## A PLACE TO SLOW DOWN
Light a fire on a cool evening. Make coffee in the morning. Sit outside and listen to the birds. Watch for deer. Take a relaxing bath in the clawfoot tub. Read a book, play a game, or simply enjoy having nowhere you need to be.
The cabin is designed for relaxation.

**Important bathroom information:** The bathroom is accessed through the primary bedroom. Guests staying in the second bedroom will need to pass through the primary bedroom to access the bathroom.
This layout may work especially well for families or couples traveling together, but it is important to consider if you are traveling with unrelated guests.
## WOOD-BURNING STOVE
Nothing says mountain cabin quite like a wood-burning stove.
On cool Julian evenings, gather around the fire with a cup of coffee, cocoa, or your favorite beverage and enjoy the cozy atmosphere.
Julian's mountain climate creates crisp mornings and cool evenings throughout much of the year, making the cabin especially inviting during fall and winter.
## OUTDOORS & WILDLIFE

The surrounding area is home to deer, birds, and other wildlife. While wildlife sightings can never be guaranteed, deer and birds are frequently part of the Julian experience.

This is a wonderful retreat for nature lovers, bird watchers, photographers, hikers, and anyone who simply appreciates peace and quiet.
