Ideally situated in a serene residential enclave at the core of the historic downtown area, this delightful craftsman bungalow is just a stone's throw away from the city park, boutiques, wine tasting rooms, such as Serial Wines or Diablo Paso, a myriad of exquisite dining options, a children's museum, art gallery and theater.

Additionally, guests have convenient access the Paso Robles Event Center, which hosts the renowned Mid-State Fair, thrilling equestrian competitions, and an array of entertainment options – all minutes from your doorstep. Venture a short drive away, and you'll discover a plethora of acclaimed wineries, including Le Cuvier and Calcareous on Paso's westside, as well as championship golf courses, like Hunter Ranch. For those craving a scenic outing, the coastal delights of Morro Bay, the artistic community of Cambria, and the historic Hearst Castle await just a pleasant drive away. The Mary Agnes Poe House features a sunny and inviting interior, complete with period furnishings, interesting original architectural features, unique wall coverings, and a fully equipped kitchen.

Three cozy bedrooms beckon with comfortable queen-size beds, while a charming sunroom features a fold-out couch accommodating additional guests. The property boasts two modern full bathrooms, including one with a rejuvenating spa shower. The formal dining room offers seating for eight, providing an ideal setting for shared meals, and extends to a shady deck where guests can savor a glass of wine or a morning cup of tea.

Ample outdoor seating allows for relaxation on the sun-drenched front porch, unwinding amid the blooming flower gardens with a good book in hand, or hosting delightful gatherings with a barbecue on the expansive lawn or intimate conversations under the pergola around the firepit.

    We loved this home. Very cozy and comfortable. The only issue I had was the fence was not stable so we could not leave our curious pup alone. But he loved it!

    The place was quaint, very clean, and very functional. We enjoyed the full kitchen, the BBQ and the fire pit, the separate dining room and living room. Everything worked well. The property is also within walking distance of the quaint center of town, which made it perfect for our purposes. Had a little trouble, initially, getting clear information about how to access the property, but called the phone number and the folks in the office were very friendly, patient, and helpful.

    The kitchen was equipped beautifully for our needs for cooking. We did not need air-conditioning. However we did use the heat and it was great.The guest bathroom, shower and sink are both slow draining. We feel the mattresses could use updating as they’re not terribly comfortable in the one in the middle bedroom next to the master bedroom. Makes a lot of noise when you move in the bed. Also noticed some substantial cobwebs on the chandelier in the dining room and all of the chairs around the fire pit. However, we really enjoyed the home and its location.

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Giving 4 stars for a few reasons - first, a personal preference - the use of Fabuloso cleaner. I cannot stand the fragrance of this cleaning product. It is so overwhelming and strong enough to penetrate floors, furniture, etc., I find it toxic. So, in trying to rid this property of the not so fabulous Fabuloso, I wanted to open windows to air out the house. Not an option. Windows are all painted shut. The french doors out to the side deck were also inoperable. Thankfully, the maintenance group jumped on it - the french doors were made operable almost immediately and a fan was also provided to help air out the house. The other issue that should be noted on the website for this property (or I missed it) is that it doesn’t have cable TV. All TV programming is streamed. As for the house itself - very nice provisions - coffee, creamers, fluffy towels (and plenty of them), comfortable beds, nicely appointed rooms. It’s a lovely older bungalow in a quiet neighborhood.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house is super cute and in a great location. Close to downtown and all the great restaurants and shops. Only downside is the musty/animal(?) smell in the house or maybe the furniture(?). There were two odor eaters behind the tv. Once the air conditioning really got going and air was circulating and filters working, it wasn’t as noticeable and we were able to stay and enjoy ourselves. If you have allergies, you may need to medicate like two of our group did. The home was clean and the outdoor space was a wonderful gathering space to share a glass of wine. Kitchen is well stocked and has everything you need for a vacation.

    This is such a cute house and so ideally located, walking distance to downtown! I stayed with my family and our dogs for a weekend, and it was delightful. The yard was perfect for my dogs to wander and sniff. My only feedback is that while I love a charming old house, I don't love old furniture for sitting and sleeping. The beds were creaky, and the living room furniture didn't quite support 6 people hanging out comfortably. Otherwise, it was fantastic and I would definitely stay there again.

    The Poe house was a cute little historic home. The kitchen was stocked with all the essentials which was great. We have tall people in our family, so the beds were a little small but still comfortable. The neighborhood was very quiet and peaceful. We saw deer in the backyard! So cool! This location is close to town. I would recommend this place.

The kitchen was well appointed with all the necessary tools to put together morning breakfast before our afternoon of wine tasting. Located in a lovely and quiet neighborhood, perfect for morning walks and close to downtown shops and restaurants. The only critique I could offer, a couple more side tables in the living room would be nice. Would definitely recommend and would rent again.
