About this property

Tranquil country setting w/majestic views

Unwind in our guest suite located on a lush one-acre hilltop property, tucked away on a private road. Enjoy beautiful mountain views while relaxing beneath a shady, extra-large, mature fig tree or around the fire pit area.
Spend time with our friendly chickens in their own large coop, or enjoy a peaceful swing beneath the fig tree. You’re just 25 minutes from the beach, 10 minutes from the San Diego Zoo Safari Park, and only 1.3 miles from Trader Joe’s. Or simply stay close to home and enjoy a scenic one-mile walk around the quiet neighborhood loop.
Inside, relax in comfortable beds, luxury motorized soft-leather recliners, and enjoy the convenience of a mini kitchen and a large smart TV—perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring.

Our stay at this charming Escondido cottage was absolutely wonderful! I visited with my daughter and two young granddaughters (ages 2 and 3) for a weekend wedding in San Marcos, and the location could not have been more convenient. The cottage was spotless, cozy, and beautifully maintained—complete with everything we needed for a comfortable stay.The property has such a peaceful atmosphere, with gorgeous views and thoughtful touches throughout. My granddaughters especially loved the swings, the friendly chickens, and saying “hello” to Mr. Phil, our gracious host. The fresh eggs were such a bonus!We truly enjoyed our time here and would love to return for another visit. Highly recommend this lovely retreat for anyone visiting the area!

This was a wonderful place to stay—just the right size for what we needed. The location is peaceful and quiet, and the home had everything we could ask for while being out of town. The host was very responsive and communicative, always quick to answer any questions. We couldn’t have been happier with our stay and will definitely make this our first choice if we’re in the area again.

Quaint perfect little house on the hillside

We really enjoyed our stay. Everything we needed was already there, we were so excited to have fresh chicken eggs as a gift from the host and the beautiful happy chickens that we got to meet. I loved the garden and the swings were a hit for my grandchildren. They didn’t want to leave. We all really enjoyed our stay and the bed was so compfy, we were so grateful we didn’t have to run the ac because the windows when left open gave a fantastic cross breeze through the house. All in all we loved our stay. We would choose this home again.

Therese was a delightful hostess. While you share the home with her, she stays out of the home or in her bedroom when guests are present. Easy access to CWU, especially at graduation/move out or move in times. Quiet neighborhood. Comfortable bed. Lovely to have coffee and breakfast bread waiting in the morning.

Thank you Phil for opening up your home to use while our house in Murrieta was under repair. What a nice area of Escondido with excellent views of the valley below. Great soaking tub and all the conveniences were appreciated. Such a nice touch to offer fresh eggs, s’mores making supplies and snacks. Great, relaxing stay just moments from my work.

Beautiful rental for our family of 4. Short drive to San Diego Safari Park. The view from the patio and the fig tree with swings was so relaxing! Easy check in and out process, reserved parking spot. In very quiet residential area. Thanks again for the Easter goodies!

Comfortable, Clean, Quiet

I really enjoyed my time here. The bed was comfortable, the amenities were great, and I was easily able to relax. Great set up with the TV and bar. The electric stove, air fryer, fridge, and microwave have you all the amenities of home. I have stayed in other VRBO's where these aspects are missing. The shower is spacious, deep, and has great water pressure. There is a bidet too which is appreciated. The chickens were awesome, and the complimentary half dozen eggs were a nice treat. Phil was a very courteous host. There if you needed him, and gave you your space if you didn't. I will be coming back next year!
