Artist Vineyard Cottage - coastal influence in the heart of Wine Country!

Amazing location and breathtaking views! Nestled in the coastal foothills just off California Scenic Hwy 46 West - exactly halfway between the quaint artist village of Cambria (10 min) and gateway to the spectacular Paso Robles/Templeton wine region (just outside your door).

Newly remodeled cottage from the ground up. Enjoy top of the line furnishings, amenities and touches that one would expect from an artist. The large master bedroom is a Southeast Asian retreat with unique pieces from Nepal and Thailand. The queen bedroom takes you back to early California. The kitchen is fully stocked and has granite counter tops and stainless steel appliances. Relax in privacy on the patio overlooking a vast farming valley below or tuck yourselves back in the shade of the oaks and bay trees off the rear patio.

PerfectionPhotos can’t capture the beauty and serenity of the Artist’s Cottage. We’ve stayed in quite a number of vacation homes and this is truly a standout. The driveway runs up through a vineyard to the cozy and well appointed cottage with a million dollar view, and plenty of outdoor space to enjoy it all.Templeton wine trail, SLO, Paso Robles and all the amazing coastal towns at your fingertips, and an amazing private retreat to come home to.Wonderful hosts as well.

Perfect Getaway

My wife and I stayed at the artist retreat in Templeton to celebrate our 15th wedding anniversary, and our experience far exceeded our expectations.The cottage was charming and well-stocked, and the fresh flower bouquet was an unexpected touch, making it feel like a true home away from home.The location and views were simply incredible. We spent much of our time on the front porch, soaking in the beautiful scenery, fresh air, and watching the wildlife.It was the perfect getaway for us as a couple—a peaceful escape from the daily grind, crowds, and traffic.We absolutely loved our stay!

This was our second visit to the cottage, though, unfortunately, we could only stay for three days. We thoroughly enjoyed the peace and tranquility of the area. This property is, without a doubt, one of the best VRBOs we’ve ever stayed in. The cottage is thoughtfully stocked with everything you could possibly need!

Weekend Getaway in Cozy Mountain Wine Country

My friend and I had been hearing about Paso for the last couple of years, and took the chance to enjoy a long weekend. My mother decided to join last minute - which was a great addition. The property is clearly cared for well and the hosts are active in communication throughout the stay. Conveniently located to several wineries and wonderful scenic views, this is a great space and we’ve already started talking about our next visit.

This property is in an ideal location to get away. This is my second time here and I will return in the future. The house is immaculately clean. The furnishings are very impressively Zen. Comfortable beds. Beautiful views in every direction. Brand new grill and plenty of seating outdoors to enjoy the views. Make sure to schedule in time just to enjoy the house and unwind.

Beautiful Cottage

We stayed for 4 nights in September 2023. The cottage is wonderfully located in a peaceful country location and offers spacious accommodation and a comfy bed. From this location we visited Cambria and the Pacific Coast Highway northwards, Paso Robles and San Luis Obispo. Moonstone Beach is particularly recommended. This time around we did not do wine tastings but the choice of vineyards available is huge. We recommend this cottage and would definitely stay again, if in the area.

A Wonderful Wine Country Escape Near Paso Robles

My wife and I recently enjoyed a mini-honeymoon at the Artist Vineyard Cottage and had a fantastic time. The private cottage is on a secluded hilltop overlooking the Santa Lucia mountain range and the gorgeous green bucolic valley below. The views are spectacular. If you're looking for a secluded, calm, and relaxing retreat in the Paso Robles wine country, this is the place!The cottage is about twenty minutes outside the hustle and bustle of central Paso Robles, but just a few minutes from several exceptional wineries. The cottage is also about 30-45 minutes from Cambria and Hearst Castle, and there are several options for day trips and exploration of California's Central Coast.The cottage was tastefully decorated and furnished with everything you could need for a romantic and relaxing stay. Lisa and Randy, the property owners, were warm, welcoming, and very attentive.The Artist Vineyard Cottage comes with our highest recommendation, and we look forward to visiting it again soon.

Just wow =)

What a great place, one of the rare cases it turns out to be better than the pictures. Communication with Lisa was great and she provided a nice little guide with recommendations since it was our first time in the area, which we ended up following almost everything =). The cottage is great, equipped with everything you need and the views are awesome. We got rain and sun and it is great either way. You almost don't want to leave the cottage to explore the area. Since this was our first time in the region we did went to spend the day out but making sure to get the sunset at the cottage, highly recommended. Next time will definitely spend some days just enjoying the cottage.
