Tucked away amidst the towering pine trees and surrounded by the Cleveland National Forest is this quaint mountain cabin. The sounds you’ll hear in this quiet corner of the world are the acorns dropping from the trees, the wind whispering through the branches, and the lilting songs of the birds that make their home there. The lush greenscape that surrounds this cabin cocoons you in a feeling of peace and tranquility, perfect for a weekend to unplug, unwind, and rejuvenate. Spring and Summer months on Palomar Mountain are filled with the activities of hiking in the forest, mountain biking, starlit nights, and fishing or visits to Doane’s Pond, while fall brings visits to nearby Julian for their award winning pies, a flurry of apple picking, and hot apple cider. Winter in the mountains brings stormy weather with nights cozying up to a roaring fireplace and the occasional snowfall with fun filled snow days. Don’t forget about the renowned Palomar Observatory that is just a few minutes away. Own a piece of this majestic mountain range and enjoy the lifestyle it has to offer.
