Perfect Hideaway

Sheri’s Place was perfect! She’s a friendly host. And the house was clean, neat, inviting, cozy and less than ten minutes from the wedding venue. We couldn’t have asked for more.

Cute cottage

Shari's place was perfect for my husband and I, in town to visit friends for a long weekend. It was clean, well equipped for basic cooking and food prep, and an all around cozy home.

Santa Margarita Gem

Shari’s Place is a very comfortable spacious cottage on a quiet private lane. With many special touches, the cottage has everything needed for cooking, relaxing, and restful sleep. We enjoyed walking the streets of the small friendly town of Santa Margarita and loved the hikes nearby at the Lake and beyond.

Charming Santa Margarita Getaway with Perfect Outdoor Spaces

The house was lovely and perfectly located for my stay. I could easily walk into town for a light meal or wine tasting at Ancient Peaks. It was also ideally situated between San Luis Obispo and Paso Robles. The house itself was beautifully outfitted with everything I needed for a weekend away. I especially enjoyed the two outdoor seating areas where I could sit with my morning coffee and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.

Sweet stay in Santa Margarita

Very cozy with everything we needed during our weekend staying in Santa Margarita. We came to Santa Margarita for a wedding and Shari's place was just a mile away from the venue. The cottage was thoughtfuly decorated and she even left us a couple delicious pastries from a local bakery. The place was spotless, quiet, lots of blankets, towels, and everything in working order. I loved the print outs w/ maps and lists of local restaurants and attractions too. 10/10 will reccomend to anyone who plans to stay in the area!

Great Place In Santa Margarita!

We have family in the area and wanted to find a place close. Shari's place is perfect. Great host, very friendly and the neighborhood was nice and quiet. We enjoyed the cottage and we had everything we needed to settle in. We will be back for sure when we come out to visit and we recommend this place for location, price, and service. Thanks Shari!

Perfect Santa Margarita stay

The location and the interior and the charm of the unit was all Santa Margarita! Open, clean and bright, the unit was very comfortable. Everything we needed, plenty of room, quiet and cute. We were very pleased and will return! The owner was most accommodating and the unit well stocked and supplied.

Great Getaway Weekend

We came up for a weekend to visit our son at SLO and do a little wine tasting in Paso Robles. The location was perfect, just minutes away from both. Nice local restaurants in waking distance if you don’t want to cook. This place is so cute and clean we can’t wait to come back.

Nice, quiet place!

We loved our stay here. The house had all the amenities you could possibly need along with a nice yard. The house is in a quiet little neighborhood, within walking distance to town. Shari was very kind and accommodating and allowed us to bring our dog. We enjoyed every second of this place.

Quiet, charming, comfortable, clean, private, homey!

We really enjoyed staying in Shari’s adorable guest house. What a charming, clean, and comfortable place with separate bedroom, bathroom, living room, kitchen and even a laundry room. We really enjoyed our stay and Shari was a wonderful host. Thank you for having us and we look forward to staying again. Santa Margarita is such a delightful town.

Great little place

This great little house was in a wonderful location. We went down to SLO for a wedding and also down to Arroyo grande for a party. It was great to come back up the hill into a tiny quiet town into a quiet neighborhood. We were able to walk to a lovely breakfast every morning, ancient peaks tasting and restaurant, and a small lovely market. We would stay here again if we’re ever back in the area.

long weekend stay

The property was great, clean, nicely appointed, and had everything we needed for our 4 day stay (we were here for the Cal Poly Family Weekend). We were able to BBQ, cook, relax and hang out inside and outside the property. A close walk to the downtown area, so we were able to browse shops, dine, and enjoy the small town of Santa Margarita. Our hosts were great and helpful. We highly recommend this VRBO and hope we can return someday soon

Wonderful, Clean and Cozy Place!

We enjoyed our stay at Shari’s place. From the moment we booked she was very communicative and responded promptly to all my inquiries! It is a nice and cozy home away from home. We enjoyed the privacy, cleanliness, and comfort of the home. She was gracious to welcome us with a bottle of really good wine. All the amenities listed were available that made for wonderful stay. We used the air fryer and it worked well. The place is nicely decorated, bathroom and bedroom are both spacious. WiFi worked well. Private parking was a plus! Check in and check out was seamless! Washer and dryer super beneficial for longer stays! Overall, great place, centrally located, and 2-3 minutes walk to the Main Street and local restaurants. Thanks for a wonderful stay Shari and Tim. We look forward to staying at your place again.

Five Star Vacation Rental!

My husband and I have stayed in numerous vacation rentals over the years, both in the U.S. and abroad. Never have we seen such attention to detail and comfort as in this charming cottage in the peaceful town of Santa Margarita. As a vacationer, you can literally pack just a toothbrush and a change of clothes, because the house is equipped with everything you need: full-size refrigerator, great stove/oven, fluffy towels aplenty, hairdryer, cooking pans and utensils, binder offering maps and guides for this region, etc. etc. If you can think of it, the owners have already provided it. Also, the house is immaculate and well-maintained, with a lovely little covered patio in the back yard for al fresco dining. We couldn't have asked for anything better and highly recommend this location for an enjoyable getaway.

When it works, it works!!

Goodness, there are just so many positives of Shari’s Place that it’s difficult to write a review! We stayed at Shari’s Place while traveling for a wedding. The cottage was exactly as pictured except Shari had left pastries and wine (from the vineyard we attended the wedding at) for us and our arrival. Shari is an exceptionally thoughtful and intentional host and her place mirrors that. There are so many amenities that make this place feel perfect. We were able to cook for many meals and everything I could have possibly needed was there. The beds are comfortable, the pillows are down, and the cottage is very clean. An aunt of mine who has helped manage luxury rental properties for work stopped by before the wedding. After no more than a few minutes in Shari’s place she exclaimed, “wow when it works, it really does work!”. It truly is what a Vrbo or any vacation rental should be. We would love to return, there is so much to see and do but always so little time. When we do, Shari’s place is the obvious lodging choice.
