Private 2-Story Cottage w/2 Fireplaces - 10 Minute Walk Into Los Olivos!
Welcome! Our beautiful cottage is just a short 10 minute walk to the center of Los Olivos on our private 5 acre ranch. Drive through the gates, past the corrals, up the tree lined drive and enter our renovated cottage. The cottage used to be a hunting cabin back in the 1960's and still retains all of it's charm. Enter into the living area with thick log walls original to cottage. You'll find hardwood floors and a gas fireplace that open onto a dining area with a huge bay window. There's a complete kitchen with dark granite counters and marble floors, and a laundry/pantry room with your own washer & dryer. Tucked near the stairs is a fully equipped, renovated bathroom with a big, tiled shower and large fluffy towels. Off the dining area, there's a cozy bedroom with a queen size bed and views of the garden. Wander up the staircase and you will discover the perfect master-suite. Light the fireplace and sink into the queen size bed with down comforter for a fabulous night's sleep. Just steps away is the bathroom complete with a Jacuzzi tub framed by Carrara marble. The front deck has a porch swing and a wrought-iron table & chairs with a BBQ around the side. Across the yard is a picnic table under bistro lights if you prefer to dine al fresco. For entertainment, the cottage has a 32 inch flatscreen TV in the living area with a Roku box that has Netflix, Amazon and HBO, (no live tv/cable). There's a dedicated Wifi network covering all of the house and grounds.
Cyclists are welcome! Los Olivos is a haven for cyclists. You can stash your bikes in our bike garage and if you need tools or air, we can help.
The cottage is short 1/2 mile from the town of Los Olivos. It is situated up on a hill surrounded by huge mature trees, and an occasional inquisitive horse in the nearby pastures. You won't see any streetlights here. Close enough to pop into town but totally secluded for your privacy. SLEEPS 4 MAX.

This is a cute cottage in great proximity to Los Olivos. We walked to town a few times. Fun hangout areas, comfy beds and well stocked kitchen. We will definitely stay here again.
Such a cute place to stay in LO! Cottage was well stocked and extremely clean. The yard and property was gorgeous and even though the owners are right up the hill, everyone feels a world away. We will definitely stay again.
Had a wonderful stay. The cottage is charming and comfortable. The kitchen had everything you would need to prepare meals and an added bonus - front loading washer and dryer! Great outdoor spaces to relax in as well. Would definitely stay there again.
This is a great location if you want to have peace and quiet but be close to Los Olivos! The guest house is charming, immaculate and comfortable. This was our second stay there and we will be back again!
We thoroughly enjoyed our two night stay. The home was cozy and well equipped. The grounds were serene and relaxing. The hosts are very welcoming, available and accommodating. We would stay again.
This is the perfect place to get away. Close enough to town to walk for coffee and dinner, but be in peace and bliss out on the ranch. The house is perfect for 2 couples. We have stayed here before and will try to come again.
This is our second time staying in this cozy cottage. I wouldn’t change a thing about it. I think it’s even cuter in person. Very clean. Well-equipped kitchen. Perfect location for wine tasting and hanging out in such a beautiful property. Horses on the property and the best dog Dexter! We will be back!
Amazing horse farm property. Cottage is privately placed, very cozy, comfortable, and nicely decorated/furnished. Easy walk or bike ride into town. Entrance driveway is magical.
We enjoyed staying at this home and property as much as we did during first visit 3 years ago. Once again, we were greeted with farm fresh eggs to enjoy at breakfast. Dexter the dog joined us for morning strolls. Gas fireplace added great ambience on chilly evenings/early mornings. There is a warmth to this house that one can only know by staying there. Would stay there again a heartbeat.
A beautiful cottage in Los Olivos. Modern and clean with all the amenities you need.
The hosts were easy to work with and made sure we were all set during our trip.
Horses and chickens greeted us as well as their cute and friendly dog Dexter.
The backyard provided a great spot to unwind and enjoy the country.
Would recommend to anyone.
The “cabin” is cozy and inviting. The grounds are peaceful and beautiful. If you like a farm life you’ll love this place, we did. The hosts are friendly and welcoming. We loved the place and will return.
The house and property were very clean and well cared for. The kitchen was well stocked and the beds were very comfortable. It's a short distance of the main street and gated as well so it was very private and quiet. We hope to stay here the next time we visit the area!
Such a cozy comfortable and well appointed home on a gorgeous piece of property!! The beds are so comfortable, the linens and towels are good quality and the kitchen is well-stocked with high quality utensils and cookware. And you can walk to town because it’s so close. Can’t say enough great things about this home!!!
The cottage was perfect for a relaxing getaway. The attention to detail was excellent. Fully stocked cottage with everything we needed and beautifully decorated. The best Vrbo I’ve ever stayed in. We will definitely be back. Thank you so much to our hosts!
We had the best time at this beautiful cottage. The cottage is very clean and is very thoughtfully equipped. There were four adults and there was plenty of room. The surroundings are stunning. I can’t wait to return and soon. I can’t enough great things about this cottage!
We loved our time in Los Olivos. The listing is absolutely wonderful. It was very clean, comfortable, quiet and restorative. It's a very special place. We hope to come back!
The TWO fireplaces, the soaking tub, the authentic log cabin feel...this is a truly magical property--next to a 300 year old oak trees, no less, and so close to town. We loved our stay and will definitely be returning!!
Engagement weekend for our son and future daughter in law 💛
Very nice! The place was so adorable and a wonderful location walkable to such a cute town and yummy wine tasting rooms and restaurants :)

About the host
Hosted by John
We are former Los Angeles/New York transplants who abandoned city life for the tranquil surroundings of Los Olivos.
Why they chose this property
The tasting rooms, galleries, and restaurants of our quaint town are only a 15 minute walk. There's biking, horseback riding, golf, tennis, theatre, movies, shopping, festivals, farmer's markets and more. Santa Barbara, “the American Riviera,' is a short 30 minute drive south. Beautiful beaches are even closer, and never crowded. And our Los Olivos cottage is located right in the middle of it all!
Our rental cottage was the original structure on our 5 acre horse property. It's isolated in an grove of 100 foot cedar trees and 250 year old oaks. While we are only a short walk from Victorian Los Olivos and its thirty tasting rooms, our little ranch is quiet and secluded.
