HISTORY:
The Flying Caballos Ranch was originally owned by the Alfred Madonna family in the early 1900's and encompassed several hundred acres, operating as a dairy farm. The Madonna's grew their own vegetables, vineyard, and orchard. They hunted deer and fished for salmon, all on the ranch. Currently, the ranch consists of approximately 100 acres with horse and cattle grazing, a year-round creek, and unobstructed views of Edna Valley and Islay Hill.

We had an amazing vacation.
This property was just magical and so charming. The house was very clean and the grounds well kept. It was nearby the wineries and still close to downtown. The host was incredibly helpful and welcoming. We hope to visit again in the future.

The perfect getaway location
Sarah’s property is amazing! My friends and I had such a nice time, the property is so peaceful and calming, but you are also so close to all of the San Luis Obispo amenities. We even walked to dinner one night! The house itself was so cute and really authentic, we had a great time just hanging out in the backyard and bbqing. Sarah was so easy to communicate with, I would highly recommend a stay at the Flying Caballos Ranch!
