As always we adore this sweet home by the bay. It is pure comfort and perfection. Close to walk the Elfin Forest and close to the sweetest little town. Thank you for always being our go to when in SLO.
Love staying at this little treasure in the heart of Los Osos. The view is the best and the access to the sweetest lil' hike at the Elfin Forest makes is a delight. Can't wait to return!
We enjoyed walking to the business district about 1.5 miles away. There was also a beautiful Elfin forest trail to the inlet with nice views about 500 feet from the property. We were within short drive distance from Morro Bay too. The home was well furnished with lots of space for visiting. I would highly recommend this home if you want a Central Coast vacation. Shout out to a nearby hamburger joint called Sylvester’s. Great burgers!
Plenty of space, cozy, great landscaping and garden in the yard, pretty walk into the Elfin Forest just steps away. Love the roof deck. Lots of great places to see just a short distance away.
Greatly enjoyed our stay in Los Osos part of winter break from MN. Beautiful peaceful neighborhood and property was even better than pictures. Great hiking, shopping, and restaraunts nearby including town of Morro Bay. Would definitely rent this property again.
We absolutely loved our stay at this location. The house was well- stocked and in a wonderful location. We enjoyed drinking coffee on the deck, looking out over the estuary. It was only 10 minutes to Morro Bay and 10 minutes to Montana de Oro. The rooms were very comfortable.
Great house, cozy, clean and comfortable. Well stocked with essentials. We had a great time here. It’s an excellent central location, close to all the hot spots, and nice to come back to a quiet, peaceful neighborhood with great views. My family of 5 had a great time, and our young children enjoyed it too. There’s restaurants and coffee shops nearby and Morro Bay is just a quick 10 minute drive away. Would stay here again. It was great to get away from the summer heat too.
A great location for our central coast getaway! Lots of room to spread out and had everything we needed. Great food in the quaint downtown, easy drive to San Luis Obispo, Morro Bay and Montana De Oro for hiking and daytrips. The rooftop desk had amazing views and we enjoyed the nightly sunset view.
The house was more spacious and comfortable than the pictures made us expect, and everything one might hope for was provided. The kitchen was especially well equipped. Everything was sparkling clean.
The location right next to the Elfin Forest and close to several gorgeous beaches and numerous hiking trails couldn't have been more perfect.
We hope to come back one day.
We enjoyed our stay immensely! This past year we had some health issues which limited our usual 'moderate' hiking and being adjacent to the boardwalk Elfin Forest was perfect for us. The home had a lot of space to find comfortable spots together or on our own for reading, etc. We hope to revisit this home again! Thanks.
Although this property is a little older it is well maintained, somewhat updated, comfy, clean and much larger than expected. Never felt crammed or squished. The Elfin Forest area nearby is a beautiful, nice little area for walking and taking in the natural beauty of the bay. Short drive to Morro Bay embarcadero and not too far from Cambria and Hearst Castle.
