  My friends and I (along with a very handsome Boxer doggie) stayed for a long weekend of wine-tasting and absolutely loved the cottage! It was a nice quiet location and we felt like it was truly a "getaway." The deck is fantastic, and has a great view of the surroundings. The owner was very responsive and I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to a friend! Thanks for a great weekend!

  Very quiet, secluded, and yet just minutes from wineries, paso Robles, and Cambria. Wood flooring throughout made it feel homey. Lots of stars and a sunny deck. Full kitchen and BBQ. My wife and dog and I enjoyed it greatly, easily ok for 4 people.

  We loved our week's stay at the clean and delightful cottage! Location, location, location! It's close to everything but away from it all in a wonderful country setting. We toured the central California coast from Arroyo Grande to Big Sur, wonderful beaches, old California missions, Hearst Castle and the wineries, we lost count!!! We'd certainly recommend this property, you'll get a fast, courteous reply, exactly as advertised.

  The Cottage was more than we imagined. It is nestled in a small canyon a few minutes off the highway. We were surprised how conveniently located it was. Went to Hearst Castle the day before we were to stay at the Cottage and stayed at a place in Cambria thinking that the Cottage was too far away (foolish thinking). Unlike twenty years ago Hwy. 46 is now a straight shot from the coast. It was only minutes before we came upon the turn off. If we had been aware of that we would have increased our stay. The Cottage is centrally located enough to make visits to Morro Bay to the south or Hearst Castle to the north along the coast and is located in the winery region of Paso Robles. You can be as connected as you want (my cell had 4 bars) and as secluded as you could possibly be. The large deck overlooking the valley and the wood burning stove were a nice addition to the experience. It was quiet, clean, bright and airy. Highly recommended!

  We recently stayed in the home here in Paso and was extremely happy with all the home trimmings, comfort and cleanliness when we arrived. Its' location is central to downtown Paso for dinning and very convenient to all the local wineries. We do plan on coming back in the summer time to enjoy the home again!

  A girlfriend and I enjoyed a delightful 3-day getaway in Paso this week. I can't imagine being more comfortable and cozy than we were in this adorable, spacious and well-equipped cottage. We really got the sense that the owners added their special touches to make sure that the experience was one to remember. Choose hiking, biking or just hanging out. Only about 15 minutes away from downtown Paso Robles, we were able to enjoy the solitude of the cottage and still go exploring and discovering some very cool restaurants and friendly people, too. I highly recommend this rental with spectacular views and all the comforts of home!

  We recently rented this property over the 2012 Thanksgiving holiday. We cooked a full holiday dinner in the well stocked kitchen. The overall property was clean, well appointed, comfortable and in the perfect location. It is well suited for 2-4 guests. The deck is very large with great views to watch the wild turkeys and deer roam across the property. It is secluded yet only minutes from Paso Robles, great local wineries and the beach in Cambria. It will be on top of the list for rental properties the next time we are in Paso Robles.

  Shadow Canyon cottage was the ideal place for my family and I to spend a long anticipated getaway. We only wish we could have spent a few more days so we could have enjoyed all of the little things the place had to offer, like the barbeque or the Christmas lights on the back porch. We didn't get to enjoy the beautiful outdoor furniture for as long as we'd have liked because of the chilly nights, but we did enjoy the stars for what bits of time we were out. The place is ideally placed for excursions to wineries, hikes in the park, and walks along the Cambria seafront, and would be completely stocked for cooking in and enjoying time at home!

  We had a great time staying at the cottage. This was a second stay for us and this year it was even better. The landscaping and added flowers around the cottage were an improvement on something we thought was already perfect. Staying at the cottage is ever so relaxing and yet close enough to anything you would want to do from wine tasting, to taking a stroll through Cambria, to hanging out at Pismo, or sunning at the beach. The cottage has all the added touches to give you the conveniences of home and it is always hard to leave. Thanks Kate and I’m sure we will see you (well your cottage), next year.

  My partner, son dog, and I had a fabulous retreat at Canyon Shadows. The location was great for exploring a variety of places and coming home to have a glass of wine on the deck was equally pleasurable. Our son loved looking at the myriad of stars through the telescope provided. We also saw a variety of wildlife. We loved our week long stay and intend on going back!
