Jason was such a gracious host from start to finish. He was so laid back and didn’t have any crazy demands or lists of things to do, it was all so easy and user friendly. Check in was super easy and we just used a key pad and combo to enter at our check in time. Upon arrival and in person, the cabin was such a pleasant surprise and the photos online truly don’t do the place justice. It’s so unique and has so many personal touches and comes equipped with everything you could ever need from a telescope to kitchen utensils and salon quality products in the shower. The cabin was exceptionally clean, the bed was very comfortable and I liked that I was able to log into my Hulu account on the tv there too. The decorations are so cool too and really gives it that old school western vibe. You can really tell that so much thought and love was put into the cabin. It even has a soft water filtration system which is nice too. We brought our dog who throughly enjoyed the surrounding areas and taking walks around the pond on the property. There are also endless areas to walk and hike around that area which was perfect for us. The cabin is a very short walk into the town too, which is so convenient! We are already wanting to go back and can’t wait to plan our next trip to the cabin! We 10/10 recommend, it was just perfect and such a special and fun trip for us!

Great location and exactly what you need for a stay away from home!

We enjoyed our stay and really appreciated the attentiveness of our host. It was a nice place with a beautiful view. My son absolutely loved playing records on the phonograph! We would definitely stay there again.

1st lets say the home is amazing, it's quent yet roomy at the same time. The host has outfitted the place with great usefull decour, records for the record player, board games for the family and a wonderful guide book about the surrounding town. The town is great the food is wonderful, they do close early though so make sure you go to a grocery store like Alfi located in Romona as the stores here are limited and very expensive. Lots to do that is different than the wild race of city life.

Negative- 1. The cleaning crew did not do their job properly, specifically the bathtub, it wasn't cleaned at all, hair everywhere, I found Ajax and washed it before we could take showers. 2. Right after we checked in, we saw colonies of ants inside the house, near the entrance. I have pictures of them, hundreds.... We immediately notified the owner. He sent someone to spray Raid and put out ant traps, not what was expected from our vacation. 3. The air conditioning unit in the bedroom was absolutely super loud, we couldn't sleep, even with our 33db noise reducing ear plugs... it was very hot inside, 92f. we waited till 3:30am, turned it off then went to bed. When complained to the owner, he said it's not loud. My family was not able to have much sleep the 2 nights we stayed there.

Although slightly out of the center of town, it is easily walkable, and it is very close to a brewery.

Apple & Gold Mine Town A-Frame - me and my husband chose this property because of its proximity to the San Diego 100 mile ultra run with its start/finish at Lake Cuyamaca Recreation and Park District, Anza Borrego Desert State Park, and the heart of Julian, CA. The property, with its rural setting exceeded our expectations - spacious with all the comforts of home.

This property is conveniently located within walking distance from the Main street. It is quiet and secluded. Beautiful landscape around.
