You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

# 1. Bluebird's Nest - Studio Cabin W/ Fireplace

Cabin #1 is a stylishly furnished, spacious & modest stand-alone cabin which, like all our cabins, has been completely remodeled. It is nestled on a hillside close to the forest which offers a perfect buffer from the huslte and bustle, but also beautiful partial views of the valley below through the majestic oak trees. There's loads of filtered sunlight to set the right mood and to make your stay even more memorable, we offer a wood-burning fireplace, a fully stocked kitchen, large flat screen TV, and a cozy reading nook. Along with a huge balcony, we have patio furniture for convenient lounging opportunities to commune with nature!

This is one of 11 cabins at San Diego Mountain Lodge located at Hideout Mountain- a boutique retreat destination on 40 acres of unspoiled wilderness with an unbelievably cool, one-of-a-kind historic bar and grill called Josie’s Hideout Saloon. Open Friday-Sunday till 5, with live music every weekend, weather permitting. Ask about reserving Josie's Hideout Saloon for your next once-a-year(or lifetime?!) event. No gathering too small! Your live music stage awaits! Your live music stage awaits! Imagine delicious catering options, DJs, a fog machine and disco balls! What are you waiting for?! Sound exciting enough? Keep reading for more details!
Don't think that our backcountry locals are the only wildlife around here! This place is full of wild animals like deer, fox, raccoons, bats, ground squirrels and chipmunks. Keep a steady eye open for rattlesnakes, badgers and mountain lions, oh my! Make some noise so they know you're coming. Be not afraid, they're honestly more scared of us than we are of them! And once night falls, keep your ear's peeled for our local pack of coyotes while you star gaze under some of the darkest skies in San Diego County! We love to encourage our guests to unplug and unwind, but in case you want to Netflix and chill, we have all the modern comforts of home covered here too.
The fully stocked kitchen has all the essentials to cook a delicious home-cooked meal (once you go to the market first!) and a Keurig coffee machine for that morning cup o' joe. There is a shared outdoor fire pit to enjoy the incredible surrounding landscape, and offers the perfect place to enjoy a glass of wine after a day of activities with friends and loved ones. Park it right there! Private parking spaces will accommodate any two large vehicles.
Hideout Mountain really is your go-to for the ultimate get away destination for a retreat, festival, reunion or just a romantic weekend with a loved one. Invite your friends and make it more the merrier! We are just 18 minutes from Julian and down the road from the Santa Ysabel Business District. We are also uniquely situated as a hub for popular biking, hiking, boating, fishing and motorcycle riding. Our spacious property is the perfect place to BBQ, entertain, play outdoor games or just relax and enjoy the breathtaking views of Lake Henshaw, Palomar Mountain & the spectacular valley below!

We not only have Josie's Hideout Saloon & Grill with it's outdoor live music pavilion, there's also San Diego Mountain Lodge! And with 11 cabins, 2 retro campers and the historic 5 bedroom Adobe Lake View Retreat House, we have over 26 beds that could potentially accommodate over 21 couples and up to 5 singles for a total of nearly 50 people with a few couch crashers! With our expanding campground and RV spaces, even more people could join in on a unique event here just waiting to be organized! Hit us up with any questions. We want to help make your Hideout dreams come true!

second visit - would come again ONLY IF......
Great little place, cute, fun location, clean and excellent value; this was our second visit - would come again ONLY IF high iron/Sulphur levels in water are resolved. Not pleasant using water that tastes like you have blood in your mouth and smells like rust ALL the time & Sulphur odor at times. This water problem has been an issue for some time with the cabins since there is a little sign about it and you can also see the rust stains on shower tile, ect. I appreciated the quick help /responses to try & remedy the problem but unfortunately running the water for a long time did not cut it. We had rank water the whole time for our three day stay. We will not visit again unless water problems are fixed, sad to say ....

It's a really cute cabin in the woods... nice little get-away from city.
It's in the woods, but close to a biker bar. They were amazingly respectful of noise and were gone by 6PM on a Saturday night, so while the live entertainment was nice during the day and into early evening, it was quiet and peaceful at night. The cabin has all the basic needs and is very comfortable.

The area was serene and easily accessible. I wish the view to the wide open space was a little more visible since the trees were so full, but understandable based on weather conditions. I would return.

The surroundings are gorgeous and peaceful. It is a nice property surrounded by nature and was very quiet. I usually don't leave bad reviews, but there were a few missing pieces here that were sort of surprising. First, I had a question about possibly checking in early because my friend and I were rushing up in a tricky situation. I emailed and texted the host, but never received a reply. I would have understood if the answer was no, but I received no answer at all. Next, there was no floormat inside, which sounds petty to point out, but on a very stormy day, this was very noticeable and just sort of a strange omission. There was only one bath towel in the whole place. For a place that stated it is great for couples, this also made no sense. We looked everywhere and couldn't find even a spare washcloth. There are no extra blankets anywhere that we could see. I see storage space is limited, but in the winter, an extra blanket should be standard. The place is very small. The space is organized creatively, but I don't believe a large person would be able to even fit in the bathroom and especially not in the shower. Last, the bathroom reeked of bleach. On one hand I thought it's good that there's evidence of cleaning, but it was difficult to even be in the bathroom for any period of time. Maybe because it was a stormy day, it wasn't possible to air it out. In the kitchen, there was only one large pot and one skillet. No kettle for boiling water, and no coffee filters or any method for coffee aside from the most wasteful device ever invented, the Keurig. Do bring your own french press, teapot, etc if you don't want to use the Keurig. Overall it's a nice property and i appreciate that the cleaning deposit is refundable, but the place needs some fine tuning.

Small cozy cabin in a good location in close proximity to Julian, Ramona, and other popular areas. Check-in/out was simple. Recommend for couples looking to take a vacation. We brought our dogs along and it was perfect for us!
