Clean, cute, perfect for our stay

Clean, comfortable, very well maintained cottage. Lots of thoughtful details. Easy drives to Pismo Beach, Lopez Lake, and SLO. Really nice outdoor space that I wish we had more time to use. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again. Please support mom and pop rentals like this. Owner/manager is on site and very responsive to questions/small details.

Perfect getaway for a weekend away

This place is so cute with a very nice backyard. We were there to relax over the weekend, but it worked out very well too to work from since the WIFI was strong for online meetings. The bed is very comfortable and kitchen well stacked with equipment. Also a plus to be able to walk to some very nice restaurants, we enjoyed Ember in particular. The hosts are superfriendly and response very fast to messages. We will come back

Oasis with garden charm

Perfect little oasis with garden charm. The hot tub was a perfect place to relax and chat with family. Sat around the fire pit with music, story telling and laughter. Gracious hosts that tend to every need. Our stay couldn’t have been any better. Thanks

Central coast gem

Overall excellent. Backyard is peaceful and private. Close proximity to AG and Grover Beach. Lots of amenities including a grill, hot tub, full kitchen, fireplaces. Guests should be aware that there is only one real bedroom. Other beds are couch conversions located in the entryway (which has a door and is private) and other Is in the main living room, so not very private.

Super cute place close to the beach

This place is super cute. We loved the decor and it was very welcoming. The host left a bottle of wine and plenty of bottled waters in the fridge which was a really nice touch. It’s close to the beach and where you can ride Atvs or take your car to the beach if you have the right set up

Cozy, clean bungalow with a nice hot tub

We really enjoyed our stay in Pismo Beach, it was very relaxing to read in the courtyard and relax in the hot tub at night. We got to see a meteor shower from the hot tub, which was an experience. The hosts were great, and the property was well kept up, clean, and organized. All in all, we'd stay there again.

The most ideal private retreat spot ever

This was my second stay at Tammy and John's charming VRBO. As an introvert/creative with an overly active brain, I've arrived each time with one goal in mind: to relax, unpack and spread out all my ideas/papers/books/articles that I've been saving. Since work life doesn't leave me with ample energy to create and restore, I come HERE for 4-5 days each year.Tammy and John have created a private, welcoming, comfortable home with lovely touches. They are thoughtful hosts who stay invisible but super responsive. Highly highyly recommend this spot.

Wonderful stay in a great location

My family and I stayed here for three nights over thanksgiving. The property is very very clean and has a well stocked kitchen. The neighborhood is quiet and conveniently located - close to beach and grocery stores. Highly recommend the property if you are taking a trip to the central coast.

One of the very best vacation homes ever!!

This amazing home exceeded our already high expectations based on the listing. It is so well cared for, laid out and equipped. The beds were all comfortable and included a queen bed in the master bedroom, a double bed in the front bedroom, and a double/queen sofa bed in the living room. Loved the bathroom - the hot water and the water pressure of the waterfall shower head were awesome. The kitchen was equipped with anything we might need including steak knives for the evening we grilled steaks on the Traeger, available in the backyard. The backyard was incredible! Beautifully arranged with trees and plants, there’s a hot tub, a hammock which the teens loved, comfortable furniture, dining table and two(!) fire pits - one for bonfires and one for gas fires. It was just all so lovely - there were even lights strung high over the yard. Tammy and her husband were super gracious and provided recommendations for restaurants that we really really loved (Giuseppe’s) and beaches like Avila that we would not have known about without their suggestion. They really made us feel welcome and cared for. We just loved it. Can’t say enough good things about our experience!

Wonderful getaway!

This is our first opportunity in a very long time to celebrate our anniversary. We picked this place for the proximity of the beach and the outdoor space and it exceeded our expectations. The interior is beautiful and thoughtful. Everything is high-quality and comfortable. I will definitely recommend this place to family and friends, and would love to return again, thank you to our wonderful hosts.!

We loved the decor and the beautiful yard. I have a daughter in the area and the host was happy for her family to come over for a BBQ. The bed was very comfortable. It is one of the first places i didn't redecorate in my mind. I was so at peace there.

Nice Getaway

We had an enjoyable stay here. Nicely centrally located to all the places we like to go, yet tucked away in a quiet neighborhood. The house was well organized and uncluttered. Some super cool furniture and even a full set of the Time Life Old West collection my family had when I was a kid. Cool memory I didn’t see on the bookshelf until we were leaving. T&J were helpful with some suggestions and any questions we had. We recommend staying here
