About this property
Serenity in the Woods - Beautiful Log Cabin on 2 acres with AC & WiFi & Xbox
Escape to this adorable cabin on 2 tree-filled acres in picturesque Julian. Perched atop the beautifully peaceful Pine Hills community and just a short drive to the quaint town of Julian. This one-of-a-kind hand-hewn custom log cabin which features two large master bedrooms, a picturesque window room (with bed), and a loft (with bed). the cabin includes a king bed, 2 queen beds, 2 full beds, and a cozy futon. Sleeping 8 comfortably (and 1 more on the couch if you want!). The kitchen is large and great for cooking.
This cabin is perfect for families or groups of friends. Enjoy the convenience of 3 bathrooms (2 full and one with a dry sauna, shower, and a large bathtub). Stay connected with WiFi, watch tv, stay comfortable with heating and AC, and take care of laundry with a washing machine. Iron out any wrinkles before heading out to explore the fabulous surroundings which include a charming downtown area and local hiking trails.
This is such a special place. Relax on the porch with your morning coffee, lounge or nap in the porch-swing-bed, take nice walks on the winding roads, and gaze out at the stars at night (very little light pollution!). Also, it's not uncommon to see wild turkey, and deer during your stay!
We hope you enjoy what our place and Julian has to offer.
NOTE: Keep in mind this community is surrounded by nature. The area strikes a nice balance between a safe community feel and a sense of being "out in the woods", but not isolated. There are neighbors in the community, but from almost all areas of the property other cabins/houses cannot be seen, given we're atop the hill and have 2 acres). You'll experience a nice sense of peaceful privacy. With the surrounding nature and our hand-hewn log cabin (with its charming quirks), comes a bit of a rustic experience, but with the comforts of home; Air Conditioning, heat, WiFi, TVs, and all the cozy amenities shown and listed above. Be prepared for the possibility of some bugs around the property (might wanna bring some bug spray in the summer months). This is nothing new to those who've stayed in cabins in wooded areas, but it's worth mentioning:) We look forward to hosting you! If you have questions don't hesitate to ask!
NOTE: No outdoor fires. It's the law in Julian. There is a large fireplace inside the you're free to enjoy; stop by and grab some Duraflames or some wood bundles often sold at the local gas stations or corner market in downtown Julian.
Julian is home to this cabin. Julian Pioneer Museum and Julian Historical Society are cultural highlights, and some of the area's attractions include California Wolf Center and Laguna Mountain Recreation Area.

Went on a girls trip and had an amazing time! It was very spacious for 8 girls, the beds were comfortable, and the kitchen was a good size for cooking.
Excellent property. Could have used additional air conditioner. Broken dishwasher. Lovely little fenced in area for dogs. And very pet friendly space:)
Such a beautiful cabin! We had a perfect time there. Secluded without feeling too isolated, the porch swing was wonderful, comfy beds, deer, turkeys and fun bird watching. We look forward to getting back there!
Wonderful stay! Perfect amount of space and the house is warm and full of character. Especially loved the kitchen and all the fun places to play for the kids in the yard.

We stayed with a big group, and it was very spacious and comfortable. The wi-fi didn't work during our stay, but my family truly enjoyed the sauna amenity.

It was such a nice home to stay in. The place was beautiful as we drove in and perfectly decorated and clean. The bathrooms and showers all worked well and the rooms and beds were plentiful. The porch swing was fun for the kiddos and the backyard had tons of fun areas for the kids to roam and for the adults to sit back and enjoy. We had deers visit us every morning of the stay!

The cabin was beautiful. It was an amazing stay for me and my family. We all enjoyed it very much and are thinking of going back! Thank you, Natalie, for letting us stay in your beautiful home. Hope to be back soon!
Property was peaceful, beautiful and the perfect setting for our staff to relax, have conversations and bonding time. Lots of places to reflect. Loved the swings and the porch areas outside.
Close to a lot of places to eat and spend time! Beautiful drive to cabin. Lots of critters and animal sightings while there which was awesome watching from Inside and the porch. Amazing kitchen!
Our whole family greatly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful rustic cabin in the woods. We had fun on the tree swings and watching the local wildlife that visited the property, including blue jays and wild turkeys. We would love to visit again in the future.
The Wattsville Cabin is EASILY the most beautiful property on the hillside. The cabin had everything our family needed, was clean, cozy and comfortable. 8 minutes to Julian main town which was lovely. The whole family agrres we cant come back soon enough <3
Place was amazing! Very clean and unique. Peaceful and relaxing. Host was awesome very helpful and answered all questions. Had an amazing 50th birthday there and couldn't be happier
It was a very nice and relaxing stay. The location was peaceful and relatively easy to get to from San Diego. The house was very clean, open space, and the living room was cozy with a nice wood burning fireplace. The kitchen was nice and big, great for hanging out during family dinner prep. The outdoor space was peaceful. I would recommend staying here to others that would like a nice getaway from the city.
Met our needs in every way. Clean. Very good communication. A unique property with a great quirky Julian vibe. Quiet and peaceful. My favorite place was the porch bed swing-spent many hours whiling away the day having great conversations with my sons.
Me and five of my girlfriends rented this house for a Halloween/birthday celebration. It exceeded all expectations. The forest set the most beautiful backdrop to this stunning rustic luxury chic house. This place is magical. We all wanted to stay longer and already booked another trip because we just didn’t want it to end.
We thought it was a beautiful house with a ton of character. It’s just what you imagine a mountain house would be as far as wood ceilings, beautiful fireplace, and tucked into the trees. The house had a lot of space and was cozy. One of the upstairs beds wasn’t great but was ok for the one night. Overall would highly recommend.
Rustic and quaint, but comfort levels were questionable
Extreme cold in the house , uncomfortable beds were really the main reason for my three stars. But host responsiveness was great. Rustic and charms were there for sure and appreciated the use of the sauna, which was a nice touch
Host was very accommodating and forthcoming with information. Home was lit up and fire started when we arrived. Julian experienced a safety power outage due to high winds. Our host was available to whatever we needed to deal with the issue.
