About this property

HISTORIC FARMHOUSE ON 400 ACRE RANCH

Come experience something unique and magical in our turn-of-the-century remodeled farm house. This rustic home is nestled within a 400 acre secluded ranch located just over the mountain from the City of San Luis Obispo.

Allow yourself to travel back in time while you enjoy this 2 bedroom 1 bath 1000 square foot home that comfortably sleeps 4 guests in its king and queen sized beds. The newly remodeled kitchen with its granite counter-tops and modern appliances is fully equipped to prepare delicious meals. The flagstone patio with its propane grill and wood-burning Santa Maria style bbq makes a wonderful setting for enjoying a traditional Central Coast home-cooked tri-tip steak with all the fixings. Guests can relax on the patio or wrap-around porch, sip local wines and beers while watching hawks and vultures circling overhead, deer grazing on the nearby hillsides and wild turkeys foraging in the adjacent fields. Savor the fresh country air and revel in the sound of silence.

Guests are invited to bring their hiking boots, binoculars and perhaps mountain bikes. The ranch is almost wholly surrounded by Cal Poly State University property with its extensive network of trails where one can literally explore for miles.

Whether you are visiting the Central Coast to sample its world-famous wines and restaurants, to explore its pristine coastline, or simply to relax and unwind, you'll be glad that you decided to make this rustic home your headquarters. It is truly a hidden jewel.

Excellent Historic Home
Once checked in we didn’t want to leave. We had a wedding weekend to attend which was wonderful but would have loved to spend more time at the home! It was perfect to relax and watch the wildlife from the porch!

Simply Amazing
This has to be one of the most amazing VRBO properties we have stayed in. The house is so comfortable, warm and inviting that we felt at home right away. The private location, beautiful views and complete peace and quiet was just what we were looking for. Waking up to see deer and wild turkeys outside the house was really a treat. It was so great to stay in a place that was so isolated and peaceful but just a short drive from all San Luis Obispo and the Central Coast has to offer. This was truly a unique experience we hope to enjoy again one day.

Fantastic Stay!
This property is exactly as they advertise. If you want a quiet, secluded stay that’s close to SLO, this is your spot. Wide open country surrounds you and the house is big enough for a family. We cooked out and had a very peaceful stay with family. For being the middle of July, it cooled down nicely in the evening and if you open the windows and turn the fans on you’ll never miss your air conditioner. We would 10 out of 10 recommend this VRBO.

Bucolic setting
So enjoyed our stay at the farmhouse! Clean, comfortable and beautiful surroundings. We were met with turkeys right outside the house every morning. Saw deer on the hills at sunset. We even used the outdoor grill to barbecue steaks from the Cal Poly Meat Market down the road! Usually grills at rentals are far from clean! Chuck was very responsive and helpful with tips for our stay. Thank you!

This was our 3rd time at this peaceful farmhouse with dogs - very relaxing and I'm sure we'll be back. WiFi is via satellite so a wee bit slow but you won't want to work there anyway.

Beautiful location
Stayed here with my husband and our two dogs. The property was beautiful. House was comfortable. Kitchen was updated and spacious. Saw deer roaming around the house everyday. The dogs enjoyed going for walks around the house and going to the creek that was close by. Would recommend if your looking for a private place to relax.

A little piece of heaven
I hesitate to write this review because I don’t want everyone knowing about this place so it is available when we want to go back. Ha! We stayed here when we moved our daughter in to Cal Poly. It is so peaceful and quiet. What a refuge!! The beds were super comfortable and the outdoor area was great. We enjoyed the passing cows and did t want to leave. We hope to return soon! Thank you!

Loved our time in the little red house. Perfect for three of us - couple and adult daughter - plus our dogs. Very close to SLO yet out in the wilderness. Deer, turkeys, coyotes (heard not seen), and an abundance of squirrels! Hope to return here.

Lovely location. Just needs cleaning. Doors. Baseboards. Dirty. Put ant traps. Windows need to be cleaned. Beautiful location. Peaceful. Vacuum needs to be emptied. New bag please. I left it cleaner than it was. Needs to say no air conditioner. Was over 90 inside when we arrived.
