Very special location at the top of a mountain with views for days! Some little quirks, but it all adds to the charm. I'm glad we had an AWD SUV for the drive up, though 98% of cars should be fine. Just don't take your Italian sportscar!

Beautiful mountain getaway! The drive up the mountain is already beautiful, but getting to the top and the view overlooking the mountains is something that needs to be experienced. My husband and I loved the cabin, the home-like feel, and the ability to watch the sunset and sunrise from pretty much anywhere in the cabin!

Amazing experience! The cabin is located in a beautiful area, it had really nice amenities, and every little thing I needed was in there. I might just have to go back sooner than later! The view was more than worth the drive up the hill. Loved it!

Great little scenic cabin The view is awesome and it is still pretty close to things in Julian. You may not want to make the drive up to the cabin at night since with the beautiful remote views comes some rough roads, but totally doable. Enjoyed my stay!

Incredible Getaway! The views from this cabin are incredible. You literally wake up with a full view of sunrise in front of you. Super cozy with the wood burning stove going. Everything was clean and comfortable. Loved it and already looking forward to staying there again.

Beautiful Location We came up for a 4 night stay, and it was amazing. Sunday and Monday we spent the day in Julian. But we kept wanting to go back to the cabin to relax with the beautiful view. Everything you could want and need for a vacation in the mountains. Only caution is that a car with 4x4 would be wise, as our little sedan had a little trouble getting in and out of the property.
