Serene Sanctuary with Scenic Decks & History-Infused Mountain Escape in Pauma Valley, California

Escape to a modern-rustic sanctuary perched 3,600 feet above the world. This offers a refined glamping experience that bridges California history with mindful, off-grid living.



Located on a private ridge surrounded by the Cleveland National Forest, our tiny home is an invitation to slow down. Whether you are watching the sunset hit the Pacific Ocean from your private deck or exploring ancient trails, you’ll find a level of peace here that only Palomar Mountain can provide.



The Tiny Home

Designed with intentional minimalism and warmth, the space features:

- The Sleeping Quarters: Plush queen bed, outfitted with fresh linens and positioned to offer forest views the moment you wake up.

- Indoor-Outdoor Flow: Large glass-panelled double doors open wide to a private redwood deck, inviting the mountain breeze inside and offering front-row seats to the valley below.

- Off-Grid Power: Your unit is equipped with a dedicated solar-powered battery system. This provides reliable interior lighting and allows you to charge small electronics like phones and tablets.

- Artesian Water: Experience the purity of mountain life with water drawn from our own artesian well, a source first claimed on this land in 1892.



The Ranch Experience

As a guest, you have general access to our historic 67-acre sanctuary:

- The Yoga Deck: A short, scenic walk leads you to our valley-view deck—the ultimate spot for sunrise meditation or stargazing under Palomar’s famously clear skies.

- History at Your Doorstep: Discover the property’s deep roots, from the nearby historic mortar stones (Native American grinding rocks) to the remains of Nate Harrison’s original stone house.

- Nature Trails: Wander through oak groves and pine forests on our private trail system. Keep an eye out for local wildlife, including deer and red-tailed hawks.
