Looking for serenity? This beautiful, fully stocked home has an amazing view of Lake Cuyamaca and is a short drive to the historic gold mining town of Julian. A large kitchen and dining area have access to the redwood deck which stretches the length of the house, great for enjoying the unobstructed views. Have fun playing in the game-room, taking in the incredible views, & watching the wildlife venture by! We have WIFI internet, so you can stay connected during your get-away. The space We're new to AirBnB, but we've been renting the cabin as a vacation rental for decades! Please visit our website for more background information: hansenshideaway dot com The house features two queen beds and 4 twin beds. A large kitchen and dining area is ideal for cooking and gathering together with direct access to the redwood deck which stretches the front length of the house, great for enjoying the unobstructed views. Both the master bedroom and the loft have views of the lake. A fireplace is found in the family room, along with a HDTV, Roku media streamer in "guest mode" (you use your own streaming accounts), Blu-Ray/DVD player, and surround-sound audio system with bluetooth receiver. We have over-the-air HDTV and wireless internet, but not cable/dish. In the basement you will find the game room, where everyone wants to spend their time shooting pool, playing air hockey, foosball, a vintage Super Nintendo gaming system, or many of the table games. Younger kids will love setting up giant Brio train sets or using their imagination as they build fantasy worlds with the buckets of toys available to them. A washer and dryer are also located in the basement. The kitchen is fully stocked with all standard utensils, cookware, and appliances. Linens (towels and sheets) are provided for your use. We have central air and heating for your comfort, as well as a wood burning fireplace; wood is NOT provided, so please be sure to bring your own or purchase some at the lake or in town. Please be aware that the cabin is on septic and the septic system cannot handle volume of use beyond the listed occupancy. We cannot accept requests for parties, wedding receptions, or any other gatherings of people for this reason. There is no public refuse collection and the county closed the nearby dump - most residents carry their trash out with them when they go "down the hill". Since we are not a hotel, it can be days between guest departure and when our housekeeper arrives. Trash left behind invites insects and bad smells if indoors, animals tear it apart if left outdoors. Thus, trash needs to be taken with you when you leave, which is not uncommon for cabin rentals. We have a powered trash compactor and provide bags, it does an amazing job of minimizing the size of your trash! Guest access The entire house is available to you; locked cabinets in the basement are off-limits, however, as is the shed in back of the house. Other things to note All times of the year offer something unique! Fall and winter are the most popular for the local San Diegans to visit the mountains due to the fall colors and 'Apple Days' in Julian, as well as the snow and cold weather that can come with winter. Spring can be beautiful as the hills turn deeply green and flowers are in abundance. Summer offers warm evenings that are easily spent on the deck marveling at all the stars which you just can't see from urban areas. Wildlife will visit throughout the year, including deer, wild turkey, racoons and birds of many varieties.
