My mother, husband and I were looking for somewhere to escape the extreme heat of August in our home town -- and boy did we choose the right location! Cayucos was a temperate 65-78 all month long! Many mornings rolled out a cool marine layer -- great for long walks on the beach -- which morphed into sunny breezy afternoons. Lori's house is half a block from the beach, and I'm a walker, so many a morning I hiked along the beach from Cayucos to Morro Bay, passing an amazing bird preserve and with the mysterious Morro Rock beckoning me on. The house was perfect and charming and clean and well stocked. Two small bedrooms and a bathroom in the back, and an open kitchen/dining and living area, very comfortable and inviting, in the front. A spacious side yard with patio furniture enlarges the space considerably and is very pleasant for an afternoon read. Really fun beach and ocean decor abounds in this house and yard, running the gamut from funky to kitchy to downright beautiful. Lori definitely has a collector's eye and a curator's ability to find the exact right spot for her art and objects. We had a blast exploring the environs. We visited Hearst Castle, Cambria, Harmony Creamery for ice cream and art, Morro Bay, San Luis Obispo, Los Osos and more. We did not have the good fortune to meet Lori, but she was a very attentive host nevertheless.Lori made herself very available for any little request or need, and she never made me feel like the least bit of bother. I truly believed her when she said she wanted our stay to be perfect. And it was.

This house was perfect for me and my husband and our dog. This house was perfect for the 3 of us. It’s cozy and has everything you would need to enjoy your time away from home. We really enjoyed our time here and would recommend this house to anyone wanting to get away from it all .
