4th of July Getaway

Love going up to the Santa Ynez/Los Olivos area! Such a relaxing quiet place to go with lots of fun wineries to try when we want to go out and about. This is at least our 3rd time spending the 4th of July holiday up there away from all the loud illegal fireworks in our area that terrify our dogs (they love it up there too!).

Excellent week-long escape over my summer semester break

Exactly as advertised. Especially loved the choice of patios permitting sun-chasing (or avoiding) around the house. Plus, in an exceptionally windy spell we appreciated the ability to find sheltered areas. Wifi worked well, which was essential for my working vacation. As an anthropologist, I loved the new Chumash Museum in the Village only open for a month at the time of our visit. As a foodie, I was a hog in heaven spoiled for choice of fine restaurants, and vineyards, in the vicinity. If you have not been, a visit to the reconstructed historic Mission de la Purisima near Lompoc is a must. The period herb and plant garden there is incredible. The only improvement I would suggest is to re-paint the property number in fresh, larger numbers to make it more visible coming from the south. We, myself, friend Judy and my dog Dulce had a wonderful respite. Thanks to hosts Jeanne and Leo for sharing your ranchette with us and we hope to visit again soon.

Perfect casita in the Santa Ynez area!

The casita was perfect. Beautiful decor, comfortable furnishings. Quiet neighborhood and a beautiful property. It was wonderful to wake up to the sun coming over the mountains with the birds singing and the cows and horses surrounding the property. The owners were warm and welcoming and we really enjoyed the homemade bread they left for us as well as the snacks in the kitchen. We loved the beautiful fireplace as well. So relaxing! We will definitely stay here again when we are in the area!

New Year's Getaway

We had a wonderful stay with our two dogs over the New Year's holiday. Jeanne and Leo were great hosts and were friendly and welcoming. Their property has a great location and everything we needed--it was just about perfect for us (absolutely the ONLY thing that was missing was a fenced in yard for the dogs), but they had plenty of room to run around and the property was well back from the street, so it wasn't an issue. We've already booked a return trip since we enjoy the area so much, and this property really does fit our needs so well. We're already looking forward to being back up there later in the year!

The hosts even decorated the casita for Christmas and left us apple cinnamon bread which we found to be very special. The fireplace was a nice touch and we loved having it on for the evenings.

Great Family Getaway

This was the perfect place for a quiet stay after a busy holiday. It was our family of 4 and our Goldendoodle. There was plenty of room in the casita and tons of space for our dog to play outside. It was so peaceful and relaxing. The casita is in a great location. It has a full kitchen with everything you would need but it is a quick drive to restaurants, shopping and wine tasting if you feel like going out. Everything was very clean and the hosts were welcoming.

Our second stay

This was the second stay this year for my wife and I with our Frenchie, and like our first stay, it was worth every penny. We were welcomed with a little welcome note and congratulations balloon for our nuptials which was very sweet. As well as another delicious sweet bread.The property is very peaceful and quiet, and you can see lots of stars on a clear night. The casita was very clean and welcoming as usual, with plenty of extra blankets and towels if you need them. The water pressure in the shower was also amazing. The town is a short few minute drive with plenty of delicious restaurants. I personally highly recommend Dos Carlitos (great food and large portions).In short, we love this place as well as Jeanne and Leo’s hospitality and dog friendly property. We will definitely return for a third time in the future. Thank you again Jeanne and Leo! Look forward to our future visit

We loved our stay at the Glover's Casita. It's really convenient to downtown Santa Ynez and short drive to Los Olivos and Solvang. The drive to any of these locations is beautiful through ranch land and rolling hills. The Casita is idyllic and we'd love to stay there again sometime. It has everything and so nicely decorated.
