About this property
Modern A-Frame Cabin located at Pinecrest Retreat
Built in the 1970s, the A-Frame sits in the center of Pinecrest Retreat a vintage trailer park established in 1961. Pinecrest Retreat is located on 80 acres and is home to 140 trailers, a hiking trail, and a junior Olympic size pool opened seasonally (Memorial Day weekend till the end of September). Owners of these trailers cannot live on site but have access to their trailers as a weekend getaway spot. Pinecrest Retreat is about four miles from town and four miles from Lake Cuyamaca.
The A-Frame features a 360-square foot cathedral ceilinged open space with a sitting and dining area. A kitchen with refrigerator/freezer, gas stove & oven, sink, coffee maker, plates & utensils and most of the basics. The A-Frame has a bedroom downstairs with a queen size bed (with twin size trundle in the closet), a full bath, and an open loft upstairs with a king size bed and balcony. We supply fresh linens, blankets, and bath towels. The A-Frame also comes with a stereo and WIFI but no television is provided. There is a large private backyard with a gathering area, a propane grill and Cowboy Calderon fire pit. The listing price also includes access to the pool in the summer months.

My parents have owned Pinecrest Retreat for the past 12 years and I have been running the show with my husband for the past 5. I grew up in Julian and am pleased to be home to run the family business.
What makes this property unique
Pinecrest Retreat is unique place as it was founded in 1961 by General Dynamics Corporation, Convair (an American aircraft manufacturing company) as a place for their employees to recreate. By 1994 General Dynamics sold the Convair Division and Pinecrest was sold into private ownership. Pinecrest Retreat is a vintage trailer park due to the old-time relics left behind from 1961. Our mission today is to connect people with nature, community and the classic American travel-trailers.
