About this property
Hummingbird Cottage A Farmstyle Retreat
Hummingbird Cottage is a unique 1 bedroom farm style cottage in the woods.
Very private
rural setting
peaceful
serene
Its a peaceful magical place to unwind
Four acre property gives you a chance to breath in the beauty of nature.
Come to San Diego County and enjoy some of the best weather in the nation. The property sits on top of a hill with beautiful panoramic views! Tucked away from the road and very private.
This place was created as a hideaway to help guests step back from the fast pace of life and take the time to decompress and be in the moment.
The cottage is about 450 square feet of farmhouse charm and roomy inside.
Hiking trails right outside your door. Away from the hustle bustle of the city in a rural setting but also close to shopping, dining amusement parks, beaches, mountains, it really is the perfect location.
Sit outside on the covered front porch and relax in the rocking chair or sit at the bistro table for alfresco meals.
Vista is said to have the third best climate in the nation!
We do not have air conditioning but we do offer plenty of fans.
Step inside to a fresh open concept living space including a full kitchen with stove,oven,butcher block counters and a farm sink.
Living room with cozy electric fireplace
Eat in kitchen table for two
Bedroom with a queen size bed, pillow top comfortable mattress, cotton and linen bedding, electric fireplace desk and tv.
Bathroom with a tub shower combo
Fresh towels shower gel and shampoo
Two giant ceiling fans
High vaulted ceilings with rustic charm
Lots of windows to let in the fresh mountain air.
Enjoy a romantic cozy evening just staying-in with the electric fireplace or hit the town and explore everything north county San Diego has to offer.
Stretch out on the lounge chairs on the deck at night and enjoy night lights in the distance.
You may get serenaded by the bullfrogs or hear coyotes owls and other wildlife here.
That’s what makes Hummingbird Cottage special.
Hope we can help you create some beautiful memories here.
PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING!

About the host

Hello travelers!
My husband Allen and I will be hosting you at a very special place called Hummingbird Cottage. We just remodeled this little guest house and decided to offer it to vacationers around the world. We would love to meet you and offer you a chance to relax and truly get away from it all.
Please read all the house rules before you book.
No visitors and only 2 registered guests. One car.
This little farmhouse is nestled in the woods on the far side of our 4 acre property in the lovely hills of Vista. Once you arrive on the top of the hill you will be in awe of the panoramic views of the country and city.
We are in a rural setting but only 5 minutes from the freeway and all shopping.
Vista is known for all of its great craft beer breweries and the second best climate in the nation!
We are in between Sea World and Disneyland in north San Diego Co and if you have never been here you are in for a treat!
There is so much to do in San Diego it is really something you have to check out for yourself.
Allen and I rescue Yorkshire Terriers and are animal lovers. We have 5 rescues now and all of them have forever homes here with us.
We also raise chickens for eggs and love to spoil our hens. The eggs they give us are incredible and we offer them for sale if we have extras. They are amazing!
You will find me at home in the main house quilting, cooking, sewing, crocheting, knitting, decorating or something creative.
Allen works a couple of jobs so is very busy but loves to be here to meet our guests. We have been married 35 years now and both of us were in the hospitality business when we met at a restaurant in Irvine.

Why they chose this property
Once you arrive you will be able to leave your cares behind and really appreciate the farmhouse charm we love here.
Farm style is a reflection of simpler times and we really wanted to put that character into this place. As the world gets more hectic sometimes we just really need to step back and do simple again.

What makes this property unique
You really wont find a place like this so close to everything but so far away once you are back in the woods.
A little bit of heaven...
We invite you to come and stay at the farmhouse, we will be looking forward to meeting you!
