My son and daughter and I spent a week at the Shady Oak VRBO earlier this month (November). The apartment was very comfortable and we all felt the word “Cozy” in the apartment description on the website was very fitting. We liked the fact that it was close to the little town of Santa Ynez where we spent several mornings wandering around and getting to know the local flavor. You have to stop by the Roasted Bean Coffee House where the locals all gather to gossip about events taking place in the Santa Ynez Valley. Shady Oak vacation owners (John and Susan Fowler)were very good hosts and provided us with all the information we requested regarding what sites to see (Miniature horse farm, Cachuma Lake, Wineries) and also with our requests for specific food type restraunts in the area. The Big Oak tree which literally is right outside the front door of the apartment made my kids feel like they were staying in a tree fort. Of course, I appreciated that it also had all the amenities of a nice vacation rental. I would highly recommend Shady Oak to those of you who are budget conscious. The Santa Ynez Valley allows for a break in one's hectic life and the opportunity to experience the peace and tranquility it has to offer.
