stayed in the lodge (room #6) as the cottages were all booked. the room was nice and comfortable with a huge balcony. we had dinner at the onsite restaurant and the food was really good. also the fact you could leave your vehicle parked at the hotel and walk down to main street was a huge plus because driving around and trying to find parking on the streets was a mess.

Staff were friendly, hot breakfast was delicious. Definitely will be going back to spend more time and enjoy all Julian has to offer.
We enjoyed the room we booked very much. Very relaxing, quiet, secluded room. Loved it so much we ate $300 for early cancellation on previous reservations in San Diego to stay in the room one more night before starting our 5 hour drive back home.

Loved our stay here. The people were welcoming and friendly. Most comfortable queen bed we’ve ever had. Very cozy.
Only complaint is the hot water could fluctuate quite drastically during showers.
