Wine Country Visit

The property was perfect for our weekend stay while we visited the wineries in Temecula with friends. The cottage contained everything needed to make it a home away from home. We'll definitely return. We just wish there was a firepit closer to the cottage for a nice evening to sit by the fire outside and enjoy a glass of wine.

Wonderful stay for my mom's bday

The cottage is such a dream! Impeccably clean with thoughtfully appointed (coffee, snacks, toiletries, water, chargers). And the location is so convenient. 5 minute drive to many wineries and we actually walked to a few that took 20-30 min to get to on foot. We also took advantage of the game room - the ping pong table was so fun! My mom was very impressed with the place and we hope to be back soon!

Very much enjoyed the property and Cottage.

Perfect girls trip location

The entire experience was amazing! The cottage was comfortable and beautifully equipt with everything we could/would need: snacks, water, toiletries, and even wine! The location was perfect for everything we did including a wine tour, hot air balloon ride, and Old Town Temecula. Definitely do the winery walking trail to the 3 closest wineries. The grounds were so quiet and peaceful. We had the best time!!

Amazing Property

We stayed in the cottage with another couple. It was super clean and very well stocked with anything you can think of and more. Shakeh and Shawn were quick to respond to texts, the location is amazing, beautiful views, and it was close to wineries. We will definitely stay at the property again in the future. There is also a Villa which we look forward to staying in once it opens. Definitely will recommend to friends planning a stay in Temecula.

Charming country cottage

We had a wonderful time here! It felt like a home away from home. Everything about this house was perfect! The inside was immaculate, the beds were comfortable and showers were amazing. Nothing beats this location. It was so quiet and peaceful, and the views were stunning. We watched the sunset from the back porch every night, and every morning we could see the hot air balloons taking off. The hosts were super nice and we can’t wait to come back!

Great Experience!

This was one of the best experiences we have had. The pics don’t do the cottage justice, it was awesome, clean and both rooms were equally sized which is great for 2 couples. The location was perfect 5 minutes to countless vineyards and about 15 mins to old town. The cottage was stocked with coffee, snacks, and pretty much anything we needed. The hosts were so friendly and communicative. Check in and check out was simple and they even gave us some ideas for wineries etc. We would stay here again for sure.

5-Star Ranch Retreat

All the 5-star reviews were spot on -- Peppertree over-delivered on our expectations! We stayed in the cottage, which had everything we needed for a long-weekend away. It was a great space equipped with all the basics, yet bonuses like snacks, games, bottle of wine, bottled water and wood for the fireplace. The property is also amazing. It borders the walking trail to a handful of wineries. We especially like Lorenzi which is right down the road. Can't recommend enough!

Amazing property

We have stayed at countless properties all over the world and they got it right in every way. It was well appointed with thoughtful surprises. ( drinks & snacks already stocked in the fridge & in the kitchen). Thoughtful Bathroom amenities were on pair with a 5 star hotel. Games, bbq charcoal, firewood are among many additions that made it so easy to stay at the property without spending hours shopping for resources. House is very clean and comfortable, location was perfect. So glad we stayed and would definitely go again. Highly recommend

Why they chose this property

From the moment we walked in to Peppertree Lane Ranch, we were mesmerized by the rustic beauty, the open spaces with nooks and crannies and special touches, the location in the heart of Wine Country, and the calming serenity of the property. The Cottage provides the cleanliness and amenities you'd expect from a fine resort along with the space and privacy of your own resort home -- all situated on seven acres of gated outdoor area for your enjoyment. The Cottage also features a private outdoor area with a park-style grill, picnic table, hammock, bocce court and cornhole boards for relaxing, unwinding, and enjoying time together.

What makes this property unique

Access to seven-plus acres and adjacent to vineyard walking trails that lead to wineries. Each morning, weather-permitting, the skies around the Ranch are filled with hot-air balloons. During the day, the ranch is vibrant with trees, flowers and wildlife -- a great respite for birdwatchers. In the evenings, soft lights illuminate the property, setting the stage for evening strolls, late dinners and owl-watching.
