Peaceful spacious Spanish style Casita in Wine Country

Peaceful spacious Spanish style Casita in Wine Country

10/10 Excellent
"The location was a nice 12 min drive to Solvang and a 5 min drive to the Chumash casino. Scenery was excellent, quiet and very peaceful. The casita was large and spacious. The kitchen was fully equipped. The tv had plenty of streaming services. Just a heads up, look out for spiders. We used the queen sofa bed which is located in the living room and the windows there don’t have curtains since it’s on private land."
