  My sister and I thoroughly enjoyed this comfortable and clean home with scenic views of the beautiful oak trees. Everything was provided and well stocked for our stay including the patio area. So nice to be outdoors. It was a lovely place to stay. Will recommend this home to friends or anyone staying in this area.

  Loved it!!! Close to Solvang, Los Olivos, Santa Ynez and Ballard all charming little towns. Then back to Quail Casa to enjoy all the comforts of home. Relax outside with beautiful oak trees and natural surroundings. So much better than a motel room. Definitely going again.

  We had a wonderful stay at this house. It was perfect for two couples and was in the great location. It was away from all the hustle and bustle and in a beautiful location. The house was decorated so nicely and had everything we needed. We will definitely stay here again.

  We really enjoyed our stay in the Valley and your house was perfect for our group. We had a great BBQ and enjoyed the fire pit.

  What a fantastic getaway from the hustle and bustle of LA! The house is cozy and cute, the iPod sound system was an unexpected treat, and the land is absolutely beautiful. We sat on the patio during the day and evening, and walked to the top of the hill both days also. My brother and his fiancee got married under the trees in a perfect, simple ceremony. Then we rented a van and wine tasted all day! We used to always stay at a hotel when we traveled to this area, but now we're hoping we can book Quail Casa every time.

  Quail Casa is a private and peaceful retreat, located off the main roadways of Santa Ynez but only a brief drive from dozens of wineries in the area. The lovely picnic patio of Rusack Winery is within walking distance. The house is 15 minutes by car from the towns of Los Olivos (with its many wine tasting rooms), Solvang (the Danish village) and Buellton (home to the famous restaurants the Hitching Post and Andersen's). Excellent star-gazing at night and active wildlife, including quail and hummingbirds. Great grill and fire pit. The interior decor is impressively chic and the beds very comfortable. I would definitely come back with family, friends, or for a romantic getaway.

  Love the property, right off of Ballard Canyon Road. A bicyclers dream route! We rode the canyon every day. Peaceful, but close to the villages of Solvang, Los Olivos and Buellton. We walked to Rusack's for a tasting and picnic. Very comfy beds and nicely furnished, loved the fire pit and grill. Love SB County wine country! I will tell my friends about Quail Casa!
