About this property
Top of the Mountain Cabin on 40 acres with Amazing Views
Located high above the clouds in Oak and Pine forest, at an elevation of almost u6000 feet this beautiful cabin offers spectacular views of the mountains and forest. The cabin is located away from the main house in a very private setting with its own private road and entrance.
Find yourself surrounded by nature, wildlife and complete tranquility and privacy. Enjoy beautiful mountain views and city lights from an outside deck and have dinner under the stars.
Mt Laguna and Lake Cuyamaca is just minutes away with thousands of trails, fishing, boating, birdwatching, camping and amazing scenery.
This charming studio has a queen size bed, bathroom with bath and shower, kitchenette with Keurig coffee maker, medium size fridge, microwave, stove, toaster and blender for your use. Enjoy the large deck and morning sunrises straight from your bed.
Historic gold mining town Julian is about 15-20 min away, where you can sample Julian’s famous apple pie and ride down Main street in a horse-drawn carriage. Sunrises and sunsets are included.
***Other things to note***
*The elevation of our location is almost 1600 feet higher than Julian town, therefore, the weather in the summer is about 5-10 degrees cooler and in winter snow fall is much heavier and longer lasting.
*Friendly dogs on the property
*Dogs are allowed with prior approval. One time pet fee per dog applies ($50). If you have 3 or more dogs, please contact me first. You agree not to leave your dog (s) unattended inside (crate ok) or outside the property. Any damages or extra cleaning will be withheld from the damage deposit. No cats or other pets.
*Please keep noise levels reasonable, especially in the evenings
*NO SMOKING or FIRES - I (we), our guests, agree to not smoke in the house or outside. Any kind of FIRE (fire pits, bbq, fireworks etc) is strictly prohibited outside or inside the property. You could face charges by the county, fined and lose your deposit and/or face additional charges. Breaking this important house rule will result in immediate removal from property.
*Wood stove inside the cabin can only be used with owners permission. We do not provide firewood. Only seasoned wood is allowed to burn, NO duraflame firelog or any other similar starters. No dumping of ashes outside, please leave them inside the fireplace or in specially designed tin bucket next to the fireplace.
*This is a mountain cabin surrounded by trees and nature. Very occasionally one may see ants or spiders. Please keep that in mind when booking.
*Due to high elevation the weather can be rainy and snowy during winter months. In case of SNOW - 4WD, winter tires and chains are mandatory (no exceptions) to access the property. In case of heavy snow fall, we reserve the right to cancel the booking if property is not accessible. We're not responsible for any injury caused by slipping on snow or ice. We do not provide towing and we are not able to help if your car becomes stuck for liability reasons.
*DO NOT TRESPASS! Please do NOT walk past any gates.
*NO drones, shooting, fireworks or hunting allowed, which includes killing birds and squirrels with a pellet gun.
*NO electric car charging or bringing something that draws large amounts of power.
*In general sounds carry from further away in the mountains. Sometimes there might be some noise from one of our neighbors working on their properties ie tractors, heavy equipment etc. Unfortunately, we can't control that.
*If there are high winds or fire danger the electricity can be shut off by the power company which is beyond our control. We do have electrical storage with Tesla power walls which will have a limited amount of power in the event of long outage.
*Our property is located on forty acres and sighting of the wildlife is not unusual. Please be respectful of their habitat, and at the same time be aware of your surroundings, especially during the months of May through September.
