Beautiful location. It is located very high up on narrow curvy street. It has a great view. The house is large and well furnished. We ended up spending more time inside due to effects of Tropical Storm Rachel. Lots of wind, rain and fog. Very unusual weather.

Thank you Paul. We hope that you enjoyed the fireplace during the wet tropical storm weather. We do get many kinds of weather up there, mostly sunny days, but occasionally rain and snow. We hope to see you again in the future. Cordially, Mike & Jean

We really enjoyed our stay, what a beautiful location and property. Such amazing views from every room. We loved the backyard area and balconies. So great for evening glass of wine or morning coffee. The shuffle board upstairs was a bonus! Check in was smooth and easy. Very comfortable beds and couches to relax on. We will be back!

This property was absolutely STUNNING! We came for our daughter's wedding in Ramona and this Lake House in Julian was perfect for the 9 of us. Spacious, beautiful, and THE BEST stocked place I've ever stayed in! They had EVERYTHING we needed as if I were at home. The beds and pillows were so comfortable. Plenty of extra blankets. Bathrooms were also well stocked with several comfortable towels. The patio was quiet with a breathtaking view which we enjoyed each morning and evening. I would come back here again in a heart beat and Mike was great to work with. Highly recommend.

Fantastic Mountain Escape

Recently stayed here with my family and could not have been happier with the house. Ample space, a great backyard for the kiddos to run around in, and just short 5 minute drive to the lake. Would absolutely stay here again.

The property is beautiful, the view of the lake unparalleled. The house is extremely well appointed.

I have never rented a vacation home that had a more well-stocked kitchen for making family meals at home.

Thank you Shawn, We often go up to the lake house just to relax and to take in that view. We have a chef's kitchen at our main home and we prepare gourmet meals from all over the world. We don't often repeat recipes because there are too many in the world to try and only a lifetime to try them. That said, when we go to the lake house, we want to be able to prepare any dish that we want so we keep the kitchen stocked as needed. We appreciated having you and your family stay and we welcome you back in the near future. Cordially, Mike & Jean

It was great having you stay again Tanya. You missed the Thunderstorm that came in yesterday but it might have gone over the valley too. Lots of lightning, rain and large hail stones for about 45 minutes, then the sun came out again. Mike & Jean
