Great little place. Just what we hoped it would be. Close to Julian but a world away on its own stunning spot. We had everything we needed. We had a great time. Would definitely recommend.

Sheena’s tiny home was the perfect spot for our weekend in Julian. Excellent amenities, a comfy bed, and an amazing view right from the bedroom window. We would absolutely come back again!

Getaway visit
Beautiful location with lots of great places to eat and drink locally. Sheena has everything decorated with intention to purpose and to promote a sense of relaxation. Even though it was snowy, rainy, and windy which prevented us from hiking there was plenty to do and enjoy both in the house and in Julian!

Really loved our experience at the stargazers retreat! The property is secluded and very private, but easy to navigate to (and really just a few minutes outside of Julian itself.) The tiny house is cozy and has everything you'll need for a comfortable stay. The view is incredible and we really enjoyed the fire pit and comfy chairs right outside the front door. Sheena checked in by text to make sure we arrived and got settled in. Overall we had a great stay and would recommend this to anyone as a great spot for a quick getaway from the city!

We had a marvelous time. The country road was bursting with fall color as we made our way to the little cabin over looking the salton sea and the san Pasquale valley. It's super cozy and would recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet escape to Julian!
