Whispering Hills Ranch 5 minutes from Wine Trail

Relax with the whole family at this peaceful place to stay. Stylishly furnished and spacious rolling hills view home with sparkling pool and spa! This beautiful 4 acre ranch vacation rental home is nestled in the heart of Santa Ynez wine country.

If you love to cook, look no further as the huge kitchen is equipped and suited to accommodate the world’s top chefs. The dining room can hold up to 10 friends and family for an intimate dinner party. The ranch style home has been recently upgraded, from brand new furniture and new paint, to the gorgeous new rustic wood floors, brand new chefs kitchen and glass tiled bathrooms. The air conditioning/heating system throughout the house keeps you comfortable anytime of the year. These upgrades will insure a comfortable and relaxing stay. The wood burning fireplace is a must have in the winter. Stay in, go out, Whispering Hills Ranch is close to all the best restaurants in Los Olivos, Santa Ynez and Solvang.
The pool is wide-open to the Western daylight exposure as the beautiful wine country surrounds the property. The foreground highlights the Santa Ynez rolling hills and paints the blue valley sky with its remarkable rolling green hills.

The back patio is furnished with a dining table for 8, and a nearby lounge area with 2 couches, making it an ideal place to enjoy meals with family or friends al fresco style. Once you've enjoyed watching the sunset behind the wine vineyards as the brilliant mixture of colors dissolve in the sky, cuddle up with a glass of wine or jump in the hot tub and watch as the stars above come to life.

Everything was great! we really enjoyed our time there and would like to come back again. Our only complaint was that the hot tub was not very clean (there was an odor emanating from it when we lifted the lid), and the pool was not heated and also a little dirty.

Beautiful house but was disappointed to find used flossers on the floor, old pizza in the fridge, and hair trimmings on all the bathroom counters. Unable to reach the host for help, and on top of all of that, only allotted one roll of toilet paper in each bathroom…. For the whole weekend for 10 people? So cheap! We also found a piece of body piecing jewelry in the bedroom, very evident nothing was wiped down or vacuumed.

Great Location, Lovely Home

Perfect girls getaway to visit Solvang and nearby towns. The house exceeded our expectations. It was much more spacious and well appointed than the photos and site conveyed. We enjoyed leisurely mornings in the home and ventured out to explore the wineries, shops, dining and scenery during the days and evenings. We would definitely return!!

Beautiful property with fully equipped kitchen, good swimming pool. We could enjoy breathtaking views at sunrise as well as sunset as the house has both east and west view spectrums We could also enjoy perfect countryside peace and tranquility. We could hear horses neighing and wolves howling in the night The best part about this property is something that wasnt advertised and nobody could think of...they had solar which fed into chargepoint point and i could charge my EV for free...helped me avoid taking extra stops on my drive back

The property is located close to yummy wineries and has gorgeous views! We had a lovely time wine tasting in the local area. The house was the perfect size for our party of 10. It has a wonderful great room then we never felt like we were on top of each other. The backyard was a great hangout spot to bbq and relax in the pool and or hot tub. I didn’t like that there wasn’t much propane to bbq, so you need to plan ahead and fill the propane tank if you plan on throwing something on the grill. The pool seemed REALLY low on water. Not sure if the pool cleaner hadn’t had the opportunity to fill it but it was concerning. The house offered all appliances and main kitchen essentials. It was also very organized (which I appreciated). Again, it could have been when we visited that the pool maintenance hadn’t been done. Overall, it was a wonderful stay and would recommend it to any group visiting this area! Beautiful home!

Lovely property - great for our group. On our final day, the yard maintenance people showed up and started blowing leaves while we were trying to enjoy our last hours sipping coffee over conversation. Kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils, but the Teflon pots and pans were badly scratched - I was afraid to use them especially on the baby's food.
