Top of the Mountain Cabin on 40 acres with Amazing Views

Located high above the clouds in Oak and Pine forest, at an elevation of almost 6000 feet this beautiful cabin offers spectacular views of the mountains and forest. The cabin is located away from the main house in a very private setting with its own private road and entrance.

Find yourself surrounded by nature, wildlife and complete tranquility and privacy. Enjoy beautiful mountain views and city lights from an outside deck and have dinner under the stars.

Mt Laguna and Lake Cuyamaca is just minutes away with thousands of trails, fishing, boating, birdwatching, camping and amazing scenery.

This charming studio has a queen size bed, bathroom with bath and shower, kitchenette with Keurig coffee maker, medium size fridge, microwave, stove, toaster and blender for your use. Enjoy the large deck and morning sunrises straight from your bed.

Historic gold mining town Julian is about 15-20 min away, where you can sample Julian’s famous apple pie and ride down Main street in a horse-drawn carriage. Sunrises and sunsets are included.

Better than expected
Spent one night for my wife's birthday and she was thrilled. The cabin has everything you need and the view is amazing. We walked the back roads and watched the sunset from the other side of the mountain and the sunrise next to the cast iron stove from inside the next morning. Just what we needed to unwind after the x-mas holiday. The road up the mountain was just as fun, I recommend a suv or truck. We'll be back

Beautiful cabin, beautiful views
The cabin itself is lovely. It looks just like the pictures. It was clean and felt secure. It was definitely secluded. I was not prepared for the drive though. I should have read between the lines about the elevation change. Steep streets and switchbacks. The dirt road portion worried me a bit, but at least I have a SUV, so scraping the underside of my car wasn't on the top of my list. The driving instructions could have been clearer. We had to make some educated guesses on the way in. This would be a difficult drive in the dark or in the rain. We tried to reverse the directions when we left, but took a wrong turn and ended up leaving using a different route that was actually much easier. Please don't get me wrong. I definitely recommend the property! I just want any city slickers (like me) reading this to gain from my experience!
