Tranquil 3-acre country home close to ocean & lakes - 30+ nights required This property is only available to rent for 30+ nights. By doing so, guests receive a 40% discount off normal nightly rate! The home offers you all necessary amenities to work and/or learn remotely. It is a solar-powered home with AC/heat mini-splits in every room for efficiency. The surrounding property is fully-fenced for a dog to roam securely. Owl Ridge Oasis is aptly named for the resident owls and countless song birds that are attracted to the feeders & baths surrounding this completely renovated ranch home. It is situated in the heart of wine country where its micro-climate offers optimum year-round weather - no chilly, all-day fog as found in the coastal towns or high heat found in the inland cities. Owl Ridge is less than a mile from Arroyo Grande's Village and just minutes further either west or east to the ocean or mountains & lakes. A short drive north through Edna Valley's famous wineries will land you in San Luis Obispo with its trendy restaurants, boutique-style shops & lively college-town atmosphere. Heading south 1.5 hrs, you reach Santa Barbara with its equally fashionable atmosphere.The home offers guests a bucolic, simple, relaxed setting inside & out This cozy "ranchette" with its single-level floor plan, has an interior modern country charm with wood plank flooring throughout, vaulted ceilings, skylights, an abundance of windows with breathtaking views, ceiling fans, and open concept kitchen / living / formal dining room. A wood-burning fireplace and 60" Smart TV round out the main living space. A separate office / family room with Smart TV (and more breathtaking views outdoors) offers a private spot for remote learning / working or streaming your favorite show! Since Owl Ridge Oasis is our primary residence, it is fully-equipped inside & out with most of what you will need to make your stay comfortable and secure. As you would expect when visiting anyone's own home, it also contains some large-size family heirlooms that cannot be moved out during visits. Because these treasures are of sentimental value to us the refundable damage deposit is set higher and the listing clearly states this home & property is not suitable for children under 18 yrs old. We ask guests enjoying their time at Owl Ridge to simply respect our place as if it were their own home!We have two loyal Labs of our own and are fine with guests wanting their own pooch (max. 2) to accompany them to Owl Ridge. Before a final confirmation is possible, age, breed, size and other important factors need to be pre-approved. *** Out of respect to other guests & family members with allergies, cats cannot be considered. Please note the pet fee listed is for ONE dog. If bringing 2 dogs, that fee is doubled. Owl Ridge's simple ranchette-style home is situated on a quiet, short private road. The property is best suited for 1-2 couples, an adult girlfriends' or guys' getaway, a family of adults, or other mature guests who enjoy the rustic peacefulness of country living not found in city or suburban areas. The rural, secluded setting offers an escape from hectic big city life. It's a quiet retreat where you can relax & unwind after a day of adventuring, enhanced even more by the tranquil nights' sleep you expect to get when on vacation! There are 5 necessities travelers look for most -- a clean dwelling, comfy beds, luxurious linens, good coffee and an accommodating host -- all of which you will find at Owl Ridge. The MBR, with its Swedish-designed "Duxiana" king-size bed, also has a small en-suite bathroom and walk-in closet. Large double-hung windows & a French door leading outdoors offer peaceful views of the oak tree canopy outside. The guest BR, also referred to as "Bird's Nest" has its own private bathroom across the hallway. It also has a large multi-pane window & French door leading outdoors to an expansive & inviting outdoor living space. The large bonus room offers an optimal "formal" dining space with antique harvest table & chairs for celebrating a special occasion or holiday in style. The airy, bright open space has been a great spot for previous guests to work remotely, as well as a fun place to socialize around the tall bar table & stools while sipping your complimentary bottle of local wine. If you are looking for real r-e-l-a-x-a-t-i-o-n, the bonus room is also an excellent, private space (can be closed off from rest of home) for a luxurious full-body massage from one of the many experienced local therapists. Afterwards, a visit to one of our area's excellent restaurants or a soothing soak in the outdoor hot tub are perfect ways to end your day...Owl Ridge's outdoor features include a Jacuzzi brand hot tub positioned directly under the open skies with optimal star gazing (NO city light interference!), Weber gas BBQ, table & seating for "al fresco" dining as well as a large fire pit with a few nights of complimentary firewood. The wide front porch facing west & spacious back patio facing east (both with ample seating) provide great spots for a morning coffee or an evening glass of wine while being entertained by the bird activity at the strategically-placed feeders & bird baths. You may even want to grab the binoculars and bird chart to identify what species you are viewing.Surrounding the fenced property are old shady oaks, open fields with natural grassland and expansive, unobstructed views of the countryside hills. All of this is accompanied by the peaceful sounds of nature & bucolic setting found in country living! Guests who decide they do NOT want to use the hot tub during their stay, need to let us know this in advance of booking and we will remove that technician fee from their costs. PLEASE NOTE: depending on the time you stay, the spring grasses (in photos) are lush green during our wet months, but dry out by spring. This area in general is also home to a prolific gopher population! The trade-off for staying with a natural landscape (it is not a finely "manicured" property!) are the daily visits from Nature's little friends -- plentiful song birds, deer, frogs, hawks, quail, rabbits, turkeys... and of course, OWLS!
