Ballard (Solvang), the center of the Santa Ynez Valley was the first town that settled here in the late 1800's!
Surrounded by vineyards, mountains, horse ranches, farms and schoolhouses, you feel as you have arrived in a time warp of sorts where simple pleasures, mossy oaks, grassy fields, and warm sunny days are found.
We feel so fortunate to live here, closely guard its quiet serenity and are grateful for all the beauty, amenities, world class wineries, restaurants, breweries, and shopping this Valley has to offer.
A Beautiful route to the charming towns of Los Olivos, Santa Ynez, Solvang or Buellton takes only 5 to 10 minutes by car or make a loop and enjoy the scenery on our bicycles, provided to you at no charge!

Beautiful Property
We celebrated my husband’s 32nd birthday in the Santa Ynez Valley. This was a wonderful place to stay while enjoying wine country. My toddler loved the property and exploring the pond. I would definitely stay here again.

Great location!!!
We drove up the coast for a golf trip with another couple, trying to avoid El Niño rains late December - March. Wouldn't you know we were rained out anyways!! That being said, we spent most of our time enjoying this great house. It was perfect for our group and we enjoyed the cozy living area and fireplace while watching movies. The house was very well equipped and the host was super responsive. The location is great for wineries, restaurants and golf! Thanks for a lovely visit.

Host profile image
Hi, my name is Kris, happily married to my wife Hilde, have one son and live in California now for 26 years. Hilde and I feel very fortunate to call Ballard (Solvang), Home since 2012. Our pooches Ozzy and Rocco complete our family here! They stay at our home, Not at the rental, but run around on the property, keep the coyotes out and all off us safe. They are very sweet and Rocco is super social and eager to meet you, but only if you are up for it. Ozzy is a bit more shy and won't come to close to you without me being with him. We enjoy life, Friends and Fine Cuisine accompanied with a glass of wine or a delicious Beer!
We are looking forward to host for you!
Cheers!
