Mother/Daughter Weekend Getaway

My daughter and I spent a couple nights in this adorable cabin celebrating her earning her Masters Degree. Gail was so thoughtful to have graduation decorations out when we arrived along with a delicious carrot zucchini bread. We enjoyed horseback riding nearby, spending a day in Julian visiting tea and pie shops, exploring LaJolla, and surfing Tourmaline in San Diego. The location was fantastic, the cabin was immaculate, and the hosts were so wonderfully thoughtful. Our stay could not have been better.

Perfect

My wife and I stayed at Surfing Cowboy Ranch for 7 nights in late Feb. It was the perfect base camp for us to visit my sister in Escondido, hit the tide pools at Point Loma, explore Anza-Borrego desert state park, visit Silverwood Audubon Preserve, and hike several of the nearby trails (Iron Mtn, Mt. Woodson, Ramona Grasslands Preserve). Just minutes from Ramona. Found an excellent Thai restaurant (Pinto Thai) in Ramona. The cabin was great! Spotlessly clean, fully stocked kitchen, comfortable bed. We got in late the first night and were greeted with a welcome note, homemade zucchini bread and fresh butter! Bruce & Gail (and their 2 dogs) were excellent hosts. They treated us like family. Spent every morning with a cup of coffee wandering around the property watching birds. What a trip! There are several local wineries nearby but most only open on the weekends so we missed them but Pamo Valley winery has a wine bar and local music in downtown Ramona. Enjoyed the wine and the music. Highly recommend Surfing Cowboy Ranch! Thank you Bruce and Gail for your wonderful hospitality. Maybe see you in TN!

Peaceful cozy cottage, pretty setting and great hosts!

Had a wonderful stay at Surfing Cowboy. Hosts Gail and Bruce were very welcoming and friendly. Friendly dogs too! The cozy cottage on their ranch was really nice, comfortable, clean, with plenty of amenities. Was very quiet and peaceful. Made a great base for exploring the Ramona area, and close enough to San Diego if you wanted (or needed) to get into the city.

Quick, quiet getaway

This cozy little cabin was just the right fit. We arrived to a nice warm cabin on a cool evening. Our hosts left a delicious sweet potato- pumpkin bread for us. There was a nice selection of coffee and tea for the Keurig. We slept wonderfully, due to the comfy pillows and quiet country location. We will definitely book again.

Why they chose this property

This is the place if you are desiring a quiet peaceful piece of nature while still being able to enjoy some city life. Ramona is a cute town with a nice bit of nightlife. "The Barn", a restaurant in town, has dancing and live music on weekends or wander off to a large variety of wineries. Feeling energetic there is a waterfall near the area (20 min away),Cedar Creek Falls, rock climbing areas, and in August an Awesome Rodeo in town!!!. We have Rascal our cool cat, our mascots, Admiral & Joy & 6 chickens. Also if your looking for some great healthy nutrition we have a Microgreens farm you can stop by to see and taste.
