About this property
Quaint house walking distance to downtown
Located in SLO's Old Town Historic District, featuring beautifully restored Victorian and Craftsman homes, this two bedroom Craftsman is less than a 5 minute walk to downtown shops/restaurants/nightlife. Despite its central location, the house is situated on a quiet street without heavy traffic. The property includes a private yard with a large (8 person) hot tub and grill.
The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need for gourmet or casual cooking. The living room features a flatscreen TV, HD DirecTV, and full sized sofa. Each of the bedrooms features a very comfortable queen sized bed (1 sleigh bed and 1 brass bed). There is also a desk in the primary bedroom. It’s a cozy little house ideal for families or friends. As it is an older home, it has its quirks! A couple things to be aware of: 1. the water pressure in the shower can be low. Avoid running other water during shower time. 2. If you choose to use the window AC, avoid also using other appliances as it will trip the fuse. Please note, the driveway is our neighbor’s and cannot be used for any reason. Parking is available on the street and can sometimes be a challenge, especially on Thursday nights due to farmers market downtown. Other features include: -Pack n play -Free Wi-Fi -Washer/Dryer -Dishwasher -Pet Friendly
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Wonderful house, adorable yard with hot tub and excellent location. We walked to downtown for the farmers market easily. Kitchen has everything you need. Highly recommend.
We travel with our two senior dogs, and they are very happy in this house and yard. The location of the house is great, neighborhood is quiet, beds are comfortable.

This property was very close to downtown San Luis Obispo, which was so convenient. It was also pet-friendly, which is very important to us. Great neighborhood to take the dog out for her walks! The curb appeal is quaint. The interior of the property, however, is incredibly worn. Some home improvement projects are definitely in order. Fresh paint and a deep clean would be advantageous. The trash in the bathroom from the previous guest had not been emptied before our arrival, which was disconcerting. There was also white pet hair all over the sofa from the prior occupant that had not been vacuumed up. This, combined with crumbs on the stovetop and grit on the ground, led us to believe that the home had not been appropriately cleaned before our arrival. We are extraordinarily clean people and this was very unfortunate. It also led to our 3 star rating. Could be a nice option if it was properly cleaned and maintained.
This was our second stay at this location. Not many places in the area allow two dogs over 50 pounds, or have yards that are dog friendly. We plan to stay here again.
We had a delightful time. It was very comfortable. We enjoyed every aspect of the home, neighborhood, town and drives to the coast.I would love to come again if you’ll have us.

So glad you enjoyed your stay! I’d be happy to host you again.
Charming home that has the perfect location a few blocks from downtown. Michelle was very responsive, and the house was clean and had everything we needed. Perfect backyard area for our dogs, too!
We had an excellent stay at this well appointed and charming house. It was very close to downtown shopping and dining. We were able to walk there easily. The home was also very dog friendly for our pups. Thank you so much for an amazing stay!
We had such a great stay, and did not want to leave! It is an older home, but very nicely appointed and a great location. Everything was so easy from beginning to end Rand communication from the owners/managers was wonderful. I really hope that we can return soon!
This cozy house was just the right size for my cousin and I visiting the SLO area. Very clean, comfortable couch and beds and stocked kitchen in case you want to cook. Very walkable to historic downtown to restaurants and shops. Nice patio set in backyard to enjoy dinner and a glass of wine. Would stay here again.
Came to SLO for a family wedding. The house is located in a quiet neighborhood close to downtown. Great access to surrounding area. Would definitely come back
Very comfortable house near downtown SLO. Owners are clear about amenities, check in, and parking. Bathroom remodeled and spiffy looking washer and dryer are available. Enjoyed walking to downtown shops and eateries.
We could walk downtown anywhere yet we slept like babies in this quiet neighborhood. Wonderful bed and linens. Breakfast at home and no hotel to deal with.
