It started with climbing a dark staircase with old shag like carpet that smelled weird. Staff was completely off property before we had our bags out of the car at 2:00pm. Literally, bags weren't even out of the car before everyone disappeared. No cell signal. Had to LEAVE property to call owner to ask basic check-in questions. Ended up with a bath towel that once it was damp it smelled like cat pee. No views whatsoever. Outdoor furniture grossly dirty or rickety or without pads. I could go on and on. Way way way overpriced.

I've long wanted to visit The Fableist Wine tasting room in Paso. We came in early, midweek, and…read moretasted from the standard tasting menu -- approximately 5 wines. I really didn't care for any of them -- most of them were not the mainstream varietals - they were a bit too funky/ different for my tastes. I love the branding, but felt to make a connection here with the wines. Super cute tasting room full of the unique branding that makes this wine a fun wine. Next time, I'd come back and picnic under the trees and buy a few bottles of their standard wines for $25. I didn't really care for the funkier wines served in the wine tasting room. Perhaps that's me, perhaps you'll enjoy it.

But for us it filled the bill with plenty of space easy to use kitchen area and a lot of happy people. The prices were reasonable for rental and what can I say I'd use it again if I was throwing a big party. Give it a run by and review the place and see what you think.

The outdoor space where the live music was, was absolutely stunning & perfect for lounging on their chairs with wine. The food truck brought in, was tasty.

I would have taken more pictures, but i purposely left my iPhone in the AirBnb so that I could truly be present for this event! Awesome 180 degree breathtaking views.

The outdoor restrooms were clean, air conditioned, and well supplied. The only downside to the event was that it was really hot.

Checked in for a girls wine weekend- we stay for four nights…read more The location of the property it approximately 5 miles from Paso Robles proper. It is conveniently close to all the wineries in the area. The property is newly built, opening in Fall of 2025. Free electric vehicle hook up also! Rooms are spacious, beds are comfortable. We used the pool/hot tub. I peeped in the exercise room plenty of activities for all. We didn't dine at the property, but the bar was fully stocked and I did enjoy a delicious Old Fashion one evening. My only complaint: as we stayed 4 nights there was no room cleaning and we ran out of towels and toilet paper. We were informed by staff rooms were cleaned every 3 days. Our room was never straightened or checked on and when we ran out of toilet paper I was informed by staff: "please come to the front desk as I am the only person on duty presently." I believe that this hotel would benefit by placing a placard regarding the checks on rooms, refill on towels/toilet paper and emptying of trash cans so guests are aware of the situation. Overall, we enjoyed our visit & would likely stay here again!

Update: Unfortunately, my experience changed after my original stay…read more When I later tried to extend my stay, I was told they could not honor it. At the time, I assumed they may have been overbooked and did not think much of it. However, when I returned at a later date and tried to use my rewards points for another stay, I was refused. The manager was not there, but I was told I owed money and had supposedly left the room a mess. This was the first I had heard of any issue. I was never notified, billed, or given any explanation. I tried to follow up so I could better understand what happened and pay any legitimate outstanding balance, but I received no clear answers, no examples, and no documentation. To make matters worse, my rewards points were still kept, which was especially frustrating because I had spent a significant amount staying there for multiple days while transitioning before moving out of state. Those points would have been helpful during my cross-country trip at other Choice Hotels. I understand that a business can refuse service, and I am not disputing that. My issue is the way it was handled. I was not notified ahead of time, I was not given documentation, and I was not given a clear explanation or opportunity to resolve whatever issue they claimed existed. I arrived expecting to use my rewards points for a stay, only to be turned away around 9 p.m. with nowhere lined up to go. That put me in a stressful and embarrassing position, especially since this could have been communicated before I arrived. To this day, I still do not recall leaving the room in poor condition. I was careful during my stay, and although I paid to have my dog there, I did not even bring him into the room most days. My card was on file, and I made a point to check in with the front desk to confirm everything was squared away. I also had some issues with the service during my stay. Housekeeping was inconsistent and rarely came by. When they did, items were often only partially restocked -- for example, I might receive one coffee pod but no creamers or sugar, or toilet paper would be replaced but not tissues. It was not a huge issue at the time, but looking back, it adds to the overall concern about communication and service standards. Being turned away without prior notice, proof, or clear communication was embarrassing and upsetting. I originally loved this hotel because the location was perfect for me -- close to family, convenient, and comfortable -- but the way this situation was handled completely changed my impression. I have never had anything like this happen at a hotel before, and it was an awful experience.

I think my wife was happy with the experience. We were able to have a live band in the carriage house, and they have lots of connections with local caterers and bar services, so planning was pretty simple. Staff helped me put things together with check ins six months ahead of time and a few months out. They help you troubleshoot things like sound and table arrangement. They've got years of experience putting on weddings, and it shows. That alone was comforting.

If I could give less than 1 star, I would. We attended a family wedding there in April. Everything…read moreabout it was horrible! It was pouring rain that day. The venue staff put together cheap, wobbly tents together that leaked on guests & the tables. The bride had to walk down a dirt/muddy path to the ceremony site. Staff should've been covering her, especially since they had her wait on the other side of the gate before entering the ceremony site for over 15 min. The ceremony site wasn't covered at all! All guests, wedding party, bride & groom were getting soaked! If you wanted something from the bar, you had to wait in the rain. All the reception chairs were at the ceremony site. Staff started bringing them over, some staff started wiping them off since they were all wet but shortly gave up cleaning them off then told guests to get their own chairs out of the back of the p/u that was parked by the tent. The spacing for tables & chairs was a joke. Everyone was crammed in like sardines, some people couldn't even sit down due to lack of space! It was a wet, cold and windy day and NO HEATERS ANYWHERE! Everyone had to walk in the rain to go get their plate of food that was getting wet and was already very cold. Completely unappealing! They had 2 porta-potty's for the women. Unfortunately, at the very beginning of the wedding, one stall the door wouldn't lock, the other stall wouldn't flush! The wedding coordinator should try working in a different profession if this is how she handles situations! The venue staff should be ashamed of themselves! I ended up with pneumonia, and I know others who got sick from attending this wedding, which I now call a "Shit Show Wedding"! I hope whoever paid for this wedding received a hefty refund!!! We hope the bride & groom live a long & happy life together, in spite of how this venue treated them & their guests! We recently attended another family wedding somewhere else, and it was absolutely wonderful seeing how well the venue staff took care of the bride & groom and all the guests! Everything about it was wonderful!
