About this house rental
Based at the entrance of See Canyon, overlooking Avila Valley and only 2 miles to Avila Beach. This wonderful home offers privacy, incredible views and peaceful nature vibes. The location is one of the best in the county, with a unique microclimate that folds the fresh ocean air into the warm valley heat. Nestled near Pismo beach, Morro Bay, San Luis Obispo and Edna Valley, it's just a short drive to wine tasting, kayaking or exploring farmers market. The house was built in the 1950's and has been updated respectively to preserve it's character. It offers three bedrooms and three bathroom. One of the bedrooms/bathrooms is located in a detached unit 20 steps from the main house, we've dubbed "The Tree House" bedroom. All bedrooms are connected to a bathroom for additional privacy. The house offers a very nice outdoor seating area and a barbecue for outdoor cooking. Sleeps 6 comfortably, up to 8 with children.

This property was just about perfect for us. The three bedrooms were very separate and each had a bathroom. Living room was spacious although we spent most of the time on the patio around the fire pit or overlooking the valley below us. The kitchen was compact but had what we needed for our group. Owners were helpful at check-in and very responsive with any questions during our stay. Great place that we will return to in the future.

Cozy, nicely furnished home in an excellent location. Close to the beach and close to beautiful San Luis Obispo, a super cute walking town with great restaurants. Best of all, the house has awesome views from pretty much everywhere! We had wonderful times by the fire pit, though we ran out of gas the last night. And our bed had the best mattress. Totally recommend this great home. Few minor things could be improved, like hooks to hand towels in the bathroom, a thorough cleaning in the kitchen, but the overall experience was just great!

We spent 10 nights at the Avila Valley house, during which we were joined by our daughter, son-in-law and teenage grandson for 5 nights. The sleeping space with the separate studio was perfect for our needs. The location of the property is perfect, being close to the beach and15 minutes from shopping and dining in SLO. We also loved walking the Bob Jones trail just down the hill, followed by lunch at the market.
The view from the patio is breathtaking, so much so that it was wonderful just spending time at the house. The house itself was clean and nicely furnished, and beds were comfortable. The kitchen, while well equipped, was a bit small for a longer stay. Overall, a very enjoyable stay.

2nd year booking this house for our annual sister's retreat. Love the location and the set-up of the house. Allows for great privacy and every bedroom has it's own bathroom! Love the kitty that visits mornings and evenings, the fire pit and the BBQ. Highly recommend!

We loved our stay. The house is definitely a little rustic but that adds to the character. Lauren was awesome and very helpful throughout our stay.

Our host was great and very helpful. We were driving a long distance and were permitted to enter a little early which was fantastic.

We have been coming to the Central coast for a large gathering every summer for years & usually get a VRBO for our stay. This one was the best of the lot…a beautiful place inside & out, better than the pics! We also enjoyed the outdoor companion kitty that showed up every time we came back. We’ll be back next year.
Two suggestions: a lighter weight blanket for summer…(the comforter was too warm) also more coffee mugs.
Thanks for a great visit!

We stayed in Avila to attend the Good Vibes concert....The location of this house was perfect so close and easy access to town and beach. The house was so comfortable as well as well planned out. The detached bedroom was really great and perfect for my friends!
I highly recommend it!

The reason for our stay was to attend a family wedding and related events over a July weekend. The Avila House was perfect for 6 adults and located close to the wedding venue (Chateau Noland), Avila Beach and downtown. Property was as advertised…and more! The only downside was the hot tub had been emptied - sadly but understandably due to liability. Check-in/Check-out process was easy and Lauren was
readily available for any questions/concerns. THANK YOU for sharing this wonderful home/beautiful location! We’d happily re-book for any future stays in the SLO area!

Wonderful annual Sisters visit. Lovely grounds and well laid out house providing beautiful gathering spots and private space to retreat to. Friendly kitty kept us company and we had a bobcat visit the first night. Property Manager was quick to respond to any questions and lovely to deal with. Highly recommend!

We had a small wedding party and loved the accommodations here. It had the perfect amount of rooms for us but also was a perfect size for us to be able to hang out with our other friends while in the area. Easy drive to Avilla or Downtown!

Loved the house and the location. Very nice patio area with a great view. Only suggestions are to get new cushions for the outdoor furniture (they’re flat and uncomfortable) and the kitchen didn’t have any dish towels. Will come again!

This is by far our favorite place we have stayed at in Avila. It is so relaxing and peaceful. The home is surrounded by nature and you feel far from the hustle of the city yet it’s a quick drive to the beach. The home has everything you need. It was clean and the beds were very comfy. The tree house room was perfect for my son and his girlfriend. The host was very attentive and would reply quickly. We look forward to staying again soon!

The pictures do not do this property justice. We came for a weekend away with friends and to visit our daughter at Cal Poly. Was a short 10 minute drive to the campus but felt like we were really in the country. Enjoyed the wonderful views from the patio of the rolling hills and vineyards. We will be back!

This is a very cool rustic house in a secluded area that overlooks a vineyard. Great location for exploring the area.

this is a lovely place to use as a base for exploring the area or just to stay put and enjoy the glorious scenery. We had a short PG & E power outage soon after we arrived and the manager and owner were wonderfully communicative and power was restored very soon - wonderful property!

Cal Poly Friends Reunion
What a perfectly stunning location to host our biannual reunion! We wanted to be near Cal Poly, but also the beach. This was ideal. Very private, quiet, and gorgeous views. We honestly spent most of our time on the patio! Great communication with property manager, and help came in a jiffy when we needed it. Will definitely stay again. Only criticism was that we had to take the trash can out, which was all the way down the hill. A bit dangerous for women over 50, lol. Overall fantastic. Thanks for a wonderful time.

Lovely House in a Fantastic Setting!
My family came to SLO for graduation and booked this house. We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived; the photos do not do the property justice! The deck and patio are beautiful and perfect for sitting and sipping wine, enjoying the view. There is a nice breeze so it doesn't get hot like San Luis Obispo, but the hills block the fog from the beach!

Avila Beach adult getaway
A great property for adults. Near Avila Beach but quiet and private. Very responsive management. No games or puzzles. No beach equipment. Not for kids. Great sitting area outside with a view of the valley. Some repairs required. Ceiling fan in master bedroom did not work and windows could not be opened. Made the room stuffy. Kitchen well equipped but refrigerator ice and water dispenser inoperative. Great quality decoration and furniture. Tree house very nice and private. Beautiful view of the valley and awesome night sky on a clear night. Great bedroom ceiling fan. Two friendly cats visited throughout our stay. . Perfect for a party of two or three couples to explore area. I would return.

Lovely for our family
Absolutely lovely view and seating area. Perfect for a relaxing family trip including two toddlers, parents and grandparents. The location is perfect - feels remote but only a 2 minute drive to shops. And the house itself was lovely too.

Better Than Expected
This was such a charming, peaceful, perfectly situated location/home. It was updated, clean, and the photos did not do it justice. The beds were comfortable, yard and plants were beautiful. We loved the two visiting kitties, but not so much the amount of spiders that seem to also love it.
Overall, it was such a pleasurable place to stay. I would recommend this to others.

Serene and relaxing stay in the hills
Beautiful view and great outdoor seating area. The house is cozy, rooms are spacious and did I mention the view. If you are looking for a place to relax and kick back, this is it. I love that each room has its own bathroom, the beds were super comfy, and we loved sitting around the fire pit outside. As mentioned in other reviews, the kitchen gets tight with multiple people in it, the only downside. It’s close to the beach, close to the freeways, and we would absolutely stay here again!

Perfect Getaway
Amazing time in Avila Valley. This property is very conveniently located just a short drive to the beach, golf, and great hiking/ walking trails. The house is set atop a hill with an incredible view of the valley and morning sunrises and sunsets. The living room was perfect for hanging out all together with plenty of comfy seating for all. The kitchen was fully stocked and the bedrooms were very accommodating. We loved the little casita off of the main house with an adorable wrap around porch. It was a perfect spot for our weekend getaway with friends and an infant & we look forward to our next trip! Thank you!

Beautiful view, great house!
My family spent a week at the Avila Beach house. The house is conveniently located between SLO and Avila Beach with easy access to Shell Beach and Pismo. The view from the property is absolutely gorgeous! The house was nice and well appointed and the owner was helpful and available to us if we had questions. We look forward to coming back.

Beautiful
This house and its location is beautiful. The house is older, unique, quiet and very comfortable. The view across the valley is one of the main draws. And it's a 25-minute rural walk from the beach in Avila. The kitchen is small and cramped, but works fine--we cooked for Thanksgiving in it. The large round table in the dining room was a real bonus. We never used the TVs or bluetooth for music, and instead just enjoyed the quiet or played games. Avila Beach itself remains one of the best beach towns in California. This is a large, wooded property on a hillside that takes a lot of care and attention to keep up, and the owners have done well in keeping it maintained. Plus some of the best Fuji's around are just up the street in See Canyon.

Stunning house for family trip
The house was perfect for our family trip. The main house has two bedrooms with their own bathrooms. One additional bedroom with its own bathroom is detached from the main house with a beautiful view. The kitchen is well stocked and sufficient for our needs. But it is more on the smaller side. The outdoor areas are great with good mix of sun exposed and shaded areas. The beach and other activities can be easily reached. The pictures do not fully capture the beauty of the house. The communication with the host was easy and he is very responsive. We would definitely come back.
