Pet/Family Treehouse style cabin in woods

FAMILY CHILLING/ RELAXING VIBES NOT PARTYING VIBES
NO PET FEE for first 3 dogs, please no cats
We went back to charging after 4 people and verifying number of guests upon arrival. The back downstairs room will be available after 9 guests.
Balcony deck is in the process of being rebuilt. It is best to stick to the back deck/ fire pit area.

Our single family home was built in 1979, just 4 miles from historic downtown Julian. Nestled in majestic oaks, our house sits just off the main road in a secluded hillside with views to the mountains. City lights can be seen from both the downstairs porch and upstairs living room. This is a family-friendly, dog-friendly cabin. It’s perfect for people who want to chill and not worry if someone puts their feet up on the coffee table. The house is fully prepared for people traveling as a family or a group, and with dogs. The kitchen is stocked with all the cooking essentials except the actual food although there is a good amount of condiments in the fridge and dry food in the pantry . We have plastic dinnerware for kids. Some spices are stocked in the cabinets. Dog bowls, treats, and other supplies in pantry. There is a dedicated kids' room with age-appropriate toys, a train table, farmers market stand with play food, kid-sized table and chairs, dollhouse, and a TV monitor with Apple TV and DVD player. I’m in the process of replacing the floors, the flooring at the stair landing is uneven bc I have the flooring under the carpet. UNTIL WE REPLACE THE BALCONY DECK please do not use. I’ve moved the furniture to the back deck where the fire pit and BBQ are
THE AREA- This place IS truly a beautiful and magical spot where wildlife is attracted to our front door. That said, I do want to point out that THIS IS AN OLDER CABIN IN THE WOODS AND BUILT INTO A HILL AND UNDER A CANOPY OF TREES, there will be acorns, leaves, etc that fall onto the deck.

Quiet, rustic stay near Julian!

We decided to stay here to celebrate my mom's 76th birthday. There were 6 of us with plenty of room for more. The place was quant, quiet and just want we needed for a long weekend. The cabin was close to Julian but far enough away that you felt the quiet that nature has to offer. Amazing sunsets and loads of turkeys to entertain us all, especially the dogs! Melisa was a great host and made us feel very welcome. I'd definitely recommend her place and will stay here again

The very special family Christmas

The house was very cozy and prefect for our group. We have dogs and they loved the yard and we didn't have to worry as the fencing was great. The host was easy and very easy to get ahold of as we had a question for her. the group voted we would definitely go back there.

Great weekend

The place was as described. I was rustic, but that is what we like. The place was clean, and there were a ton of toys for our grand child. There was plenty of blankets and towels and tons of plates and cups and utensils. Very nice for a big family get together.

Nice quiet location

We enjoyed our stay here. Host Melisa is very responsive and accommodating. It is an old cabin so if you are expecting ritz and glam - don’t bother booking here. If you want a nice quiet comfortable place to stay that is off the beaten path, but still close to some fun things to do - this is the place for you. We stayed when it was hot - and the ac was fabulous.

Wonderful Cabin

What a great cabin. Just as described and a terrific owner. If you like nature and incredible sunsets, you will love this cabin. If you sit quietly on the deck, wild turkey, deer will walk right by. Also saw incredible California Condors floating in the sky.

Perfect getaway!

Had a wedding in Julian and housed some of the bridal party here! It was absolutely perfect for the weekend. The location was super close to the venue and went with the rustic, fall vibe so wonderfully. The host was super accommodating and very quick to respond to the few questions we had along the way!

Lots of space

We rented this house to accommodate my parents, my adult daughters, my husband and myself. Everyone had there own space and was roomy. We were attending my sons wedding at a winery about 20 minutes away. Was a great fit for us but is a distance away from most things.

What a special place

We had a fantastic weekend. Melisa was just the best host ever in many ways. The cabin less than 10 minutes from town and the drive in/out was easy and gorgeous. Quiet place, with a ton of room and a few special treats/thoughts left behind from Melisa. Thank you and we will be back!

Amazing location, even better host!

I wanted to surprise my girlfriend for her birthday by taking her up to Julian and then having our friends come up as well, all without her knowing. We were 4 couples total and had 3 dogs between us so that is very difficult logistically to find a place that would accommodate both. Melissa had the perfect place with a very spacious 4 bed cabin and an amazing location in the woods outside of Julian. Melissa was extremely responsive, the cabin was exactly what she described and even went to far as to have a birthday cake waiting for my girlfriend when we arrived. The dogs loved the space to run around, we loved the quiet and nature of the woods. It was an incredible stay and Melissa is an incredible host!

Thoughtful touches and rustic charm

Our group enjoyed our stay tremendously. Outstanding view right out the main windows! The cabin was well equipped and we had everything we needed. We could tell that the owner had put a lot of thought into making guests’ experience magical. Definitely read the owner’s description before booking. It is very detailed and also accurate. The house has its quirks and you need to read closely and be able to follow directions for the best experience, so keep that in mind before you decide. It worked well for us. The owner was very available whenever we had a question or needed to find something. It snowed the weekend we went, which was a last minute flip of the script. But I feel like she communicated with us so well that we were able to switch gears and prepare for the snow (buy chains, pack in duraflames, pack differently and take a different route, etc) due to her messages. In fact, she stood by and stayed in contact as we checked in to make sure we made it safely inside with the snow, which made all the difference. In summary, a great stay in a beautiful location. I cannot overstate the view out of the living room wall of windows! And the touches of hospitality all around were evidence that we were wished a wonderful time. (Go yourself see what I mean!)

We enjoyed our weekend In Julian. The cabin has a rustic feel to it and the property is big. The kids enjoyed playing outside especially on the tire swing. Close to downtown Julian. Which made it easy to go shopping and buy some delicious apple pies! Yum! Melissa’s was an excellent communicator and answered all my questions promptly. We would definitely stay again!

Fun, fabulous family Christmas!!

We made so many wonderful family Christmas memories. The fact I was able to bring our 3 dogs made the experience extra special! The 3 morning sunrises with my coffee, beautiful colors, and view were amazing. The last morning we had rain and 7 deer. Everyday the wild turkeys would drop by as well as the deer! Mr. Squirrel would drop by throughout the day! The red woodpecker was a treat! My morning walks with my dogs in the neighborhood with all the mountain views were breathtaking! The Cabin/Home was very roomy for the 10 of us. We had nice hot showers and a fire in the fire place everyday & night!

Youth Retreat

It was a great cabin. The owner's communication was awesome and very helpful in all my questions i had. The nature outside was great with all the deer passing by on the property. We had everything we needed in the cabin. The only thing i would say is seeing the cabin online was not what i thought. I thought their was an extra bedroom. Because it had different bedspreads on the room, so I thought there were two bedrooms like that instead of just one. The latch on the oven broke when we pulled it open but we did fix that and made the screw tighter.

Loved our getaway!

Dec 26 We often saw deer wandering in our yard. And a few times, watched wild turkey wander through. Melisa was a wonderful host and provided a lot of information. The place was as described and very cozy. I have never seen a rental as well stocked as Cedar Creek Falls Retreat! Our doggies were very comfortable and loved playing in the snow. The town of Julian is quaint and we enjoyed our pie. Would love to return for another stay!
