NO PETS - PLEASE SEE PET POLICY BELOW.

ACTIVITIES / ATTRACTIONS / THINGS TO DO - CLOSE TO SOOOO MUCH! yet out and away.!! Only 15 Min. to easy freeway accessibility leading you to San Diego Zoo and Safari, Sea World, Lego-land, Museums, Down town San Diego Area, The Birch Aquarium in La Jolla, beaches galore, golf courses galore, Palomar Observatory, The Wine Tasting Safari, Wine Country Trails by Horseback -
http://www.winecountrytrailsbyhorseback.com/ and balloon rides and more. These destinations range approx. 30 Min. to 1 hr. in trip time. There is so much more to see & do. Please see my REVIEW GUIDE to find more Local Attractions (mostly within the 15 - 30 Min. time frame.) Also see the other attractions that are about 1 hr - 2 hrs. away such as Disneyland and Knotts Berry Farm.

WEATHER is fabulous, mostly in the 60-70's even in the winter. In the summer we have warmer temperatures 80's, 90's sometimes over 95 degrees and because we are 1,300 ft. above sea level we have a cool ocean breeze most of the time. Being less than 35 min. from Southern California beaches gives us the best of both climates because we are far enough from the ocean to escape most of the fog, clouds, and crowds yet close enough to enjoy the cool breezes in the heat of summer. We rarely go over 100 degrees and have air conditioning if we do get in the higher temps.

KITCHEN comes fully equipped with all stainless steel appliances and granite counter tops in addition to the smaller appliances ie: blender, 3 different coffee machines: a Cuisinart full pot coffee maker and bean grinder, a Keuirig 1 -cup coffee maker including K-cups, a Nespresso machine so bring your own favorite pods, hand mixer, etc. There is a LG oven/Cooktop and microwave, and a GE dishwasher together with a purified R.O. water system. The kitchen is stocked with some spices and basic condiments.

There is a CALIFORNIA KING size bed with a 3 memory foam topper, full length Mirror together with a quiet sitting area next to the window where you can curl up & read a good book. In addition, we have 2 storage areas (good for your suitcases) with plenty of room to accommodate a longer stay.

    The place was nice, clean, and had everything we needed. The surrounding area is beautiful with a great view from the porch. Linda is an amazing and friendly host who took care of every detail, making sure everything was just right. An added bonus - tangelos from her trees! This place is an hour away from the San Diego airport and attractions, or there are closer, more local places to visit, as well. I highly recommend Linda's place for those who want a beautiful getaway.

    Linda was amazing and very responsive to our questions. The scenery is gorgeous, and there are nice parks with creeks and lakes relatively close. The roads have lots of curves, so keep this in mind if you are driving. We loved our stay!

    My wife and I have stayed at VRBO's in Ontario, Quebec, the Maritimes, the New England States, Missouri and Arkansas this year before coming to the Barndominium in Valley Center California. I rated some of those stays a 5 and now I regret it because the Barndominium surpasses even the best of them by a wide margin. Our hosts were professional but they went way beyond to kindness, generosity and friendship. The views were spectacular right to a view of Mount Palomar and the observatory. The bed was awesome and our space was decorated with a gentle homey touch. From the first night we felt right at home and enjoyed every minute of our 11 days.

    We stayed for a week. I wanted to be somewhere serene, yet near everything we were hoping to do while down in the area. This definitely ticked all of the boxes and I'm so happy we chose to stay here. The property is absolutely gorgeous, the parking was easy, the drive was twisty and turny, but totally expected. We'll definitely stay here again if we head down south for another vacation. :)Bedroom was clean and spacious, the open windows provided a breeze that kept everything cool all day long. The couch pulled out into a full bed. They had all kinds of extras, just in case you forgot anything, including condiments, salt, pepper, spices.. all kinds of pots and pans, dishes, cups, etc. Three different types of coffee makers (keurig, nespresso and regular drip) plenty of towels, BBQ, desk area to setup computers.. it was beyond perfect for our needs. My only complaint would have been the dishwasher didn't work so well, but I have OCD, so I don't think that counts!! LOL!

    Had a great stay. Linda & Larry have a beautiful place to stay. They clearly care about their guests experiences (even fresh filtered water jugs in the fridge so you don’t need to buy or bring your own). Every amenity well thought out, with the perfect combination of modern upgrades & a cozy, comfortable country feel. Appliances are top level. Beautifully decorated. Wonderful deck and patio lined with pretty plants to relax outside, with huge vista views all-around. Only issue was that I worked all day & didn’t have time to relax.Thanks L&L! Great visit!!

    This was a perfect place to stay after my half Ironman in Indian Wells. Close to everything: San Diego, Escondido for shopping, restaurants and hiking trails (Loved the Hodges Lake Crest to Coast trail) and close to the Anza Borrego Desert state park. Bed was super comfy, loved streaming Netflix with surround sound speakers and relaxing in the hot tub at night. The hosts were responsive to my few questions upon initial arrival, very friendly, but otherwise I had lots of privacy too. You won’t be disappointed with your stay here!

    My sisters and I found it to be really nice. It was very clean and everything was great. The couches are very comfortable. It was easy to sign into our own Netflix to watch a movie. The area is beautiful and really quiet. We will definitely come again. Linda is really nice and very helpful. Christie
