The Casita at Rancho Dos Hijas Estate

The Casita is situated on 112 acres of cattle grazing land 15 minutes from downtown San Luis Obispo. The property provides expansive 360 degree views of surrounding vineyards and mountains. It is peaceful and secluded but a short, 15 minute drive to award-winning wineries, the Avila and Pismo Beaches, and downtown SLO. Enjoy nature during the day on surrounding private patios or stargazing at night. Dine on the outdoor patio with views of grazing cattle and beautiful surrounding mountains. The privacy is unparalleled. 3 luxurious king sized beds in private bedrooms await and a fully stocked, well- appointed kitchen appeals to dining in-home. Bring your bikes, hiking shoes, beachwear or favorite comfort wear to explore all of the beauty in San Luis Obispo and the Edna Valley wine country.

Beautiful and relaxing SLO ranch. - heavenly retreat
We were so delighted with our stay. The photos accurately depict how beautiful the location and surroundings of this home are. Although it’s only 15-20 minutes away from the beach or downtown SLO, you feel a world away, ensconced in rolling hills, surrounded by grazing animals and groves of citrus. The owners take a lot of pride in the upkeep and we thoroughly enjoyed the thoughtful touches and cleanliness throughout. We grilled on the lovely patio, animal-gazed, walked about the beautiful grounds and LOVED our stay here.

Gorgeous views of hills and pastures
This is a spectacularly beautiful setting. The casita is in excellent condition and well furnished. Our hosts, Gary and Amber, were very gracious and available if needed but unobtrusive if not. Many nice touches beyond the usual. We will definitely return.

Wonderful property, and terrific hosts
Our stay for a week at Gary's casita was delightful. Nestled in the hills on a ranch with spectacular views, and an easy drive to SLO. The house is very well maintained, and it had all the amenities of home, making our stay very comfortable. Nice patios to enjoy the surroundings and to relax after a day of cycling and wine tasting. Our host, Gary, is gracious and welcoming. We had a terrific time getting to know him. I will certainly return. Thank you Gary for making our vacation extra special.

The Casita was absolutely beautiful, and perfect for our family to stay in after a long drive from Oregon. Gary and Amber take great pride in their property, and it shows. They have very clear instructions on how to get to the Casita. It is incredibly well maintained, very clean, and the beds are soooo comfortable! The views around the property are stunning, and it is so peaceful and serene. It was lovely talking with Gary when we checked in - very hospitable and kind. They definitely went above and beyond, and if we make it down to SLO again, we would certainly choose to stay here. Thank you for everything!

Girls weekend
My 3 daughters and I spent a long weekend at the casita and had a great time. Because the property is a ways out of town, we spent the days exploring SLO and the evenings at the property- the kitchen is the best equipped we’ve ever experienced, and the views, vistas and wildlife were enchanting. If SLO has nightlife, we missed it, but we had such fun cooking together, doing a puzzle, and enjoying one another. Couldn’t have asked for a better time!

Beautiful getaway
The property is beautiful! We woke up the first morning and saw deer in the distance, grazing on the hills. The interiors are cozy and clean and the outdoor spaces are straight from a storybook! We had one mishaps on our end and the owners were super understanding and we were really appreciative of that. I do recommend being cautious around the dogs on the property and don’t approach or pet them. Overall, I loved everything about this place and would definitely stay here again!

Short and Serene
We were six adults traveling to the area for a wedding, so unfortunately did not have as much time to relax and enjoy the spectacular views as we would have liked. We appreciated the wine and snacks, coffee and orange juice for the mornings. Communication with our host was quick and easy. The pictures are accurate. The bedrooms are comfortable and how nice to have king beds! The bathrooms are a bit dated but clean. We didn’t really use the kitchen since our stay was so brief. The star of the place is the vista outside: beautiful and serene. We enjoyed viewing the far off animals with the provided binoculars. Visitors should be aware there are dogs owned by the host which are kept from the house by a radio fence. No need to be concerned about them. We found access to SLO to be easy and a Vons for quick groceries close by. We did not test the Uber availability for the location, but it looked like it wouldn’t be a problem. The community is gated. We look forward to returning to the area and thank our hosts for sharing their charming casita with travelers like us 😊
