This place was exactly what we needed, a gorgeous relaxing and fun place for the family to spend a long weekend before school started. The pool was the highlight, but everything about the house was great. Honestly, we rarely book the same place on VRBO, but I think in this case we will be coming back!

Gorgeous Stay!

We loved everything about this home and the property! It was well-described in the listing and still exceeded our expectations! Communication with property manager was quick and clear. Kitchen equipment was great for our group. There are lots of places to be on one's own, and plenty of space for all to gather together to play games and share meals.

Peace and quiet with a great view

Just recently got back from a stay at this property. Had high expectations and they were exceeded. Nick, the owner, was refreshingly responsive, and made sure our stay went without a hitch. If you’re looking for a one of a kind property and have forgotten what the sound of silence is, this is your place. Thanks again, Nick.

Amazing getaway

We had a magical weekend under the sun in the pool, under the sky by the fire, and relaxing with the incredible view of the hills and ocean. Central coast and all it has to offered is very accessible but the ranch is remote and peaceful. Best of all worlds. And the beds were very comfortable too.

Dream House

Our stay was perfect. Nicholoas was extremely accommodating and easy to communicate with. The house is beyond beautiful and comfortable and was super well stocked! Although the property was the most amazing part with insane views and cows mooing to wake you in the morning. It is tucked back a little far into the mountains but totally worth the extra drive. Hoping to come back for another stay!

Zen

Our family needed a reset vacation and this home definitely hit the mark. We were able to relax in peace and quiet with no one else around. Such a beautiful home and the property was amazing! We walked along the streams , we went swimming in the heated pool, enjoyed the spa, worked on puzzles, built fires, watched movies. And the views were breathtaking!Nick, the host was always available and very friendly and helpful. We will definitely be revisiting again!

Amazing Location - quite remote

We were in town for my daughter's graduation from Cal Poly Slo. We wanted to combine our grad visit with some vacation time with family so we took an extended weekend and went to this beautiful home. From the moment we walked in through the courtyard to the house we just marveled at how nice this place was. Then we saw the view from the back yard and it was just breathtaking. All of the amenities are top notch from cookware to the sound system to the entertainment system, to the beds and bathrooms...we wtere blown away. It was just plain excellent. The only warning I will give is that it is remote. It's a tight, curvy, hilly drive and to get down the hill and back takes some effort. It's okay because we really didn't want to leave much, but I suggest that you do all of your grocery shopping before you head up the hill and just enjoy this amazing home. Nick, our host, was extremely responsive too. 10 out of 10 recommend.

Family Vacation

This was one of the most amazing properties we have ever stayed at. The home and the property was beautiful, clean and comfortable. The views were outstanding. Our entire family enjoyed the pool, the hot tub and even a night in for a homemade dinner and an evening of cards. It has everything you need and is still only a short drive from restaurants, beaches and shopping. We also met the caretaker and he was wonderful and kind and just a call away. And Nicholas was so responsive and provided info on everything we needed to make the stay easy and relaxing. We would stay again and would recommend to anyone. You will not be disappointed.

Incredible all around!

The ranch is magical and perfection, from the rolling hills scattered with cows to the views for miles. The house is beautiful with nice antique furniture, huge ceilings, plenty of room for gathering or peace and quiet. The house has everything needed for cooking which was really convenient to have access to blender, steamer, and plenty of dishes for a large group. The kids room even has stuffed animals and books for kids, they loved it! Pool toys were a huge help too. We brought most things we needed with us, but next time we will pack lighter! Can't say enough good things about this place and the immense gratitude for sharing the ranch with our group!

"Best birthday EVER!"

I chose that title because I just heard my wife say this to her friend, a couple of hours after returning from our 3-day stay. There were ten of us, ages 3 - 75. Communication was great from the beginning until the day we left. The house exceeded all expectations. You've probably read this before, but please trust me, the photos do not do it justice. Terrific place, amazing location. And, bonus ... we saw a rocket launch (from Vandenberg) on the way up, two sightings of the International Space Station, the lunar eclipse and shooting stars, not to mention abundant wildlife. It was the best birthday ever.

Extraordinary

This was the perfect house for an unbelievable vacation. Every detail was exactly as they stated in the listing. Nick made every part of this seamless and efficient. We met Joe, the maintenance manager who lives nearby. Joe was awesome! I just cannot say enough about our stay. We had everything we could have possibly needed in this house. We just looked around every day and said “wow, did you see this? Beautiful.” The views are outstanding, the beds are comfortable, the pool and the hot tub are definitely a highlight and the cows added that extra layer of different and unique. We are already planning our next trip and can’t get back soon enough!

Breathtaking property, excellent house, well built and appointed

Stayed with family (parents in their 80's and siblings in 50's) over the holidays and could not have asked for a better experience. The property is truly exceptional with rolling hills, oak forests, cute goats and sheep, 100% privacy, and breathtaking views. Home is very well stocked, thoughtfully appointed, well built and maintained with an excellent layout. Property manager is very responsive and great communication with the owner. Lovely people. Note, it got unusually cool during our stay even for mid-winter (50's during the day and 30's at night) which made it tough to get the pool very warm even though the heating does run the full time. Keep the cover on the pool when not in use helps as does a swim after the hot tub. With that you'll be fine. We've rent 50+ homes around the world for our vacations and this is easily one of the best. Many thanks for a really magical stay and we can't wait to come back.
