About this cabin rental

Located in Julian, this charming cabin for $254 per night is a fantastic choice for your next break. Enjoy our spacious, beautifully-crafted open cabin with stunning views across our valley through two-story windows: an instant feeling of retreat! You can also feel good about your retreat knowing that 100% of the energy used during your stay will be powered by the sun using our solar water and solar electric systems. We also own a three-bedroom house across the street, "The Wildflower." As our family has grown we use the two houses together so there's space for everyone; you could, too. The spacious kitchen, outfitted with new stainless steel appliances and plenty of cooking tools, lets you enjoy meal preparations without missing out on any of what's going on. The generously-sized island makes both a great work area and a good place to hang out. The kitchen includes a microwave, two full-size ovens and plenty of gadgets for your culinary adventures. Curl up on the loft couch or downstairs in front of the fire for a restful getaway. Get a group together to play board games or put together puzzle from our collection. Gather in our front room to watch a favorite movie on our 47' flat screen t.v. with Blu-Ray/DVD player. Spend a morning reading in the teak swing hanging in the oak tree just outside the kitchen window. The two similar bedrooms feature queen beds, with luxurious and cozy linens (and the same goes for the pull-out sofas downstairs). The cabin is perfect for a family get-away, and includes a pack-and-play crib for the little ones. Modern rustic tile in the bathrooms and showers compliments reclaimed antique vanities. The downstairs bath includes a spacious shower; the upstairs bath has a shower/tub. A generously-sized balcony/deck spans the back of the house, accessed through two french doors. Teak patio furniture lets you enjoy this extra outdoor living space--perfect for morning coffee, outdoor dining, and stargazing at night. The house features stunning custom work, including a rustic and elegant railing made from oak trees that grew on our property; solar water heating continues our commitment to eco-friendly choices. Whether you enjoy being outside hiking and exploring Julian or just want to stay indoors for a weekend of rest and relaxation, this house offers an experience of mountain retreat as soon as you walk inside! Our home is located about 2 miles south of Julian's town center, and about 5 miles north of Lake Cuyamaca. On a beautiful hillside, it is a gorgeous vantage point for watching the seasons in Julian, and has easy access to town and to outdoor adventures. We apologize this home is not pet-friendly.

We also own and rent a three-bedroom house across the street,"The Wildflower." As our family has grown, we are grateful to have been able to add this cabin that was lovingly built by friends of our grandparents. When we're able, we use the two houses together so there's space for everyone; you could, too.

We celebrate our December birthdays in Julian almost every year. This was the first house we stayed at with a Christmas 🎄 tree to greet us. We enjoy Romanos, Warm Hearth, Julian Cafe and Julian Cider Mill. Its so cozy to be in this house when the wind is howling outside.

The house was very close to Main Street (less than a ten-minute drive). The property was clean and spacious. The kitchen was very well equipped and the large dining table was great for playing board games.

Everything was perfect about our stay at the custom built home by the Littlehale family. First off, the home is gorgeous and has a great view. We decided to stay there rather than camping on a very cold weekend in Julian. What a good decision that was! It was warm and cozy and had all of the amenities one needs. My kids especially loved the added board games, cards, etc., along with the comfy TV room. And what fun it was to read about the Littlehales family history, and the process of building their beautiful home. So here’s a big shout out to the family and the property managers for a job well done. Thank you so much for the opportunity to stay there. Hoping to return in the near future.

House was decent but could use a good deep clean.. Couldn't lock front door upon exit to the wedding we were attending, which made us late. Door just kept beeping upon code entry. You could lock it from the inside to sleep but we were unable to lock and secure the house when we left. Left a phone message that evening to Barbara and a message on VRBO and never heard back…

We came to get a mountain experience with our grandsons. It was everything we thought it would be. The cabin was spacious, yet cozy. We enjoyed the patio/deck. We even got up early to enjoy the meteor showers!

This was our first visit to Julian and to this beautiful home. There was plenty of space for our family of five and we truly felt at home in this lovely getaway. The home is well stocked with everything you could possibly need to prepare dinners, play games or just relax. We did a lot of all three!! My favorite part of the home is the large back deck that has an incredible view. And of course, the tall ceilings and windows which gives the place a very open, light and spacious feel. The deck is perfect to enjoy a morning cup of coffee and is shaded in the evening for dinners on the family size table. There is also a gas grill with provided propane for a BBQ. We loved being able to stargaze at night. There is one neighbor to the west (right side when looking out) that leaves their back porch light on all night which causes some light pollution, but there is still plenty of darkness to see hundreds of stars. The location is perfect, just two miles from town. Just far enough away to feel isolated, but close enough to make quick trips for dining out, shopping, or to pick up groceries. We were all very sad to leave, but I promised we’d return to make more family memories. You can definitely feel the love in the home and we are looking forward to returning again soon. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us! The Cope Family
