About this property

Century Old Farmhouse at the Flying Caballos Ranch

Once owned by the Madonna family, this turn of the century farmhouse and 100 acre ranch combines old world artistry with modern amenities. The Flying Caballos Ranch is located in the rolling hills of Edna Valley, minutes from wine country and downtown San Luis Obispo.

The historic 5-bedroom, 2-bathroom farmhouse can accommodate 10 guests (2 queen beds and 3 double beds). There are two bedrooms and one bathroom located downstairs and three bedrooms and one bathroom located upstairs. Each bedroom is unique and has been decorated with the utmost attention to detail. The farmhouse features a full kitchen, two separate dining areas, and a cozy living room equipped with TV, sound system, and wifi.

The expansive grounds surrounding the farmhouse offer breathtaking views of Islay Hill and Edna Valley. The backyard features two outdoor restrooms and showers, a large wood bbq, fire pit with lounge chairs, an elevated Redwood hot tub, and antique bistro lighting.

The Flying Caballos Ranch is the perfect place for a getaway with friends & family and also serves as an incredible spot to host your private celebration such as a family reunion, graduation party, corporate retreat, or wedding. Please inquire about rates for hosting a private celebration during your stay, which are booked and facilitated by our onsite Property Manager.

HISTORY:
The Flying Caballos Ranch was originally owned by the Alfred Madonna family in the early 1900's and encompassed several hundred acres, operating as a dairy farm. The Madonna's grew their own vegetables, vineyard, and orchard. They hunted deer and fished for salmon, all on the ranch. Currently, the ranch consists of approximately 100 acres with horse and cattle grazing, a year-round creek, and unobstructed views of Edna Valley and Islay Hill.

Peaceful and rustic
Was a joy to stay in the farmhouse. Rustic charm, dramatic views of the rolling hills, highly recommend! The highlight was hopping between the roaring fire pit and the cedar wood hot tub.

Fantastic Farm House w/Gorgeous scenery
We rented the farmhouse to celebrate my mothers 80th birthday. Three generations enjoyed this rustic, well-stocked, comfortable and lovely farmhouse. The surrounding hills and greenery, fire pit, walks. It’s a fantastic place for a family gathering. We hope to come back and rent the whole property for a celebration with more of our friends.

So Charming!
This property is so charming! The farmhouse is the perfect combo of 1905 nostalgia and modern convenience. We were quite comfortable with 7 adults and one dog :) The location is amazing!! out of the hustle & bustle of summer tourism, but super convenient to SLO, Pismo, Avila, Morrow Bay, etc. Pismo Beach put on an awesome fireworks show for the 4th! We had a super fun stay!!
