About this property

Cactus Garden Cottage…Best Location!!

Paradise found! This exquisitely decorated and secure getaway with gorgeous desert gardens and views for miles offering quiet and serene nights is the perfect antidote to crowds and noise. Kick back and relax in this calm, stylish space in a fabulously located spot in Fallbrook, CA which is a short drive to the ocean, Temecula wine region, Bonsall and Oceanside. The very best of Southern California living on an elegant estate with secure off street parking inside a walled and gated compound. We have five rescue dogs on the property. They are very friendly and are the official welcoming party. If you have an issue with dogs it’s best that you find other accommodations. We want our guests to feel comfortable. We have over 150 five star reviews across two platforms and the dogs are the highlight of those reviews along with our gardens.
