Julian Castle Hotels

"Is a hidden Jem. "

"The house is spacious and comfortable. The views are incredible. The property is private and quiet and just a five minute drive into town. Perfect location. We would definitely stay at the property again. Highly recommend. "

"We were pleasantly surprised about Apple Tree Inn! We were staying in Julian for 2 nights, and we had a good time! The place was clean with a great rustic feel (no bugs either! We thought we would have to fight critters due to the area). It is right next and across the street from some restaurants so you have easy access to food, and staff were attentive (through messaging) if we ever stay again, we will definitely look into staying here again"

"The staff is very personable and friendly. The place is really peaceful and I love the theme. I had a great time and I am planning to visit again soon. Thank you!"

"I will be back and recommend anyone to come here. The only thing I could not find was an outside place to sit and enjoy the evening. The only place I found was on a balcony in front of another room. Perhaps a place across the parking lot?"

"This is our third year staying and it’s always clean, cozy, and perfect for a family stay."

"When my husband and I found this home on VRBO, it looked nice and was a decent price. So we booked our stay for our anniversary. We noticed right away after booking that the owner Rick and his property supervisor Maria were great about responding quickly. As soon as we got inside, we realized what a gem we had found. And although I would love to gatekeep this rental, the owner and his rental rep and this home are just too awesome not to leave a fabulous review. This property is one acre of amazing views of Lake Cuyamuca, fabulous spots for stargazing, birdwatching, wildlife and relaxation. We had breakfast on the balcony while watching chipmunks and birds galore. The bed was comfortable and the linens were very high quality. They even provided robes for us. How awesome! This location is a quick drive to local dining but this home is fully stocked with anything you need to cook whatever meals you’d like. The restroom was nicely appointed with toiletries. The spa was perfect after a hike to nearby Green Valley Falls. We loved the view from the lookout deck at the top of the hill and the views from the porch and tree deck. Near the street level there is even a cabana with two chase loungers and a big screen tv. If you are looking for a place to relax, reconnect with nature and unwind, look no further. Thank you Rick and Maria, We can not wait to come back!"

"This property sits at the edge on a hill, the views are great. Its beautiful, quiet, very clean and very well stocked with all the necessities, from plenty of towels in the rooms to soups, creamer and coffee in the kitchen. They have a variety of games for the family in the common areas as well as a nice pool table and a great fireplace. Only thing that was a bit uncomfortable for me was the placement of the window unit in our room, it's right by the bed due to where the window sits, it was pretty loud at night and kinda kept me up, updating them to mini splits would be heaven! Overall it was a really nice stay. Would love to come back!"

"Julian Hotel was exactly what we had expected and hoped for.What an incredible history! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and only wish we had had more time to relax and fully appreciate the wonderful breakfast we were served in the morning. "
