We loved our stay at the property. It felt spacious and had great areas to gather together. Both the living room and family room had comfortable furniture which is a feature I look for in a vacation rental. The beds were also very comfortable and the master bedroom had access to the backyard through the bedroom and the master bath. The wood burning fireplace, outdoor fire pit and swimming pool all added to the enjoyment of the property. It was extremely quiet and peaceful while being in a perfect location to get to Paso, Templeton and Cambria at the coast. We would definitely return for another visit! Thank you

Great house for family vacation

There were plenty of space to socialize with the entire family and at the same time enough space to hide away and get some peace. It's an amazing getaway. It's hidden away so you can sit outside in the backyard or in the front and enjoy the amazing views with your favorite beverage. Definitely recommend this hidden gem with a full equipped kitchen for family cooking and socializing.

Exceeded Expectations

We all (2 adult couples) enjoyed our stay. The house is clean, spacious, well appointed. Terrific kitchen, yard, view. Wi-Fi and TV are first rate. We all agreed that we would gladly stay here again. We didn't have any with us this time, but would be great for kids and dogs. Highly recommended.

Great Service, Great Property - Perfect!

What a wonderful place to connect with family. Sarah & her staff were great, they were so helpful. Everything was perfect!! There was tons of space to socialize, play games, work on a puzzle & cook & eat together. We loved having the pool in the winter - what better way to bond than a family cold plunge everyday!!

Solitude at its best

The house is large and well equipped. We enjoyed being outside in the fenced in backyard with our dogs. It wasn’t swimming pool temperatures but the pool is large, clean and well maintained. The location is close to many things but far enough away that you can enjoy the solitude of being in nature.

Great House for a Fun Trip

I stayed here with a few friends for a “girls weekend”. The location of the house was very close to the string of wineries along the 46 highway, as well as the mid state fair that happened to be running while we were there. The house was very comfortable, clean, and well taken care of. (Including very comfortable beds). The pool is a huge plus as well. The property surrounding the home is beautiful and gives the feeling of being secluded but also not too far from things. We did have an issue with the air conditioning during our stay that ended up getting replaced, but the communication and management of the situation from the host were excellent and timely. Overall, we had a great stay here. Hopefully we will be back!

Amazing rental. Beautiful on the inside & out.

This was hands down one of the best vacation house rentals we have ever stayed at. The house itself is beautiful, updated, clean, and the beds are so comfortable. They think of everything you could possibly need, having toiletries on hand and a reference binder with local areas of interest. The pictures shown online are good, however in person let me assure you it is even better. The pool area is like a sanctuary, and it is so big it is like having a hotel pool to yourself. It is in the most beautiful location, making every drive we made scenic. The property host is beyond helpful. This is not a property that once they receive your money you can't get in touch with them. It looks like alot of love and care has been put into this property, it is amazing. If I didn't want to see the world, I would come back here for every vacation.
