Great location between downtown SLO and the beach. The cottage was fully equipped and you can tell everything was carefully planned. Even the outside had nice chairs and hiking trails that were clearly marked. I would definitely come again.
Loved the location, hospitality and the little touches in this sweet cottage. The hists went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable.
Higjky recommend!
We came up for a weekend stay to participate in the Spartan Race and see some sites like the Madonna Inn and Hearst Castle. We enjoyed our stay. It was clean, quiet, picturesque, easy to get to, and had almost every accommodation we required except a toaster.
Rustic and charming cottage, accessible to beaches and Edna Valley wine region. Well stocked. Lots of homey touches. We saw deer on the hill behind the cottage.
We really enjoyed our stay in the adorable Libretto Cottage. The hosts were very friendly and responsive - and they added many special touches to make their guests comfortable. We hope to return in the future! :)
While only minutes from SLO, Libretto cottage sits on a hill overlooking fields and trees. I felt at home as soon as we walked in. The hosts live next door, but respected our privacy. I visit my daughter and grandsons who live in Los Osos a few times a year. This cottage is now my go-to rental. Whether wanting to experience all the amenities of the central coast towns, beaches, and wineries or just to sit quietly with a book under a tree, visitors will enjoy staying in this cottage.
I spent 5 nights at Tim and Hayley's cottage. They are great hosts. They do all the little thungs that often go unnoticed, but set this pace apart from other vacation rentals. This place is so charming, peaceful and quiet. I don't know how to say it other than it has SOUL. It just has this vibe that put's you at ease. It was exactly the experience I was looking for in a gettaway. Close to friends in the area and all the things to do on the Central Coast and yet removed enough to relax. I'm already looking at my calendar to see when I can return. Thank you Hayley and Tim!
The Libretto cottage was exactly as described in the listing. Owners nearby and in close communication for any possible need. 1940's cottage was decorated with taste and functionality. Everything you need is here! A lit trail begins at back of property with the view of Edna Valley your reward at the top. No A/C but nights were cool and windows open keep temps comfortable. Bed comfortable and futon comfortable as well. Relaxing and quiet but 4 miles to the beach and the 101 for easy travel north and south. Wine country nearby. So much to do; so little time!
Highly recommend!
The property has a great location. The beach is nearby and easy to get to. The cottage has many items for things to do at night including books. The views and hikes were excellent. The host was wonderful and very helpful.
Libretto Cottage is nestled at the foot of a hillside surrounded by oaks that provide shade and cool on a lovely, well cared for property. The cottage has outdoor seating so visitors can take in the surrounding trees and wildlife. A really wonderful place to spend some time.
Nice cabin with plenty of room. Comfortable and quiet - in the country but only 10 minutes from Arroyo Grande, Pismo and Grover Beach. View of Edna valley if you care to hike it - definitely worth it. Pleasant outdoor spaces with nice flowers and plants and the occasional deer and Quail to keep you company.
With everything you need to just grab the bottles of the wine you bought during you tastings, and relax outside enjoying the gorgeous setting. The kitchen has everything you need to make anything you desire. I am only sorry that the event I attended didn't allow me to spend more time at the cottage, it was lovely.
The cottages were really quaint, cute,charming are just a few words to describe this cottage. It was everything we expected and more. The location was perfect as it was close to our wedding destination at Villa Loriana. Surrounded by beautiful Oaks and a great hike up to a Edna Valley lookout the grounds were exceptional. The cottage was well stocked with everything that you will need and the host was very helpful. Electric charging was available and helped greatly. 5 stars for sure
