Welcome to Rancho de Humanimals. Relax on ten beautiful acres, located on a quiet country cul-de-sac that is a half-mile long with only 14 other ranches. Fresh, clean, star studded skies with coyotes serenading you at night and often a Black Angus cattle choir in the morning. True quiet country living, without being isolated from civilization.

There are friendly ranch animals galore here, at the ranch:(two alpacas, five goats, four pot-bellied pigs, two miniature horses, two miniature cows), nine dogs(indoor and outdoor) and five indoor cats. You, and/or your kids and/or grand-kids, can walk a goat on a leash, lead a mini-horse to water (but can't make it drink), groom farm animals or dogs and so much more.

You will need a vehicle to do your wine touring and exploring (bring your own, or rent locally). I am located almost equi-distant between Los Angeles and San Francisco (13 miles from Paso Robles, 13 miles from Atascadero, 32 miles from San Luis Obispo, 37 miles from the coast and 50 miles from Hearst Castle).

Bring your bicycles, if you'd like, since gently rolling country roads with exquisite views abound.

My home, here at Rancho de Humanimals, is a two story 3600 sq. ft. house completed at the end of 2005. All modern conveniences are here for your enjoyment. You can even have a parking space, or two, inside the garage for your car.

There are two beautiful guest rooms upstairs. The first has a King size bed and the other has a twin with a pull out twin trundle. The upstairs has a private living room and sitting area (which can also accommodate my giant Queen size aero mattress) with a television and private bathroom (bath and shower). Both rooms share the upstairs bathroom. There is one, equally beautiful bedroom downstairs (twin with pull out twin trundle). The downstairs also has a private bathroom (bath and shower). All rooms are fully furnished and have antique dressers to store your clothes and belongings. Gorgeous unobstructed views of vineyards and open space are seen from all windows in the house.

Please be aware, if both upstairs rooms are booked, you will be sharing the upstairs guest bathroom with new-found friends, long-time friends or relatives.

You have access to the indoor laundry room (for a small additional fee), and full use of the kitchen and all the pots and pans, etc.

Outside, enjoy sitting at one of two charming bistro tables at the front of the house with a glass of wine or cup of coffee, or establish yourself at the large stone patio table that seats six. There is a backyard back patio and a wonderful large propane gas barbecue is available for your cooking pleasure.
