This is a traveler's haven

This beautiful home will welcome either the solo traveler or families, we are ready for you! Enjoy the deck while you relax by the chimanea, or get into the spa for total relaxation! The house has three bedrooms, and the upstairs room can also has a queen sized bed. There is a very comfortable Murphy bed in the fireplace room. The playroom is great for kids! I recently added an electric fireplace/heater to the master bedroom, so lovely to wake up and look out at the mountain while you are comfy and warm in bed... I love sharing my home with others, I know that you will love it too!

Wonderful SLO Stay

The back deck steals the show! The home is very comfortable and had everything we needed for a long weekend. Outside is where we spent most of our time, though. 70 degrees in July (some of us came from Alabama) and a wide variety of birds to watch and identify. I definitely recommend you consider this home for your next visit to SLO.

Gorgeous view, perfect for family gatherings

We had a wonderful weekend here. Leslie was responsive and welcoming. We had a couple family gatherings out on the deck and the view was absolutely gorgeous. The kids play room and ping pong table were a hit.

Leslie’s home is a happy home. The home is beautifully and comfortably decorated. Smiling photos of Leslie’s family adorn the walls. The home has such a positive vibe that you can’t help but absorb the good energy of the place. Our family of eight enjoyed the lake view and all of the comfort and amenities of the house. It is a quiet neighborhood from which we explored Avila Beach and the town of SLO. Our main reason to visit was for a family wedding in Edna. The house was perfect and convenient for this purpose. Morning coffee on the deck while bird watching and chatting was our favorite activity. This is Leslie’s happy place which makes you want to take extra care in keeping it lovely.
