Fantastic Place
This place was very clean, quiet, and had everything we needed. It was off the main path, but not too far from everything. Perfect place for a quiet little getaway.

Wonderful stay!
Cabin was right above a salon so I got a haircut and my wife got a manicure. The unit is right on a lake which you can see from the balcony. The unit is well furnished and comfortable. The host was super responsive and helpful. Would highly recommend!

This is our 4th stay...we love everything about it. It is a clean, cozy, beautiful get away. Tucked away by a pond, and perfect for our family of 3. Thanks to the property owner Jadon for being so accommodating, friendly and professional!

Nice little home base for a Julian area trip
I stayed here for a weekend of activity in the Borrego Springs / Shelter Valley area. The loft was nice and clean with all the furnishings you would need (though I used little of them). I really only used it as a place to sleep. Sadley, I have to ding it one star as the heater was not capable with keeping up with the 40 degree temperatures of the weekend. The inside never got much above 60 despite the heater being set to 68. Fortunately, the bedding is significant enough to keep you warm while sleeping, but it did make for some chilly mornings while getting ready.

First time at VRBO
We enjoyed our stay very much. We had many questions when we arrived. I would text to Jason. His responses were always quick, easy to understand and accurate. We would definitely stay at this location again if we find ourselves in the area! Thank you, Jason.

Great getaway
My wife and I came here for a weeklong getaway. This place was instantly comfortable. Very homelike feeling. The only thing that wasn't provided was our own food. Everything else is there! The surroundings are very peaceful. There are businesses attached to the building, but you wouldn't know it. Nobody bothered us at all, which is what we were looking for. Downtown Julian is very close and there are some very nice places to check out that are close by. We didn't need a lot of communication with Jason, but when we had questions, he got back to us very quickly. We want to make this a regular spot to stay when we need another getaway.

Julian A Frame - A+
We have stayed in this cozy location annually for 4-5 years now. We head up to Julian in search of snow and to head into town to eat and shop. It is located just out of town but a very close drive (in case you forget your toothbrushes). Everything else Jason has stocked for a weekend getaway and if you have any questions he is readily available. It is very clean and well kept. We will be back next year!
