Great stay with friends
Six of us (three couples) had a wonderful long weekend here. The views a stunning and the accommodations were comfortable and fun. We took advantage of the great kitchen, the lounge area, the patio and even the bocce ball court. Speedy the tortoise added a fun element as well. It was our home base foe a mix of hanging out, wine tasting, golf, and some amazing dinners in Paso. Highly recommended! - Anonymous, San Mateo, CA

Great Place for Rest and Relaxation
Great place! Good size rooms and really comfortable beds. We had 2 kids and loved feeding Speedy as well and there were so many board games. Kitchen has most supplies (although bring your own cooking oil, salt, and pepper). Also the grill hasn't been cleaned in years so that was a surprise. Beautiful views all around. Definitely recommend. - Becky M., Tustin, CA

Response from Paso Robles Vacation Rentals®
Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay, overall! Thanks for alerting us about the salt, pepper and olive oil supplies. We do in fact provide all of those supplies in the panty, along with just about every other spice you may need. However, it appears that those particular supplies were not put back in the proper place (the appropriately labeled bins that are in the panty), which is likely why you were not able to find them. We've remedied that. We complete a thorough check of the house in between each guest stay, including cleaning the grill, which got missed before your stay. Unfortunately, it sounds like the guest prior to your arrival did a number on the grill! Our sincerest apologies for the inconvenience. We would love to welcome you back in the future!
360 degree's of spectacular
We chose "top of the hill" for our anniversary getaway and it was perfect! Not only the ease and friendliness of working with Beth from PRVR, and also Candi the property owner whom it was lovely to meet briefly while on our stay. The house and view are spectacular, quite secluded relaxing and fun bonus with the bocce court. We were completely comfortable, no COVID concerns because the house was spotless and they took great care to even have sanitizer available to us to use while there. In all the rental homes my wife and I have stayed at this by far win's the best pantry, a nice surprise bonus as my wife loves to cook we found every spice needed and no want for amenities at all. The location is north but not to far from wineries and dining, however we chose to cook in each night of our stay because we enjoyed the house so much and the views changed each day with the various weather conditions, sun rises and sets! We look forward to a return visit hopefully in the fall, and will look forward to seeing "Speedy" again too. Cheers to all that stay at "top of the hill"! Deb & John D. - John D., Oceanside, CA

“Top of the Hill” is top notch
Top of the Hill was wonderful and everything we dreamt it to be. Very clean and well kept, perfect layout, with plenty of amenities and fun to be had. And don’t forget the views!!
The owners were great at communicating and responding to any questions we had, and were even kind enough to mail back a few forgotten items. Definitely hoping to go back for a visit again in the future! Would highly recommend booking a stay at Top of the Hill! - Kathryn V., Sheboygan, WI

Views of a lifetime
Simply put: the 360-degree views from the house are exquisite. The house is perfect for a weekend getaway but really even a holiday weekend wasn't enough. We wanted more time there! The house is very private and comes with everything you need. Candi is super responsive to any questions or issues. I brought my road bike and had an awesome ride on the country roads of San Miguel. The wineries are all around you and are some of my favorite because most are smaller, more intimate experiences. We will be back! - Andrew K., Los angeles, CA

Great outdoor experience
Excellent sunrise and sunset views. Backyard is huge allowing lot of activities. Fire pit with star gazing in the night was our favorite. Kids had lot of games to play including mini soccer court and basketball in garage! Speedy (turtle) was kids favorite. Highly recommend is you are a outdoor nature loving person. Only downside is property is a bit isolated. - Anonymous, Fresno,

Peaceful House on Top of the Hill
We had a great time in Paso Robles for Father’s Day weekend. The drive up to the top of the hill was a bit far, but we love the peacefulness and quietness. The house was perfect for two family and gave us a warm feeling. We love watching the sunset in the back of the house while having BBQ for dinner. It was memorizing seeing the beautiful sky! - MARIA L., San Francisco, California

Bachelorette Weekend at Top of the Hill
We were shocked at how beautiful this house really was. Sometimes pictures do a really good job of deceiving renters but these don't even do the place justice. The sunsets are unbelievable and we even got up early to watch the sunrise too. The house is so well maintained and clean you really feel at home. I did not want to leave! I have already suggested we come back for a couple's retreat with my (almost) husband and some friends and have recommended family reunions be here. It's so quiet and peaceful; it's the perfect getaway. I'm a city girl working the Silicon Valley tech life and I forgot how many stars there are in the sky; you could see to heaven from this house. I didn't want to leave! The only downside is it's a little ways from town, but we had a wine tour pick us up and drop us back off. - Lauren L., Newark, California

Fantastic place literally at the top of the hill
We stayed here over the new year (5 friends) and had a fabulous time. The house is spacious and well laid out. Kitchen/dining room/living room is open space so communal cooking is fun (and the kitchen is stocked with everything you'd need to cook -- we cooked elaborate meals for 5). Bedrooms are pretty private (FYI, there were no curtains or blinds on the master bedroom's windows when we stayed there, so bring an eye mask if you like to sleep in). There are enough bathrooms for a large group: one very nice bathroom (with awesome soaking tub) off the master bedrooms, two other bathrooms off the other wing with the other three bedrooms. The back patio is AMAZING. Views for miles, great fire pit for lounging. It's windy (as another commenter said) but absolutely possible to spend lots of time out there. We had brunch out back at the huge communal table in early January. Paso Robles is a 20-minute drive. All in all, fantastic place. - Maya F., Oakland, CA

Hi Maya, Thanks so much for your great feedback and are delighted how much you enjoyed your time at Top of the Hill in the Paso Robles area. Blinds have recently been added to the master bedroom and bathroom, so your feedback had a nice impact. We look forward to welcoming you back to Top of the Hill! Beth, Paso Robles Vacation Rentals
Top of the Hill is Out of This World!
Great VRBO! This is an unusual VRBO in that it has EVERYTHING you could possibly need. The kitchen, pantry, bedrooms, bathrooms are well stocked and maintained. The kitchen was like working in your own - you could host Thanksgiving dinner and not have to bring anything with you. The views are amazing and the fire pit was great to sit around in the evening with friends. We had 4 couples and everyone had plenty of space. I just wish the master bath had some type of shades for privacy, since we had so many people walking around. But other than that - AWESOME VRBO! Will return next year. Thank you! - Anonymous, NORFOLK, VA

Hi Gael, Happy to hear you enjoyed your time at Top of the Hill in the Paso Robles area so thoroughly! We wanted to circle back around and let you know that blinds have recently been added to the master bedroom and bathroom, for complete privacy and comfort. Just be sure not to miss out on those incredible views from the large windows throughout the home! Thanks, Beth, Paso Robles Vacation Rentals
Best Vacation Ever!
Everything about this house was as described and more! From the layout of the rooms, to the fact that the house had every single thing you could ever want and need, we fell in love. I've already told my friends about this house for any travel to the Paso Robles area. I am a 3-hour drive away and know I'll be back! Thanks for so many wonderful memories!! - Susan L., San Carlos, CA

AWESOME place to stay with a few minor privacy issues
This home is incredible! You are literally on top of a hill overlooking rolling hills and vineyards in every direction! The home is very clean, spacious, modern, and nicely decorated. The pantry is well stocked (although we brought everything we needed.) My 3 yr son had a blast as he finally got to run wild in the backyard.
**Please note that there's a couple of PRIVACY ISSUES to be aware of...
1. There is a security camera inside the home that points at the front door. The problem is that this camera is microphone enabled. (I happen to own the exact camera.) This is very concerning as you can listen (or speak) through the camera. The owners should just mount a camera on the outside of the front door OR tell guests to unplug the camera upon entry.
2. We had an unannounced visit from the owner or groundskeeper who was in the backyard watering shrubs. For women like my girlfriend who like to walk around the house partially clothed, this caused quite a stir! There are lots of windows in the house some of which do not have curtains. (Kitchen, dining room, master bathroom have no curtains!) It's pitch black outside at night due to how isolated this location is.
Not to mention we had the living room curtains wide open as it was a beautiful day. This unexpected visit spooked my girlfriend so for the remainder of our stay she stayed pretty well dressed. We don't care that someone came to do maintenance on the backyard but at least give your guests heads up. It's crucial to instill trust in your guests that are paying LOTS of money to enjoy a visit at this great home.
Besides those 2 critical points, this place was awesome! - Kevin T., San Jose, CA

Hi Kevin, Thanks for taking the time to leave your thoughtful review of Top of the Hill. We are delighted you enjoyed your stay, overall, and apologize for the security camera intrusion. The property host has said they had no idea this was the case (microphone enabled) "as we are not very technically savvy! We installed the camera (facing the front door) simply to be able to see in case there was ever an intruder (not to "spy")!" The camera has now been completely removed. Again, we apologize about the onsite groundskeeper without you being aware in advance. The property host sent an email/text with this info, but apparently it was not received. In most cases maintenance is done when there are no guests at the house, however with the triple digit temperatures, there was no choice but to water during your stay. Apologies for the scare to you and your friends. We hope you will consider Top of the Hill for a future stay! Thanks, Beth, Paso Robles Vacation Rentals
Just Spectacular!!!
Had a fantastic experience in every way possible at 'Top of the Hill'. The house was beautiful, well maintained and the views and wide open spaces were to die for. The hosts incredible hospitality only added to be the best experience I have had in Paso for many years. With so many wonderful wineries so close by, I would never stay anywhere else. Truly a gem in of my favorite places in the world - can't wait to return. - Zak R., Newbury park, Ca

High School Friends Gateway Every Year for the Past 20 Years
This home was amazing!!! We loved everything about the home from the floors, to how comfortable the beds are to having large enough common area spaces for use to all be together; such as the couch and the kitchen table. Having a kitchen so well stocked so we could just hang out at the home and visit with each other was just what we wanted!! The fire pit was perfect to enjoy at night while looking at the stars and hearing the Coyotes. We pick a new place every year but I could see us coming back to this home again.

This is our second time staying at Top of the Hill ... and it will not disappoint. The guest rooms are comfortable and well designed.

We stayed 3 nights as we were touring the Paso Wineries and we loved staying at the house. Completely stocked home, any time we had a question for the owner they got right back to us. Great bocce court while enjoying the beautiful views. We walked each morning as the area was so beautiful. Very remote and quiet, we had 3 couples and we were very comfortable. - Karen L., ,

A Little Piece of Heaven
WOW! I'm hesitant even writing this review because I want to keep this place a secret, but everyone should know that a magical place on top of a hill really exists. From the time you get to the property you're consumed by nature and breathtaking views. Once you enter the house you immediately feel like it's your own, with every amenity you'd ever need along the way. The kitchen is massively stoked with everything you need to cook any sort of meal, so my recommendation is get some supplies ahead of time and cook whenever you can. You can tell a lot of thought and effort went into appointing and decorating the house as well. The backyard and fire pit are a serious component that make this house truly special, so make sure to spend some time out there!
The house is not too far from Paso where you feel it's a trek, but is just perfectly removed from reality where you feel like you have your own place to relax and unwind. Can't wait to return with some more of our friends! - Kolby C., Redondo Beach, CA
