A Taste of Tuscany -Just 5 Minutes to Golf and Wine Tasting
View is like looking out into the Tuscany hillside with vineyard below and mountains in the distant view. This property can sleep 10 guests and is nestled in the beautiful California oak trees. Relax in this beautiful and serene yard while enjoying the view and listening to the babbling brook. Take a jacuzzi, always heated and ready, while gazing at the stars or enjoy a delicious barbeque cooked on the built-in Bull barbeque. Or...cook some mouth watering smores (supplies not included) around the firepit. A view of the new Monserate Vineyard & Winery, voted 2025 Winery of the Year, is just down the hill and the Golf Club of California is just 5 minutes away with Pala Mesa Golf Resort only 10 minutes away. The Monserate Winery also has a great designated walking path alongside the vineyard and another hiking trail located behind the winery owned by the Fallbrook Land Conservancy. Enjoy family and friends in the huge open kitchen looking into the Grand Living Room with expansive views of the Gird Valley and Palomar Mountains. If your stay is in December, Christmas time is magical at this estate. It will definitely put you in the mood and ready to enjoy the season.

Beautiful home with something for everyone. The kids loved the castle, the adults enjoyed the back patio with the great view of the valley, and everyone loved how close it was to everything. We are already talking about when we can come back!
This property is very much as described. Lots of space - beautiful view. We only had a 2 night stay but really enjoyed our time and would look to book again the next time we are in the area.
We had a great time staying here. Everything we needed was supplied at the home. The view is fantastic and the owner was very cordial. We will definitely be staying here again on our next Golf Trip to this area.
Had a wedding to attend at Montserrat and needed a place to keep our littles nearby. Our Nanny is like family so she stay just up the hill with the kids for the night and it was perfect. They loved the playground and the bunk beds. We loved the view, spacious home and courteous owners. Thank you so much for making this trip one to remember. We may be back soon.
The property was beautiful, well-maintained, and Well stocked. We stayed there because our son was getting married at the Monserate Winey so the location was perfect for us. The outdoor space allowed us to gather the family and some friends and enjoy the beautiful scenery out on the patio. The home was spacious, amazingly furnished, and comfortable with plenty of room to spread out. We would definitely recommend this home to family and friends.
This property is amazing in so many ways. My clients were very impressed with my choice of accommodations and the area it’s located. The views both in the day and at night were breathtaking. The home had everything I needed to entertain my clients and more. I highly recommend this home for anyone wanting a beautiful and tranquil place to recharge or use as home base for southern California exploration.

This property is absolutely gorgeous! The name says it all. It really is a Taste of Tuscany. It is decorated beautifully and the view is amazing. The host’s communication was superb and all the little extras, such as the wine they left, coffee and creamer, to the basket of snacks and little signs here and there was top notch. This house is so beautiful, if I owned it, I would have a hard time sharing it.
I would LOVE to stay here again, especially during the holidays.
These pictures don’t do justice to the beauty of this home. It is absolutely beautiful. We are from Kansas and our daughter was getting married at Fallbrook Estate with Wedgewood Weddings. Phyllis answered any little question we had from places to do hair and nails to if they had an iron. We stayed here with our daughter and her bridesmaids for three days and had everything we needed to prepare meals and were able to get everyone ready for the wedding in this house and just drive 2 miles to the venue. It was perfect! My daughter’s wedding was June 21 and the weather couldn’t have been better.
Gorgeous home, tranquility and serenity is what you get here. Family and I had a short stay just wish it was longer. Host was so helpful with my questions. Check in was so simple. We are first time users at VRBO and were surprised and pleased. Pictures do not do this home justice its so beautiful. Highly recommend this piece of Tuscany. Until next time, thank you for sharing your home with us. Respectfully, The Ontiveros family
We came down to attend my sons wedding at the Golf Club of California. As with most Weddings you have a lot of activities that happen prior to the actual event. We only booked the house for 2 days (My Fault) so we would be checking in after the rehearsal and dinner. With out even reaching out for Phyllis, she knew a wedding is hectic and she reached out to us offer up her home if we wanted to check in early. Talk about a Super Host.
The house itself is exactly like you see in the pictures. The inside was very comfortable for the amount of people in our party. Everything is very well laid out and with all the amenities. The consensus among our group was that the backyard was the best feature. The views were spectacular both during the day and at night.
Thank you again for opening up your home.
If we are ever back down your way we will be booking with you again.

About the host
Hosted by Phyllis F Zenz
We are a retired couple who love being able to share our home with other people. We love entertaining, being with our grandchildren and traveling. Our home was designed with our family in mind with the treehouse and entertainment area. We love being hosts for Vrbo and hearing the comments of how much our guests have enjoyed their stay. It is also always a joy when we have repeat clients. We strive to make every guest's visit a perfect experience. Note: This house is not suitable for children under 6 years of age.
Why they chose this property
This property will meet or exceed all your expectations. Serene country setting but still so close to town, golfing and wine tasting.
What makes this property unique
There is a castle tree house with swings, two slides, a rock climbing wall and a zipline. There is also a patio seating for the adults or your play restaurant. Please let us know if there will be children in your party that would enjoy this. It is located under many oak trees so we would need to spend extra cleaning time before your arrival. Please use at your own risk. Adult supervision is mandatory at all times. The castle treehouse is not suitable for children under 6 years old.
