GET AWAY from the hustle & bustle of everyday life and spend quality time together in our Country Barndominium located in Valley Center, California in San Diego County. We are nestled among the lush citrus. avocado groves, vineyards and horse ranches. You will often hear the sounds of Hawks and Eagles soaring through the blue skies from the PRIVATE DECK of this beautiful & spacious PRIVATE 1 BR - 1BA, full kitchen with a fabulous 180 degree mountain & sunset views. We are out here on almost 3 Acres so our neighbor properties are all spaced well. This Spacious & private Barndominium is .located out in the country down a country road. where there is no light pollution and we look at Mt. Palomar where the world famous Palomar Observatory is located. Downstairs, there is a private patio area with a BBQ, Spa, Seating with a grassy area to play games with a table to enjoy BBQing and eating food outdoors. . We offer a full kitchen with everything you would need including 3 coffee makers. During the spring we offer to fruit lovers, Tangelos, Tangerines right off our trees. We respect guests privacy but we are on the property (NOT in the rental area) if you need us, we are a text away.
ACTIVITIES / ATTRACTIONS / THINGS TO DO - CLOSE TO SOOOO MUCH! yet out and away.!! Only 10 Min. to easy freeway accessibility leading you to San Diego Zoo and Safari, Sea World, Legoland, 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 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.
PRIVATE DECK with a great 180 degree mountain / sunset and grove views. Sit out and relax on cushy deck furniture watch the hawks and take in the peace and tranquility surrounding you.

Please consider purchasing travel insurance to protect yourself in the event you need to cancel your trip.
This property is professionally cleaned with attention to detail before each guest arrives.

At dust, wait for the beautiful sunsets, then after dark, take in the majesty of the star-filled skies. There’s also nothing like an evening in a rural area when there is a full moon, as it illuminates the darkness. The sound of coyotes makes for beautiful evening music.

The home was spotless. It is bright and open with amazing views from all the windows. I loved the front yard with the white picket fence and the roses, but the fenced in back yard was also amazing for the children to hang out in. It was so nice to escape from the city while still being close to the city. The home was very well stocked.

This is a tiny home on wheels. 240 ft² but a fantastic layout with a bedroom on one end with a full size bed and closet. It has a door for privacy which leads into the kitchen and then the living room that has a futon couch that folds out into a full size bed. On the opposite end is a bathroom with Good size standing shower.
We have a large TV in living room and smaller smart TV in bedroom both wall mounted for optimal space.
Unit has a mini split ac and heating system that does a great job and is very quiet.
Water pressure in kitchen sink is low, but bathroom and shower is good. water heater is only a 6 gallon water heater so showers cannot be very long. A 15 min wait between showers is recommended.
Everything in tiny home is electric except for stove and oven which is run off propane. We have a backup propane tank to make sure we do not run out. If it runs out just message us and we will do the swap real quick.
Tiny home has a robot vacuum if you want the place vacuumed while you are out enjoying all San Diego has to offer.
The full size deck gives a glimpse of the valley view and during some winters snow on the mountain tops.
The night skies in Valley Center are amazingly clear and a beautiful site nearly every night.
Something to be aware of, this is a dog kennel and next door is a dog kennel. There will be occasional barking. The dogs do pretty well sleeping through the night but there is a lot of excitement on the property at around 7am when they are let out for play time and around 3pm when they are getting fed. If you are the type who likes to sleep in, this might not be the place for you. If you are easily irritated by noise this might not be the place for you. The tiny home is about 30 or 40 yd away from the kennel area. I have had long term tenants and Customers stay at the tiny home and none of them have ever had an issue with noise. We provide a Bluetooth speaker for those who like to sleep to music or white noise
Also, if you don't do well in tiny spaces this may not be for you. This tiny home is 8 feet wide by 30 feet long, so it is by definition a tiny home. We have made it fairly spacious by keeping it simple and minimalistic, but know some people don't do well in small places and want people to be very aware if size.
Tiny home is fully private for the guest and has its own yard. We do not allow guests to tour the property outside of the private yard without staff chaperone for liability reasons.
We do contactless check in. We prefer to stay invisible for you and let you enjoy your stay. When you arrive please message so we know it's you and not some squatters. 🤣 We are always a phone call or message away. We prefer contact via VRBO app but have phone number listed in tiny home for emergencies.
if interested in tour of facility or interacting with dogs or pups please let us know in advance and we will coordinate. we usually accommodate puppy playtime between noon and 2pm IF we have puppies. If not, we will bring some of our friendly French Bulldogs out for you to meet and play with.
The tiny home is 2 sliding doors, but none lock with keys, they both lock from inside. No need to worry as we are in a very safe area. We are a stone throw away from the sheriff's department and the entire property has surveillance (no cameras in tiny home or facing its windows and/or doors.)
Also, we are conveniently located near Horizen fuel center which is the cheapest gas in So Cal. Usually gas prices are .40 to .60 cents cheaper on avg, so fill up there as often as possible.
For EV vehicles, we can accommodate occasional charging as we have a Tesla wall charger on property.
We charge a cleaning fee for basic cleaning and decontamination which includes trash removal and laundry service. We ask that you give the place back as close to the way as you received it.
- "We had a great time at this tiny home! Ary was very attentive and we even got to play with puppies! The only thing that I would change for next time was how sound proofed the walls were. The dogs barked at almost all hours of the night so it was hard to sleep, if the house was a little more quiet at night it would’ve been perfect!" - "We really enjoyed our stay at the tiny home! Everything was as described and was super clean! The location was perfect for our needs. The host was responsive and friendly, we loved the snacks lol and the best part of all, the amazing puppies, made the stay special! Highly recommend!"

- "We had a delightful stay at this VRBO location in Valley Center. Our hosts, Debra and Mike, thought of everything. And if there happened to be anything else one might need, they were most willing to help. Communication with them was quick and easy. The directions they gave to find the place were perfect. The bed was very comfortable and there were extra pillows and blankets if needed. The outdoor patio was enormous with a stunning view. Probably one of my favorite things about the room was the fact that the bathroom had two separate vanities with a huge amount of storage (adequate storage is something sadly missing in most hotel rooms these days). Debra clearly and patiently explained and demonstrated all of the features in the room and on the patio. There was a helpful guide for local restaurants and wineries. Our stay was very short so we undoubtedly missed many features of this property that would have been worth investigating. This was altogether a beautiful and peaceful place to get away for a while. Our hosts put the icing on the cake for our weekend by letting us share some time with their newly acquired cat family (pure heaven for me, a crazy cat lady). Thank you Debra and Mike."

We have a new concept for our second tiny house - a Yurt for glamping! Our gated community offers a convenient location near everything, and our guests have been loving the breathtaking views of the sunsets, stars, ocean breeze, and off-grid feeling.
You can enjoy the entire Yurt located right by our baby lavender fields, which features a covered patio, "outdoor shower" (actually inside), and a modern compost toilet in the attached restroom by the door.
- "Was a private and cozy place " - "We had a wonderful 1 night stay here. Nice location and great star watching. " - "If you’re looking for a getaway, this is it! Highly recommend. Such a beautiful and cozy place to stay. All the privacy you need, very quiet and peaceful. All you hear is the nature around you. My boyfriend and I had such a wonderful experience. We will definitely be back. " - "Mariah and I couldn’t have enjoyed our stay more than we did. Mike was extremely helpful with check in procedures. 10/10 experience!"

Our farm is also available for small gatherings, please reach out for additional information.
- "My husband, three-year-old son, and I all stayed at the Moonrise Cottage for one night. It was a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of San Diego. The cottage itself was so idyllic and the surrounding property provided a lot of entertainment for my little one. I got a chance to enjoy the outdoor bath that overlooks the canyon, which was a magical experience. Heidi the property owner made us feel very welcome, providing us with information on local restaurants and allowing us to check in early. Overall this was a wonderful experience and I would recommend this place to anyone looking to get away. Next time I might leave the kid at home because the cottage is very romantic!"

Delightful bungalow with AIR CONDITIONING. Tangerine Cottage is surrounded by almost nothing but oxygen producing trees 24/7, if you want to get away from the smog and tensions of the city, this is it ! 20 acres of paved grove roads to walk and enjoy nature. The full kitchen has a microwave, oven, and gas stove to whip up any delightful recipes you have been wanting to try. The brick patio is a great place to have a cool drink and watch the sun go down on a quiet day.
There are restaurants within a mile or so and superb casino buffets within eight miles. The ranch is gated for privacy. Come and relax at this hideaway and be refreshed.
- "Thank you for being very responsive and for the nice place to stay." - "Very cozy and nice" - "Great cottage on nice property close to all the casinos nice stars and comfy bed" - "It was quiet and the property has sufficient amenities. First time we visit Valley Center just to check out the area. Then to find out there is nothing in the surrounded area. We wont comeback. Temecula or Fallbrook might be better with wineries to enjoy."

We are located in a gated community close to all amenities. Enjoy the breathtaking view while feeling the ocean breeze. At night, you can relax in the tranquility of the surroundings while listening to the sounds of crickets, frogs, and owls.
Experience the dream of living in a tiny house. The house features a full bathroom, a loft with a queen-sized bed, a pull-out sofa bed, and a seating area.
We have two other AirBNBs on our 5-acre property, but rest assured that they are all very private.
Take pleasure in the breathtaking view of sunsets, stars, and the refreshing ocean breeze. Experience a unique off-grid feeling with convenient access to all your needs. If you are considering purchasing a tiny house, we invite you to try ours. Our 400 sqft tiny house comes with a spacious 480 sqft deck, perfect for dining while enjoying stunning valley views. Come and enjoy the peacefulness of nature from our front porch.
To ensure our privacy, we will leave a map in the tiny house to show you where you are welcome to walk to, example, the orange orchard and by the lavender fields.
We live on the property but would like to provide you the best privacy. We will respond to your messages and provide help when needed. You probably will see us playing fetch with our dogs, but we will respect your privacy.
It feels far far away, but it's really close to everywhere. The closest store is located in the RV park and the golf resort which are about 5mins away from the community gate.
The unlit community road is well paved. Our own neighborhood only has 12 residences and some of them are farmers. Please respect our neighbors.
In less then 15 minutes, we are close to golf, hiking, restaurants, wine tasting, local breweries, biking, fishing, casinos and many more. 40 minutes to the ocean, 30 minutes to Safari Park, many many Vineyards and 15 minutes to the famous Yellow Deli!
Coffee machine and microwave are provided.
The comfortable memory foam mattress is on the loft so it involves walking up steep stairs. Remember it's a Tiny house so the bathroom is a little small and may be difficult for people over 6 feet tall.
- "The tiny house was extremely cute. The owners are very kind and are quick to respond to any questions. However the space could be made more comfortable even though the heater was available and ran, the heat escaped through the roof "

Our dome is a half-moon structure that features a king-size memory foam bed and an outdoor shower under a pepper tree, while the deck provides stunning views of the hilltop. We're located in a gated community close to all major attractions, and guests can enjoy beautiful sunsets, starry skies, ocean breeze, and bird watching (21 different kinds). The dome is 200 sqft with AC/heater, an outhouse, and outdoor showers, making it a perfect choice for glamping.
******Remember this glamping, we are in nature and NOT in the city. While we work very hard to keep the dome clean it’s possible a bug may sneak in. (IE: Spider, ladybug, ants, or even a bee). If you happen to see a bug and don’t want to take care of it yourself we are happy to remove them. Also, because we are not in the city, there is also wildlife such as coyotes, rabbits, foxes, skunks, groundhogs, squirrels, moles, and others. If you feel uncomfortable then we suggest finding a place in the city.
We are located in the gated residential neighborhood. Please stay within our 5-acre property and respect other guests.
You will need cars to get here~ Please let us know before you share the codes with the share-ride driver or food deliverers. Thank you
- "The Dome was amazing! This was our second time on the property. The view is beautiful! The scenery is so peaceful. It’s extremely nice and cozy. Theres a heater if it gets too chilly. Also a fan if you need. Such an awesome spot to enjoy. We will definitely be returning. "

- "First I'll get the negative out of the way which is only a few. The master bed was horrible, low water pressure and the kitchen hot water takes about 3-4 minutes to get hot and at the time the washing machine didn't work and the master tub stopper wasn't stopping water so my wifey bath was cut short, however I did mention this to the host, and they said they would take care of all those issues, so that is wonderful. NOW for the good, which is a lot, the place is amazing. The home is so cozy, the kitchen is a dream for cooking and entertaining for sure. The 2 separate living rooms are perfect for those that wanna watch TV and chill or sit in the other room and just chat. The other bedrooms are perfect and the kids rooms are so cute. There is a touch of care and family vibes throughout the whole home. The master bedroom is huge, I mean huge. The porches are amazing and massive, a awesome place to just chill, BBQ and enjoy the outside views and amazing weather. The property itself is massive and the kids can run until they get tired. Plenty of parking for probably 20+ vehicles. OVERALL this place is the one you are looking for, close to just about everything and only 25 mins away from the new Luiseno Bike Park which was why we were there and going back here in a few weeks again with the wifey and the boys, this is where we will be staying."

Enjoy the sounds of nature when you stay in this unique place. Spa services are available for the body, mind, and spirit.
This is for two units of Avocado Bliss Retreat: the main house and the Cactus Casita (half of the barn duplex).
In the Main House, the bottom floor is for socializing with a plush living room, a new kitchen with a professional 48-inch stove, and a large dining area. There is a fully stocked tea bar and espresso machine. A beautiful bathroom conveniently located just as you come in from the pool welcomes you to shower easily after a swim. The laundry is also on the main floor.
Upstairs are 5 unique bedrooms inspired by natural elements on the property. Beneath the cotton sheets are new organic mattresses by Avocado brand, of course :). Two bedrooms come with desk setups. Wifi is accessible throughout the home and patio areas. Each bathroom models the surrounding nature and is brand new. Enjoy a relaxing bath in the low-entry deep soaking tub.
The Cactus Casita is in the barn building. The kitchen features a 4-burner stovetop, junior fridge, and toaster oven. A French press for coffee and tea is available. A beautiful bathroom welcomes you to shower easily after a soak in the saltwater hot tub.
A jasmine hedge surrounds the pool for privacy. The saltwater pool has a 3 ft shallow end and slowly deepens to 7 ft. The saltwater hot tub waterfalls into the pool. A gazebo nearby is a great spot to enjoy a morning meditation. A cozy patio setup invites you to watch the serene sunsets. Walk around the 150-tree property for delightful views or access Daley Ranch Nature Preserve on foot for hiking. There are several relaxing spots hidden around the property with hammocks or seating.
Spa Services are available for booking to enhance your visit. Amazing local practitioners will come to the property. Contact me early to reserve your services.
