About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

#10. Fox's Hillside Hideaway - with Firepit & Fireplace

Cabin #10 is a stylishly furnished and modestly spacious. It is one of our premium stand-alone cabins which, like all our other cabins, has been completely remodeled. It is nestled on a hillside closer to the forest which offers more privacy, but also beautiful partial views of the valley below through the majestic oak and cedar trees. There's loads of filtered sunlight to set the mood. To make your stay even more memorable, we offer a wood-burning fireplace, a full kitchen, large flat screen TV, and a cozy reading nook. Along with a huge balcony, we have patio furniture for convenient lounging opportunities to get your communing with nature on!

Additionally, this is one of 11 cabins at San Diego Mountain Lodge located at Hideout Mountain- a boutique retreat destination on 40 acres of unspoiled wilderness with an unbelievably cool, one-of-a-kind historic bar and grill called Josie’s Hideout Saloon. Open Friday-Sunday till 5, with live music every weekend, weather permitting. Ask about renting out Josie's Hideout Saloon for your next epic event, wedding, reunion, corporate retreat/training or biker get together! No gathering too small! Your live music stage awaits!
Don't think that our backcountry locals are the only wildlife around here! This place is full of wild animals like deer, fox, raccoons, bats, ground squirrels and chipmunks. Once night falls, keep your ear's peeled for our local pack of coyotes while you star gaze under some of the darkest skies in San Diego County! We're also very proud to be a birder's paradise with more woodland birds here than you can shake a stick at! How about a chance to see(and hear!) turkeys, owls, scrub jays, cardinals, wood peckers, hawks, vultures and even the Western Tanager to name a few! Stroll the grounds and let us know what you discover!

We love to encourage our guests to unplug and unwind, but in case you want to Netflix and chill, we have all the modern comforts of home covered here too. The fully stocked kitchen has all the essentials to cook a delicious home-cooked meal (once you go to the market first!) and a Keurig coffee machine for that morning cup o' joe. There is a shared outdoor fire pit to enjoy the incredible surrounding landscape, and offers the perfect place to enjoy a glass of wine after a day of activities with friends and loved ones. Park it right there! Private parking spaces will accommodate any two large vehicles.
Hideout Mountain really is your go-to for the ultimate get away destination for a retreat, festival, reunion or just a romantic weekend with a loved one. Invite your friends and make it more the merrier! We are just 18 minutes from Julian and down the road from the Santa Ysabel Business District. We are also uniquely situated as a hub for popular biking, hiking, boating, fishing and motorcycle riding. Our spacious property is the perfect place to BBQ, entertain, play outdoor games or just relax and enjoy the breathtaking views of Lake Henshaw, Palomar Mountain & the spectacular valley below! We are only minutes East from Lake Henshaw Resort which offers fishing, rental boats, camping, a general store for groceries open till 4pm Mon./Wed., closed Tues. and from 7am-7pm Thurs.-Sun. They also have a popular pizzeria restaurant/cafe which is closed Monday/Tuesday., but open till 8pm the rest of the week. Call ahead just to be sure

More importantly, we not only have Josie's Hideout Saloon & Grill with it's outdoor live music pavilion, there's also San Diego Mountain Lodge! Again, we are dotted with 11 cabins, 2 retro campers and the historic Adobe Lake View Retreat House. In total, we have over 26 beds that could potentially accommodate over 21 couples and up to 5 singles for a total of nearly 50 people with a few couch crashers! With our expanding campground and RV spaces, even more people could join in on a unique event here just waiting to be organized! Hit us up with any questions. We want to help make your Hideout dreams come true!

Great Getaway Up The Hill!
We had a great time at the property. Nice and relaxing. Clean. We did notice the hard water which made showering kind of gross but that still doesn’t change the fact that we will return!

Nice weekend getaway, close enough, but far away!
Perfect accommodations for just the two of us and our dog. Very nice two hour hike only a few miles away and less than 20 minutes into Julian! Wonderful view of lake Henshaw, and tremendous responsiveness from staff when ever minor needs arose. Hospitality was terrific as they are on site. Staff check in periodically. Highly recommend!

Secluded, relatively quiet, and "woodsy" property. The cabin was charming. Town of Julian is a short drive away. Very easy and convenient check-in/check-out process.

Short Relaxing Getaway
Booked the unit last minute due to my previous plans falling through. The host was very responsive and gave clear directions (I would have gotten lost finding place if not for Alan's directions) and check in and out procedures. The cabin was very cute and clean. It was fully stocked with everything I needed. It was the perfect place for a quiet, peaceful getaway. I would definitely recommend staying here!

Cabin was incredibly clean and well stocked for two. The AC worked great. Glad it did because most windows were screen less. Weird? Either way, loved the place and will return. Thanks to host Alan for all his help. Sincerely, Sig L
