Weekend Getaway in Cozy Mountain Wine Country

My friend and I had been hearing about Paso for the last couple of years, and took the chance to enjoy a long weekend. My mother decided to join last minute - which was a great addition. The property is clearly cared for well and the hosts are active in communication throughout the stay. Conveniently located to several wineries and wonderful scenic views, this is a great space and we’ve already started talking about our next visit.

Just wow =)

What a great place, one of the rare cases it turns out to be better than the pictures. Communication with Lisa was great and she provided a nice little guide with recommendations since it was our first time in the area, which we ended up following almost everything =). The cottage is great, equipped with everything you need and the views are awesome. We got rain and sun and it is great either way. You almost don't want to leave the cottage to explore the area. Since this was our first time in the region we did went to spend the day out but making sure to get the sunset at the cottage, highly recommended. Next time will definitely spend some days just enjoying the cottage.

Excellent place to relax and unwind

This property is in an ideal location to get away. This is my second time here and I will return in the future. The house is immaculately clean. The furnishings are very impressively Zen. Comfortable beds. Beautiful views in every direction. Brand new grill and plenty of seating outdoors to enjoy the views. Make sure to schedule in time just to enjoy the house and unwind.

About the host

Hosted by Owner/Manager

Randy and Lisa Stromsoe. We are lifetime career, working artist professionals. Randy is one of the last traditionally trained silversmiths in America. www.randystromsoe.com
Working in our studio, surfing, gardening, ping pong, basketball, music and art. That is what you'll find us doing everyday. Oh, and cleaning and maintaining the cottage!!

Why they chose this property

We purchased this acreage (26) in 1999 with nothing but one framed out two story barn standing alone and a rickety old cabin on the hill. We own both sides of Old Creek Road. "Our" side is 10 acres with our home studio (used to be the barn) and "Your" side is the remaining acreage with a vineyard and our guest cottage.

What makes this property unique

THEEEEE PERFECT LOCATION! You'll have complete privacy, your own land and road and gate at the beginning and end of the road that goes up to the cottage. Adjacent to our property is the LAND CONSERVANCY / Santa Rita Ranch which creates a corridor for wildlife to travel through this mountain range, the Santa Lucia's. Our location 1/2 way between the Pacific Ocean and Paso Robles downtown brings in a coastal influence which typically keeps our weather temperate. Having us live right across the road makes it handy if you need anything during your stay. It's a blink of an eye (under 5 minutes) to VINEYARD DRIVE and some of the most amazing "west side" wineries. Trader Joe's is 11 minutes away.
If you head down Old Creek Road 15 minutes max, you'll hit the coast and if you turn right you are in Cayucos (Ruddell's smoked fish tacos) and to the left - Morro Bay for fresh fish (restaurant and fish market) at Dockside II on the wharf.
