Tranquil country setting w/majestic views

Beautiful view of sunrise over a small mountain. Very comfortable couch and bed . Nice eating bar. Very responsive host, on site

Management thought of everything. Location was ultra quiet, beautiful rural setting, property extremely well kept. Treats and coffee in the room, and it was actually multiple rooms, with closable door in between for privacy. Updated decor in very good taste. Clean and neat accommodations. Comfy pillows. Great directions, easy check in and check out. Will seek them out first for availability for future trips and have told our family about them already!

Lovely space. Pics don’t do complete justice to just how lovely, cute, and thoughtful the space is. We travel a lot to the area and plan to book here for our next trip. Host is also kind and available. Great amenities and extra touches were a nice surprise.

Charming and great location. Do recommend and will love to stay there again.

This place was a little piece of paradise everything you need. Phil and Kristina are very accommodating hosts met all our needs. Shopping , restaurants, and sights close or within 30 minutes. We were impressed.

Clean, comfortable and great communication. Equipped as advertised and such a peaceful and tranquil setting.

Complete gem! The place is beautiful and is a home - cozy, restful, quiet. Phil takes the experience over the top with such generous hospitality and warmth as the host. A pleasure!

We had a perfectly comfortable five-day stay with a family of five. Phil was incredibly communicative and attentive.

The area is beautiful, the accommodation was quaint and cozy. Like being in a cabin in the woods.

Our stay at this charming Escondido cottage was absolutely wonderful! I visited with my daughter and two young granddaughters (ages 2 and 3) for a weekend wedding in San Marcos, and the location could not have been more convenient. The cottage was spotless, cozy, and beautifully maintained—complete with everything we needed for a comfortable stay.The property has such a peaceful atmosphere, with gorgeous views and thoughtful touches throughout. My granddaughters especially loved the swings, the friendly chickens, and saying “hello” to Mr. Phil, our gracious host. The fresh eggs were such a bonus!We truly enjoyed our time here and would love to return for another visit. Highly recommend this lovely retreat for anyone visiting the area!

It was outstanding! Clean and well organized.

Quiet, lovely, will stay again!

This was a wonderful place to stay—just the right size for what we needed. The location is peaceful and quiet, and the home had everything we could ask for while being out of town. The host was very responsive and communicative, always quick to answer any questions. We couldn’t have been happier with our stay and will definitely make this our first choice if we’re in the area again.

Super nice hosts.

Excellent place to stay. Very clean, quiet, clear instructions on accessing the property. We had everything we needed. Especially loved the fresh eggs. Would definitely stay here again.

House was comfortable and clean. Great location to relax between festivities!

We really enjoyed our stay. Everything we needed was already there, we were so excited to have fresh chicken eggs as a gift from the host and the beautiful happy chickens that we got to meet. I loved the garden and the swings were a hit for my grandchildren. They didn’t want to leave. We all really enjoyed our stay and the bed was so compfy, we were so grateful we didn’t have to run the ac because the windows when left open gave a fantastic cross breeze through the house. All in all we loved our stay. We would choose this home again.

Therese was a delightful hostess. While you share the home with her, she stays out of the home or in her bedroom when guests are present. Easy access to CWU, especially at graduation/move out or move in times. Quiet neighborhood. Comfortable bed. Lovely to have coffee and breakfast bread waiting in the morning.

We had a wonderful stay, They thought of everything, it was so nice and quiet and close to areas we needed to be. Phil and wife have a gem. We highly recommend a stay here. We did have opportunities to enjoy fire pit as we were on the gone. Thank you Phil and many blessings to you and your family.

Very nice effeciency type apartmemt.

Very quiet and nice location.

Thank you Phil for opening up your home to use while our house in Murrieta was under repair. What a nice area of Escondido with excellent views of the valley below. Great soaking tub and all the conveniences were appreciated. Such a nice touch to offer fresh eggs, s’mores making supplies and snacks. Great, relaxing stay just moments from my work.

We came back and stayed again like we said we would! The perfect horn from home.

Beautiful rental for our family of 4. Short drive to San Diego Safari Park. The view from the patio and the fig tree with swings was so relaxing! Easy check in and out process, reserved parking spot. In very quiet residential area. Thanks again for the Easter goodies!

This cottage is so well equipped - they thought of everything! It’s extremely comfortable and the hosts are wonderful. 100% recommend.

I really enjoyed my time here. The bed was comfortable, the amenities were great, and I was easily able to relax. Great set up with the TV and bar. The electric stove, air fryer, fridge, and microwave have you all the amenities of home. I have stayed in other VRBO's where these aspects are missing. The shower is spacious, deep, and has great water pressure. There is a bidet too which is appreciated. The chickens were awesome, and the complimentary half dozen eggs were a nice treat. Phil was a very courteous host. There if you needed him, and gave you your space if you didn't. I will be coming back next year!

So relaxing and quiet. Convenient to highway and town. Owner is so nice and easy to communicate with. Will be back!

This home was very cozy with a great atmosphere. The accommodations were excellent. I wish we would have had more time there to enjoy the lovely patio. Phil was an excellent host.

Great return visit, Phil is a Super Host!

Very quiet and clean suite…I enjoyed it. Thanks Phil

This was the perfect place for me and my dog to stay while my house was being renovated. The bed is very comfortable, the bathtub is amazing, the kitchen is well-appointed. I heard nothing but the birds and an occasional car passing by as I sat under the massive oak tree and drank my morning coffee and worked. Great communication with the owner.

We had a great stay. They have provided all the comforts of home. Everything is clean, comfortable, and cared for. We recommend staying here.

Wonderful spot to stay! I was impressed from the moment we walked in! Absolutely one of the best hosts I have ever had! Will be booking a weekend getaway with the husband!! Thank you so much!

So lovely. So homey. Relaxing. Comfortable. We were visiting local family, in a high stress situation, and it was so nice to go “home” at the end of the day and feel settled. My two dogs were welcomed with dog treats. We were welcomed with snacks, s’more’s fixing, and fresh eggs -one blue- from on-site chickens. We’ll be back!

just perfect, wish i could have stayed longer

Beautiful location. Excellent host!

The owner was incredibly communicative and accommodating for my fiancé and I plus our dog. The property is beautiful and has a great view of the town. Everything was clean and the amenities were well taken care of. They even offered us fresh eggs from their coop which was a thoughtful touch. Would definitely recommend as a place to stay in Escondido

We came to celebrate my Nephew’s wedding in Escondido and found this location near the wedding Venue. The best selling point that it was pet friendly. It was perfect to get to the rehearsal and wedding in minutes and know our fur baby was safe. It was a perfect getaway retreat with no traffic!! Would have loved to have used the fire pit but we were busy with the wedding. Definitely recommend this location for quick get away from the crazy city!!

Such a lovely place to stay! We were in town for my daughter's wedding and this location was perfect for our party if the.

Such a cute place to stay! Was perfect after days of helping relatives move. So quiet and comfortable. Super clean and amenities were great. Communication, checkin, neighborhood was wonderful as well.

Great great great time!!! Couldn’t be happier. Beautiful home and area… our host simply amazing. 10/10 will be coming back and totally recommend!!!! Again thank you to our host!

Enjoyable stay at a property that was accurately described! No surprises. Comfortable outside area as well! Property is Quiet, Clean and Comfortable. Phil is a prompt communicator and is responsive. Wouldn’t hesitate to book again in the area!
