A Beautiful Setting to get away from Urban Life and Recharge

Secluded beautiful studio apartment with everything you need. Bring some food and your favorite beverage, and you will be set. The outdoor area is over 2000 sq. ft. with a smoker, grill, and fire pit. Great wineries like Justin, Halter Ranch, and Tablas Creek are within a 25-minute drive.

Our home is powered by one of the largest home solar plus battery projects in California with an onsite microgrid. Great area for hiking and mountain biking.

You will enjoy entertaining on the deck with an outdoor kitchen and spa that offer amazing lake views. For wine enthusiasts, there is a hobby vineyard featuring Cab and Merlot varietals on approx. 2/3 acre. Bring all your toys because there are two 5-acre easements for lake access located nearby.

We have a large floating dock that you can tie your boat to, fish off of or enjoy some swimming.

OTHER NOTES
-The property is very secure with fencing and a security gate.
-There are multiple outdoor-only cameras on the property that are clearly visible.
-The studio apartment is on the 2nd floor. It is a wide stairway but does require climbing a flight of stairs for access.
-The apartment is in a separate building from our home, but it is on the same property as our home.
-The property is rural; we highly advise planning to arrive during daylight hours. It is very difficult to navigate the rural setting for the 1st time after dark. Most guests have no difficulty once they have made the trip for the first time. NOTE: Access is available at any time of arrival, but owners may not be reachable for assistance via app or phone after 9:30 pm.
-The property is roughly 45 minutes from Paso Robles, the nearest urban center. There are no gas stations or grocery stores after you leave Paso Robles. Please come prepared.
-If bringing a boat or trailer, please call or message. There is plenty of parking space, but due to recent weather events and ongoing road repairs. Please call us for a current update, and we are happy to provide updates and provide assistance with lake directions, etc.
-Boating on Lake Nacimiento requires appropriate boat stickers, licensing, and mussel inspections. Guests bringing boats are responsible for compliance. Please feel free to contact us with questions.
-Fishing on Lake Nacimiento may require a fishing license, it is the guest's responsibility to comply with all licensing requirements.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. Outstanding accommodations with everything there to ensure my comfort
The views are amazing and the accommodations were superb. Very tranquil and relaxing and I’m already looking forward to my next stay. It is pretty far up in the mountains but very much worth the journey of getting there. Aloha and Mahalo from a very satisfied guest.

Great place to stay!!
we had a wonderful over the Thanksgiving holiday. The property is just beautiful, we had full access to property and the floating dock on the lake. Our stay was peaceful and quiet and the property owners are very friendly and generous. We plan to return at some point in the future and we highly recommend that you do too. Thank you Mitch and Judy for everthing! ;-)

Great apartment In beautiful place
Host was very generous and accommodating. Great hike down to the lake and back, amazing grill area at the house and down on the dock. Kitchen was very well stocked with pots, pans, knives, and utensils. The bed is full sized, so maybe a bit small for some. The fancy espresso maker was the frosting on the cake!

Perfect rural getaway
This was a perfect accommodation for a weekend getaway. There is a well stocked kitchen in terms of pots/pans/dishes and guests have access to an impressive outdoor kitchen area. The hosts are incredibly kind and welcoming. It is in a very rural area, which I think the hosts make clear in preparing guests in terms of the benefits of arriving during the day, bringing sufficient food supplies, and making sure you have enough gas. We stayed in winter and did not make use of the lake; however, it is very close to the lake of which they have amazing views.

Pro - reasonably priced, dog friendly with large yard for dogs to run around. Con - not suitable if you want to explore Paso Robles; it will take an hour to drive from this place to downtown.

Quiet place for nice stay
It was a lot of work to get to the property since there was a road closure and no signal on the way. The property owner was good with communication and showed us around the property. The place is quiet and has an amazing view. I wish there was something to do nearby but mostly everything is far away. We did notice a musty smell when we entered but got used to it. This place is perfect if you want to get away and relax by the lake.

An amazing location in the hills!
Even the drive to get to the property is an adventure! Moving through some spectacular wine country and with lots of wildlife to see, we arrived at a quiet place for 2 nights. A really nice studio with a great coffee machine meant we didn't leave the property...we were happy to enjoy the peace and hot weather. Thanks!

My husband and I wanted to experience Paso Robles but also stay at a quiet place away from city like traffic. Although this place is 50min away from Paso we really didn’t mind the drive. We had access to the owners boat dock and enjoy beautiful days in the lake. We also loved the view in front of the house, gorgeous sunrise! The room is comfortable for two people but it allows 3. We will definitely come back next summer. Thank you!

I hope they don't mind return visitors!
You truly need to experience this vrbo rental all on your own because words could never describe this place. The dock was the absolute highlight of our trip although we didn't stay too long, I know exactly what I want to do when I return. I highly advise getting your food shopping before arriving since the nearest store is approx. 45 minutes away. Everything inside the rental was neat, clean, and organized. Sabrina, the host's daughter was very pleasant and willing to help.

Needs some updates
What a lovely location. The inside of the apartment was also beautiful. However, we couldn't get the microwave to work properly -- needs instructions. Also, more detailed instructions for the coffee maker would be helpful. Also, the wifi connection for the TV was spotty. Loved the views, house dogs, and wildlife.

Gorgeous oasis
Loved running away for my birthday weekend. Mitch and Judy, kindest and most considerate hosts.They had shared in an earlier email gas and groceries about 40 minutes away, so we loaded up on groceries, enjoyed cooking in their apartment guest house kitchen. . Their apartment was gorgeous on a sprawling lake view property. Made us feel so comfortable and even let us bathe our dog Dixie in their-upscale pet spa. Loved their dock and enjoyed kayaking, swimming, playing with our water dog and grilling burgers. So restful and just perfect get away, and let us escape for a few days to another world. Thank you for sharing your oasis with us, we would love to come again.
