Pet friendly duplex apartment in downtown Santa Ynez!

Truly a unique getaway experience while staying in what is known as “A Sophisticated Cowboy Town” Santa Ynez. Here you will find the main street resembles an old movie set. Dotted with some of the valley’s best restaurants, charming shops, art, and a museum, you will have plenty to savor from your cozy hideout.

Breath in and relax as you enjoy this 2 bedroom, 1 bath home, with a lovely living space, fully equipped kitchen, and enclosed backyard that has outdoor seating and a BBQ. You can almost see the stagecoach passing under the mature oak trees that are nearby.

Steps Away Cottage has been fully renovated with newer flooring, fixtures, and amenities. Central Heat and A/C
Host pays the 12% TOT Tax, Not the guest!

Park the car and stay awhile while enjoying a walk to morning coffee and a stroll back, meandering through shops and country lanes. You could spend the entire time at your leisure as you experience the refuge of your stay. However, if you so desire, you are only moments away from all the wineries, European moments of Solvang, and wide-open spaces of the Santa Ynez Valley.

*Pet friendly! Pet fee-Per-pet

We do add a $25 per-pet-per night fee

We ask the following regarding pets:

- Dog must be crated when not with you

- Dog are not allowed on the furniture

- Please bag any dog waste and dispose of by placing in outdoor waste receptacle

- Please know that you are in the country with wildlife; don't leave your dog outside, unattended. Also, watch small dogs (hawks and owls see them as food). Finally, don’t leave the door open for your dog. If you do, you might find that a rodent has joined you inside the home.

The house was perfect, roomy and clean. We had planned on bringing our two dogs and it a good thing we didn’t because they are not allowed in the furniture. Everything was perfect and I will stay again next time I am in the area.

Perfect Anniversary Getaway
This property could not have been in a better location! We have always wanted to see what Los Olivos has to offer and we were not disappointed. We were able to take our time and walk to breakfast, wineries and dinner. Quick and easy access to the casino as well. It was a lovely trip, and I would definitely stay here again!

A Lovely Little Getaway....
This property was immaculate, beautifully appointed, and had everything we needed. It was a perfect relaxing place with a large backyard, complete with patio table and umbrella, just perfect for bird and lizard watching. Great jumping off place for Solvang, Buellton, and San Ynez. The weather was just gorgeous too! We'll be back!

Great house in a perfect location!
Such a great location. House is very clean and was perfect for my friend and me on our golf trip. Might be a little tight for anything more than 4 people with the 1 bathroom. But I would definitely recommend this rental, as I also personally plan on staying here again.

Best Anniversary Weekend
We came out here for our 5 year wedding anniversary. This cottage lives up to it's name - "Steps Away Cottage". You literally take a few steps and you are in town. You are walking distance to most everything and just a short drive to Buellton, Los Olivos and surrounding. The cottage is so clean and had a really open layout. It had everything we needed to cook and even do laundry if needed. We loved everything about it. Information about the rental and recommendations were laid out and were so clear. The host, Pam, was the best at communication and she was quick to respond with any questions I had. Our last night there, we were going to pull into the driveway and it seems the neighbors had parked there thinking we had already checked out. Wasn't a big deal at all as we just parked in front. I did text Pam to let her know and they moved their truck promptly. Wasn't necessary as we didn't move our car until the next morning to load up. It was a wonderful stay and have already recommended it to a few friends. Would love to stay there again in the future. Thanks again for a lovely stay. Happy Holidays! Sincerely, The Ryan Family
