Coyote Hills a perfect gathering place for our family of 18 coming from all over California. The house is large so we never felt over crowded. The outdoor pool area is fabulous. The kitchen is well stocked with all the equipment needed for us to have fun preparing our meals. I would recommend this home for a group gathering!

Thank you so much! We're so glad you enjoyed the house size, pool, and the fully stocked kitchen. :-)
Coyote Hills Ranch is top notch. We did not want to leave. The property and setting are gorgeous and serene; the views are incredible; the house is grand, immaculate, recently renovated, and even more spacious than imagined from the photos. The outdoor seating and pool area are dreamy. The host is communicative, responsive, and provided helpful tips for the area. She ensured the house was prepared and that the stay would go as smoothly as possible. We loved our time at Coyote Hills Ranch.

Thank you so much for the glowing review! We are thrilled to hear that you loved your stay at Coyote Hills Ranch and found the home and setting as special as we do. It means a lot to know you enjoyed the views, outdoor spaces, and the comfort of the house itself.
The house was amazing - huge rooms/bathrooms - but I think our favorite part which was more surprising was the location. Because it was a little outside town the views looked out over unobstructed/untouched Los Padres forest all around - so stunning! We really enjoyed our stay.

The private location and views from the hill top property were amazingly beautiful especially during our early April stay with green all around us.The home is spacious and focused on the pool area and views. The two large suites are large are well appointed. The third guest room is very comfortable. The bunk room and 4th bedroom are quite small.We would return for sure!

We’re happy to hear you had a great visit! Don’t hesitate to reach out when you're ready to book your next stay.
Everything we were looking for to get the family time, rest and relaxation we needed. Beautiful home (palace?) and perfectly located. Away from the rest of the world while still being a short drive away from other attractions and destinations, i.e the beach, Santa Barbara, hiking trails. Michelle, the property manager was super communicative and was able to respond to and handle every question and/or concern we had. Looking forward to our next stay here!

Thank you! We're so glad you found the location to be centrally located to what you wanted to visit. We look forward to your next visit too!
We rented this beautiful and stunning property to commemorate my late husband’s 1yr death anniversary. This property was perfect in every way with the breathtaking views of the mountains especially during sunset. This home was fully stocked with everything you can think of even with a shaved ice maker with flavored syrups!! Very clean and updated home. Beds were comfortable and the bathrooms with the bidet’s… hands down! Family enjoyed swimming with stunning views. Location wasn’t far from grocery stores and restaurants. We enjoyed the nearby casino and of course Solvang and Ostrich Land.Michelle made check in and check out very easy and was always just a phone call away if I had any questions. I would definitely come back to this property. My family is having withdrawals!

We're honored you chose this home for such a meaningful stay. It sounds like your family made the most of everything, from sunsets to shaved ice to poolside fun. We're glad it brought comfort, joy, and a few sweet memories.
We were looking for a location for a small group to relax and spend a long weekend. Came across Coyote hills.
Precheckin and checkin process was very smooth. Only surprise was heating the pool was an extra cost.
Found location easily. Very impressed by the decor and maintenance of the property. Spent a lot of time in the pool with both kids and grown ups had a good time.
We had an issue with the thermostat and Michelle tried ti solve it as best as she could.
Location and tranquility was the best part of the visit.
