Photos and Description of the San Luis Obispo vacation house rental
2 bedroom, 2 bathrooms, Sleeps 2-4, Will block off 2nd bedroom for 1-2 people

Enjoy San Luis Obispo from our 1920's Spanish bungalow home with mezmerizingly wonderful views. Our simple 1500 square foot home sits on acreage adjacent to open space and is only a short walk to downtown, railroad station and farmers markets.

We find that the best fit for our rental is guests that want to experience what it is like to live in San Luis Obispo rather than someone that is looking for a 5 star hotel experience.

We look for guests that respect other peoples property and belongings as if they were their own. Fortunately that has always been the case with our house in SLO.

Except for our challenging short but steep driveway, SLO is a bicycle friendly community.

$225 per night for 1-2 people using one bedroom.. $300/night for 2-4 persons and 2 bedrooms. Two night minimum. $100 registration/cleaning fee per reservation.

We ask that you feed our OUTSIDE feral cat. Cat food provided.

Full kitchen from spices to Italian dishware.

Since this has been our primary home for over 20 years, you will appreciate our collection of 40 original works of art by local San Luis Obispo artists. Well framed oils, acrylics, watercolors, prints and photographs are part of your experience in SLO. When you rent the house you will have the house to yourselves.

Enjoy San Luis Obispo County: Check-in Time is after 3pm and check-out time is before 11am unless prior arrangements are made.

.Avila Beach is just 10 miles by bicycle via bike lanes and the Bob Jones Trail. Nearby attractions include Hearst Castle, Cambria, Big Sur Coastline, Morro Bay, Montana de Oro, Paso Robles, and San Luis Obispo area wine tasting. Enjoy shopping, dinning and San Luis Obispo's Thursday Night Farmer's Market.

WHY COME TO SAN LUIS OBISPO???

Founded in 1772 as a mission community, San Luis Obispo is one of the oldest towns in California. Nicknamed “SLO,” it’s located halfway between San Francisco and Los Angeles and has a thriving downtown. Mission San Luis Obispo de Tolosa is its centerpiece. It was the original mission of the city, and has been completely restored and now houses a museum. Near the mission, you can wander through posh boutique shops and dine at upscale restaurants.

San Luis Obispo is almost perpetually sunny, with more than 300 rain-free days every year. The city is bisected by a string of hills known as the Nine Sisters, and six of these are open for climbing, hiking, and mountain biking. And with the Pacific coastline and beaches 10 miles away, people flock here to go windsurfing, kayaking, surfing, and kiteboarding. Also nearby is the resort town of Avila Beach, famous for its hot mineral springs.

San Luis Obispo made international headlines in 1990 when it became the first place in the world to ban smoking in all public buildings, including bars and restaurants. This action sparked worldwide antismoking laws, and today, it’s a citable offense to smoke in public at all in SLO. Shoppers must bring their own shoping bags since plastic bags were banned in 2012. Considering the city’s famously strict health codes, it’s a delightful surprise that Bubble Gum Alley exists here. Locals and visitors have been sticking their chewed gum on Bubble Gum Alley’s walls since about 1960, and in turn, the alley is now a massive, mosaic-like public artwork that is at once beautiful and grotesque.

Air Transportation: Scheduled air service, United Express, Delta, and US Air is 5 miles away at the San Luis Obispo County Airport.

Warning: Do not stay at this house if you are scouting the area for retirement potential. That was our mission during our visit, and John's and Kay's house set too high of a standard! There were absolutely no disappointments in our five night stay except that we couldn't stay longer. The house was perfectly equipped and very comfortable. We felt the art and family photos created a very warm environment. The house provides access and views to the outside from every room. The views are amazing, and the yard and deck provide many places to sit and take advantage of it in absolute privacy. The hot tub was heavenly. The VRBO write up didn't mention the 130 acres of open space right outside the door. We took the car out just twice during our visit. For walkers, it was an easy jaunt to stores, restaurants, and shopping. And we spent hours roaming the trails in the amazing open space of San Luis Obispo. Views, wild flowers, and friendly outdoor enthusiasts abound. We enjoyed cooking in and took advantage of the BBQ. The kitchen had all the pots, pans, and gadgets we needed. We ate dinner out one night and would highly recommend Big Sky! Oh, and stop by the House of Breads for cinnamon rolls. Thanks, John and Kay, for sharing your home. We will be back, and we will highly recommend your home to our traveler friends.

Owner's Response: Thank you. Our house is not a 5 star resort but we think it is a great place to get the feel of what it is like to live in San Luis Obispo. We are so glad that it was a suitable for your visit here. SLO is a town of good people that enjoy the outdoors and you fit in perfectly. Please visit us again.

This eclectic little house is perfect for a stress free get away. We went with our good friends and hardly went inside the house. This view a spectacular and mesmerizing. The house was literally 5 mins from downtown and there is a hiking path right down the street from the property. We went on a beautiful hike and ran up the steep driveway to finish off a great workout. Later we sat in the hot tub and enjoyed each others company. It truly was a perfect weekend. I want to go back soon.

We are parents, with two adult children. For a week, we shared the house with our daughter and her husband. This is a beautiful, convenient location which offered us everything we wanted. Our extended family gathered here many times and felt at home. Our parties were elegant and the amenities were just what we needed. We cooked, entertained and relaxed. Could not have been better. We entertained from 12 to 30 at our various brunches and suppers. Very nice place to be, Several guests asked for the "tour" as they make plans for their own future events in SLO. You will see us and our relatives and friends again and again. Thanks for our new SLO home away from home.

Terrific View

We were so pleased with this house and its terrific views that we didin't see nearly as much of the SLO area as we had planned! The house is charming and comfortable and filled with art and objects to entertain the eye. All the necessities needed for an extended stay are provided. And that wonderful deck and view! Sometimes a P & J sandwich was better than leaving and driving to dinner, although the owners provide many fine recommendations for restaurants and wine-tasting. We will happily return and hope to find Kitty waiting at the kitchen door.
