Photos and Description of the San Luis Obispo vacation cottage rental
Cottage, 1 Bedroom, 1 Bath, (Sleeps 2)

**Please check calendar for available dates. I keep it updated with each booking. Thanks!

The Chapek House is tucked behind the main house surrounded by foliage providing a retreat from the hustle and bustle of our crazy lives. Meander down to our renowned Thursday Night Farmers' Market, historic downtown, shopping or a night on the town. No car necessary unless you want to explore outside of town. Ten restaurants and delicatessens within two blocks and many more with a quick walk to town.

Surrounded by almost 200 wineries; eight miles to Avila Beach and mineral hot springs; twelve miles to Pismo Beach, Morro Bay, and Montana de Oro State Park, there are endless places to visit. Drive North up our beautiful Coastal Highway One 45 minutes to the Hearst Castle and our elephant seal refuge; another hour to breathtaking Big Sur. One and a half hours South to Santa Barbara. Great golf courses nearby and trails and hikes galore!

Planned as a romatic get away, it's a little fluffy but men have said it's just fine! Cook or don't cook. Sleep in or get up and out to enjoy the beautiful San Luis countryside. Whatever your choice, you will do it in comfort in this sweet little niche. Totally remodeled, it boasts a comfy bed, clawfoot tub for pampering and French doors opening onto the balcony where you can snuggle on the loveseat overlooking the flowering yard smelling the jasmine and lavender. The small private entry yard has a paved area with a bistro table for two, birdbath and plants flowering at different times.

Plan a surprise get away! The owner will have any special requests waiting: a prepared meal, wine, flowers, balloons...let your imagination be your guide! Just let me know.

Thanks and hope to see you soon!

My husband and I spent a wonderful three nights at the cottage celebrating our 20th. Absolutely incredible. cute and close to town. We loved Sally Loo's for coffee and breakfast. The cottage is a private retreat with everything we needed.

Exactly as Advertised

Stayed at Chapek Cottage for a week and had a great time. Quiet, comfortable and cute. Clean and well-maintained inside and out. An easy 10-15 minute walk to downtown. Less than a 10 minute ride to the airport and you can practically see the Amtrak station from the property. Plenty of on-street parking and public transit is less than two blocks away. Kitchen and bath were not as well equipped as other VRBO's we've visited, but certainly adequate. Ditto for the TV -- HD would be nice. A shorter rulebook than other properties, which was refreshing. Not a lot of "special instructions." Owner very responsive when setting the reservation and arranging payment. Would gladly return.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this darling cottage! It was very homey, well-stocked, and CLEAN. The garden and grounds were well-kept and inviting- a perfect place to lounge and read in the sun. Downtown is close enough to walk for some shopping and sightseeing. A huge thank you to the owner for being so accommodating and efficient. We would definitely visit again!

Lovely in every way!

Pictures can be deceptive, but not for Chapek Hpuse. An arbor gate entrance lead down the path to a sweet cottage located in a quiet neighborhood that was within walking distance to town. Everything one needs was there, lovely bedroom, comfortable living room, kitchen and dining area, although we didn't eat at home much as there are so many fabulous restaurants, reasonably price in SLO.
My only disappointment was the outdoor area. Gloria offered more comfortable chairs from her house, but the area was quite small and not much sunshine. Had hoped to relax outdoors and read, but as we spent so much time in local exploring, it didn't prove to be much of an issue.
We would definitely recommend this rental to anyone who is going to SLO, and we HIGHLY recommend the great town of SLO to all we talk to!
Thanks Gloria for providing such a wonderful place to enjoy our visit to California.

Great Vacation w/o a CAR

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Jan 30, 2012
  • Stayed: Dec 2011
We wanted a car-less vacation and the Chapek House fit the bill perfectly, given its amazingly close proximity to the train station (yet still quiet!), and walking distance to the center of downtown. We were easily able to rent bikes in the area and had Enterprise Rentals drop off a car for the one day we wanted to head north on a drive to Big Sur/Carmel along the coast.

The house had everything we needed to cook/eat in, but yet well located to a number of very good restaurants. The gardens surrounding the house were very peaceful and we loved the french doors that opened onto the deck, even though we were there in December. We will definitely consider returning in the future.
