The Neighborhood:
Ballard (Solvang), the center of the Santa Ynez Valley was the first town that settled here in the late 1800's!
Surrounded by vineyards, mountains, horse ranches, farms and schoolhouses, you feel as you have arrived in a time warp of sorts where simple pleasures, mossy oaks, grassy fields, and warm sunny days are found.
We feel so fortunate to live here, closely guard its quiet serenity and are grateful for all the beauty, amenities, world class wineries, restaurants, breweries, and shopping this Valley has to offer.
A Beautiful route from our home to the charming towns of Los Olivos, Santa Ynez, Solvang or Buellton takes only 5 to 10 minutes by car.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Host profile image
Hi, my name is Kris, happily married to my wife Hilde. We have one son, live in California, for 29 years and feel very fortunate to call Ballard (Solvang), Home since 2012. Our pooches Ozzy and Rocco complete our family here! They stay at our home, Not at the rental, but run around on the property, keep the coyotes out and all off us safe. They are very sweet and Rocco is super social and eager to meet you, but only if you are up for it. Ozzy is a bit more shy and won't come to close to you without me being with him. We enjoy life, Friends and Fine Cuisine accompanied with a glass of wine or a delicious Beer!
We are looking forward to host for you!
Cheers!
