Cactus Garden Cottage…Best Location!!

Paradise found! This exquisitely decorated and secure getaway with gorgeous desert gardens and views for miles offering quiet and serene nights is the perfect antidote to crowds and noise. Kick back and relax in this calm, stylish space in a fabulously located spot in Fallbrook, CA which is a short drive to the ocean, Temecula wine region, Bonsall and Oceanside. The very best of Southern California living on an elegant estate with secure off street parking inside a walled and gated compound. We have five rescue dogs on the property. They are very friendly and are the official welcoming party. If you have an issue with dogs it’s best that you find other accommodations. We want our guests to feel comfortable. We have over 150 five star reviews across two platforms and the dogs are the highlight of those reviews along with our gardens.

We enjoyed our stay and would return if we are ever back in Fallbrook. Comfy bed and spacious cottage. We loved meeting Ranger and another of the pups. Well appointed kitchen and close to Fallbrook town center. Easy check in and out too.

We had an excellent 2 night stay in this cute little cottage. We came up for a Friday afternoon wedding and were able to check in a little early to freshen up and change beforehand. Thank goodness, because it was pouring down rain! Margaret quickly responded to our questions and gave a great winery recommendation. The house was exactly as pictured, and the location was perfect. Would definitely stay again, especially since we joined 2 wine clubs while we were up there!

We had a great getaway. Beautiful property with a cute garden. Easy to navigate. The cottage is much bigger than I expected. Margaret was always available when we had questions. Very close to the freeway. We had so much fun exploring in Temecula.

Charming California Chaparral Cottage

From the cottage to the grounds, this is a darling place to enjoy Fallbrook country. The cottage is roomy, clean, and nicely decorated. You really have everything you need. The garden is refreshing, and wait until you see the sunset! Magical!

This property was all we expected. Relaxing and very quiet! We were able to come in and out as described. The unit was nice and clean. The only problem was the TV did not work but honestly we just need a time to unwind and disconnect. Worked out well! Thank you to our host/s.

One over night stay

We only stayed one night as My husband and I had a friends birthday party in Oceanside. The home is approx. half an hour drive time to Oceanside. The home is exactly as listed, very cozy and comfortable. The owner was lovely and her fur babies are welcoming. We wish we could have stayed longer. Close to the freeway and Temecula. We went wine tasting the next day, have a great time.
