Lived here for 2 years and really enjoyed it. Apartments are small and outdated, as is VERY typical for the area, prices can be high. There's no AC nor central heating. Management, maintenance, and landscaping staff are superb. They always go out of their way to make everything perfect, and they're fast! It's very conveniently located to Patterson Ave, Hollister Ave, and 101 freeway. The clubhouse is very large, very nice, and ALWAYS immaculate. The BBQ area is clean and well kept. Jacuzzi and pool are quite relaxing with a good view of the Santa Ynez mountain range to the east. This is not a typical apartment complex as the layout meanders through the area (IOW it's not a high rise). These are family/community oriented apartments who focus on making your time there worth it. Neighborhood is quiet, little/no crime, and neighbors are nice.

My Husband and I lived at Patterson for a year after we got married. Management and staff are great and have been more than helpful. When ever there was a problem in our unit they would take care of it. It is such a beautiful place to live and we would have wished to stay and renew our lease but the rent has gone up drastically and personally for the buildings being as old as they are it shouldn't be so much. I remember seeing a listing two years ago for a one bedroom of 1750 and now they are up to almost 2000 for a one bedroom sadly. But its unfortunate because that's Santa Barbara for you. Although, We had a wondering experience here. beautiful place with alot of nature surrounding and very peaceful environment. The amenities are great and everything you could ask for. A big thank you to Kirsten, Lizabeth and Noami.

We just moved into Patterson Place Apartments a little over a month ago, and I'm ABSOLUTELY loving it! Renting in the Santa Barbara area is difficult. Everything is pricey, and it's hard to find something both affordable and well maintained. Patterson Place strikes a wonderful balance. Still on the affordable end of the scale, while offering great quality. Here are highlights: I've had to put in three maintenance requests since moving in, mostly small issues. Management responds very quickly and has had my issues resolved before the end of the day. The pool is very well kept: heated and in great condition. The spa is too. Rec Room VERY CLEAN (Rec rooms can get smelly quickly!). Equipment is in GREAT condition. Two TV sets. There is a clubhouse available for free (cleaning deposit is needed, and you get it all back when you leave it clean). I haven't taken advantage of this yet, nor the billiards room attached to it, but it looks great. I look forward to using it soon. There are several laundry rooms. All are very clean with machines in good condition. They use a card system. NO MORE HOARDING QUARTERS! They put out a monthly newsletter, which is informative, and makes me feel like I belong to a community. I have wandered into the office a few times since moving in. Kirsten and Kaye are very friendly and professional. Kirsten is particularly sweet and likeable. She always stops what she's doing to give me her full attention. Whenever I go swimming, which is fairly often, I remember this past summer when my son and I went on vacation to Laguna Beach. I keep thinking, "Wow, it's just like I'm on vacation, except I'm home!"

A nice apartment complex but the units are a little old. Parking used to be a major issue but it's better. Still not great but better. Staff are friendly and a decent amount of amenities.

I recently lived at Patterson Place Apartments for 6 months. The housing was provided by my travel nursing company. They set quite a few of travel nurses there as it is a very nice apartment complex that is clean, well maintained, safe, close to the hospital and well managed by the awesome management office staff of Kay and Liz! From the moment I moved in last August until I moved out when my travel assignment ended January 30th, I had a very positive experience as a tenant. They welcome you with a gift bag...so nice! Always available to answer your questions. I had no maintenance issues with my apartment while I was there in apartment 205 (upstairs). The grounds are kept so nice with the landscapers. There are two that keep the lawn and flowers and trees so nice for the tenants. There are plenty of different flowers, plants and trees to enjoy on the grounds. There are also monthly events you are invited to in the clubhouse. With my work schedule (nights), I wasn't able to attend any of these events, but it is still a nice touch to get the residents involved. Each tenant is given an assigned parking spot with plenty of visitor parking spots for guests. The laundry area was always clean and well kept. The noise level was acceptable. I thought of staying when my assignment ended, but decided to move to a place closer to the beach that was partially furnished as I had no furniture of my own as the travel company had provided that. Can't say enough great things about this apartment complex. Close to the post office (down the street), Sansum clinic (across the street) 101 Freeway access (1/2 block away) and close to shopping. I give this apartment complex 5 Stars!

After living in an on-campus apartment for my first year of graduate school, my first instinct was to move immediately. I saw amazing reviews for Patterson Place Apartments, which made me want to secure a spot for a one bedroom apartment. Luckily, after working with Liz and Kaye, I was able to live here without any hassles! Despite the fact that it may be expensive to some, it was worth the amenities, safety, and *guaranteed* parking spot. The layout itself was also very nice for me. The bedroom had a patio area right outside of it, the shower and toilet were behind the door, while the sink and mirror were outside of this area, giving me more space to put my stuff all around the sink. There's ample closet space, as I was blessed with 2 sliding door closets, and the living room was more space than I could have asked for. The kitchen had gas stoves, which I honestly miss. I now live in an apartment where it's only electric, and let me tell you, gas stoves heat up MUCH quicker. Every time maintenance was needed, maintenance came, and Liz and Kaye were so responsive every time I had a question come up. The maintenance people are also very kind and energetic, giving Patterson Place a great name for themselves. In addition, the pool, gym, and rec room were all really great places to bring friends. I had such a great time lounging poolside, and even playing pool in the rec room! Everything about this place was too good to be true. I honestly miss Patterson Place a lot. If I was still in SB, I would have definitely stayed. I was really fortunate to have met managers like Kaye and Liz, and would recommend Patterson Place in a heartbeat.

The maintenance staff is great! Everyone is friendly and helpful!I I think that the rent prices are actually pretty good for SB. The only problem I can think of is that it can be kind of noisy if you have a unit by the highway.

just went by to visit a friend and thee grounds are very nice. apartments are a bit small and dated for the price and they have construction going on in the game room, gym, pool house, etc. which really sucks for people who are paying rent and can't use the facilities that they are paying for. But the pool is always looking good and things seem to be very safe and quite. If I didnt own my own house I would consider this place for sure.

Updating my review from 4-5 stars based on how I was treated upon leaving. Absolutely amazing! 2 years spent here were worth it. Relocating due to work or I would happily stay longer. Can't speak highly enough about how safe and quiet the community is. Can't beat the central location. Highly recommend.

I've been living in PPA for 7 months now and will try to approach this review with an objective eye rather than just writing from personal experience. Centrally located just 1/4 block from 101 and 1 block away from Hollister Ave, and just minutes from State St and downtown, these 1 & 2 bdrm. apts. offer a quiet, safe, clean, place to live. Not situated like a traditional apt. building, these units meander through the well kept grounds in a relaxing way. The management is friendly, very professional, and attentive. The maintenance crew are very hard working and quite accommodating. The club house is great and offers HD TV, a large kitchen and entertainment area, and billiard room. The pool and Jacuzzi are always kept clean. Pros: Units are well insulated, clean, and quiet, with little or no crime, centrally located, mgmt. staff is attentive, professional, and go out of their way to help out. Basic utilities are covered (water, sewer, & trash). The mgmt. holds parties & cookouts on a regular basis for the tenants, and the two gas BBQ's are generally kept clean and in good working order. The gym is small but usually very clean and includes aerobic equipment, free weights, weight machines, and a TV. Tenants have special discounts on a variety of shopping items and services that are exclusive to the Towbes group. Pets can be allowed. Laundry rooms are kept clean and neat and relatively inexpensive. Rental rates are competitive for the area. Cons: Depending on where one lives within the complex, some apts. have little or no sunlight, have mild amount of road, airport, and train noise. The units are small with a very tight kitchen and do not come standard with a microwave oven. There is no A/C, ceiling fans and granite-like countertops are considered an upgrade for a higher rent. Parking is at a premium 1 space per tenant. Guest parking is provided but many tenants permanently park in the guest spaces and never move nor use their cars (this however is typical in many apartment complexes). These apartments may be too small for a family and there is no playground or area set aside for children.

Housing in Santa Barbara is hard to find. We are so glad we found Patterson Place. The management team is super friendly and super helpful. We always receive prompt responses to any requests we have. The gardeners are so sweet and work hard to keep the grounds beautiful. They even helped me choose their best flowers to take pictures of for a photo assignment. Patterson Place is a fantastic place to live!
