The cottage is very peaceful and relaxing. We had a great time seeing all the animals roam around during the day and had an amazing view of the stars at night. The cottage also has plenty of food and drink options available nearby. There are various wineries in the area and it is also a short drive away from downtown Julian.

October 2023

When we first got there all seemed well the 2 woman greeting us were nice and it was easy to find. There are some concerns which is why we didnt even stay longer than 30 minutes. They do not have the key so they ask that you do not lock it, they dont know where the key is and doesnt seem like they are getting one. They also said people have been onto the property before and im sure it could happen again. They lock the gate to leave at the end of the night which is a fire hazard and not safe in the slightest. They mention kayaks and cable tv the kayaks were filled will animal droppings and the tv did not have cable. We were really looking forward to this stay but thats how a lot of horror movies start so we decided to leave. Nothing against the owner or her business partner they were both very kind but we just decided to be safe in the situation
