelers who would rather just semi-rough it. Guests stay in cabins, tents, or yurts; only cabins have en-suite bathrooms."

Rough Guide
"Three miles from the city centre, a comfortable inn that offers slightly better rates than most accommodation of the same type along the beach, with two pools, a sauna, hot tubs and a gym."
Gayot
"Like many of the hotels on Upper State Street, this one offers a generic taste of Santa Barbara."
U.S. News & World Report
