This victorian was an absolutely beautiful property that was perfect for my family's reunion. Many family members flew into Paso Robles from the east coast for my son's wedding and everyone exclaimed at the beauty and set-up of the house and of course the wonderful pool and patios. The outdoor space and pool were perfect for a post-wedding Sunday brunch! Thank you for the chance to stay in your wonderful home!

On arrival the property is located in a beautiful neighborhood just a short walk from downtown. Making it so convenient with a large group to take a morning walk for brunch, coffee and shopping before starting the days activities. The pool was the best thing to have to quickly refresh and cool off from the summer heat! The property and rooms were clean, well stocked with pool towels and shower towels for the group of our size, especially for it being a girls weekend! We stay here again for a family weekend and recommend for a large group!

Lovely oasis!

Such a quaint, functional space that worked great for our family vacation. Loved how the pool area was mostly shaded and the bathrooms are all beautifully renovated. The only downside was the early check out time (10am). We didn’t want to leave!

large family getaway

Wonderful stay at the Stowell House. 4 day getaway with adult children and significant others. Stowell house is a charming large victorian on a large private lot at the end of a street just blocks from the Paso Robles town square. We found it extremely comfortable with plenty of room for our family of 8. Would definitely stay againl

Great for big family

This house was perfect for our 8 family members. We loved the space and it had everything we needed to cook and enjoy our time together. The close proximity to downtown was a must have for us and it was easily walked for our 60+ year old aunts. Thank you for sharing your beautiful historic home with us.

Great House, Great Location

We were five couples that stayed for a Saturday beer festival in Paso and had the best time. The house is located right in the heart of downtown, so walking to food and drinks on Friday was a breeze, and after the beer festival we got to enjoy the amazing backyard and pool. The hosts were very accommodating and quick to reply with any questions we had. We will definitely be renting here again for future Paso Robles trips.

Charming and comfortable old Victorian home.

Very good experience renting this old, quant Victorian home. Plenty of room for 9 of us. Great location to downtown Paso Robles. Owner was very responsive when our coffee maker didn’t work and it was replaced immediately. I recommend this home and would stay hear again.

Beautiful, spacious and great location

The Stowell House was a wonderful place to stay while visiting Paso Robles! We had 4 adult couples staying for an extended weekend and loved our VRBO choice. After visiting wineries during the day, we were able to come home and walk to/from dinner every evening. The yard was spacious and had ample seating to enjoy in the afternoon/early evening. There were plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms available for all 8 adults. Would definitely choose this house to stay at again.

Great house for family vacation

Our family of 10 adults and grandbaby had a wonderful stay. We had plenty of room inside and out. The pool-house was perfect for our daughter/son-in-law and grandbaby to stay. Although it was pretty warm outside (in the 90's) the pool stayed nice and cold! The house has 2 A/C units (upstairs/downstairs) and worked great! Lots of shade around the pool too. Hope to stay again!

Beautiful, Charming House

Enjoyed our stay at Stowell House. The house has old school charm but pleasant updates. It is very close to the center of town and it is very walkable from there. It is in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood with plenty of street parking. Please be aware all of the bedrooms in the main house are up a fairly steep set of stairs, so anyone with mobility issues should consider this. Would definitely stay again.
