MOUNTAIN TOP GETAWAY : Best View In SLO! : Pets welcome
MAKING MEMORIES WITH AN UNFORGETTABLE VIEW !
The "Irish Hills House" at the top of Prefumo Canyon has the Best View in SLO with stunning 180-degree panoramas stretching from ocean, valley, mountain and cityscape. The view is famous and tourists and locals alike stop at the vista point turn off. The Irish Hills House is above the Prefumo vista point, at the top of the mountain and has a fantastic view!
Our pet friendly vacation rental is conveniently located to 15 minutes to SLO (DT and Cal Poly), 15 minutes to the ocean (Avila Beach) and half way between LA & SF. We are near wonderful activities, wineries and experiences.
The most common guest comment, "The photos do not do the views justice!". You can get to know the property at @bourbonandcider (your four legged Golden Retriever Assistant Hosts) and @visitvista (the official IG) - we post daily!
Irish Hills House has two bedrooms upstairs with dormer ceilings, one is small with a floor queen bed, ideal for children or a short adult. The other bedroom has two queen beds. In addition, there is a king bed downstairs (not private) in the common living area. The space can accommodate 8.

We store two additional queen size futons and a 'Pack n' Play' for babies. There are bathrooms on each level, a fully outfitted kitchen and a large outdoor deck. There are great views from every window. Fully equipped kitchen for family dining. I think the kitchen window must have one of the best views ever for washing dishes! :)
We are on the famous Pacific Coast Highway (Hwy. 1). The coastal retreat halfway between LA and SF. Our road (Prefumo Canyon) turns into See Canyon and leads to Avila Beach. There is a short 15 minute scenic drive to downtown SLO (Thursday Night Farmer’s Market, restaurants, nightlife etc.) and beautiful Avila Beach (spectacular beach, pier, shops, wineries, etc). Famous Avila and Sycamore Mineral Springs offer a therapeutic experience in a group setting or privately in secluded tubs set amongst the tree-canopied hillside. You are in a serene and peaceful setting, but not too far from all the action!
We are on 8 mountain top acres with world class views, hikes and wildlife right outside your door. Barbecue, share a meal and wine on the deck or picnic down by the raised garden beds. We invite our guests to enjoy fresh vegetables and eggs from the gardens and henhouse, so help yourself! In addition to our chickens, we have a pet tortoise named 'Walter' (Everyone loves Walter) and a Koi Pond in front of the Irish Hills House.
The vacation rental is well suited to romantic & girls getaways, family friendly & Cal Poly parents stays, adventure seekers & coastal journeys. We love dogs here!
This is a dedicated VRBO, which is professionally cleaned before each guest's arrival with clean and fresh, sheets and towels. The house is maintained in pristine condition in preparation to offer a 'hotel-clean' experience amongst breathtaking mountain-top views in nature and tranquility.
The Irish Hills House is across a deck from our main home. We respect boundaries and the experience is intimate and free of distraction.
We run at almost full occupancy, so if you see an opening and you are ready - please feel free to Instant book! Also, please feel free to follow up with any questions - none are silly :)!
See you soon!
