About susan

Pictured are sons Kristopher and MIchael with Susan and Roger sitting on our 90 year old 90 foot Monterey Pine that had died in the front yard of our old Magetti farm house. We had it milled and installed as flooring and trim in the downstairs main area of our Cottontail Creek Ranch house. It is like walking on liquid carmel corn.

Why susan chose Cayucos

How did we get started in the Vacation Rental business? In 1999 our family had been living on Cottontail Creek Road on the Magetti Ranch for 22 years when the adjoining property came on the market. We wanted to expand agriculturally which we immediately did by adding more avocados, more cattle and oranges to the ranch. That left the question, what do we do with this extraordinary Cottontail Creek Ranch home built in 1978? Our goal is sustainability and the vacation rental does that as well as fulfills the home's destiny by entertaining tourists from around the world. The house truly combines luxury and homeyness while the views beckon you outdoors. We feel that Cottontail Creek Ranch is the perfect location for sharing this part of old California with others. The byproduct of this has been meeting wonderful people while connecting them to the land.

What makes this Country house/chateau unique

'So much to Do or NOT, Close to everything the Central Coast has to offer' is what I tell potential guests. Walk in the hills and valleys. Meet the cows and chickens. Take a tour of the orchards. Pick herbs out of the landscaping. Breath in the country. Order CTC grass fed beef, check our website to order. If you do choose to venture out and leave the ranch the first wine tasting room is 15 minutes away and the beach is 12 minutes the opposite direction. The climate is moderate with a marine influence without a lot of fog and the extreme heat of inland, ' JUST RIGHT'! Staying at the ranch can be restful and quiet or full of activity, your choice. The location of our home makes it easy for our guests to enjoy the great outdoors without leaving the house, the patios and porches. You can also fill your days with hiking, walking and biking the property then take off for some wine tasting and beach activities or drive to Hearst Castle for a tour and the Big Sur Coast. We share any fruit and vegetables that are ready for harvest. We normally have oranges, lemons and limes all year long. Seasonally we have avocados, herbs and artichokes from the edible landscaping. It is great to live off the land.
