About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

A five star gem in the middle of the Paso Robles Wine District. Don't miss out.

Note: You have found it! . Congratulations! You've found the ideal spot for wine tasting and falling in love with the Central Coast region of California. Located one quarter of a mile off the road, this beautiful, gated property, the Willow House, provides peace, quiet and security for guests. We've noticed a new dynamic from Bay Area and L.A. guests. Yes, they come for the wine but more and more are asking us about the area with a view toward relocating. But, enough of that. Wine is our passion and we have it! There is easy access to the multitude of wineries in the area, (in fact, we're smack in the middle of the Paso Robles wine district) with helpful knowledge,( if desired,) from your hosts who have witnessed the growth of the industry in the past 27 years. Although wine is high on the lists of visitors, your hosts can be very helpful in guiding you to the best of restaurants, attractions such as Hearst Castle, Morro Bay and other highlights of the area. Willow House comes completely furnished, with separate bedrooms and baths for each couple. A top of the line BBQ, and a kitchen full of all you'll need to prepare breakfast or a full meal. The expansive deck is a pleasant evening rest spot for each to contemplate the view with a favorite glass of wine. We consider, and guests agree, that our beds are most comfortable. We would love to host you at the Willow House.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, which features a fireplace and a Smart TV. There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Enjoy recreation amenities such as a water park or take in the view from a garden.
Featured amenities include laundry facilities and a water dispenser.

Fantastic

Even better than descriptions and photos. Private, quiet, plenty of space, fully functioning quality appliances, lots of bed and bath supplies, huge number of pillows on the beds and couches, fully stocked kitchen for just about anything you might need or have forgotten. Quick response from owners, easy cleanup rules, good WiFi, even a spare phone charger plugged in and ready... I could just keep going. No downsides or caveats, all positive.

Perfect home for two couples. Short drive to Paso to enjoy Niner Winery. Beautiful drive to Morro Bay. Central location to many of our favorite places to visit. We plan to make Willow House our home away from next year. We appreciate the clean well stocked home.

We absolutely loved our stay. The house is very roomy. The kitchen has nice touches with everything you need. We enjoyed the fire pit and the quiet. If you are looking for a quiet getaway- this is perfect. It’s still close to town for anything you need or just to enjoy the square in Paso Robles. We saw a rabbit in the flower garden. It was perfect. Might check on the water pressure in the master bath. We hope to be back soon!

Cozy Cottage in Paso Robles Wine Country

The Willow House was the perfect basecamp for our September weekend exploring the Paso Robles wine district. Cozy and charming, nestled amongst golden rolling hills with gorgeous expansive views, the little cottage is situated at the end of a long gated driveway lined with almond trees near the owners' house but with plenty of privacy. We appreciated the well-appointed kitchen, the welcome gift of a bottle of local wine, the beautiful landscaping, cozy living room, comfy couches, and morning coffee on the porch watching hummingbirds and butterflies among the garden flowers before heading out for our adventures of the day. Perfect for a family or two couples. Our only regret is that we couldn't stay longer!

Wonderful getaway to Paso!

We loved our stay in this quiet bungalow. The communication with the owners was fabulous and plenty of instructions on how to use everything in the house. The house was clean and so comfortable, with a perfectly stocked kitchen. The outdoor space was so nice and we enjoyed the location a bit further away from the downtown area. The local recommendations were greatly appreciated...loved Still Waters Winery! We will definitely be back!

Wonderful house in great location

The house was clean, well appointed, and super comfortable. I enjoyed evenings on the front porch watching fantastic sunsets while enjoying local wine. There’s a gated driveway and owners are on property in a separate house, so very safe. Lots of birds and deer to observe on site, and an easy drive to Cambria on the coast (45 minutes) for a total change of landscape and opportunity to watch sea otters at play! Owners provided a list of recommended wineries and restaurants, containing some real gems. Highly recommend this rental!!!

Home away from home

Our stay in the Willow House could not have been lovelier. The property itself is amazing and in late February with the almond trees in bloom it was beyond beautiful. The amenities in the house were generous and communication was a breeze. It was a perfect choice for two couples on a central coast getaway. We highly recommend this rental.
