This is my second visit, this time on my own. I have traveled all over the world and experienced some of the best wellness resorts, and was completely surprised to find this gem in my hometown of San Diego. I chose the custom retreat option and Sarah the Wellness Guide planned my entire stay. Delicious and healthy meals, massages, reiki and hypnotherapy really changed my heart and mind and brought me to a state of inner peace. I learned so much from the experience and also very much enjoyed the east meets west luxury accommodations and lake views. Highly recommended!

A 3rd visit

Reviewed By Gel619

I love Julian and when i return in 2 weeks, atleast that’s the plan, it will be my 3rd visit in a year to this amazing little motel. First it’s not in downtown Julian so you will have to drive into the cute town. Their is a pizza place across from it. I recommend if you are staying during the off season (during the week) get a kitchenette or rent the farm house as their is no place for breakfast in town. The rooms do have a small fridge so milk and cereal is an option.

Room stinks of smoke, badly!

Reviewed By M2147RXlukeb

Beautiful location, and large room, but this room smelled like grampa smokes his pipe in there when there are no guests. It was so bad, we had to open all windows and keep the fan running even though it was cold outside. Seriously, guests need to be warned of smoker friendly accomodations and warned of smoke stink rooms.

Stagecoach Trails RV Resort

Emergency response by staff

Reviewed By 985lelandh

I have resisted posting this but I can't any longer as the more people I tell this to are unbelievable as am I. We went on Thanksgiving vacation for 7 days as we did last year. My brother and his son went too with their trailer. When setting up our trailers once we got there my nephew called out to me to come over immediately. I did and my brother In law had collapsed while they were setting their trailer. My nephew is an EMT and instructed me to get his emergency bag from their truck and to call 911. He was turning blue. There is no cell service in this area so I rapidly drove up to the store/check in. Ran in and asked the guy behind the counter to please call 911 as my brother had collapsed and we have no cell service, you have a land line please call 911 ! He said no "go outside and use the pay phone" Really! asked him again and he said no go use the pay phone. No time to argue so ran out to my truck to get coins for the phone, as I haven't used one in 30 or 40 years. Ran to the phone and the guy from inside came out to help me. He did have 911 on his phone and was then helpful. Someone inside must have slapped him upside the head... Long story short, don't rely on these people to help, and my brother was sent to Escondido and is ok to day. My brother wouldn't be alive without the help of his son. Kurt
