Summary: We rented this delightful SLO cottage for a week and could not have been happier. Kurt, the owner, welcomed us warmly, and shared some local knowledge about best beaches, restaurants, etc. If you're there on a Thursday, don't miss the amazing Farmer's Market from 6-9pm! The house is perfectly located, five minutes walk from the center of town, and amazingly well equipped. We cooked for six every evening; the kitchen had EVERYTHING we needed, including serving platters, high-quality cookware, every possible small appliance, copious glasses for wiine etc. etc. The backyard is delightful -- we had dinner outside a couple of nights as we hit the hottest weekend of the year. The bedrooms are very attractive, and the bathrooms include plenty of toiletries. There are loads of extra towels and linens as well. The only thing I feel I should mention in this review is the narrow spiral staircase up to the very large bedroom on the second floor. It is a little tricky to navigate with luggage! We hope to return to this beautifully maintained home!

Summary: Kurt was wonderful and responsive to our every need. The house and property had everything we could ask for. A beautiful back yard to relax in. Everything we needed in the kitchen for cooking. And just a few blocks walk to all of the SLO restaurants for when we didn't cook.

Summary: Kurt was the perfect host. He was a great communicator and left clear notes and instructions both ahead of time via email and and also at the house once we arrived. The entire house has all of the amenities a travel could need. The kitchen was particularly great. We spent tons of time on the back deck and loved getting to see the turtle and fish in the back pond. The house is mere blocks from downtown, but also just a minute or two off the freeway--the best of both worlds. Would definitely rent this spot again!

Summary: This hoouse was perfect for our family stay, well stocked and clean. We felt as if we were staying at a friend's house rather than a rental. Walking distance to everything downtown as well as hiking trails. Kurt is an awesome owner, attentive to your every need if anything arises. We will definitely be back!

Summary: My friends and I are Cal Poly alumni so we were looking for a place where we could spend the weekend together. This was the perfect spot. The house is beautiful and the backyard is huge and perfectly landscaped. We were very comfortable as there were five available beds. The house is a super easy walk to the main streets downtown and all the great restaurants we wanted to visit. I would highly recommend this rental!

Summary: Had the most amazing trip to SLO in the best VRBO I've rented. The big plus of the property is the location..walking distance to all the downtown shops and restaurants. The actual property is impeccable..everything updated and modern, each room is beautifully decorated, the beds are wonderfully comfortable, the backyard is gorgeous and perfect for outdoor dining and relaxing. The upstairs room is like it's own apartment..plenty of room if you needed more space..and a big screen TV upstairs that is perfect for an afternoon of movies and relaxing. We were able to rent movies using the Roku by accessing our Amazon account and it was simple. And Kurt was literally the perfect host..there when you needed him yet inconspicuous at the same time..Would have loved to spend more time with him actually! Thrilled to have found this place and will definitely be back.

Summary: We have rented many VRBO properties. This was by far the very best! The home is charming, comfortable, and utterly updated: from the toaster oven to the washer and dryer to the spectacular kitchen, every appliance and utensil is of absolutely top quality. The beds were incredibly comfortable, the linens and blankets were top drawer, there was plenty of room (we had five people at our peak, and we could have easily had more), and the home was spotlessly clean. The location was perfect. Easy to find -- just a block off of the 101 exit -- and a three-block walk to everything that downtown San Luis Obispo has to offer, which is actually a lot: great restaurants, interesting shops, and three (yes, three!) movie theaters. SLO (it was our first visit) was incredibly relaxing and easy. I haven't traveled enough to know if it's truly the Happiest Place in the USA (SLO's motto), but the people could not possibly have been friendlier. The house is also a great jumping off spot for hikes up the many great mountains (including the "nine sisters" -- formerly volcanic peaks that dot the area) and superb beaches and beach towns like Avila and Morrow Bay, which are only about 15 minutes away. And the Hearst Castle is only an hour north -- and well worth the visit, assuming it's a day that allows a clear view. Kurt was the perfect host: utterly attentive and completely respectful of our privacy. He helped us with whatever need we had, including (unfortunately) having to visit the local urgent care facility. For any question we had, Kurt responded immediately. But he left us alone. Unlike some VRBO rentals, there wasn't a long list of do's and don't's. Simply a great house that he trusted us to treat well. If you want the perfect place for exploring the Central Coast, you couldn't do any better than this rental. We plan to come back ourselves. Thank you, Kurt!

Summary: This is the perfect balance of a very old and lovely house that has been made new. It has everything included: - Wi-Fi (high speed), - Pandora and Netflix / crackle - a kitchen with all the things you would need for a large (15 people plus) group including a large stock pot, crock pot, toaster oven, Cuisinart, confection oven chaffing dishes, etc., - sections: We were there for pleasure but I could image a company renting the house because there are three separate sections that could be used for break out sessions. - Great patio area that has a lovely outdoor couch. - Kurt: Was so helpful and thoughtful. I noticed he had a skateboard and the the next thing I know I am out skating. - Towels / blankets / paper towels / toilet paper all with extra located where you can find them. Can't say enough about the hospitality shown by Kurt.

Summary: Seriously the best VRBO experience yet! Kurt made every effort to ensure that my family and some local guests felt welcomed and taken care of every single day of our stay. The home is immaculate and is lacking for nothing! We had many evenings on the back patio with Thanksgiving crowds and this home, combined with Kurt's passion for making the stay perfect gave us a week to remember :) The kitchen is FULLY stocked (who has chafing dishes when you need them? Kurt!) The patio is seriously right out of a magazine and the beds made me want to not come home to mine! Thank you Kurt for welcoming my family with open arms. The care and love you put in to your home is evident at every turn. Cannot WAIT to come back again!

Summary: The Mission Orchard Bungalow was the ideal place to call home for our family wedding weekend in SLO. We needed a retreat for our family of 3, my sister and her husband, and our 89 year old father, that would be comfortable for us all, and we could not have made a better choice. The interior of the home was beautifully appointed, warm and inviting; and the yard was a paradise for relaxation. Kurt was an attentive charming host who took the time to make sure our stay was nothing less than perfect.
