    Our trip and stay in Cambria was a surprise birthday gift for my fiance, not knowing this was a place she had wanted to visit for a long time, so surely a win for me. The ambiance with the surrounding flowers and trees made the place very serene...

    The property is lovely. This time we stayed in the Historic Squibb House accommodations. Reminds me of grandma’s house. We want to stay in the Parlor Room next! We are local but love our Staycations.

Company info

I'm a long-time resident of Cambria. I own three properties called The Squibb Houses, located side-by-side in the most desirable and walkable part of Cambria. I also own a shop next door, featuring hand-made furniture purchased from the Amish in Pennsylvania and Ohio.

Property info

Embracing the historic charm of Cambria, California are The Squibb Houses...two bed and breakfast properties including a special Shop Next Door selling hand-made Amish furniture. All properties are located side-by-side on the most walkable and desirable street in Cambria's Village. The Squibb Houses are a destination to relax, reconnect, rediscover, and enjoy. We are within walking distance of local shops, sites, and restaurants and very close to Hearst Castle, The Elephant Seals, The Templeton and Paso Robles Wine County and the Beach.

Neighborhood info

The Squibb Houses is beautifully located on a quiet street one block away from Main Street in the original East Village of Cambria. It is walking distance to literally everything: shopping, restaurants, historical society, wine tasting and antiques. West Village is one mile down Main St. Moonstone Beach is two miles away and wonderful hiking is close by on Fiscalini Ranch, Harmony Headlands and coastal walks. Hearst castle is seven miles North on Hwy. 1 and the wine country of Paso Robles is an easy drive from town. 35 miles South is San Luis Obispo with Morro Bay and Cayucos easy stops along the way.
