If you love paying an arm and leg for mediocrity this is the place for you. Do yourself a favor and stay at Rancho Bernardo instead. Bandy Canyon says they’re pet friendly but you’ll have to fork up $100 for the pet fee. I’ve stayed at Rancho Bernardo with my pet who is an emotional support dog and the fee wasn’t $100, that’s absolutely ludicrous. Not to mention there is no wiggle room for checking in early. Also, when turning on the water to shower it smells like rotten eggs and the sink water comes out black. The staff is not helpful let alone friendly or on time to open the office to check out. Again, do yourself a favor and stay anywhere else.

The cabins were nice, but the grounds had not been maintained, the creek that was once beautiful and lively with ducks and fish,was dried up with moss and mold. The hot tub was drained. The check in person at the front desk, however, was super nice and apologetic. We left the property as we did not want to stay.

I stayed at the Sparrow Cottage for a weekend in December. There was a little hiccup with the gate code, so I’m glad I arrived while the office was still open. Everything else was great - very clean and comfortable cottage, great welcome/breakfast basket, a really useful suite of appliances for toast and coffee. On the ground lots of space for kids to play and run (sports goals, chess, lawn games). Very quiet at night and home to great horned owls! It was absolutely lovely and I would definitely stay there again. (Note, friends were staying at another cottage and their water was rather sulfurous smelling, but the water in the Sparrow cottage had none of that - it tasted and smelled great.)

The facility is due to a remodel. Shower door doesn’t close all the way so the bathroom floor floods when shower was used. Requested for a maintenance repair, but it didn’t get fixed and we did not hear back from anyone. The property uses well water that has high sulfur concentration so when hot water is turned on the entire room will smell like rotten eggs. The environment is nice and quiet and feels safe.

day in the quite country

we were pleasantly surprised with the Bandy Canyon Ranch. Very well taken care of. everything looked green and serene. the only thing they can add is to have some sort of food service since it is out of nowhere. Also we couldn't get any information on hiking trails around the Ranch.
