This is such a cute house and so ideally located, walking distance to downtown! I stayed with my family and our dogs for a weekend, and it was delightful. The yard was perfect for my dogs to wander and sniff. My only feedback is that while I love a charming old house, I don't love old furniture for sitting and sleeping. The beds were creaky, and the living room furniture didn't quite support 6 people hanging out comfortably. Otherwise, it was fantastic and I would definitely stay there again.

Great stay in a lovely home

Our family of five adults had a wonderful weekend in this lovely home. Very well equipped and accurate listing. We enjoyed the outdoor spaces after Sensorio and wine tasting and dinner downtown. A good neighborhood for a morning walk. Highly recommend!

Incredible house!!

The Poe House is a beautiful historical home which is exactly like the photos. A wonderful place to stay for our family including 2 adult children and their significant others. The house, the yard, fire pit, wrap around porch —perfect! And the management company is very accommodating

Memorial Day Getaway

The Poe house was a cute little "historic" home. The kitchen was stocked with all the essentials which was great. We have tall people in our family, so the beds were a little small but still comfortable. The neighborhood was very quiet and peaceful. We saw deer in the backyard! So cool! This location is close to town. I would recommend this place.

We had 3 couples staying at the Poe House for a friend’s weekend and it was a perfect fit for what we needed! We could walk downtown, there were pretty outdoor areas to hang out and it was a short drive to the wineries. Would definitely stay here again!

Quaint home and neighborhood

Overall lovely time in Paso. Home and neighborhood is cute and walkable into town - a major plus but home is quite old with some updates in bathrooms and kitchen but rugs and furniture in desperate need of deep cleaning or replacing.

Relaxing weekend in Paso Robles

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Poe House was comfortable and had plenty of room for four adults and one dog. The kitchen was well appointed with all the necessary tools to put together morning breakfast before our afternoon of wine tasting. Located in a lovely and quiet neighborhood, perfect for morning walks and close to downtown shops and restaurants. The only critique I could offer, a couple more side tables in the living room would be nice. Would definitely recommend and would rent again.

Wonderful VRBO

Adorable house in a great location. Great communication from host. All the amenities you’d want (hooray for fluffy towels and other nice touches). Wish we’d booked a longer stay so we could use the cozy fire pit. Walking distance to nice restaurants but remote enough that we had deer in the front yard.
