Fernweh

Holiday Rental Description

Here you have your own cabin in San Diego County, that puts you in the best location to embrace the rushing streams, wide-open spaces and majestic mountains of California. You have a true wilderness on your doorstep, but also the comforts of staying in a secure, gated community. The cabin is decked out for optimal comfort, with huge proportions, far-stretching views and a heartwarming open fireplace. Astronomy enthusiasts will enjoy studying the dark skies at night through the telescope, while sunrises are a spectacular way to start your day. Lazy days are the best here – gaze out of those huge windows, leaf through a book on the balcony, or cook a delicious meal on the barbecue, with the sounds of the wild all around. If you're feeling energetic then there are plenty of ways to get your heart pumping – hit one of the nearby hiking trails in the morning, before jumping on your bike or enjoying a spot of kayaking on Lake Cuyamaca in the afternoon. If you're craving fresh air and good vibes, this is the home for you.

*If you require wheelchair access then speak to your host before booking
*During the winter the pipes can freeze, so you will need to turn the house water off before bed and on again in the morning
