Great Hosts. Very responsive and communication was great. Property is situated really great and everything downtown in walkable. The unit is very well stocked.Would definitely stay here again.
We had a fabulous time your place is adorable. I highly recommend it to anyone and would be happy to write any kind of review or write up for you… Even sending you some cute photos. Thank you again for everything. You were both amazing hosts.
We absolutely loved our stay in Paso Robles with our super cool, attentive hosts.Everything about the property was fabulous. We especially loved all of the little touches that made our stay more comfortable. They thought of everything: from makeup remover wipes, shower caps, Keurig coffee pods and Coffee Mate creamers; things we needed to make breakfast like pans, canola spray. There are too many things to note. And the proximity to the main square in Paso was fantastic. We would not hesitate to stay with Kirk and Lisa again.

Comfortable, clean and cozy cottage within easy walking distance of the lively downtown area with many restaurants, bars and wine tasting rooms to choose from!
Beautiful home right in the heart of Paso! Check in was a breeze. The owner called us before our arrival to make sure everything was smooth and gave us some great tips for our stay.

Jessica - We are pleased you enjoyed your stay at The Porch! Come again....
This is the perfect place to stay in Paso Robles. It’s was immaculate with even amenity you could need. It was thoughtfully decorated with a spacious porch and a private patio. It was walking distance to town, only a couple of blocks away. Close to restaurants and wine tastings rooms. I will be back.
The location is unbelievable. The hosts, excellent and the entire trip was exceptional. I can’t recommend this place enough. Will certainly be back.

Caitlin - We enjoyed hosting you during your visit to Paso! Thank you for the lovely review! Sincerely - Lisa & Kirk
Came up with a friend and we actually enjoyed the place so much we stayed in one entire day.
We loved having access to downtown whenever we wanted. We did not have to take the car out much for outings . We had everything we needed for a long weekend.
What a fantastic location, just a few steps to downtown Paso. Kirk and Lisa have done an amazing job with this cozy space with comfy beds, extra blankets and pillows, and a fully equipped kitchen. Make sure you peruse the guestbook BEFORE you fully commit to your plans. So many great recommendations. Our faves were JUSTIN, Calcareous, Epoch, and The Hatch.
This is the perfect place for either a couple or a family or two couples. It's close to downtown, but on a quiet street. The place is immaculate and well designed. The owners are excellent and so quick in response to any questions you may have. The kitchen is well equipped with basics. I brought my own baggies and Tupperware so I could take home my leftovers. The porch is beautiful and relaxing. I will definitely stay here again!!!!

Cute place in a great location
This little cottage is so perfect for a weekend of exploring Paso Robles. It's one block from downtown and very comfortable. It was a hot weekend while we were here but the cottage stays cool, even when the A/C is off and when you do turn on the A/C it cools off very quickly.
We didn't use the kitchen this time but it seemed to have most of what you would need to prepare meals. The front porch is a perfect place to sit and enjoy a glass of wine at the end of the day. The beds were very comfortable and quiet.
We would definitely come back and stay here again the next time we come to Paso.

Best way to enjoy a 65 birthday!
My father in law was running 65 and wanted to do a golf weekend with his son. So the wives tagged along and it was great! Good Poarch to visit and didn't have to stare awkwardly at each other from hotel beds. The carpets are sooooo soft. Kirk and Lisa stopped by to say and they are just as cute as the house. They spent a lot of time, money and love restoring and remodeling the house. And it was worth it. We are already planning when we can come back.

Steps to Downtown, Comfort All Around, Great Hosts
We had an amazing stay in Paso Robles, and a huge part of that was thanks to the incredible hosts, Kirk and Lisa. They went above and beyond by asking us what we wanted to do in the area and offering great recommendations. The place itself was spotless and incredibly inviting—it had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The beds were super cozy, and the outdoor space was a nice bonus.The best part? The location! It’s within walking distance to everything you could want in downtown Paso, making it so easy to explore. We also had two cars with us, and parking wasn’t an issue at all. There was one parking space. Overall, it was a perfect spot for our trip—cool, comfortable, and convenient. Highly recommend!
