What a magical place!! Days spent lounging poolside and evenings spent stargazing around the fire. Gourmet meals prepped in the nifty kitchen. Restful nights in gorgeous bedrooms, waking up to sunrise above you and cloud cover below you. A perfect vacation!
And as a vacation home owner myself, I completely agree with post below regarding the attention to detail by the owner. Never once did I feel like I was in a rental place - it felt like my own private resort.
PS As we flew in to San Diego my husband saw the house from the plane - that's how unique and interesting it is!! It got us very excited days before we arrived! |

There is the obvious: unparalleled views, powerful, healing energy, mountaintop isolation, fantastic pool and jacuzzi, and a bonding with nature that will settle in nicely to remind you of who you are.(In case you have forgotten).
But being a veteran of vacation home rental usage, I would like to comment on the items that further separate this from other properties, and they rest squarely in the owner's attention to details. Whether it be the high quality beds with nice bedding, super-fluffy towels, well-appointed kitchen, bathroom stocked with the basics, guest basket with chocolates and coffee, a bottle of wine in the rack, the home being immaculately clean, and everything working as it should, there is a pride of ownership and desire to have a happy guest that one does not always find in a property that could trade on its views and location alone.
I cannot recommend this property enough. |

| This little vacation home has a special place in our hearts. Very private and beautiful, yet also accessible to civilization. We had a wonderful adventure! The only con is that the pool wasn't cleaned when we arrived, but the pool man Ray came over and helped us. He was very nice. |

In January 2008 we had the pool replastered and converted to salt water. It is brand new and professional pool service is every Tuesday.

| Words cannot describe this place! The views are amazing and at night you can see every star, downtown San Diego and Tiajuana and the ocean beyond. Very comfortable and private. Took some wonderful nature walks and we leave rested and rejuvinated. Thank-you! |

| The home is in a great spot, beautiful views. The negative part was our dog getting a rattlesnake bite to her face while walking down the driveway---be very careful. |

Homeowner Response:
Fortunately this has been our only incident on the property, but certainly San Diego is in rattlesnake country, and you must always be very mindful of this when you venture into a wilderness retreat. If you bring a dog, we recommend having a leash. You will be happy to know that Debra's dog has recovered fully.

It is hard to find words to describe the time we spent in this incredible house in the clouds. It was restful, inspiring, invigorating and healing. It was like being part of the earth yet looking down at the world with awe. The only bad part was having to leave. |

| This Jamul property is unexpectedly enchanting and works its way into your heart moments after arriving. Looking down to see hawks riding the wind currents, experiencing a 360 degree view of the sunrise and sunset takes your breath away, sitting around the outdoor fire-ring to count the stars... all nature's way of filling the interior of your heart with peace and beauty at the majesty of creation. Time spent in Jamul gently restores the soul and leaves you wanting to plan a return trip to soak in its healing power. The perfect place to reflect, rest, and let your guard down. One of my favorite places on the planet. |

We discovered Jamul in April 2004 after we lost our home in the 2003 Cedar fires. Being in Jamul healed our spirits in such a powerful way, and made us remember the magick and wonder in everything around us. The mountain is covered with oak trees and boulders, and the energy is intense. When you visit Jamul, you are in for an experience.

| We stayed at this beautiful home twice last year and so look forward to our next rejuvenating visit. The energy and peacefulness hits you immediately -and the unsurpassed beauty atop your own magical mountain is indescribable. It will be an experience you'll want to repeat over and over. |
