Ballard (Solvang), the center of the Santa Ynez Valley was the first town that settled here in the late 1800's!

We feel so fortunate to live here, closely guard its quiet serenity and are grateful for all the beauty, amenities, world class wineries, restaurants, breweries, and shopping this Valley has to offer.
A Beautiful route to the charming towns of Los Olivos, Santa Ynez, Solvang or Buellton takes only 5 to 10 minutes by car or make a loop and enjoy the scenery on our bicycles, provided to you at no charge!

One of the top VRBO's we have ever stayed in. We loved it!! The house is super quiet and in a great location. You can get here in less than an hour from Santa Barbara airport. Incredible views! It was so nice to have a kitchen, washer and dryer. We can't say enough good things about this house. We used to go to Healdsburg for wineries - Solvang area is our new favorite. Thank you so much!

Great location. Very private, yet close to Los Olivos restaurants and wine tastings. The house was really clean. Probably the cleanest, well kept VRBO I’ve ever stayed in. It rained, so we didn’t get a chance to ride the bikes, but we want to go back so we can. Views from the living areas are just beautiful. Great place, very nice host!

Great Location

This property has beautiful views and is a great location to use as a base for wine tasting and dining. While we did not end up doing any cooking it would be great for preparing and cooking or bbqing your own meals. The owner just lives across the street and is very nice and helpful. I highly recommend a stay here.
