We booked the Shire for our celebration of grad weekend- a dual graduation in our family, with one of the grads from Cal Poly SLO. This was a great location- a quick drive from campus, but in the peace and quiet away from hustle bustle. We had a family barbecue dinner delivered from Jack's Bar and Grill- and enjoyed both the large indoor (air conditioned) dining room and the outside picnic table under the lovely string lights. The hot tub at sunset, and under the starry night was brilliant. The house was immaculate and had everything we needed for celebrating and savoring. Don't think I have ever had a rental home that provided both ground coffee and pods- more than enough for our stay (though we brought our own). Beds were all great- overhead fans were tremendous and all had remotes- and all the bed rooms had the best blackout shades for those late sleepers.My "littles" are way too big for the Little Shire, but we couldn't help but peek- soooo cute and would be phenom for kids.The fire pit and barbecue were well used as well- both clean and in great working condition. They even had a wireless JBL speaker charged, ready for our bluetooth music choices. Does it get better than Steely Dan and Sauvignon Blanc at the fire pit while watching the bunnies scamper nearby? It was all the right vibes for a family getaway and celebration. And our grad photos were awesome!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house on the hill served as a peaceful retreat for my family after a day of wine tasting in Paso. We especially appreciated the generous stock of really good coffee! The house is super clean, the kitchen is fully stocked with kitchen ware, towels, bedding, soap, TP, paper towels, etc. The only thing that would make it perfect, would be to have king size beds in the bedrooms upstairs. The beds in the upstairs bedrooms seem small for a queen size and might even be full size, making sleep a bit difficult for the two couples who slept on them. I slept like a baby in one of the downstairs bedrooms :). Thank you!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We absolutely loved everything about this house! It was spotless and so charmingly decorated. There was more than enough space for our group of seven friends to relax and enjoy a much-needed escape for three nights and four days. We made the most of our stay—playing games, soaking in the jacuzzi, gathering around the fire pit, cooking together, wine tasting, exploring Tin City, and capturing plenty of fun photos. It was truly an unforgettable experience.

The Shire is a beautiful place to gather with family, or friends. Communication with the host was great. Everything was outlined clearly. The house is very spacious and clean. The kitchen was well stocked. The beds were very comfortable. There was no noise at night - peaceful rest. I would definitely rent this house again.Douglas
