Very enjoyable and relaxing stay

My wife and I, daughter, and two of her college friends (5 people total) really enjoyed our stay here. Jodi greeted us during our check-in and walked us through the house. Both Jodi and Mark were very gracious hosts, and we didn't have any complaints. The location is very close (within minutes) to a lot of the wineries we visited, and at night the place is very quiet and peaceful. We would highly recommend this location, and it was very spacious for 5 adults.

Great Quiet Spot off the Beaten Path

In short, this property is amazing! It was the perfect spot for a weekend getaway, just 20-30 minutes from the beach or Paso Robles. Our hosts were incredible and made sure to make our stay the best it could be and even provided us with some breakfast foods for our first morning. Highly recommend the stay, it may seem a little out of the way, but the truly wonderful and amazing hosts make it beyond worthwhile.

A Memorable Time

Everything about our stay was wonderful. Jody and Mark are some of most helpful and gracious hosts we've met. They made everything about our stay with elderly parents easy and comfortable. Their home is beautiful and the environment was amazing. We especially enjoyed the wildlife and the beautiful porch and outdoors area around the house. Definitely a top-notch place to visit and stay!

Jody was so welcoming and quick to respond to questions. She had fresh baked brownies waiting for us, and stocked the refrigerator with a few breakfast staples. The location was absolutely beautiful and peaceful…we loved seeing many deer just outside our windows. Very comfortable rooms, the home is located about 10 minutes from the freeway, making it easy to head into Paso and Cambria

Wonderful Graduation/Father’s Day/Birthday Weekend

Perfect location! Such a beautiful house tucked away in a relaxing, scenic setting. Jody is a super host who went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed from wifi, yummy treats and necessities to all the homey touches. She kept in touch with us throughout our stay all the while a busy weekend herself with her son’s wedding. Such a super host. We would definitely stay again.

Terrific, tranquil getaway for my family

Our family of 4 was looking for a nice, peaceful getaway spot to explore the central coast as well as the Paso Robles area... Jody & Mark’s place was a perfect fit. Setback in the woods a bit, it offered just enough seclusion to be away from things but also close enough to get everywhere we wanted to go. Jody was one of the most accommodating hosts I’ve experienced with our VRBO rentals. Many thanks to her for going the extra mile to make our stay a memorable one. Thank you! We’ll for sure be back another time.

Best VRBO Experience Ever

We arrived to discover this beautiful Vicortian home in a forest like setting and to our host Jody Landon greeting us at the front porch. The home and surrounding area was beautiful. We had several occasions to converse with Jody and her husband and found them to be incredibly nice. They were very accommodating and gracious. Our group consisted of two couples and we intend to make this trip an annual event and to stay at their home. Thank you Jody and Mark for an unforgettable trip.

Great place!

We loved this rental and only wished we could have stayed longer. It’s just as beautiful as the pictures show and absolutely immaculate. So nice to be out in the peaceful countryside with gorgeous views, wildlife, and a million stars at night, yet only 20min from wineries, spas, and restaurants. The beds were comfortable, there was lots of room to relax and the small kitchen was very well stocked for breakfast! Jody and Mark couldn’t have been nicer - friendly and attentive to our needs, yet very respectful of privacy too. We couldn’t have asked for more. We’d love to go back sometime.

Adorable

Our family had a really nice experience. It felt like we were staying in a remote tree house. There’s deer and peacocks roaming the property as you drive up the hill. We explored around the woods nearby (all on the owners property) and it felt like we were camping, but with all the hotel type amenities (hot water, kitchen, TV). It couldn’t have been more relaxing actually. It was so peaceful and quite. Loved it.

This property is located in a gorgeous oak woodland area in the hills not far from town. The mist rolls in early in the mornings and the scene is magical. It was exactly what we were hoping for; peaceful, relaxing, comfortable & away from town & traffic noise. The variety of birds, including owls, along with deer wandering around the property made our stay that much more enjoyable.Jody and Mark are absolutely wonderful...the consummate hosts! You could not ask for nicer people. They are warm & engaging. We enjoyed our conversations with them immensely. We were shown around the property upon our arrival & provided with freshly baked muffins & brownies. There was also fruit, bagels, and a few other staples in the well-stocked kitchen. No details were overlooked. We had a fabulous 3-day stay here and we are already looking forward to staying here again!Thank you so much for your hospitality, funny stories and thoughtfulness, Jody and Mark!

Relaxing, serene, peaceful and charming!

My BFFS and I stayed here for our annual "girls weekend". Jody and Mark were the best hosts! They had fresh baked banana bread and a plate of oatmeal cookies for us! Also, she stocked the fridge with a dozen eggs! We had so much fun and the location is so close to Paso Robles, SLO, and Cayucos! We've gone to Cambria the past two years so we thought we'd try something different. I am so blessed to have met Jody...what a gem! You will have to sit on their front porch...this was such a treat!!!! They turned on the lights for us and told us not to worry about the "noise"....but we did our best to be respectful. If you need a place to stay while in town for a weekend definitely book this place!

About the host

Hosted by Jody Landon

Host profile image
We are empty nesters who love to share our beautiful property and community with others. One of us loves to cook, the other loves to eat. One loves to write and the other loves to read. We live in the house but it is entirely closed off from yours.

Why they chose this property

We purchased this property 34 years ago when our growing family needed some elbow room. With a deep respect for the land, we painstakingly designed a large house that we would share with hundreds of friends throughout the years. Now that the kids are gone, we have made some changes to the home so that we can let others enjoy part of the house with their privacy in mind, and the property as well. It is beautiful, covered with oak trees and frequently visited by wild turkeys and deer. It is a truly unique and peaceful place that I know you will not be disappointed in.

The central coast offers hiking, golfing, wine-tasting and we are literally 8 minutes from the 101 and Hwy 46 yet nestled in an oak forest on a beautiful hill. This place is unbelievable, clean and peaceful.

What makes this property unique

The peaceful setting is perfect for a relaxing night sleep yet it is very close to all of the fabulous places to enjoy in the Central Coast! We love our porch with its romantic chandeliers and rocking chairs. Stroll down the road and you're going to see several vineyards as well as wildlife.
