SHARI'S PLACE - UNEXPECTED CHARM; STAND-ALONE COTTAGE

NEW - Refurbished patio and yard with extra seating (see photos). This adorable cozy, stand alone home is quiet with unusual items that you will not see in other vacation rentals. **There is no longer a gas "stove" in the kitchen** We have substituted a new Air Fryer, two burner gas stove top and a large electric skillet. Our guests are amazed that we provide literally everything you may need or want. "Margarita" is conveniently located in the middle of our fabulous San Luis Obispo County wine country. Just 10 minutes to San Luis Obispo on the South bound HWY 101 and 20 minutes to Paso Robles on North bound HWY 101. This home is very close to town and a wonderful place for walking. In town, you will find Ancient Peaks wine tasting and across the street is Santa Margarita Adventures for Zip lining and tours. I do my best to keep my house extremely clean and well maintained and very well equipped. Linens are professionally cleaned and ironed. I personally make sure that all all linens are in top condition for your comfort. Our home is powered by solar! ALWAYS DOING OUR BEST FOR YOUR BEST EXPERIENCE.

A nice retreat

A cute, charming, clean and comfortable cottage with an accommodating owner. In a sleepy rural town a quick drive from San Luis Obispo, this was a nice place to wind down after graduation in SLO. Walking distance to a good breakfast and a few antique/vintage stores. .

Charming Santa Margarita Getaway with Perfect Outdoor Spaces

The house was lovely and perfectly located for my stay. I could easily walk into town for a light meal or wine tasting at Ancient Peaks. It was also ideally situated between San Luis Obispo and Paso Robles. The house itself was beautifully outfitted with everything I needed for a weekend away. I especially enjoyed the two outdoor seating areas where I could sit with my morning coffee and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.

Santa Margarita Gem

Shari’s Place is a very comfortable spacious cottage on a quiet private lane. With many special touches, the cottage has everything needed for cooking, relaxing, and restful sleep. We enjoyed walking the streets of the small friendly town of Santa Margarita and loved the hikes nearby at the Lake and beyond.

Great Getaway Weekend

We came up for a weekend to visit our son at SLO and do a little wine tasting in Paso Robles. The location was perfect, just minutes away from both. Nice local restaurants in waking distance if you don’t want to cook. This place is so cute and clean we can’t wait to come back.
