You can bring your kids and pets to enjoy a back to nature experience. The property provides a plenty of room on 1/2 an acre which includes a spacious fenced upper backyard area for young children and pets to play. This A-frame cabin has been through a recent remodel complete with an iconic new green metal roof. It boasts a spacious master bedroom in the upper loft area overlooking the main living area with vaulted pine tongue and groove walls. The main level has an open floor plan which has a defined well stocked grourmet kitchen area, living room, dining and game table nooks with a wood burning stove as the centerpiece.

The pool table with a ping pong topper is set up in the lower level game room with a portable BBQ propane grill just outside the French doors for guests to enjoy. There are many hiking trails nearby with Lake Cuyamaca just 7.5 miles south which boasts year-round trout fishing. For those who are inclined, there are local wineries, cideries and breweries to enjoy along with scrumptious local dining experiences. Local activities for kids of all ages include gold mine tours, petting zoos, apple, pear or daffodil picking, ax throwing, horseback riding & fishing🎣.

Great location for Julian
There were issues with cleanliness, but we had a lot of contact with Linda, the host and I believe she is on top of correcting that. The place is part modern, part rustic and a work in progress. Linda has more plans to modernize it, but understandably it is not easy to do it all at once. Linda is very helpful and wants her place to be a great place to stay. The kitchen is updated and very nice. The living room is a bit small for any more than 4 - 5 adults. Lots of games and stuff to do (we didn't use any of it, but for those with kids would be ideal.). Julian is nearby but it is a drive, not a walk. Julian is a beautiful area but if you don't like crowds don't go on the weekends.

Terrible stay
We had problems with air conditioners leaking water all over the floors. Mouse/rat infestation…we have pictures of feces in the house…but the odor was awful…had to close the door to a room and bought febreze spray to try to not have house smell so terrible. Bunk beds infested with fleas…so much laundry to do when at home as well as washing dogs and people. Horrible and no response from owner to date. Other people had good stays but we did not. First horrible no host response. Do not stay here…unless you want fleas.

A great cabin!
We had a wonderful time here! First, the beds were very comfortable and our entire party slept well each night. The kitchen was fully stocked and the living spaces were comfortable and good for game nights. We appreciated both the wall heater and the wood stove- very cozy for the cold weather! Also, the trees around the property were gorgeous- we were surrounded by fall colors. Check-in & check-out were simple and easy. The location is perfect- near to town but far away enough to be peaceful. Our teens enjoyed the games (fooz ball and pool) and our little dog enjoyed the fenced in yard. All in all, a perfect trip for our family!

Quaint small town in Julian CA
We had a wonderful time in the charming small town, where there was plenty to explore. Our visit to Main Street was delightful, filled with unique gift shops and historical buildings. While the town offered a peaceful atmosphere, we especially cherished our time in the cabin with family. At the Julian cabin, we made the most of our stay with various games, enjoying the pool table and poker table. Although the karaoke machine wasn’t charging—an unfortunate setback—it didn’t dampen our spirits since we had a streaming service to watch movies together. Unfortunately, we experienced a mishap when one of our guests fractured his toe, which prevented us from visiting Lake Cuyamaca as we typically do. Despite this, it was still a lovely trip overall, and our host was incredibly helpful and responsive throughout our stay.

Quiet, Fun, and Comfortable
We found this a great place to stay while exploring Julian, a local gold mine, and taking our grandsons to Sea World in San Diego. The grandsons had a great time playing pool for the first time and there was a lot of other things for them to do. It was in a great area and was very quiet. Everyone enjoyed their stay.
