Spectacular Hideaway
My third trip to this great little getaway and I am always impressed with the ambiance, cleanliness and comfort. Marie and Allen think of everything. The area has so much to offer- great hikes, great food and close to so many small beach towns to explore. Will come back next year for my solo new years trip.

Cute little cottage
Allen and Marie are excellent hosts. We were in Vista for a wedding in San Marcos and this was not only in a perfect location, but also affordable. The cottage is a perfect size for 2.

Better even than pictured!
This charming French-inspired cottage is perfect. So well appointed, clean (I'm very picky), comfortable (every surface has some cozy cover that is so comforting), and quiet. I am so glad we didn't stay in a hotel. This was exactly what I had hoped when I booked it and more. We were able to hike right from the front door.

Perfect Stay, for a little get away!
I had a fantastic stay at this charming property! From the warm welcome upon arrival to the serene atmosphere, everything was perfect. The cottage is beautifully appointed with all the essentials and then some—perfect for both work and relaxation. If you're into hiking, definitely bring your shoes, as the surrounding trails are a must-explore. I came for business but would absolutely return for a retreat. Highly recommended!"

Charming and comfortable
The Bluebird Cottage provided a wonderful place for us to stay while in town visiting family. Everything about the cottage is exactly as it is described, including a fully stocked kitchen complete with farm fresh eggs! The hospitality of the hosts is unmatched. We're looking forward to staying at the cottage on future visits.

Adorable cottage on top of a hill
It's exactly as pictured and described. They had everything we needed and even had fresh eggs in the fridge! Slightly warmer in the day with only the fans but the night brought cooler air in. Because it is tucked in the wilderness, bugs were a plenty but they had bug spray even! Hosts were helpful and friendly. Already told family about this cute place!

Allen and Marie have such a beautiful property. It was so peaceful and serene. Just far enough away from the beach to enjoy the tranquil sights and sounds of nature. We love it and plan to return.

Hidden Gem great place for a getaway
We enjoyed our stay at the cottage, it’s comfortable with everything you need & close to the freeways & everything in North County San Diego. Loved the French country decor too! The Hosts, Marie & Allen are nice people who are helpful & responsive. It’s in the woods with a beautiful view but minutes from everything which made it feel like a country getaway.

Welcoming charm
The cottage was lovely. It was comfortable and had all the amenities we needed. The location, on the side of a mountain, was so unique. Marie and Allen went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. We would highly recommend the Bluebird Cottage.

Fantastic San Diego Area Experience!
Hosts were fantastic! My daughter and I were in CA for relaxation, fun and to get a more "local" experience to get a feel for the area. We felt like we had a little home away from home and had the opportunity to try a few eateries, wineries, tried surfing and snorkeling! We were even lucky enough to have the US Men's Soccer Team play in the Gold Cup and we got to be there! Super trip and our stay here topped it off wonderfully!

Like Being Invited to a Friend's Home
What a truly wonderful stay we enjoyed at Bluebird Cottage. Communication with the owners was not only easy, it was friendly and welcoming, too. And the compliments don't stop there. We entered our "home away from home" and found this gem truly a "home" that was thoughtfully planned out in decor; every possible thing a guest might need while away was available; and it was evident our comfort was top of the host's list. It was such a joy to come "home" at day's end and have a cozy place to land. One certainly feels they're "getting away from it all" here, yet you're still close to the highway, restaurants, grocery. There is no question that if life's travels have us returning to Vista (and we hope they do), our choice for comfort, atmosphere and friendly hosts would be Bluebird Cottage.
