Fenced Yard & Outdoor Bar: Hillside Paicines Home!

Great stay—the host is responsive and kind. Location is beautiful and secluded but the house has great amenities and is very large. Lots of animals in the yard. I didn’t have cell service but the internet worked well. Would stay again.

It was a little hard to find without calling our host. The address led us to a “no trespassing” gate outside a vineyard but our host Karen thankfully responded and gave us verbal instructions on where to go. Written instructions before the check in time might be helpful in the future as I imagine most guests will use Google Maps like we did to get there. The place itself was quite clean save for a few spiders and cobwebs, but the bunnies in the back yard more than made up for that. Some of the appliances (e.g. the fridge) and furniture looked old but worked fine. WiFi also worked fine but it was an unprotected network, so the hosts could consider make that safer. The house was super peaceful and the area was gorgeous. We even got lucky spotting a bobcat!

Found some rodent droppings but otherwise pretty clean and well taken care of with beautiful surroundings. Directions little tricky on google map but Apple Maps seemed to give us the right directions. Definitely number on mailbox helped. Not many restaurants close by but decently close to pinnacles.

We stayed here for three nights in order to visit Pinnacles national Park. This lovely home was 15 minutes from the East entrance. We drove the second day to the West entrance, which was about 1 1/2 hour drive. This home is very private as it is surrounded by open fields. The backyard always had rabbits visiting. We also saw a deer and a herd of cows came grazing one afternoon when we got home. The water was hot. The beds were clean and comfortable, and the Wi-Fi was pretty good. The home is very well stocked with all the amenities you would likely need.
