Hilltop Ranch Estate
My family and I really enjoyed our stay at this property. Views were fantastic. Morning fogs would clear out to clear sky views of SLO and a small part of the Edna Valley while relaxing in a great jacuzzi. All of the amenities were working, well labeled, easy to operate, and in good working order. There was plenty of extra seating outdoors provided and many intimate spaces to just sit and meditate as the beautiful landscapes of the Central Coast evolve during the day. Communications with the staffing was also accomplished in a timely manner. Local stores are close enough to get to in about 10 to 15 minutes. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to return again next year for our yearly tribal gathering with all of our Central Coast friends.

Beautiful home and property!
I booked Parker’s Place for my bachelorette party, and I couldn’t picture a more stunning place to celebrate. The view is absolutely incredible, and the outside seating and vineyards in the yard are so picturesque and peaceful. This was my first time back in SLO since graduating 8 years ago, and I couldn’t have chosen a better place to do so. The beds were also so comfortable, and the inside of the house is as gorgeous as the outside. You get the peace and quiet of being a bit outside of town, but you’re still a really quick drive to downtown. I highly recommend staying here, and I had a truly wonderful time!

Wow! What a gorgeous home.
I cannot say enough good things about this gorgeous home. It's light and bright, the furnishings are beautiful, and the view is unparalleled. You feel like you're away from it all, but you're actually quite close to everything, from downtown to wineries. Our kids loved visiting the chickens, and the adults spent evenings around the fire pit. We will be sure to visit again.

Picture Perfect
Immaculate, spacious, comfortable, with sweeping views of Bishop Peak, Madonna and more from all three bedrooms, kitchen, living and dining rooms. That’s saying a lot, as they slope down to San Luis Obispo, proper, which glimmers softly from those vistas at night. The outdoor spaces are designed for enjoying the views. A tiny slice of 101 is visible off to the west. We visit our adult son a few times during the year, and this is our favorite spot so far. Charming Victorian farmhouse exterior in a subtle cheerful yellow with a wrap-around veranda that invites you to sit a spell—all the lighting is enhancing, inside and out, kitchen well supplied with staples and gadgetry. Shhh, keep it to yourself, this is a hidden gem in the canyons, complete with roosting hens in a darling self contained coop, wine grapes outside your dining area, a horse down the road, and even a bronze deer and longhorn ram to greet you as you enter. We would be delighted to do return visits.

Hard to leave!
We have traveled and stayed at quite a few rental homes and this has been our favorite. The view is perfection. The home is so well decorated and inviting. We enjoyed walking the grounds, the fire pit area at night, cooking in the well stocked kitchen, puzzles and games that were found in the closet, and the beds were very comfortable. We did not have any issues during our stay. I only wish we had more time because it was so hard to leave this beautiful home! Thank you for allowing our family to enjoy this peaceful spot for the weekend. It will be something we will always remember.

Parker’s Place
We enjoyed our first trip away from our kids at Parker's Place for a wedding nearby in Santa Margarita. It’s big enough to host a family, but we just enjoyed sleeping in and soaking up the peaceful and breathtaking views on the property to ourselves. The place feels secluded and intimate, but it’s centrally located to any city you’d want to explore in the area; Paso Robles, SLO, Pismo Beach, Moro Bay, Santa Margarita, etc. It’s comfortable, clean, spacious and is stocked with all amenities. We would stay again!

Family trip with all adults this time. This home looks just like the photos, only better! The beautiful and comfortable indoor and outdoor spaces really added so much to our experience. Quiet and secluded yet easy access to everywhere we wanted to go on our daily excursions. I hope to return someday and explore the area further with this as a "home base!" Hosts were very helpful and responsive.

Beautiful property for a weekend getaway
This property is absolutely stunning. It’s situated up on a hill so you get great views of the hills of SLO. There is even a chicken coup on site! The hosts were great to work with and were quick to respond. For the size of the house, I was a little surprised there was only 3 bedrooms, but 2 of the bedrooms have pullout couches so we were able to accommodate everyone in our group. I would definitely recommend this rental!

This is a fabulous property, in terms of views, location and amenities. We had a fantastic stay for 2 families (4 adults, 4 kids); really enjoyed the backyard views of the Central Coast hills and valleys, grilling and fire-pit in the evening, the amazing hot tub in the late afternoons. There's ample space for the adults to lounge and the kids to play around. We miss it already!

Dreamy Vacation
My husband and I planned a vacation with our family and had an amazing time at Parker's Place Ranch. The home is beautifully furnished, spacious, and has everything you need to make homemade meals. We thoroughly enjoyed the firepit and BBQing outside as well. The views are stunning and the garden is a tranquil place to enjoy. Ther is a beautiful lawn to play outdoor games. We brought bocce ball and cornhole with us. There are also board games available to play inside! The managers of the property communicate very well and were so helpful throughout our entire stay. They are warmhearted people that made us feel very welcomed. Before finding Parker's Place, I messaged about twenty different homes. After I spoke with Logan and Krisy, I knew it was the perfect place to stay. We loved everything about it! We highly recommend this ranch estate!
