Chuck and Nan greeted us and are terrific hosts and I'm sad I didn't get to spend a little more time with them. They have traveled the world and the cabin shows it. Photos and words don't do this home justice. My boys and I belief that the deer and maybe even the wild turkeys are on Chuck and Nan 's payroll ....and they are cued to stand on the side as you drive in the neighborhood and are in the garden in the morning!!!

(1) the cabin is just beautiful inside and out. (2) They allowed us to have two large dogs without a insane fee and they even had a convenient spot in the master bedroom where the dogs could sleep. Its essentially a large walk-in closet and they even provided a child gate so the dogs could see us but not be tempted to roam the house or jump on the bed. (3) the bed in the master bedroom was soooooo incredibly comfortable and this meant a lot to us because we already have a really nice bed at home (4) Great location. No loud neighbors. The house is close to town and it does not require a crazy drive to get to. (5) The owners are super friendly. (6) great price for what you get. Seriously, we cannot wait to go back!

If private, peaceful and relaxing is what you are looking for this is a place worth every penny.

The owners are SO friendly, greeted us with a smile, and showed us around to ensure that we felt right at home. It is tucked away under shady trees, lots of flowers, and near great hiking, a national park, and more. It has a comfy queen bed + futon if you bring kiddos, an adorable kitchenette stocked with coffee, cream, fruit, freshly baked bread and sweets from a local bakery, water, and butter. It has it's own little driveway so even though it is pretty close to the owner's home, you still feel like it is your own place. It has a fenced in patio with a little fountain + blooming lily pads! We saw deer and heard the birds singing from the adorable little back patio, that was fully equipped with a table and two chairs. The best part - we were able to bring our pup with us!!! He LOVED rolling around in the grass and spending time in the fresh air. The town of Julian is fantastic, and was so festive over the 4th of July! There is so much to see and do. We highly suggest the Gold Mine Tour, visiting the wineries, cider tasting, shopping, indulging in delicious pies, and more. Even in the summer there were things to do but we can't wait to come in the Fall when there are way more festivities! We will absolutely be back to this quaint little casita again. Thank you for the incredible hospitality!!

The cabin we rented in Julian was managed by Barbara Schorr. The details of the cabin said there is…read more"strong Wi-Fi, so you can watch movies or work." We entered the house and there was no Wi-Fi. We explained this to Barbara, and she said most likely it would be restored. It was. But the next evening it went out again at 8:30 PM and was not restored by the time we left the rental at 11:00AM the next morning. We left with 2 days earlier than our date of departure. Barbara was dismissive when I asked for a partial refund. I had a 9 year old grandson with me who wanted to play his games. She said it was a "force majuere and out of her control". Yet, the provider offers a refund to their customers in times of prolonged outage. I do not think it was unreasonable to ask for a partial refund as Internet nowadays is on the same level as electricity and heat. VRBO settled with me, as I'm a well-rated customer of theirs. Barbara and the owners could have done the same.

We've stayed in many rentals over the years, and Two Sisters Cottage is one of the nicest. The owners are lovely people. The house has charming decorations. The gas fire place heats up the front of the house just fine. We prefer the bedrooms to be cooler for sleeping. The portable heaters work well if you need to warm up the bathroom or bedroom. The furniture and beds are comfy. We don't use the dishwasher; we hand wash our dishes. They have a TV, DVD, and plenty of games to play. They have a lovely front yard with furniture to sit under the tree and people watch. They have double-paned windows. You're right in town with easy access to shopping and eating. The people who run the shops are very nice and we always stop to visit with them. Many of the restaurants and cafes are "average" but we have found a few standouts: Romano's Italian, Soups and Such, Jeremy's on the Hill, Wynola Pizza Express, Apple Alley, and Grannies. Miner's Diner has the BEST malts and shakes ever!!! We also love the Tea House. We love Julian and Two Sisters Cottage. This is not a resort, this is a homey, small town hangout.

Late February 2015: We weren't planning to stay over in Julian (we had planned to camp down in…read moreAnza Borrego State Park), but thanks to a cold front and a storm that moved in we ended up looking for someplace to hole up for a couple of days while we waited for the storm to pass. We lucked across Two Sisters' on Yelp, and made a last-minute reservation for two nights. Well... we loved Julian and Two Sisters' so much we wound up extending our stay to 5 days/4 nights. As an added bonus, Teri and her husband Rich were the most gracious and accommodating hosts anyone could ask for. They went over and above to make sure we were comfortable and all our needs were met. The cottage itself is spacious, yet cozy as can be. Neat as a pin and clean as a whistle...! The gas fireplace in the front room is positively delightful. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, pots and pans, and utensils. I can't imagine why anyone would give TSC a negative review. The space heaters for the bathroom/bedrooms are quite adequate (it was quite cold outside during our stay), and there are down comforters in the closets. The neighborhood is walk/run friendly. Our dog loved it too. The price is more than reasonable for the area, and the pet fee was the least expensive we saw. I would HIGHLY recommend Two Sisters' to anyone that asks. As far as the town itself goes, we went into a number of the shops and never felt like we were being watched over unnecessarily. The merchants we interacted with were accommodating and friendly.

They are so sweet to us we fed them (I diced apples in pieces) throw the core in the wild plants (grass, trees etc) according to Todd the store manager told us. Snacks can be bought from the store to feed two burros. We arrived sat we fed them twice on Saturday we fed them 3 times. Sunday we fed them twice before we left - we sure miss them so much you can just stop by and feed them too. We like our pink cottage. We like to come back again!! Christmas sounds good! Hmm

I've visited Banner Ranch many times while a friend rented one of the tiny homes, and it has become…read moreone of my favorite nearby places to unplug and reset. Even though I only stayed inside one unit, the property clearly offers several themed rentals, each with its own character and charm. The setting itself is the real highlight -- peaceful, open, and wonderfully quiet. It's the kind of place you go when you need your brain to slow down. I often stopped by just to sit in the sun, walk the grounds, and enjoy the unexpected bonus... real wild turkeys roaming around. Not decorative -- actual turkeys -- which somehow adds perfectly to the rustic atmosphere. There's also an onsite store (with limited hours, so plan ahead) offering food and drinks. Downstairs is a small thrift shop in what used to be an old saloon -- easily one of the most unique parts of the property and fun to browse. The covered wagon accommodations look especially fun and are on my list for a future stay when I want a quiet escape close to home. Banner Ranch isn't flashy -- it's calm, simple, and restorative. If you're looking for peace, sunshine, and a place to decompress, this is a solid choice. If I could take off half a star I would only because of the limited store hours...however, lets be real....I wasn't there to shop.
