About this property

This is a traveler's haven

This beautiful home will welcome either the solo traveler or families, we are ready for you! Enjoy the deck while you relax by the chimanea, or get into the spa for total relaxation! The house has three bedrooms, and the upstairs room can also has a queen sized bed. There is a very comfortable Murphy bed in the fireplace room. The playroom is great for kids! I recently added an electric fireplace/heater to the master bedroom, so lovely to wake up and look out at the mountain while you are comfy and warm in bed... I love sharing my home with others, I know that you will love it too!

We had a great stay for a family reunion. The view from the dining room and the large deck is incredible. It is also a birdwatchers paradise. The owner had a pair of binoculars and a local bird guide which was a nice touch. We will definitely be back.

We had a magical time at Leslie’s Lake Home! Our Cal poly friend and family reunion could not have been at a more perfect location central to everything SLO. The best part was the incredible views from the deck of the lake and mountains complete with cattle and horses grazing, where we pretty much spent most of our time relaxing with coffee in the mornings, or watching the glow of the sunset off the lake. Agree with others it’s a birder paradise!

Staying on the lake was magical! We spent most of our time just relaxing on the deck. Ate in for breakfast and dinner. Kitchen great for cooking! Dining room perfect for 8-10 folks. 5 separate sleeping areas - all good beds. Parking in driveway for 3 and street 1-2 more. Leslie reached out to us that week to set up the arrival. All smooth and easy. Ping pong in the garage was well fun too.
