La Casa Del Zorro Resort & Spa

8/10 Good
"The pool and spa adjacent to our room were in disrepair. Stained, missing tiles. Not what I was expecting in a “resort”. We had a mobility accessible room but the bed was not within ADA standards, it was way too tall. We were given a step stool so I could use the bed, but that isn’t ideal. The low nap carpet made it a bit difficult to use my wheelchair."

"This lodge is in a beautiful location with expansive views of the mountains around Julian, CA. The room was large with a pleasant bathroom with skylight. There is air conditioning in every guest room. The large living room has a TV (so do the rooms) as well as a billiard table. The kitchen was spacious and the hosts provided eggs, bread, milk, bananas, and ramen soup bowls for the guests. The lodge is small with only a few rooms so it is quiet and allows each guest to interact with the others as they wish. I would definitely stay here again."
