Sisters at heart!
We are group of 35 women who have gathered for the past 23 years to eat, drink, craft and enjoy each other. This was our first time staying here and it was perfect! Plenty of room to spread out, visit, puzzle, play games, sit in the sun and all eat together in the dining room. The rooms were plenty large to sleep 4-6 people in each one. The location was perfect…walking distance to the cute town and plenty wineries to drive to as well! And the beach was about a 5 minute drive. We will be back again next year!

Large Parties Comfortable Stay
We really enjoyed our trip with 6 families, totaling 22 people. Plenty of space and beds, and the common areas were delightful. The kids (10 kids, ranging 3-9 yo) really enjoyed the fooseball machine, smart TV, arcade, & the gardens to throw frisbees (we got from local ice cream shop). Abundant & easily available parking for multiple cars, and it was very close and convenient to Trader Joe's, Vons, restaurants, and highways. Decor was lovely, and we all had plenty of space to eat, mingle, and play. The only thing we would have preferred would be a stronger dishwasher (had to pre-rinse & scrub everything), slightly hotter stove, and more utensils. We had to wash forks and spoons by hand in order to have enough for each meal, since we had so many people. It was amazing that they had 3 refrigerators! It was easy to message through the VRBO app a few times (must message rather than text) for some items when they needed quick replacement or replenishment, and the property manager was very responsive. The property manager was among the nicest and most accommodating that we have met, and he helped us through some of our technical challenges (locating the power breaker, figuring out how to lock the front door). Really, he was a pleasure to communicate with, going above and beyond. We would definitely want to come back for another stay, and we appreciate having so many rooms and beds, so that we can be together for our annual friends reunion. Don't hesitate to book!

Fabulous place for a reunion with friends or family
Love this place. It is the second year in a row we have rented this former inn for our family reunion. Pros: * Great location near wineries, the beach and walking distance to Arroyo Grande's adorable downtown * 7 spacious bedrooms upstairs each with a private bath * 3 ground floor bedrooms - good for elderly parents * LOTS of seating in the dining room - perfect for group dinners * Three refrigerators in the kitchen * BEAUTIFUL garden, perfect for group photos * Parking for up to 10 cars Cons: * Need to plan meals carefully - only 1 small oven with 4 burners (didn't try using outside BBQ) * Limited activities for kids on-site (board games & foosball table only) * 3 adjoining ground-level bedrooms share 1 bathroom & entrance (former living area for innkeeper?) Thank you for letting us stay here! We would highly recommend this place.

Anniversary Weekend Getaway
We did a weekend stay with some of our closest friends - we were a group of 30 people in total, including 2 infants. The property looked stunning in the photos when we booked it, and let me tell you that it did not disappoint in person! Despite having a fairly large group it never felt stuffy or claustrophobic because of how roomy it is. The villa is immaculately maintained and curated with all the necessary amenities available to make the stay comfortable. We were able to host a brunch and games afternoon out on the beautiful manicured lawn, and a small ceremony by the gazebo, followed by dinner and drinks in the dining area. Last but not least, John is the best host that we could’ve asked for. He is extremely helpful and accommodating. He was responsive and helped us with any questions that we had and also provided excellent recommendations on local attractions, places to rent from etc. He went above and beyond to even ship and return an item on our request, that we accidentally left behind at the property. Our friends couldn’t stop raving about the experience. Highly recommend John and his gorgeous property, and we will be sure to book it again in the future!

wonderful home for large gatherings
Such a lovely, clean stay for the weekend. Really convenient college reunion spot with many young families, super helpful host responded to all our messages quickly. There's so much to do in the area- lots of activities and eateries that are only a short 5 min drive (or half mile walk.) We loved that there was even NBA Jam in the corner ... lovely surprise. Would recommend and we hope to be back.

Great for groups!
We stayed here for my son’s wedding. We had several out of town guests and hosted an outdoor picnic rehearsal dinner on the grounds. It was a beautiful backdrop for a special evening! The house had everything you needed and the host was quite helpful as I was coming from out of town. Also many of our guests said this was a great spot…everyone had a bed…no sofa pull-outs which was great! It was also nice to have a meeting spot for the groomsmen and family. Would definitely recommend for large groups!
