Our family enjoyed the stay so very much. From the views, to the game closet, to the relaxed feel of coming home after adventuring, we loved it all. Hosts Mel and Tina have it all covered. Don’t let the long, twisty road from the bottom of the hill keep you from experiencing this unique and special property.We took short drives to Palomar Observatory, Soledad Mountain, and Mission Beach during our stay, as well.

The road up requires care on your first trip but then becomes easier. The home is spacious, the beds were extremely comfortable. The hot tub was wonderful (although only had one hour to enjoy!) it was an extremely hot week when we visited & the a/c struggled to keep up late afternoon but nights and mornings were wonderful. This is a wonderful place to get away from the business yet close enough to catch the freeway. Would definitely stay here again

Fabulous 3 week stay with my son. The views are amazing. While the drive up the hill is demanding, it's worth every minute!Mel and Tina are fantastic hosts. Made us feel very welcome. They responded instantly to any questions and found quick solutions. For example, the internet in the rooms wasn't working well when we got there. Mel immediately ordered and installed an extender to make it fine. We felt very comfortable in Mel & Tina's place and will be back.

Local Family Gathering

The house was great! Clean, roomy, and really felt like a vacation with the beautiful views. Perfect for our family to congregate at and to stay while all in town for my daughter’s baby shower. Will definitely stay here again!

This is a beautiful home and absolutely is portrayed accurately by the listing. It’s perfect for a family or friends gathering. I suggest your initial arrival be in daylight, although the instructions are very clear some of the landmarks are difficult to see in the dark. We made it and once you’ve done the drive it’s easy. Garage parking is a plus. Waking up to the beautiful view is fantastic. Our only (and minor) complaint was the shower in the hall bathroom was problematic. Wasn’t important enough to ask for a quick fix, but you might check it upon arrival. Overall I recommend this property without hesitation!

Great View and spa. Quiet getaway

We stayed for 5 nights while in town for a family wedding. It is so quiet and relaxing. The view from the spa is great in the day or night. The Master bedroom is HUGE and the beds were firm but comfy. Had a great stay.
