The Neighborhood:
Ballard (Solvang), the center of the Santa Ynez Valley was the first town that settled here in the late 1800's!
Surrounded by vineyards, mountains, horse ranches, farms and schoolhouses, you feel as you have arrived in a time warp of sorts where simple pleasures, mossy oaks, grassy fields, and warm sunny days are found.
We feel so fortunate to live here, closely guard its quiet serenity and are grateful for all the beauty, amenities, world class wineries, restaurants, breweries, and shopping this Valley has to offer.
A Beautiful route to the charming towns of Los Olivos, Santa Ynez, Solvang or Buellton takes only 5 to 10 minutes by car or make a loop and enjoy the scenery on our bicycles, provided to you at no charge!

Life in wine country
If you ever wanted to get a sense of what it is like to live in wine country, this is the place. The views are beautiful. It's quiet, private, and a great house - love the open layout with the kitchen and living room. In the late afternoon/sunset time, we would relax on the back patio. There are some nice amenities as well. Highly recommend!

Great central, but quiet location
The property is beautifully located with lovely views of the countryside and right between Solvang and Los Olivos. The house is very well equipped with everything you need to make meals, comfortable beds and well stocked bathrooms. The host was welcoming and we had a wonderful stay. Would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful Property
We celebrated my husband’s 32nd birthday in the Santa Ynez Valley. This was a wonderful place to stay while enjoying wine country. My toddler loved the property and exploring the pond. I would definitely stay here again.

Great location!!!
We drove up the coast for a golf trip with another couple, trying to avoid El Niño rains late December - March. Wouldn't you know we were rained out anyways!! That being said, we spent most of our time enjoying this great house. It was perfect for our group and we enjoyed the cozy living area and fireplace while watching movies. The house was very well equipped and the host was super responsive. The location is great for wineries, restaurants and golf! Thanks for a lovely visit.

Lovely and private
Peaceful with nice views, comfy beds, near to attractions. Pros: location for wineries, Solvang, well-kept, clean, roomy. Kitchen was stocked. Cons: none, really. There's a whole house fan (but we didn't know so used the AC one day). Great communication. We recommend highly.
