Lupine Ranch - Wine Country Guest House

Experience country living near the historic town of Templeton, exactly half way between Los Angeles and San Francisco. This is the heart of the central coast wine country. The Lupine Ranch consists of 300 private acres of oak covered rolling hills - which guests can use for long hikes and relaxed picnics.

The Guest House at Lupine Ranch has two bedrooms, each with a king bed, and 2 full baths, a full kitchen and an expansive living area. The house has a tree shaded patio with great views perfect for afternoon lounging, evening barbecues and late night star gazing. There is also fire pit (winter only) and a regulation bocce court.

Activities include wine tasting at nearby world class wineries, bicycling on the backcountry roads, or golf at any of the areas challenging courses. Visit one of the areas renowned farmer's market full of fresh local produce, meats, breads, and other goods. Drive to the coastal towns of Cambria, Morro Bay, or San Simian, only +/-40 miles away, and visit the stunning coastline or Hearst Castle. Activities such as wine tours, kayaking and horseback riding can be arranged through local companies.

The Central Coast wine country offers activities year round. Summer turns the hills golden brown and brings outdoor concerts, the California Mid-State Fair. Grape harvest marks the fall when local wineries buzz with activity. Winter rains make for cozy weekends. In spring the hills turn green and the wildflowers are fantastic.

Whenever you decide to come, we will help make your stay one to remember.

For additional housing options on the Lupine Ranch please visit the Wine Country Ranch House, VRBO #467860, for a larger, more private venue. Both houses are available together for larger groups, Family reunions, or company retreats. Please contact the owner for more details.

Prenominal property
Went to Paso for a weekend getaway. Check in was very easy, owner met us at the house to give us a run down. Property is beautiful, clean, & quiet. 15 minute drive to the downtown city park. Great location! Will definitely return and I can't recommend this home enough.

Peaceful
My husband and I came with my 88 year old FIL. Perfect location for some peace and quiet. The home is quit large and allowed privacy for each of us, bedrooms and baths were on opposite sides of the home Nice to come back here each day to just relax and unwind. Location in the middle of fields but like 10min from Trader Joes.

A great place for a family gathering
The house was perfect for a family graduation party and the setting is beautiful. We were able to prepare in the kitchen and gather in the living area and patio. Perfect for what we needed! Everything was very clean and convenient. The location is very peaceful and away from the crowd. I will most definitely come back, but this time, for a longer stay.

Home away from Home
The accommodations were great; we had the house to ourselves, and I brought my sister up for bonding time. Great spot to tuck away for a few days, and just far enough away from everything, a rural setting, and thoughts running through my head of what early California was once like. I'm coming back for more.... Will is fabulous and a great host!

Peace on the Ranch
I went to this location for its peace and quiet. A spacious ranch guest with two bathrooms and two bedrooms provided needed tranquility. The owner was great. House was opened Cooked my breakfast and made coffee. One night enjoyed a glass of 13 year old zin with appetizers on the patio and watched the sunset.

The most perfect getaway!
This property and house have it all!! 35 minutes from the coast and just a couple of miles from one of Templeton’s biodynamic wineries, you can have the best of both worlds here! My sister and I cannot wait to plan our return trip. Thank you for everything, Will! It was beyond perfect.

Just as advertised. Will is a wonderful host. The wildflowers at this time of year are breathtakingly beautiful. Hubby loved the magpies and expansive views. Kitchen supplies are rudimentary, but with all the amazing local eateries, who cares. Do try Taste in Paso!!!

Large house in the country
The house is perfect for a family with two bedrooms two baths. There are also two living rooms There were a couple of downsides. No TV, so bring your devices for streaming. The furniture is all well used. It would’ve felt a lot more welcoming if there had been some basics like makings for coffee, etc.. However, my bed was amazing and I slept better than I sleep

Perfect stay near Paso Robles
We had a great time at the ranch house! We we're two families, each of two adults and a toddler. The house was perfect for us. It is very spacious and well organized, and is essentially composed of two unites that are connected together (the kitchen being in one of them). So it's perfect for two families who want to spend time together. The location is fantastic. The house sits on a huge property, with hills and trails surrounding it, and is right next to many vineyards. Still, it is only a short ten minute drive to Paso Robles. Will has been great in communicating everything before and during our stay. We will certainly stay in the ranch house again next time we're in the area!

Quiet lovely place to relax from the city
Loved it. It was a nice quiet place with rolling hill all around the property. A nice place to get away from TV and just relax. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen and dining room big. There just was no body soap. Good thing I brought my own and the bathroom rug should be replaced. But these were minor issues. I would come again.

Great central CA getaway
We had a great time staying at Wills property set on rolling hills in Templeton. Has a very secluded feel but was only 10min away from civilization (equidistant to Paso Robles and Atascadero). Was also convenient to access Sensorio (night time light show outside of Paso Robles). When we arrived it was super hot day so we drove to Morro Rock beach for a great day excursion. I could also see this property working well for a group that would enjoy a central location for wine tasting in the vicinity. We even left a cherished article of clothing behind and Will took the time to mail it back to us. What a great host!

Fun Family Stay
We planned a visit to the area to visit my sister ( 4 Adults 2 Children 5 years and 9 months) . Contact with The Owner (Will) was easy and problem free. Will also met us at the house for check in and a quick tour ( he lives on the ranch). House is situated in very quiet ranch setting surrounded by vineyards. Very relaxing and beautiful sunsets. The house has everything you need but was a little short on decent pots, pans etc. but not a deal breaker. As I stated at first we were visiting my sister who lives in the area and we would definitely stay at Lupine Ranch again

Roomy
We had a great time at the house! It was a special treat for our city kids to be able to stay in the country and run around outside to their heart’s content. Plenty for the adults to enjoy in the outdoors as well, particularly the patio with bbq. Beautiful views. I regret that we didn’t get to explore more of the property! Even though it’s quiet and out of the way, we found it easy to get to Paso and the surrounding area. The house is quite large- basically two small homes connected together. We had plenty of space, and the two sides of the house worked very well when we needed a quiet working area and a louder play area. I appreciated the walk through with Will when we arrived so we felt informed and comfortable with everything. The house was well appointed with basic necessities. I think my only complaint was that the tile floors were harsh on my feet- just should have brought some slippers or other indoor footwear. We would definitely stay again if we were back in the area!

Serene and Relaxing
We had a wonderful stay at Lupine Ranch! We were in the location for a Spartan Race, so we needed a comfortable place to stay that was near the race. The Ranch was perfect! We were able to cook an early breakfast and relax after the run. Our host was very helpful, communicative, and accommodating the entire visit. We ran into some issues which caused a late arrival, but our host accommodated our late check in without any issues. We really appreciated the more rural location as it was very peaceful and calm. The house worked great for our group of 3 and was very comfortable. We appreciated the 2 full bathrooms for showers and privacy. If we, or anyone we know is booking something in the area, I would highly recommend Lupine Ranch!

Spacious, private, quiet, unique. We loved watching the sunset from the top of the "world", strolling along deserted dirt roads through the fields and under the oaks, watching the skys for redtail hawks as the ground squirrels scurry for shelter. Yes, Will is a great host, and Steve is fun to talk to.
