Hi, I am Lara and have lived and worked in Ramona for nearly thirty years. We turned our little dream home into a vacation retreat in June of 2019.
What we love most about our place is the abundant wildlife that resides on the property. That, along with the breathtaking views, its almost too good to be true. It gives us great joy to share this experience with others.

Wish we had longer
My wife and I could not stop talking about how perfect this house is. It feels like we jumped into a pinterest ad for beautifully done and decorated kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms, and living spaces. It smells clean and fresh and a little like crate & barrel. We can’t get over the gorgeous views and landscaping.… This was a quick weekend trip and we SO wish we had a least a few more days.

Home away from home!
As all the other reviews have already mentioned, this place is absolutely amazing! It truly felt like home with all the amenities you could possibly need. Every small detail did not go without notice. We will absolutely be coming back and soon! Thank you Lara!
Idillic Mountain Retreat
A true escape from the city, this lake house is the best VRBO we have rented. This beautiful property, very clean and well equipped, exceeded our expectations. From the hot tub sunsets to the zipline and the endlessly entertaining birds and other wildlife, this property made for a wonderful unplugged weekend.
Recommend 100%
Only praise for this amazing property! The pictures don’t do the views justice – and I thought the pictures were amazing. The whole house is very stylish and the views from every room can’t be beat! Between watching the birds and wildlife and sitting in the hot tub at night, we wouldn’t have even needed… to go anywhere else. With the close proximity to San Diego as well as the reasonable road trip distance to Joshua Tree, this is the perfect location. I would recommend this property to anyone. AMAZING!

Nothng short of amazing!!!
Lara’s beautiful small ranch home is absolutely gorgeous! We’ve stayed in a number of rentals, but few compare to the attention to detail and overall greatness of this retreat. It sits high up on a hill and has been constructed so that you are surrounded by gorgeous views on three sides as far as the… eye can see. One can sit in the sparking clean hot tub and enjoy the views of the hills and lake after rinsing off in the glorious outdoor shower. The interior of the home is very well appointed- the beds were very comfortable with high quality linens, the towels soft, everyhting was clean and ready for use. The gourmet kitchen has everything needed to make amazing meals- which we took full advantage of as we were “self quarantining” there during the CVOID-19 outbreak. It’s a fantastic place to spend a few nights. We can’t recommend it enough!! Lara’s place will remain on the top of our “go to” list. Thanks Lara!! Read more “Nothng short of amazing!!!”
Five Stars!
Exceptional & Outstanding!!! Our 14th stay at an AirBnB and this was the BEST! The indoor and outdoor space exceeded our expectations. It was the best, well equipped kitchen we’ve experienced. The proximity to incredible wineries is unmatched. This property is the definition of peace and relaxation…from the mattress to the hot tub and nature… and the quiet! Clean and immaculate! FIVE STAR EXPERIENCE!!! Read more “Five Stars!”
