An unforgettable stay — highly recommend! We had such a wonderful experience staying at this Airbnb! From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations.

Every detail—from the comfortable bedding and well-stocked kitchen to the thoughtful touches like fresh towels, coffee, and made us feel completely at home. The location was perfect—peaceful and private, breathtaking mountain view from the pool. We especially how quiet the neighborhood was. Our host Posh was incredibly responsive, kind, and helpful, making check-in and communication smooth and stress-free. It’s clear they truly care about their guests’ comfort and experience.

Peaceful Cabin/Mnt. Views/King Bed/5 min. to town

JamieRating, 5 stars1 week ago

What a beautiful cabin and stay in Julian. The home has everything you need with clear information and local recommendations. We had a warmer weekend and although no central air, the open windows and plenty of fans cooled everything down, especially at night. My in laws loved the home and used the TV, we didn’t cook but the kitchen seemed to have everyone one would need! We did have coffee every morning and enjoyed the view. We would stay here again if we ever come back to Julian.

Casa Blanca

Michelle ElaineRating, 5 stars1 week ago

We really enjoyed our stay at "Casa Blanca"! Marina was a great host. The view from the deck/living room and Master was just beautiful with a wonderful breeze! Everything was just as listed, high speed internet, clean and appliances in excellent working order. Lots of very hot water too! Very private and peaceful and we felt very relaxed and at home. Master bed was comfortable and the home is very close to the lake, tackle shop, boat launch and the Lake's local restaurant, as well as, a short drive into town where "Mom's Apple Pie" was a must along with a little "touristy" shopping! We were lucky to have encountered a gaggle of wild turkey visiting the front driveway into the upper hill while we were here too. Thank you Marina!

Mid-Century-Modern in the Desert

JulioRating, 5 stars6 days ago

Cool lil spot in the desert. Deceivingly small from the outside. but plenty of space for a couple. Honestly my wife and I loved it. Also one of the cleanest AirBNBs we've stayed at. The moment they saw the place was booked we get a message that they went and turned the AC on for us,we didn't need anything in our 1 night stay but I have a feeling that if we did they world have responded ASAP. Can't wait to get back and watch the stars again. Thanks for a hassle free stay.
