The quintessential cabin in the woods, this 1BR + loft 2BA home in Templeton offers tucked-away seclusion in a private wooded setting, while still being close to everything. Casa Pinostella is a tranquil getaway just a few minutes from world-class wineries, restaurants, and great day trip destinations - including Paso Robles and Cambria. Enjoy hikes in the surrounding woods, then curl up with a book in this cozy retreat. Each bedroom has its own bath, a futon in the living room adds extra sleeping space, and a full kitchen with upscale appliances lets you cook up tasty meals. A patio table awaits on the deck, and there's plenty of seating and a firepit in a large side yard.
It's easy to socialize together in a large living space, cleverly split into two open sitting areas. A wood-burning fireplace keeps the whole room feeling snug. Watch movies on the living room's 42' TV. Or pick a novel from the book-filled shelves. Whip up a hearty meal in the kitchen, boasting a gas stove, two ovens, a side-by-side refrigerator, and tons of prep space. At the heart of the kitchen, a large dining table is perfect for togetherness.
Upstairs, a lofted sleeping space features pretty wooded views, a queen bed, and a 24' TV. Enjoy a sitting area with a cushioned chair and couch, a walk-in closet, and an en-suite bathroom with a tub/shower combination. On the entry level, more verdant views await in the guest bedroom which has a queen bed and large storage closets. A guest bathroom has a tub/shower combination.
The ultimate escape awaits outdoors. Sprawling wooded grounds surround the home, offering a quiet sanctuary to relax amid nature. Relax and enjoy the serenity on a back deck, complete with a table. In the evenings, head to the side yard to toast marshmallows and sip wine around the firepit. There's plenty of chairs for everyone to sit and chat beneath the star-filled skies.
Cable TV, a washer/dryer, and driveway parking for four vehicles are provided.
Step out your door and spend a morning hiking in the surrounded woodlands. Rock-lined pathways make it easy to explore. Located in the heart of California's famous wine country, you'll love being less than five minutes to numerous world-class wineries and vineyards for tasting sessions. Mix things up with a day trip to the charming seaside town of Cambria (20-minute drive). Or drive 10 minutes to visit more great wineries in quirky Paso Robles - recently rated by travel website Matador Network as one of the 25 coolest towns in America.

Just booked this cool casa for a xmas getaway for a few days with close family and we had a great time. You're away from it all out in the woods, but can still get to the coast/Cambria in 25 mins and into town/Paso Robles/Atascadero/etc in 15 or so as needed. It has a cozy, rustic feel to it which during the wintertime brought some extra holiday charm, while being equipped with a fully-functional kitchen (+ double oven) and entertainment system. Surfaces and beds were all nice and clean. It got pretty cold and the central heating unit was a bit hit or miss at times, but there are two wood burning fireplace/stoves, so just be sure to load up on firewood at Home Depot on the way in off 101 and you'll be good to go. Only other forewarning would be the entry road, it is not marked very clearly, so definitely arrive before sundown on Day 1, and the dirt road conditions were manageable for a 4x4 Crosstrek but if you drive a smaller, lower car do beware. Either way, we definitely look forward to coming back and trying it out in another season for sure!
Rodent poop in the cupboards and drawers. Upstairs toilet not working and shower not draining. Electric wiring and outlets exposed and potentially dangerous. Outside trash bin overflowing and trash scattered all over the driveway. Treacherous steps to house and difficult to find from the 46. I do no recommend this house to anyone with children or older family members. This is like camping, which is not what I paid for.
