Perfect getaway

We were looking for an overnight property while being out in Temecula for a wedding and when we arrived at dales property we were sad to only be able to stay for one night. Such a charming home and so much room for everyone to feel comfortable. Great distance to the wineries. We definitely will be back to spend more time enjoying this property.

Baldwin wedding

The property is unbelievably beautiful and working with Dale was a dream come true. The entire process of planning was effortless because Dale was approachable, helpful, and kind. He was more than accommodating and a calming presence. I cannot recommend Dale’s beautiful property and home enough to future guests. The grounds were beautiful but so was his home. Very cozy and inviting, a home away from home.

Fabulous stay in Temecula

This is a great property. The house was a great size. We love the trails and taking our dogs for walks around the property. It was very quiet and relaxing. The peacocks roaming around were a great surprise. Would definitely stay here again.

Bachelorette weekend fun

Property was absolutely beautiful and more homey than we were expecting. Check in and out was simple and quick. Take time to wander the property (it's STUNNING) and keep an eye out for the awesome wildlife! Make sure to keep the screens closed or you might get a visit from a bird

Great Getaway

I would have given it 5-stars across the board if we didn’t have a bad smell coming from the refrigerator/kitchen. The house is cozy and is on a beautiful plot of land. It had all the essential items needed for our stay. We noticed a smell when we first walked in but it wasn’t too bad. As we looked around the house and started putting our food and snacks away, the smell became very noticeable. There were quite a few items left in the refrigerator and freezer so I didn’t want to clean it out thinking it was the owner’s. From a communication standpoint, Dale was very responsive. I informed him of the smell in which he said he would address.

Great stay

When we showed up, Dale was there within minutes. Very friendly, we ended up spending at least a half hour with him, just talking. Great host, great guy! Loved the unique vintage decorations inside. Wish we could have stayed a week! It is everything the pictures show, and more. Thanks Dale.

Couldn't have stayed at a better location

Everything about our stay here was amazing. From the ease of checking-in to Dale's flexibility of checking-out, it was hands-down the best experience I've had with any rental property I've had. We held our wedding on the site and our guests could not stop raving about how beautiful everything was. We had some younger guests who told me they had the best time because there were so many things to explore. Our dog had free roam of the huge property and we could tell she was just having the time of her life. Dale himself was the best host we've encountered. He was accommodating to all the vendors we hired for our wedding. He helped troubleshoot the heaters during our event. Dale even took the time to get the fire pit going and entertained some guests with stories of the stars while showing them how to make s'mores. We literally can't imagine having had our special day in any other location.

Off the beaten path

The location was great for the wedding we were attending! Every dish we used we had to wash. Refrigerator was full of condiments and such. The freezer was so full we couldn't use it. It is a ways from everything so try to bring food with you and avoid needing to go out. House had 3 bedrooms however the only TV was in the living room. Only one couch in living room so 4th person had to sit on floor or piano bench. Beds were comfortable and house had needled supplies. Definitely not a luxurious condo but for the needed location it was ok. Property owner was very friendly and helpful

Reviews Didn't Reflect The Property I Visited

Based on the property's reviews, I thought I'd found a nice place for a family getaway, but... this will be a mixed review and I'm being as balanced as possible. First of all, we enjoyed watching the cotton tails in the grass and the peacock strut about. The beds and bedding were nice and comfy. The downstairs bedrooms and bath were updated. However, the upstairs bedroom and bath were not only out of date, but they were also run down and a wall partially painted. The WiFi was a nightmare. It was so unstable (unusable) that we couldn't use the TV much of the time, nor could we access the Internet or email on our laptops On the second day, the owner placed his phone outside on a table to serve as a hot spot. And if your cell provider is Verizon, you will not have coverage at all. Overall, the grounds were not cleaned up. The floors weren't swept and the carpets and throw rugs were unwashed. Personal items were everywhere--in fridge, on shelves, in cupboards. A handful of vitamins and a medicine bottle cap were left on the bathroom floor. Personal shower items (including a used bar of soap) were in the shower for our use? A bedroom ceiling fan was broken and bedroom window slats were missing. A dirty hand towel was left under a bed. Like I said, not cleaned. Being out in the country, it was quiet and a private location, which was nice, plus the owner lives on the property, so he and his wife were available if needed. I didn't expect luxury accommodations, but I don't think it's too much to expect cleanliness. The owner agreed to a small refund because the WiFi was not working.

The evenings are extra special and a great time to end the day with a glass of wine from one or out local wineries. Its a special place and we love sharing it with others!
