The exceptional 8-acre mountain top property (halfway between SF and LA) has two bedrooms, chef’s kitchen and a large, elegantly appointed bathroom. Indoor areas transition seamlessly into outdoor living and dining spaces through French doors and large windows. The large 500 square foot private deck provides a comfortable place to read, relax or dine (BBQ equipped) while taking in the commanding views. There is a ramp outside and one step inside making it good for disabled people.
Appointed with premium fixtures, furniture, amenities and high-speed Wi-Fi throughout. Complimentary onsite electric car (Tesla, etc) charging station. Fully equipped kitchen. This dedicated vacation rental is professionally cleaned (fresh linens, towels, etc.) and a hotel quality experience awaits your arrival. Accommodates up to six guests, with four being ideal.
The grounds feature complimentary fresh eggs from the chicken coop and seasonal vegetables from our raised beds, gardens, koi pond, "Walter's" tortoise habitat and an incredible vista of wildlife, particularly birds and raptors who are at eye level.
We are on the famous Pacific Coast Highway (Hwy. 1). The coastal retreat halfway between LA and SF. Our road (Prefumo Canyon) turns into See Canyon and leads to Avila Beach. There is a short 15 minute scenic drive to downtown SLO (Thursday Night Farmer’s Market, restaurants, nightlife etc.) and beautiful Avila Beach (spectacular beach, pier, shops, wineries, etc). Famous Avila and Sycamore Mineral Springs offer a therapeutic experience in a group setting or privately in secluded tubs set amongst the tree-canopied hillside. You are in a serene and peaceful setting, but not too far from all the action!
Vista House is hard to leave once you arrive, with wonderful hikes, incredible natural surroundings and bountiful wildlife. Stock up at the Whole Foods, Sprouts or Costco at the bottom of the hill and settle in for a memorable experience!

Summary: My husband and I enjoyed the views from Vista House. We had fun chatting with Ryan, the host. While we rated this stay a 5, there are some things that would have made our stay better. Primarily, we found the couch and kitchen seating to be tired and uncomfortable. Also, the stove and range are so-so. If you like dogs, Cider and Bourbon are quite friendly. The views are outstanding.
