However, the Barn Loft location is separate and private, all windows and access points facing away from our residence. Located just down the road to SLO's best wineries / vineyards, and/or a stone's throw the other way in to the heart of downtown SLO. If you are a Cal Poly family, the campus is a short 3 mile drive. Guests will have access to the Barn Loft, deck space, Barn Yard and driveway area only. The space is designed to face away from the main house + is separate from the main living space of the homeowners, who use the rest of the property for their full-time residence and occasionally rent it out as well. The Barn Loft feels very private! Guests have 2 free parking spaces directly in front of the barn, steps away from the Loft access. We live in a beautiful neighborhood with sprawling properties - it's a great place for a leisurely stroll! Comfortable accommodations for 4 (2 queen beds), living space with plenty of comfy seating, a full kitchen, and a beautiful bathroom with laundry facilities. Vaulted ceilings, tons of natural light, newly built... you won't want to leave! Uber is widely used in this area - a great option to get here from the airport (just a couple miles away) or around town. If you have your own transportation, wineries, hiking + downtown are all within a couple miles. Several beach options are nearby: Avila Beach (7 miles), Pismo Beach (8 miles), Morro Bay (14 miles), Montana de Oro (14 miles) and San Simeon (41 miles). While we are in the country, we are on the city line and directly across the street is a newer neighborhood. The main road in front of the Barn home is a 2 lane road but does get a little busier during morning and evening commute hours. If noise sensitivity is an issue for you, we provide a white noise machine for our guests in each bedroom. Only a few of our hundreds of guests have made small comments on the road noise, it really doesn't seem to bother the vast majority of people. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table ### Entertainment - Games - TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Office ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - One pet total ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near the sea ### Things to do - Bicycle parking - Bicycle storage ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Bicycle parking - Bicycle storage - Double-glazed windows - Recycling - Unit size: 600 square feet - Water-efficient showers - Water-efficient toilets ## Similar properties ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/35000000/34340000/34330900/34330854/6ebe4969.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Contemporary Boutique Bungalow with Backyard San Luis Obispo - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 9.8 Exceptional 64 reviews £273 includes taxes & fees 5 Nov - 6 Nov [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-05&endDate=2025-11-06&selected=34330854&PinnedHotelID=34330854&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/108000000/107720000/107714400/107714347/c364b7e7.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Layzie Dayzie House | Downtown San Luis Obispo, CA | Near Beach & Trails Lower Higuera - Kitchen - Pet-friendly - Free WiFi - Air conditioning 10 Exceptional 23 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-24&endDate=2025-10-25&selected=107714347&PinnedHotelID=107714347&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/92000000/91240000/91240000/91239913/f38884c5.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Comfortable 2-Bedroom SLO bungalow house San Luis Obispo - Kitchen - Washer - Pet-friendly - Free WiFi 9.4 Exceptional 8 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-24&endDate=2025-10-25&selected=91239913&PinnedHotelID=91239913&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/79000000/78140000/78133800/78133720/8bbec8be.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 2 bedroom coastal home in San Luis Obispo San Luis Obispo - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 7.4 Good 3 reviews £246 includes taxes & fees 13 Oct - 14 Oct [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-13&endDate=2025-10-14&selected=78133720&PinnedHotelID=78133720&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/66000000/65370000/65363900/65363890/1b72489c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Black Barn Ranch 2.5 Acres W/Pool Near Downtown San Luis Obispo - Pool - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer 10 Exceptional 8 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-24&endDate=2025-10-25&selected=65363890&PinnedHotelID=65363890&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/35000000/34170000/34167200/34167132/27fe69c4.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### DeSolina Cottage in the middle of Edna Valley Wine Country.
