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 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.

This place is nearly perfect and the only reason I gave it four stars instead of five is because I booked it through Expedia in the information on check-in doesn’t translate over very well. The email I got said an access code, but I thought it was for the door not the gate. I thought it was the number, but you actually have to press pound at the gate. Also, the check-in instructions didn’t include which door to go through. Otherwise, it is such a lovely place and very peaceful.

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!

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!

The Cactus Garden itself is exquisite. Multiple varieties of well tended plants and comfortable seating placed throughout to allow one to enjoy the sunset and stars at night. The Cottage is well appointed with tasteful decor and one of the best beds ever in a booked stay. Linens and towels are top of the line, felt extremely luxuriated. No issues with my stay, will definitely return next time I go to San Diego area.

Relaxing and quiet

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.

Perfect location !!!!

We stayed here while visiting friends and family from Valley Center, Carlsbad, Fallbrook, Temecula and Murrieta. This place is centrally located with easy access to the freeway. Her grounds are beautifully landscaped and the casita was cute and well suited for us. The casita is secluded from the rest of the estate in a quiet neighborhood. It couldn't be more than 5 miles from "Old Town Temecula", a great area to explore and get a bite to eat. This will be our first choice while staying in the area in the future. The owner reminded us that there is special prices during the week.
