Secluded Earthbag Off-Grid Tiny House

KimberlyRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had a wonderful stay. We were looking for somewhere peaceful and secluded. The house was very comfy. We slept well in the bed. The bathroom was awesome. I really liked all the big windows in the bathroom. It was a really a different experience to take a warm shower with a beautiful view. I loved it!! The first night, We lit the pit by the hot tub. And it REALLY warmed up the water. It was too cold outside by the time it was ready so we didnt get in. We'll plan it better next time. The second night, we BBQ'd and we had everything we needed for the grill. Lucas really thought of everything. We will definitely be back when it's a little warmer at night so we can appreciate the dark sky and beautiful stars.

Wine Country Cabin Near San Diego - Private

AndreyRating, 5 stars1 week ago
The cabin was very clean and well-maintained. Located in a quiet and peaceful area, it offered a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle. The views were great — a nice place to relax and unwind. The cabin is perfect for a couple (two people), but will accommodate three. Enquire ahead of time regarding the use of the tub as it may not be available.

Bluebird Tiny House Forest Retreat

AlexaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
I came here for a peaceful and relaxing getaway with my pup and it was everything I hoped for! The owners were very proactive with information about getting there and what to expect (it is pretty secluded, so bringing your own food for the stay is recommended). It was private and quiet with plenty relaxing things to do - walking trails, a cute yoga yurt, hot tub, fire pit, soaking tub. I loved it and would 100% come back!

Crooked Pine Farmhouse- Historic District

JonathanRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This was literally the nicest Air B&B property we've ever stayed in. It was a true home, not just a house. It was impeccably decorated, warm and inviting to stay in. Lots of books, games, and a beautiful view of the mountains from a wonderful patio. Yet it was just under an 8 minute walk to town. To quote Jack Johnson, "We felt so far away, but we were still in town". It was the perfect mix. More importantly, James was exceptionally responsive when we had a few questions. We never waited more than 10 minutes to get a response when we reached out. If you're looking to stay in Julian, don't bother searching for any more properties, just book this one.

Hilltop cabin retreat with lake & mountain views

SavannahRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This place was an AMAZING stay! Such a great place to chill and hangout by the pool and enjoy the property. The only thing missing was some kind of air conditioning in the cabin, but really only necessary for the hot months. Otherwise everything was perfect! Will be coming back for sure.

What a find! Reese's place was so well organized, spic and span clean and a great location. You are entering a new home with every luxury comfort at your fingertips. A perfectly decorated home, that is well stocked and ready for you to enjoy. Being pet friendly, the gym and the Tesla charger were an added benefit. If you are looking for the best stay in Julian, you have found the right spot. As a high maintenance, very picky individual, I would gladly give this place 10 stars. Reese thank you so much for providing a wonderful home. I'll be back!

Award-Winning AFrame Chalet |Cedar HotTub + Views

RachelRating, 5 stars1 week ago
My family and I had such a wonderful time staying here during memorable day weekend. There was something for all of us to do. We fished at lake every day, a big plus for my husband as it was just a few short minutes away from the front door, to the quality time we had inside the house playing pool, to the top tier coffee machine that allowed me cozy mornings on the patio listening to the birds with my husband, to the smores we made outside at the fire pit while gazing at the stars. The house is so beautiful and inviting, curated with such an eye for detail and warmth. We truly cannot thank you enough for sharing your home with us and we cannot wait to visit again soon one day.

Unique Mountain Gem: Sauna ~ Hot Tub ~ Scenic View

MalikRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Neil and Bonnie's retreat cottage was truly an amazing experience! From the moment we made the reservation to the time we left we felt well taken care of . Word can't describe the true beauty of this place it is a must see and stay! Very peaceful and relaxing experience. Just a 2 mile drive and you're in downtown Julian, where we had a good hearty breakfast at the Julian Cafe and Bakery. Volcan Retreat is everything stated the the description but more. Clean, quiet, and private a perfect place for a romantic getaway but also a place for the family. We will definitely be staying here again this I believe is even more beautiful in the snow.

Peaceful Cabin/Mnt. Views/King Bed/5 min. to town

JamieRating, 5 stars1 week ago
What a beautiful cabin and stay in Julian. The home has everything you need with clear information and local recommendations. We had a warmer weekend and although no central air, the open windows and plenty of fans cooled everything down, especially at night. My in laws loved the home and used the TV, we didn’t cook but the kitchen seemed to have everyone one would need! We did have coffee every morning and enjoyed the view. We would stay here again if we ever come back to Julian.

Your guide to Julian

All About Julian

Located in the Cuyamaca Mountains northeast of San Diego, the small town of Julian was established during the Gold Rush by two Civil War veterans hoping to strike it rich in this lush valley. Before long the gold dried up and they were left with fertile soil, perfect for farming. Today, Julian is well-known for its delicious apples and mouth-watering apple pie, and the area is a popular day-trip destination for San Diegans, who come to visit the apple orchards.

Julian is home to just over 1,500 people, and features a main street lined with locally-owned businesses and art galleries in low-slung buildings from the late 1800s. The town is also located just off of the famous Pacific Crest Trail and is a gateway for the stunning Anza-Borrego Desert State Park. Nearby areas provide ample opportunities for hiking, biking, and horseback riding.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Julian

With mild weather year-round, there is no bad time to book a vacation home or cabin in Julian. Summers are the hottest time of the year, but the days are long, giving you plenty of time for outdoor activities like hiking and horseback riding. One of the highlights in summer is Julian’s Fourth of July Parade, which involves a flyover of military training planes, live performances from various marching bands, and a selection of vendors for shopping and eating. During the spring and fall, the temperatures drop a bit and the town comes alive with special events including Gold Rush Days in April, the Julian Grape Stomping Festa in September, and many fall harvest celebrations. While the winters can get a bit chilly, this is the quietest time of the year, when it can feel like you have the hiking trails all to yourself.
