One of the most spectacular places I have ever stayed. And I have stayed in many VRBO locations. At first I was intimidated because I was having car problems and eventually my battery died so I had to call Aaa to come help me which they did and restored my battery after that. Everything was spectacular. I visited many places my husband and I had visited before he passed, so this was my celebration tour of his life. I could not have been more pleased with everything about the property and once I understood my orientation of the area I absolutely loved the location. I would stay here again over and over and over.

There is no greater peaceful and relaxing place than staying at the Artist Vineyard Cottage. We have returned to this glorious property time and time again, and we always feel that we return to our home away from home. I love to create meals at the cottage to maximize our time with wonderful views of the mountains and trees around us. We are equally close to the wineries of Paso and the coast. We visited Big Sur and the Hearst Castle along highway one as well. As always, we cannot wait to return and to experience this awesome cottage once again. Thank you Lisa and Randy for providing this cottage to us and to others.

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.

Perfect Getaway

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!

Quiet and special

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!

A Wonderful Wine Country Escape Near Paso Robles

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.

Short, but Sweet

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!
