About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

An aesthetic delight high above Cambria steeped in nature but close to town.

This property is a perfect blend of rural, coastal and luxury. Sitting on a commanding promontory 800 feet above the valleys that surround it, this two bedroom ranch home has epic views in every direction. The folds of the commanding Santa Lucia Mountains back Cinnabar Ranch and the Pacific Ocean sets the western panorama with 40 miles of wild coastline on view.

Located on 80 private acres, there is both room to roam and space to gain from the rest of the world. You could have a perfectly lovely stay without ever leaving the property, but if the allure of the town (Cambria), the coast or Hearst Castle call to you, everything is just a brief drive away. You'll want to be back here for at least one sunset as the location is set up to provide quite a show. At the ranch the night sky is typically deep black and spectacularly full of stars. Enjoy a glass of wine on the patio and reminisce about the day.

A nature walk from the house can be a fine activity. See cows grazing down in the valley, critters roaming the grounds, or hawks and vultures circling overhead. Board game inside or yard game outside? How about a hammock and a good book? For more modern engagements, there is high speed internet and TV. Within a very short drive you can enjoy local wine tasting, horseback riding and so much more. The quaint town of Cambria has a variety of restaurants, unique shops and art galleries. And, of course, the famous Moonstone Beach is yours to explore.

Awesome views in Cambria
Amazing location that met and exceeded expectations. As long as you don’t mind being a few minutes (15 or so) away from the town of Cambria and a few more from the coast. Wonderful place and awesome small home. Perfect for two or a small family. Will almost certainly be back.

Beautiful House, Beautiful Views
The house was beautiful, beds were super comfortable and the kitchen very well stocked. We were there for Christmas and I had no trouble preparing our holiday meal. You are off the main road a bit so if you do not like rural driving be prepared, but if you do it is so worth it. My family had a wonderful stay and if we return to the area would love to stay here again.

Perfect!
This property is an absolute dream! You won’t find a more magical location in Cambria. We needed to get away from the overwhelming hustle bustle of Orange County and cinnabar ranch did the trick. The views are astounding and our only neighbors were the cows and quails. Don’t let the home’s remoteness scare you off. While it feels like you are in the middle of blessed nowhere, the drive to town is maybe only five minutes. While the house is beautiful, well appointed and oh so comfy, the jewel in its crown is that it was almost completely accessible! My mother is legally blind and has mobility issues and aside from one tiny step into the shower, the house was totally flat and a breeze for her to navigate. We couldn’t have had a better time and immediately booked our next stay!

Quiet, secluded and well appointed home overlooking Cambria with ocean views. We enjoyed a relaxing getaway while still being close to activities in Paso Robles, Cayucos and Cambria.

Comfort, coastal views, and seclusion
Secluded, comfortable, and serene. Great kitchen and living room. Comfortable beds, ample privacy if staying with another couple or family members. An overall pleasant stay. The views and privacy make up for any amenities that may be lacking. Cambria and the central coast generally have water restrictions, so low pressure showers are to be expected. Definitely recommend this property if you’re looking for a unique vacation rental.
