Amazing house, even more amazing views

We are six high school friends, women who have traveled together for 20 years. We all agree that this is the best house ever! Breathtaking views in a house where every little detail has been thoughtfully handled: the light switches were all labeled; there were nightlights throughout; several areas with seating that invited conversation; an infinity pool with comfortable loungers. We highly recommend staying here!

Our family had such a wonderful vacation here. The house is amazing, spacious and comfortable. The views are incredible with a panorama from Montana De Oro and Morro Bay up the Los Osos Valley to SLO. The pool and spa are so relaxing and the kitchen is remarkably well-equipped with everything you need including spices and condiments. There's a lot of things to do in the area but there were days we just wanted to relax and enjoy the beauty of the home. Amanda is terrific host and we hope to return next year.

Amazing getaway!

Wow! This property was everything we imagined it would be and more! The pool was warm and wonderful, the rooms were big and spacious, the kitchen was well-stocked....I could go on and on! There were several small families on our trip coming together from all over. We loved the big dining table for our dinners together and enjoyed eating outside on the back patio or by the pool for lunch. It's a long and bumpy road to the top, but it was well worth the drive to have views like we did! We hope we can come back regularly! :)

Christmas at the SkyHouse

Breathtaking 365 degree views from this unique, comfortable home in the clouds. Our family gathering of 7 from across the country had a wonderful, relaxing time. It rained a lot, but we planned on cooking, and the large, beautiful kitchen made that easy. We hiked parts of the property, ventured to a local dog-friendly beach and enjoyed the toasty infinity pool and spa. Amanda, our host, was fantastic. Such wonderful memories!

A Dream Holiday

Our week at the Skyhouse was unparalleled in every way. The house on the very top of the mountain was absolutely remarkable and truly beautiful and the view of the ocean, Morro Rock, the countryside, and the hills were breathtaking. The kitchen was fully stocked with staples and fully-equipped. The beds were very comfortable, the two dining room tables large and lovely and could accommodate all of us. (9 people)....not to mention the infinity pool, completely beyond description. It was an absolute dream. The fog rolling in at night was cinematic. We saw little foxes and beautiful birds and did not want to leave. Our family has rented many vacation houses over the years and the Skyhouse was vastly superior and outstanding in every way. We will return.

This is a fantastic place to stay! The house had more than enough space for my group of 11 family members and we fully took advantage of all the amenities this home has to offer - pool, hot tub, ping pong, billiards, massage chair, grill. It provided a wonderful atmosphere for group dinners and games. You’ll need to contend with a winding dirt road to get there but trust me, the house and the views are worth it!

Perfect escape.

The perfect place for us to escape the madness of 2020. The hilltop location is fantastic and completely private. The house is well equipped and even with six of us didn't feel crowded. Great pool and hot tub. Plenty of places to sit outside and enjoy the amazing sunrise and sunset. Nice kitchen. Everything worked (sadly not the case with some rentals). Easy folks to deal with, good communication. Lots of level changes so not a good place for anybody with mobility issues. I highly reccomend Skyhouse.

Wonderful Getaway for a Staycation!

We had four families that got together at Skyhouse for a mini vacation (isolation vacation because of Covid 19). Such an incredible property from the beautiful pool to the sunrises and sunsets and the views of Morro Bay and surrounding hills! Very well appointed home with everything that we needed for our vacation. Our college students were able to do all of their online classes as well as the adults could handle any work issues remotely which was important during our stay. We enjoyed the cows, rabbits, foxes, horses and all of the wildlife around the property while on bike rides and hikes. The house is unique in that the bedrooms allowed for privacy and the living spaces were so comfortable and easy to hang out and have dinner together. The kitchen was well stocked and easy to store plenty of food in the two refridgerators and pantries. The views were truly stunning through all of the big glass windows. Great central location close to SLO, Morro Bay and Avila Beach yet felt very private. We can't wait to visit again! Thank you for sharing your property with us!

We immediately fell in love with this house. It was so well thought out and just felt like home right away. Stunning views, a fun pool, and a great family area make the Skyhouse simply perfect.

We had a wonderful stay at the Skyhouse in Los Osos. It's isolated but totally worth the drive. The 360 views from the house were breathtaking in the morning, afternoon, and even at night. The stargazing from the pool area is absolutely stunning. The house has many cozy spaces, is very comfortable, and the kitchen is well-stocked with all of the cooking tools you'll need. You can really tell that the owners put a lot of love into their home. Amanda was a great communicator before, during and after our stay. We hope to come back!

Where just being needs no agenda

The aptly named Skyhouse is comfortable open space in and out; sweet kitchen, compost, big dining table; awesome pool/patio, easy hoops (free parking.) Throw in postcard views in every direction, of hills/valleys/trees bay/rock/ocean and it's ridiculous. A wide variety of windows & levels & balconies make for easy-going observation of sky and stars, and of the play of fog and wind. Lots of oaks, evergreens, and brush around, but the patio is also accented nicely with palms and other trees, (against blue, white, or starry night sky) rustling in the ocean breezes. Great reunion after 8 years, all in one spot, with space enough to be comfy. There's plenty to go see and do, if that's what folks would like. House is thoughtfully furnished and lit, and with the view from every window, well, we were all impressed. We feel extremely fortunate to have spent our time together here! My husband and I are always wanting to share the kind of paradise we are so deeply ensconced in, with our families. Now when we want to plan something here, instead of saying, "we just Came to California..." they will say, "can we stay at Skyhouse?" and I will hope that we can. Now they really 'get' the natural beauty inherent in the Central Coast vibe. ♥ Thank you very much!
