Property Information
Cottontail Creek Ranch is 850 acres of rolling hills with
seasonal creeks, fishing ponds and fruit orchards. The
family-owned ranch raises avocados, cattle and
oranges. The 4200 sq. ft. luxury custom built ranch
house has 5 bedrooms, 6 baths, and 2 lofts. Guest
suites are private, featuring king to queen size beds
with private bathrooms (plus an additional bathroom).
You will enjoy phenomenal views of our private valley
and hillsides from every room, the decks, the outdoor
spa and fire pit. The living room has open-beamed
ceilings and a beautiful large local rock fireplace. The
gourmet kitchen (fully stocked), dining room, bar and
den are connected open areas and are accented by
specially milled Monterey pine floors. Every room is
uniquely decorated with antiques and/or hand built
furniture and art work from local craftspeople and
artists. Cottontail Creek Ranch invites you to experience
the wide open spaces of the Central Coast and our
California Western Heritage. Hike to the ridgetop and
take in a sunset with an ocean view overlooking the
entire Estero Bay. From the ridge top you can see Point
Bucheon, Cayucos beaches, Cambria all the way past
Hearst Castle. Or hike to the fishing pond where a
kayak awaits. In actuality, the ranch is just 15 minutes

surfing off the quaint beach town of Cayucos. Visit
Famous Hearst Castle or Big Sur up highway one and
return to your own Private Paradise. Or take a drive into
San Luis Obispo for a fabulous Thursday Farmers
Market. There are farmer's markets 6 days a week in
the neighboring towns of Paso Robles, Cayucos,
Cambria, Templeton, Atascadero, San Luis Obispo,
Arroyo Grande.

    Testimonials
    Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful home
    with us "city slickers". We are all so enamoroued with
    your ranch and your hospitality. We have no idea how
    all those empty wine bottles got into you recycle bin.
    Probably someone snuck in at nite and put them there?
    See you next year!
    God Bless you and keep you,

    Coburns and gang...Yorba Linda

    We had an awesome time at the ranch and are only very
    slowly getting back to our lives. What can we say?
    The hills were beautiful and probably the stars of the
    vacation. We hiked in them. We gazed at them. They
    were the setting for our yoga and kick boxing (!)

    I loved the garden and we ate everything that was ripe:
    strawberries, basil, cabbage, zucchini, summer squash,
    lettuce, chives, rosemary...I think that was it. Of course
    we ate oranges or drank orange juice every day.

    We visited several vineyards and Ted managed to buy
    lots of local wine wherever he found it.
    We hiked in Montana d'Oro and Mt. Bishop and were
    suitably inspired.
    The grill was everything Ted could have wanted. We
    used it almost every night.
    The weather was wonderful -- only the last couple of
    days were really warm, and then we went to Cayucos
    and could not have been happier.
    Regrets? Yes. That we didn't make a fire around the fire
    pit, and we didn't play volleyball or go kayaking.
    Michael was delightful and took us on a ride to get our
    first views of the ocean between the peaks. A nice
    touch: he brought us cookies.

    We could not have been more delighted with our
    vacation and do hope to come back. Ted and I are also
    thinking of where we might want to move when we
    retire and the Central Coast just about blew us away
    (we wouldn't be retiring for a while...but it's fun to
    think about). I also have fantasies about a second
    career (I'm an epidemiologist) in something related to
    horticulture and your orchards and the landscaping
    around the ranch gave me much to think about.

    We are so excited that we happened upon your ranch. It
    was perfect for a weekend away. You have created such
    a lovely retreat. We only wish we could stay
    longer....The fire pit was awesome and flowers and
    surrounding gardens beautiful. The table you set for us
    was so welcoming and made our dinners extra special.
    We'd love to tell more people about it but then it might
    be too booked and we won't be able to stay.
    We hope to see you again very soon.
    god bless

    Thank you again for your incredible hospitality. Our 5th
    annual Minister's Prayer Retreat was exceptional as
    always. We are all so grateful for your generosity and
    kindness to us. Cottontail Creek Ranch is the ideal
    location for all of us--We always come away from here
    refreshed and renewed. Our time this year was very
    fulfilling. We had lots of time for prayer and sharing
    plus plenty of recreation.
    Thank you so much for stopping by on Tuesday
    evening. It was a wonderful treat to get to know both of
    you better and to hear some of the behind the scenes
    stories regarding the Hearst Ranch conservation. We
    have been praying for both of you, especially during
    that process.
