"The Deer Bungalow" Pine Hills Large Custom Home in Julian that is Pet Friendly

When you arrive in Pine Hills, you will see why it's Julian's preferred area. Mature oaks & pines await you with abundant wildlife. There is rarely a day when deer or turkey do not come to our back door to say hello! A nice variety of beautiful birds & big bushy squirrels also frequent the property.

We have a Jacuzzi Spa, which is in the backyard, and you can watch the views while you enjoy the bubbles!

The house is large (2400 sq') with a wrap-around deck, swing set, horseshoes & hammock.

Only a few minutes from famed William Heise Park and downtown Julian, This amazing retreat has a 75 " TV in the media room and a second TV in the giant fireplace room, where you can cosy up and watch your favorite shows.

There is plenty of hiking nearby, and this area is very quiet and private. We expect our guests to be the same! We do not allow parties or events that cause a lot of noise.

Added guests will increase the price of your stay. So be sure and put in the correct number of guests when you book. Pet fee is per pet per stay.

It’s was clean, cozy, very roomy, it’s was like home away from home and more. We loved waiting up and having coffee and watching the wild animals come to the property to eat and drink. Fire place was really nice to have on and the hot tub was a plus. Kids had fun exploring the back yard. It was great to see the our kids be kids outdoors instead of inside the house. Will definitely recommend and we will be back soon. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience.

Comfortable and Relaxing Home in the Woods

Our family greatly enjoyed our stay at this home in the woods. It was fun to watch the turkeys and the birds. The beds were very comfortable and the space was great for hanging out and enjoying our family, including our 3yo granddaughter, both inside and out. Very quiet neighborhood near town. We also thoroughly enjoyed attending the 4th of July festivities.

This place is an introverts paradise. It is quiet and peaceful. The animals that come by and feed in the backyard is a real treat. We enjoyed the hot tub in the evenings and coffee in the living room with a book in the mornings. Kitchen cabinets were stocked with cookware, though a touch unorganized. There is no drinking water and the tap water is a bit rough. A nice addition would be a water dispenser. This place was clean and extremely comfortable. Ahhhhhh…

Perfect family reunion, grandma's 80th birthday celebration. Spacious inside and out

This beautiful home met all of ourexpectations and the outside wooded grounds, trees, privacy far surpassed what we could have hoped for. We gathered from 3 different parts of the world (flatlanders) and we loved the very private spaciousness, habitate for deer, birds even wild turkeys.The hot tub was a bnus. In a word our stay was Perfection..and we loved Julian. We highly recomend this beaitiful home and definitely would return. Thank you, John, our Host, for being so accommodating and sharing this bit of heaven with us.
