We stayed at Margaret’s place for a wedding, it was absolutely perfect! Small and manageable, full kitchen, and a very safe gated location. Nice bathroom products to boot. Great stay, we hope to be back!
We enjoyed our stay and would return if we are ever back in Fallbrook. Comfy bed and spacious cottage. We loved meeting Ranger and another of the pups. Well appointed kitchen and close to Fallbrook town center. Easy check in and out too.
Tucked away in a safe & secluded location yet within driving distance to winery/wedding venue, we enjoyed this cute, clean & peaceful environment full of many amenities during our brief stay.
