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.

This Property is great for small family reunions, small church retreats, friend's gatherings, small business retreats, and other peaceful, quiet getaways.
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!"
