About this property

Entire place

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

Quiet mountain getaway that is centerally located from coast to desert.

1100 sq ft, one bedroom guest house with an open floor plan that includes a large indoor, circular sunken fireplace and lots of privacy on three acres is located on a designated 'Native America Heritage Site'. This property has one of the largest Mortero collections in the county (where early Native Americans used the local rocks to grind their grains and medicines). Set among mature Live Oaks, Manzanita and various pine trees, this spacious and serene getaway will take your breath away! We are close enough to enjoy everything that San Diego has to offer but a world away from the traffic and congestion of the city.

There is just so much you can do year round - Mountain biking, hiking, fishing. Besides the beach and all the water activities, you can also venture into the desert on ATVs or Dune Buggies.

Live music at all levels from concerts to cafes, Balboa Park, fine arts,
fine dining and, of course, the San Diego Zoo, Safari Park and SeaWorld.

Norwegian Woods is also a prime location for artists to spend time writing and painting as the grounds are an inspiration for quiet creativity.

For the romantic, it's an opportunity to come together in a natural, peaceful setting. Isn’t it good…Norwegian Wood.

Property is in a beautiful area. The house was truly one-of-a-kind. The sunken living room / fireplace was a trip back in time — groovy! The expansive grounds were a treat. The owner’s house was on the property but privacy was never an issue. The weather, while we were there, was perfect. There were plenty of things to do and explore in the area. We drove through the spectacular blooming desert. One or two quibbles: kitchen could have used salt& pepper, a signal booster for the Wi-Fi wouldn’t have gone amiss and though coffee was provided there was no creamer or sweetener. But, overall, we would highly recommend this place to any and all.

Wonderful mountain getaway!

Great stay in a secluded small mountain community. This is our second stay at this property and we love it even more. Really cozy place with the unique fireplace and comfortable beds. Love the outdoor space for the dogs to run around. Hosts are very responsive. They are on the property, but still feels like there is privacy at the same time. Will definitely stay again!

The photos in listing do not do this lovely cabin justice. It is a wonderful property. Cabin is roomy, has excellent amenities and was in a great location to explore the surrounding areas. The yard is expansive and beautiful with lots of nooks to relax in. Cabin is located very near to the main home of the property owners, but still feels very private.
