We have been here 3 times over the last 6 years and love it every time. But do notice it is a little less taken care of each time we return. There are some items that would be good to stock up on, like utensils and some paper or plastic plates. I assume most people just go out and eat so usually it is no big deal. We could not get the Jacuzzi tub to turn on but still was able to relax in there, not sure if it does not work or we missed a switch somewhere. A curtain on the big window in the bathroom would be nice so it is not wide open. Doesn't seam like people can see you, but just in case. The room itself was clean and in great shape, the bay window is a huge plus. Would be nice if the TV was closer to the ground, having it up high kind of makes your neck hurt after a while. The wildlife is really cool and the property still very relaxing. We hope the ranch is around for a while longer. Would be great to see this place back to it's old glory, seams like it could be a great place to do weddings and other events. We realize this is an older place and may not have all the bells and whistles of other places have, but nothing was a deal breaker for us and it is very worth the price. We hope to be back again as long as you guys are still around. Thanks

Beautiful and peaceful. Deer showed up near the place. Awesome view.

It was wonderful! The deer, the turkey, the blue jays and woodpeckers were so amazing to see each day. Thank you Julie!

The people we dealt with were pleasant and helpful. The room was fine, except for a few cobwebs around the window. The grounds could have used a little work including cleaning up the outdoor area next our room. And we pulled weeds off the seats in a different outdoor seating area. But it was very peaceful and beautiful setting.

We love staying here. This was our second time at shadow mountain ranch, first time in the enchanted cottage. We just love staying here it’s so peaceful and lovely. The rooms are so cozy and there are some great views and it’s so close to town. It so easy to be here and feel tucked away but still enjoy all the things Julian offers. Any time we’re in Julian we will be staying here.

This is the second time staying at the Enchanted Cottage. Nothing has changed in 4 years....which is a good thing, smiles. The cottage is inviting, comfortable and a wonderful place to rest and relax. The property is beautiful and has a nice seating area under a canopy of trees. Close to both Main Street, Julian and Wynola- both having good restaurants and antique/specialty shops. Looking forward to the next time we can return to the Enchanted Cottage.

We have stayed at SMR several times and it is always a good experience. The host, Julie, was excellent and extremely responsive. We happened to go on the week of the largest snowstorm in Julian in over 10 years. The windchill was 17 degrees. The only minor problem we encountered was the amount of time it took to heat the cabin. When I contacted Julie she had a portable heater brought to us 10 minutes and that took care of the problem. You will be hard pressed to find a more serene and quiet setting.

Awesome
