Peaceful cozy cottage, pretty setting and great hosts!
Had a wonderful stay at Surfing Cowboy. Hosts Gail and Bruce were very welcoming and friendly. Friendly dogs too! The cozy cottage on their ranch was really nice, comfortable, clean, with plenty of amenities. Was very quiet and peaceful. Made a great base for exploring the Ramona area, and close enough to San Diego if you wanted (or needed) to get into the city.

Mother/Daughter Weekend Getaway
My daughter and I spent a couple nights in this adorable cabin celebrating her earning her Masters Degree. Gail was so thoughtful to have graduation decorations out when we arrived along with a delicious carrot zucchini bread. We enjoyed horseback riding nearby, spending a day in Julian visiting tea and pie shops, exploring LaJolla, and surfing Tourmaline in San Diego. The location was fantastic, the cabin was immaculate, and the hosts were so wonderfully thoughtful. Our stay could not have been better.

Quick, quiet getaway
This cozy little cabin was just the right fit. We arrived to a nice warm cabin on a cool evening. Our hosts left a delicious sweet potato- pumpkin bread for us. There was a nice selection of coffee and tea for the Keurig. We slept wonderfully, due to the comfy pillows and quiet country location. We will definitely book again.

Bruce and Gail were incredibly hospitable, the cabin was super cozy and the theme of the cabin was to die for! They were both very sweet and more than happy to attend to any questions or concerns we had. The area of the location was beautiful, and it was a great getaway trip for the weekend. Can’t wait to come back!

Beautiful property
I had such a positive, peaceful experience doing an online silent retreat while staying at this property. The decor was beautiful and attention to detail was apparent. The hosts were extremely kind and supportive. Everything I needed was in the home. The surrounding area and property provided such calm, peace and beauty. I highly recommend this place for others!

Great little getaway !
My wife and I enjoyed our stay. We were in Ramona for a friends child's wedding. This was a perfect temporary home base for us and is a fantastic little place. It was quiet and only 5 minutes or so away from the main Ramona strip. I can't say enough about how welcoming and helpful the hosts were. Even after checkout the hosts were gracious. I highly recommend !!

Best stay ever!!!
My boyfriend and I stayed for his birthday for 2 nights. Bruce and Gail made us feel at home and made my boyfriend’s 28th birthday one of the best. We are already talking about another trip next year!! I HIGHLY recommend this place. The property is beautiful and the land is amazing. We loved sitting on the rocking chairs and soaking in all the beauty. I can’t wait to go back!! 10/10 experience.

Let me just say that the pictures on here do no justice!! It is 10 times better in person. This was the best getaway for my husband and I. The most perfect place to stay at. Such a calming and peaceful neighborhood and best of all the most coziest home. Bruce & Gail were fantastic, so welcoming and beyond attentive.

Peaceful stay in a beautiful area!
This tranquil cabin is amazing! The perfect distance from San Diego. The property owners went above and beyond to make me feel at home. The bed couldn't be more comfortable! The pool is beautiful and relaxing. I also enjoyed the hiking trails right outside the cabin. I am so grateful for the hospitality and plan to return in the future! Susan

Cute Peaceful Ramona Countryside Paradise
The owner's of "The Surfing Cowboy Ranch" were very communicative and accommodating. It was the perfect little place for my wife and I to explore beautiful Ramona or for someone to work while visiting San Diego; the internet service was strong. The bed and couch were comfortable, the kitchen well-appointed with nice accents, with a porch and sitting area by a fire pit. I/we will definitely be back next time we're in the area! There is a nice, large pool on the property next to the main house that you have access to. The dogs were very friendly.

Great host, super communicative!
Bruce & Gail’s place was amazing, quiet, remote, and private. I ended up getting a flat on my way there and I was quickly helped by Bruce and Gail guiding me to the nearest auto shop. Got my car up and running in no time. It was our first time in Ramona and could've not asked for a better experience
