This property is great for pets, located in a very nice neighborhood with a good park close by for walks. Also close to downtown, the train station and a shopping center with a grocery store, CVS, etc. Beds are comfortable, good pillows, quiet area. Kitchen has plenty of dishes, cutlery, glassware, well equipped (only missing an ice cream scoop ! ). The fenced front yard with "fake" grass worked well for our dogs. The back yard is also good but one of my dogs wanted to run around the second unit in the back, so I did not let her off lead there. Front and back yards are both nicely landscaped.

This was such a lovely cottage and we had a great time! The host, Pauline, is clearly very experienced and thought of all sorts of things to have on hand, as well as to tell people about the house and all of it was very helpful. The house was also very nicely furnished and had a nice outdoor space on the back patio.Given there was only 1 bathroom it might be a little tight for more than 2-3 people, but for us, a couple, it was the perfect space and we enjoyed the location as well, which was close to a park and only about a mile to downtown. We’ll be back the next time we’re in SLO!

We stayed here while moving our daughter into her sorority house this September and really enjoyed our stay - Great property in a good location. The house is so cozy with everything we needed. Very well laid out and lots of storage. The back yard was perfect for our dog. Easy access to downtown and the university. One of the best VRBO properties we have stayed in.
I now need a fort porch swing for my house too!!
