Peaceful Getaway

Loved all the apple items in the cottage, and the porch was an amazing place to sit and enjoy the quiet on warm days. It was cozy and comfortable with lots of snack and coffee options. It is a wonderful location for enjoying the town or doing hiking. We hiked every day.

Cute little blue house

We enjoyed our weekend at this well appointed and adorably decorated little house. Quiet neighborhood yet close to town and lots of great hiking trails. It was nice to spend a weekend away, yet so close to home. We'll definitely be back.

Peaceful Weekend Getaway

My husband & I had a wonderful stay. My experience of Cris is that she is in communication from start to finish, thinks of every detail, and she makes you feel at home. The house is cozy and has everything needed. I loved that it was away from the town and the property was full of well thought out touches. We will definitely stay again!

Thank you Honey! As a child in the 1950s, when things got hectic at home, my Mom would wake me up and say,"Get up, we're going to Grandma's!" And, after an hour drive to LA, my grandma would be at the front door waiting for me with chocolate chip cookies...I have tried to recreate this experience with this mid-century farmhouse, complete with my Grandma's treasured heirlooms...and a return to a gentler time.

We loved the cozy cottage. It was the perfect size for the three of us and in a great location for exploring the surrounding area and enjoying meals and Julian apple pie! The cottage is decorated so cute and wow, so quiet and peaceful! We loved all the different tea and’s coffee products. It was very clean, was in a wonderful neighborhood to walk and checked off all the boxes we were looking for in our mountain retreat. The host’s communication was wonderful and friendly and we know it’s not if we come back but when. And a huge bonus was stargazing at night as Julian is a designated international dark sky community!
Wonderfully stocked kitchen!
Coffee, tea, snacks galore!
Such an inviting front porch to have coffee while looking at Volcan Mountain!
Wonderful, large, beautiful backyard!

Edwards stay.

Absolutely an amazing stay. The property is beautiful and and close to town but secluded at the same time. My wife and I love this property and cottage and can't wait to return for another stay. The communication with the owners was as excellent. They told us everything we needed to know. Can't wait to go back.
