A fenced back yard is perfect for a dog, while the enormous front deck allows for a great hang out spot and night time star gazing.The cabin is a studio layout with a queen bed and queen sofa bed.

The cabin is on its own property and is not attached or shared by any other building.

Forested neighborhood in the mountains is quiet, lots of birds. (and wild turkeys!)

A favorite place with our dogs in Julian

A nice sized yard along with a nice front decking expands the living space of this property well. A entire notebook chalk filled with lots of good ideas of local attractions, restaurants, and places for hiking make this a very welcoming place.

March weekend getaway

Great little cabin far enough from downtown Julian but close enough to get to with a short drive. Very quiet and loved that it was pet friendly. We loved lounging on the deck watching the wild turkeys wander about the neighborhood. Lots of windows for ample sunshine and watch the snowfall. The host was very accommodating and kept me updated on the inclement weather. Thank you for a wonderful weekend and hope to make it back up there for a future stay.

Fun getaway in the woods; especially if you have a dog

We have a small pooch and we like to be able to bring her along when we take vacations. This is a great place for such a getaway. We really enjoyed getting out on the deck in the evening for some star watching. Lots of windows to open up to allow cool breezes to flow through and to listen to the rustling of the tree.

Super cozy cabin!

We had a great stay here. It's a great open layout, most of the accoutrements you'd expect, a great yard for dogs, and a very effective gas fireplace if it gets chilly. It's very close to downtown Julian (5 minute drive) with tons to do (many dog friendly businesses, too). Ran into a couple snags and the host was quick to reply and work things out. Also, there's this great notebook on the coffee table that is extremely informative of the town and what you can do there. Highly recommended.

Heaven for dogs!

This property exceeded my expectations! It was one of the few places that allowed us to bring our four dogs and it was perfect for them! The cabin is large and equipped with everything a guest would need. The host got back with me right away and was very helpful and friendly. We would definitely stay here again. Thanks, Matthew!

Cozy place

The cabin had everything I needed and my dog enjoyed the backyard. Very close to town to eat and dessert. There was a night that one of the neighbors was having a fight with someone but, other than that, nice.

Enjoyed my stay!

Great place to stay- description is accurate and it was a great place for my dog:) One thing that was not good is the shower- it’s really old and kind of yucky. The bathroom sink is super old too, but the shower is pretty bad. Otherwise, great place!

About the host

Hosted by Larry Rios

Host profile image
We're a local San Diego couple and live between Julian and San Diego - this is our weekend/vacation home. So we use the cabin as well and just love being up in the mountains in the quiet woods!

Why they chose this property

It's quiet and peaceful without being isolated - it's a short trip into town so you can grab food, drink and PIE and be back home quickly. You can also walk.

What makes this property unique

The cabin was built in 1965 and still maintains some of the original fittings. The inside is all knotty pine and very open!
