The space
This has been a local favorite studio ("The Tree House") in the oaks for our family and friends for many years. Walk four blocks to the beach and partake in the Friday Night Fisherman and Farmer's Market (4 to 8 pm, April through September) for plenty of food, happy taverns, wine tasting, entertainment, and dancing at the beach. Private deck and secure covered carport parking. The main bedroom has a queen bed, kitchenette, and bathroom. The entrance room has a single bed/sitting spot and a TV with a privacy curtain between the two rooms. The bathroom is small, especially the shower, but larger than an RV bathroom. Close by great restaurants, happy taverns, and wine tasting, the best beach on the coast, active marine life (sea otters, harbor seals, and sea lions) up close and personal, with several scenic hiking/walking trails at all levels of difficulty nearby. The host will have suggestions with hand-drawn maps for great things to do and visit from Monterey to Santa Barbara that only locals know about if interested. There are 34 stairs to climb. We also have our home, "Mid-Century Design close to downtown" in San Luis Obispo with Airbnb and our new listing "Avila Beach amongst the oaks, Ocean 5-minute walk". The creek is across a street which on weekends can be busy with traffic. The Treehouse is on a steep slope with a Tri-plex above that includes another Airbnb rental and a duplex below with very minimal interaction with the tenants.

Guest access
You will be given a key and a showing of the Tree House upon arrival. You will just need to leave the key on the table and turn off all electricity when you depart. There are 34 stairs to climb at the private entrance which are well lighted with motion sensors at night. The way to the beach is along Avila Beach Dr. which can be busy especially during the summer or across the creek along the golf course. Relax on your private deck under the Live Oaks.

Other things to note
Rent kayak/paddle board at the third pier along with zodiac and sailing tours of the Bay which include whale watching. Visit Port San Luis Lighthouse, especially by kayak, and take advantage of what our neat beach town has to offer plus maybe a round of golf and watch the abundant seals, sea otters, and sea lions up close and personable at the Port San Luis pier, walk the Bob Jones Trail and along the long beach front. Again, this is an official SLO County vacation rental (6003730) and the Transient Occupancy & Tourist Bureau Taxes (13.5%) will be collected by Airbnb and passed onto the County but we have compensated you by reducing our base price. So no change in the total price.

Neighborhood highlights

Avila Beach is a gem and the most protected beach in the area with its southern facing beach protecting it from the prevailing North/West wind & fog. Friday night's Fisherman and Farmer's market (Spring to Fall) is very popular and is open 4 to 8 pm - closed for 2021. A trip via the kayaks or trolley to the Old San Luis Lighthouse is a must. Many shops and restaurants can be found on the beachfront and the third pier.
