The apartment has a tasteful country vibe, situated on a 2.5 acre estate with privacy and breath-taking views. Please no pets and no smoking.

The space
Just 7 miles to the beach while nestled in the rolling hills of east Encinitas in a community called Olivenhain, Fortuna Rach Sanctuary (fortunaranchfarmsantuary.com) is bustling with growth and a heart for compassionate living. You are close enough to enjoy all the activities that San Diego has to offer but also able to enjoy a relaxing and quiet experience down on the farm. Stunning panoramic views of beautiful foothills and tranquil country life await you.
horse trails, mountain biking, or Zen out with our rescued goats.

Guest access
Our space offers privacy and comfort.
It contains:
• 1 King size bed

The unit is attached to the main house but situated on the far side behind the garage with its own exterior entrance, giving it nice privacy. Every morning and/or evening, you are welcome to join the owner to feed the goats and learn more about Farm Sanctuary life and the work we do on rescuing farm animals. Just notify us if you will be joining a feeding time so we can coordinate the time.

Other things to note
We live on the property with two dogs, and a growing herd of farm animals, but it is still a private space. I can be reached easily by phone or text if something is needed.

Quiet and accommodating

Quiet area with beautiful views. We enjoyed relaxing each evening on the front porch area and having a cookout. The accommodations were great, enjoyed the comfy bed and walk in shower. Had everything we needed for our short visit. Andy addressed any needs or concerns quickly and efficiently.

Unique

This was a great property. Sad our flight got in later than expected and we didn't arrive until after dark and we were only staying one night. It's off the beaten path but not too difficult to find in the dark. Bed was very comfortable and the shower was amazing. Excellent host.

Beautiful and clean

The property was absolutely gorgeous, everything clean and looked new. Waking up to seeing the animals was so lovely, I wish we had more time on our trip to enjoy all the scenery but we only had one night. The host was very communicative and very helpful throughout the stay. Absolutely recommend this for a weekend getaway !

About the host

Hosted by Andrew Blough

Host profile image
I was born in San Diego and have lived a variety of places around San Diego but nothing matches the tranquility of the rolling hills with the proximity to the beach and restaurants as our current location. I love surfing, hiking, skiing and hanging outside by the fire, as well as engaging in fireside discussions with friends while staring up at the stars. My wife is a passionate animal lover and animal welfare advocate who enjoys hanging with our two dogs and herd of goats. Our eldest daughter enjoys riding horses and our youngest one loves to dance. We enjoy a plant based lifestyle with a particular love for tacos and guacamole. Our family motto is to love God, others, earth and animals.

Why they chose this property

We started a nonprofit farm sanctuary in 2020. Your stay helps to fund the care for the animals. We volunteers on Saturday's from 10:00 to 12:00. Your welcome to hang with the goats or add some volunteer time to your stay. The property is situated in rolling hills of Encinitas and is very rural but still 20 minutes to the beach and 10 minutes to shops and restaurants. A truly amazing place.

What makes this property unique

Access to endless miles of hiking trails where you can find streams and deer. You can also meet our rescued goats or star gaze as this area is a dark zone at night.
