We had a wonderful family stay. The house and the property were great. The house is much bigger than the pictures. The location was very close to Avila beach and San Luis Obispo. The property was very private and unique. It felt very private.The frogs will sing you to sleep!

Lovely property in a peaceful setting!
We had 3 generations for Thanksgiving. The house itself is lovely and inviting, with several areas to gather, relax and socialize. The children’s play area in the back was a wonderful plus! The master bedroom is a suite unto itself, with. Its own sitting area as well as a huge bathroom with a whirlpool tub and shower. The kitchen was well supplied with both dishware and cookware, making the production and consumption of a holiday meal an easy process.

Great family gathering space
We had multiple family members in town for a wedding in Avila, and this was the perfect place for them to gather and relax. The home and gardens are lovely. Cathy was accommodating and responsive.

As always this was an amazing vacation spot for us to enjoy exploring with our grandkids. We had 2-12 yr olds, 2-8 year olds and our daughter with us. The house is perfect for kids - great backyard with games and space for exploring! As our one grandson said, “This is the perfect place for vacation. It’s close to EVERYTHING!- the beach, the Farm and a trip to Hearst Castle/elephant seals.” They love it here! Cathy is also the best hostess!

Summer Getaway
The property was beautiful and exactly what we expected based on the pictures and description. The outdoor space was the main reason we booked this property, and it did not disappoint! There was plenty of space in the backyard to hangout, and different lawn games, like badminton and cornhole, were set up to play. The house was spacious and was equipped with everything we needed for our stay. A few minor points to note: the water filters in the kitchen needed to be replaced, some of the dishes in the cabinets were slightly dirty and some areas of the house had a musty smell when the windows weren't open. All-in-all, we would be happy to stay here again!
