    This property is a little haven away from civilization. It is quiet, peaceful, cozy, and comfy, and it is very lovely in all the details and in how much care and love was put into this cottage.

    PerfectionPhotos can’t capture the beauty and serenity of the Artist’s Cottage. We’ve stayed in quite a number of vacation homes and this is truly a standout. The driveway runs up through a vineyard to the cozy and well appointed cottage with a million dollar view, and plenty of outdoor space to enjoy it all.Templeton wine trail, SLO, Paso Robles and all the amazing coastal towns at your fingertips, and an amazing private retreat to come home to.Wonderful hosts as well. Thank You Lisa and Randy for a one of a kindstay on the central coast!

    We were very impressed by how well organized everything was. The place is beautiful. It's a little off the beaten path, as you may end up driving 10 miles in any direction to visit sites, but that worked out quite nicely for us.The check-in and checkout process was very easy.

    My wife and I stayed at the artist retreat in Templeton to celebrate our 15th wedding anniversary, and our experience far exceeded our expectations.The cottage was charming and well-stocked, and the fresh flower bouquet was an unexpected touch, making it feel like a true home away from home.The location and views were simply incredible. We spent much of our time on the front porch, soaking in the beautiful scenery, fresh air, and watching the wildlife.It was the perfect getaway for us as a couple—a peaceful escape from the daily grind, crowds, and traffic.We absolutely loved our stay!

    we were looking for a getaway that would be a relief from all the construction and digging with its accompanying noises and dirt/dust that was the current standard on our street at home. We found it!…and more. The house is well-supplied and the owners are super responsive to any need. When they deliver a requested item, they will leave it near the cottage and text you the location. Your privacy and peace are their first concern. We will be going back and soon!

    My wife and I recently enjoyed a mini-honeymoon at the Artist Vineyard Cottage and had a fantastic time. The private cottage is on a secluded hilltop overlooking the Santa Lucia mountain range and the gorgeous green bucolic valley below. The views are spectacular. If you're looking for a secluded, calm, and relaxing retreat in the Paso Robles wine country, this is the place!The cottage is about twenty minutes outside the hustle and bustle of central Paso Robles, but just a few minutes from several exceptional wineries. The cottage is also about 30-45 minutes from Cambria and Hearst Castle, and there are several options for day trips and exploration of California's Central Coast.The cottage was tastefully decorated and furnished with everything you could need for a romantic and relaxing stay. Lisa and Randy, the property owners, were warm, welcoming, and very attentive.The Artist Vineyard Cottage comes with our highest recommendation, and we look forward to visiting it again soon.

    This was our second visit to the cottage, though, unfortunately, we could only stay for three days. We thoroughly enjoyed the peace and tranquility of the area. This property is, without a doubt, one of the best VRBOs we’ve ever stayed in. The cottage is thoughtfully stocked with everything you could possibly need!

    Exactly as advertised. Very comfy, and everything a kitchen could need. Small yet felt spacious. Only downside was constant traffic noise from busy road nearby. We enjoyed the hummingbirds and flock of wild turkeys.

    My wife and I have now stayed at Lisa & Randy's cottage 6 times--each time for about a week. Although we travel a lot, we've never had a rental we love as much as this one. The house is absolutely serene and comfortable, well equipped with top-notch appliances and amenities (including central heat and high-speed wifi), and beautifully located on top of a hill overlooking vineyards, oak-covered hillsides, and the coast range beyond. We spent hours hanging around the house, both inside and out, reading or sipping wine, and we cooked all our meals here. The location can't be beat: up in the mountains away from it all, but only 20 minutes from the beach and 20 minutes the other way to world-renowned wineries. Cambria is a great town, too: good natural foods, very arty-crafsty. Lisa and Randy are wonderful hosts. They're generous and reliable, fun to hang out with if they have the time, but also respectful of their guests' privacy. We adore this property, and can't wait to come back.
