Wonderful peaceful weekend. Thank you. Reserve breakfast in town as the wait is 1.5 hours at the popular places. Can't beat coffee on the deck though, surrounded by fall colors and with the sound of the fountain and rain falling through the leaves. read more

Great hotel great service! Love the animals and the ability to feed them! Would definitely stay there again in a different themed room!

We had a relaxing mid week stay at the Stargazer suite @ Wikiup, such peaceful quiet compared to our LA neighborhood. While it was raining most of our stay, the hot tub was still very enjoyable when it was sprinkling. Super convenient and private hot tub, and it was also very easy to use and keep warm. The stargazer is tucked on the backside of the building with only a hillside next to you. The gathering space was really cozy and had lots of additional tea & coffee (as well as in rooms). I used the dining table to take care of some work early in the morning but it looked like a great place to relax as well. Only 5 minutes from all the shops & restaurants of Julian, and close to lots of hikes & Lake Cuyamaca. read more

My boyfriend and I went here for an early valentines, and it was such a wonderful experience. The property is beautiful, especially in the snow! We stayed in the Shady Lady which has its own private cedar wood fire hot tub. Wonderful for a little getaway and definitely recommend! read more

Wikiup Hummingbird Hotel - You can feed the llamas and goats! - Hotels Near Me - Julian, California

Wikiup (which is about a 6 minute drive from town), was very easy to find (lots of signs), felt secluded & was stunning. The property has animals you can feed, a few community areas (tv, outdoor seating, jacuzzi?) and lots of nature (we watched humming birds playing & bats playing at night etc). We found the Shady Lady room to fit our needs: bed was comfortable, room was charming, had amenities (quality air conditioning on a 90degree day, mini fridge, coffee/tea, microwave), and didn't require many stairs to get to the room (the other rooms have stairs to get to them, with the star gazer room having more). Eddy was very hospitable & always available when we needed help. Super relaxing. read more

I absolutely love this place. My girlfriend and I booked two nights in Shady Lady for our anniversary and it surpassed all of our expectations. Chris (the innkeeper) is so personable and helpful, he really seems to love his job here. The living room area where you can play games, make coffee, watch TV is such a nice touch. Shady Lady has a wood fire hot tub and Chris made sure it would be warm for us when we came back to the room after spending our day out. Although the rooms are close together (built like a house with rooms split off) there were no issues with loud guests and I often forgot there were other people around. The goats and llamas were so fun to feed, and there are a ton of areas around to lounge. We read a book in a hammock and used the community hot tub as well. One morning a family of woodpeckers were busy at work hammering into our wall, but I we almost enjoyed it because it was so fun to watch. Really hoping to come back here again, there's so much to do that when you inevitably run out of activities in town you can spend time here. read more

Absolute gem! Llamas roam the property, and the ambiance is absolutely divine. Tucked away with little noise aside from nature. The rooms are individual and phenomenal. read more

We had an amazing stay that surpassed our expectations! We came for our wedding weekend and stayed in the Shady Lady. It was even more charming and beautiful than in the photos, and the patio hot tub was so lovely. It was a perfect and relaxing way to end our wedding night. The bed was super comfortable, the decor was adorable, and we loved feeding the llamas and goats! We took almost as many photos with them as we took at our wedding lol. Chris was super welcoming and accommodating allowing us to check in a little early. He also did a full run down of the room, feeding the animals, and he made sure the hot tub was running perfectly for us. Everything about our stay was just wonderful. We will 100% be back! read more

Looking for a place that's out of the ordinary? Check out this spot. Set on a hillside in Julian the surroundings are hard to beat. Each room has a theme. Two of the rooms have indoor jacuzzi tubs and two have outdoor hot tubs. We stayed in the dreamcatcher room, it has an indoor jacuzzi tub, kitchenette with microwave and mini fridge, table with two chairs, and a cute patio. It is accessed by stairs and is situated between the main level and the goats and llamas which are downhill a bit. Food is provided to feed the animals if you want. There is a common area on the main level too where there's a huge assortment of coffees and teas available as well as ice and water. read more

Had a wedding in town and stayed in the Dream Catcher room. The owner Chris was great! Very kind and helpful-Gave us a tour around and showed us how to feed the animals. (The goats are the best!!!!!) The room was super clean, lots of attention to detail, and the bed was one of the comfiest!!! Easy 5 minute drive into Julian. Can't wait to stay here again. Thank you! read more

Best little getaway! Chris, the owner, keeps the place immaculate and cozy. We stayed in the Dreamcatcher room this time and relaxed the whole time. We plan to stay in each room to find out which one is our favorite. I have a feeling we won't be able to choose. Next visit we've already decided to stay longer. read more

Wikiup Hummingbird Hotel - One of the many places to sit and enjoy the scenery. - Hotels Near Me - Julian, California

My favorite place to stay in Julian! Chris is very accommodating! My wife and I love the llamas and goats! Great place to take your doggos as well! I can't recommend this place more! read more

Absolutely loved this place - it was like walking into another little world. The drive up there is beautiful and scenic, and entering this cute Airbnb was just as gorgeous. My room was beautiful, and had a GIANT bath tub (more of a hot tub, you could fit like three people in there) with jets and bubble bath soap waiting for you. There was also a little area with two rocking chairs, and the bed was really comfy. The best part: they have llamas and goats that you can feed whenever they're out and about. I loved that part - super quaint, homey, and very clean. Lastly, Chris was so kind - I ended up getting a flat tire while I was there and he made the calls to find me a replacement, and let me stay another night (and he would have helped me find other accommodations had he been full). This is what I'm talking about when I want to get away - the owner had a well kept and beautiful place and was a person of integrity. I will absolutely be back and have recommended this spot to my friends/ family. read more

My wife and I spent two nights in the Shady Lady room of the Wikiup Hummingbird Hotel. The space and property is so very charming and cozy. The room was just enough for us and we especially enjoyed the fireplace. We also very much loved the private wooden hot tub on the balcony outside the room. It make for amazing evenings soaking in the wood burning tub at sunset. I also have to say that the owner Chris was very friendly and responsive to us. He is such a wonderful host. We also loved feeding the goats and llamas on the property. We hope to be back here some time in the not too distant future. read more

This was a charming and beautiful stay! Can't wait to come back! It functions both as a romantic, couples retreat, and a great place to take kids. Our daughter is five years old, and she was delighted to feed the Alpacas. At the same time, the cabins were all very private, and privately situated. I could see how, if I'd come alone with my husband, we could've had a very romantic getaway. As it was, we barely saw any of the other guests-- since each room had, not only its own theme, but it's own outdoor niche. Our room was clean and beautifully decorated. Can't recommend highly enough! read more

Wow words can't even express our wonderful experience staying there !!! We stayed there Friday trough Sunday! Which was great because that meant we received 3 delicious breakfast! Being that this was our first stay at a BNB , Linda and Lee you have really set the standard real high!!! Breakfast were so thought out and of course homemade .... First breakfast was a poached pear with a boysenberry jam , fresh baked cinnamon bread and two different choices of egg soufflé and apple chicken sausage all amazing!! Second day was French toast with a blueberry cream , garlic Parmesan cheese scrambled eggs fresh fruit and a homemade whipping cream.... Great selection of a coffee and tea bar... And sweet desserts and treats all day in the gathering room! Our room was Rose's secret ! Roses galore ...... bed was a feathered top bed that was super comfortable! The room was so cozy and intimate ...... little area with a mini frig, microwave , wine glasses ,plates etc..... Private patio area to sit outside perfect to have afternoon wine or drinks .... The property is gorgeous and so much to look at..... areas with sings to just enjoy the outdoors or feed the Llamas!!! We will definitely refer friends and family here... Linda and Lee couldn't have been friendlier and made us feel more welcome to their home! Thank you for the hospitality!!! read more

This is a stunning location! Our room was the Dreamcatcher decorated in a cool southwest design. The staff and owner was great. It was our 40th anniversary and is was such a beautiful place read more

I am not being dramatic when I say that this was an unforgettable experience. My mini weekend getaway, with my family, has exceeded all my expectations. which is saying something coming from me, since I (admittedly) always struggle with having "unrealistic", expectations lol. So trust me when I say, that I was truly elated, & beyond satisfied, with my stay, here at the beautiful, hummingbird hotel. The owner Chris, was hospitable, kind, welcoming professional, accommodating, & just went above & beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. He even had our room & hot tub ,heated upon our arrival. We stayed in the "star gazer", which had its own unique theme, positive energy , & relaxing atmosphere .each room is completely different btw. This hotel is in a private, peaceful location, BUT, it is still close enough to town , to enjoy all that julian has to offer. I am so exited to book another stay, but , in a different room, since each one is uniquely designed/decorated. I almost forgot to mention the adorable lamas, and goats he has on the property. PLEASE do not hesitate to stay at this gorgeous inn. Not only will you not regret it, but you will not want to leave. Thank you so much chris. I will never forget, & forever cherish, the magical moments that took place during my stay this past weekend. This picture is just one of many, of wikiups breathtaking views. & is only portraying a fraction of what's in store for you. But I literally couldn't wait to write this review. So I will update with more photos as soon as possible. read more

I've never seen a business with such good ratings across platforms. I think there is a lot to say, but we were so impressed with every detail and the considerate way we were treated during our stay. It had been a bucket list to stay here after running across the older couple who use to run it. They had to close down the weekend we were suppose to come up. Fast forward 8 years. I hadn't realized it had changed ownership, and was a bit surprised. However, any confusion was totally washed away. The new host is extremely attentive and generous. You can tell he cares a lot for the property and business he took on. There are tons of large and small examples. when I left something behind that I didn't think I'd be able to see again, he went above and beyond to get it shipped with a kind note. We loved "Dreamcatcher" and our bubble bath. If you will be anyway near Julian it is worth making a trip to stay here. read more

This place is the perfect spot for a weekend away. Chris, the owner, is very attentive and hospitable. The StarGazer room is amazing and I highly recommend. And the llamas and goats at the reserve are awesome too :). read more

What a unique and memorable experience! Between the very tastefully done, themed rooms (all equipped with anything you could need), the private hot tub, beautiful scenery, little private nooks everywhere you turn, and of course the goats and llamas...We had a blast! Our boys wanted to move in, and never leave Thank you for everything, we will be back!! read more

I would highly recommend this place if you're looking for a quiet, peaceful, and romantic getaway! Just a few minute drive from downtown Julian, this wonderful hotel was what really made our trip here worth it. My wife and I stayed in the Star Gazer suite and were absolutely blown away at how cozy it was and how welcomed we felt staying here. Chris, the owner and groundskeeper, was a wonderful host and made us feel right at home while ensuring anything that we needed was taken care of. He was incredibly kind and inviting! I know that I will be staying here again whenever I come back to Julian. read more

A fairly unassuming driveway transforms into a wonderfully crafted and curated, experiential BnB as you walk up towards the Gathering Room. Gorgeous, mature landscaping with accent pieces to match the historic nature of Julian's mining roots. Fountains provide constant white noise that makes it feels as though a small creek must run through the property. The check in process was super simple and painless. The host was wonderful and did his best to make our stay great in every way possible. We stayed in "The Shady Lady" and the wood-fired hot tub added a special romantic element to this weekend getaway; again the host was great with his explanation of how to use it. Privacy was initially a concern, but after seeing the curtains that isolate the room's entrance from the rest of the guests there was nothing to worry about and we enjoyed the space with adequate privacy. The Llamas and goats are another novel feature that makes the Wikiup Hummingbird stand out. Feeding the goats and Llamas is something that my girlfriend won't forget. Overall a great value and a great experience for anyone looking to have a relaxing weekend with a special someone in a beautiful part of San Diego County. Highly recommended and I can't seem to keep myself from telling folks about our wonderful experience here. read more

I wanted to take my boyfriend away from madness for a few days for his birthday. I found this cute B&B on Yelp and the rest is history. I reserved the Klondike Kate's "Shady Lady" @ Wikiup B&B. OMG! It was amazing! It has a cute outdoor wood hot tub & the interior decor is very whimsical & unique. We were welcome by Linda; such an amazing & very interesting lady. Her husband Lee was around the premises busy building or creating something. The grandson had heated up the tub & the a/c was turned on prior to our arrival---everything was perfect. The breakfast was super scrumptious (to die for ); the llamas were very inquisitive; the cat was respectful & the older dog just kept to itself. I wish we could had stayed longer but I know we will be back . read more

Linda and Lee are amazing! The property is intimate and cozy. Lots of little benches and sitting areas to enjoy the beautiful views of nature and stars. Animals everywhere, friendly llamas you can feed, wild turkeys, beautiful blue jays. We stayed in the shady last room with the old fashioned wood fired hot tub on the deck. There is no other place you can experience something like that. Also the food was amazing!. We will definitely make the trek from Los Angeles to Julian soon!.. check it out! read more

My girlfriend and I spent a weekend in the Shady Lady. There are so many good things to say about Wikiup I don't know where to begin. The hosts, Linda and Lee, were so incredibly nice and accommodating and we thoroughly enjoyed all of their stories and banter. The breakfasts we had deserve their own review, but I'll keep it brief and just say that they were delicious. Poached pears and frittatas, and egg soufflés, oh my... The room itself was meticulously decorated and everywhere we looked we seemed to find a new decoration or detail that Linda had added. The bed was very comfy, the fireplace very cozy, and the amenities very generous. Oh, and there's a hot tub on the deck, use it! I also have to mention all the adorable animals we got to see. There's a tubby old cat that lounges around the common room, a huge fluffy dog that looks part bear, and 3 llamas that you must take the opportunity to feed. Where else do you get to feed llamas!? Thanks for a great time, Linda and Lee! read more

Wikiup Hummingbird Hotel - Hotels Near Me - Julian, California

I stayed here with my wife for the weekend and it was a lovely place. Linda was a wonderful host and did a great job making us feel welcome and telling us about the different places to check out in time. We stayed in the blue room (I forget what it was called, but it had a moon-theme), which came with an awesome outdoor hot tub. The common area was also really warm, cozy, and relaxing (we stayed during a cold, November weekend). The breakfast served was wonderful and we can tell that a lot of care was put into making a breakfast that was delicious and well-presented. We fed the friendly llamas later in the morning, which was also a fun experience (I was surprised, because I'm not an animal person so I normally complain about how much they smell, but the llamas weren't bad at all... I didn't really notice the smell often). Anyhow, we will definitely be back! read more

I treated my boyfriend to a birthday Thanksgiving weekend in Julian. We stayed in the Willow Warren room at the Wikiup. Lee greeted us warmly, gave us a tour of our room. Very personable. Made us feel like family instead of guests. Great stories. Amazing food. My crazy boyfriend liked it and Llama Lee so much he wants to go every weekend! But will probably be every 6 months. He owes Lee a game of Dominoes! Highly highly recommend this place in Julian read more

My husband and I booked a weekend getaway at the Wikiup for our anniversary. We absolutely loved it there. The Stargazer room we booked in particular was a gem, as it was very private, and set back from the rest of the rooms. We particularly enjoyed the outdoor hot tub that came with our room! We also booked a llama trek, run by co-owner Lee. You get to hike with the llamas to a local winery, enjoy lunch, get a wine tasting, and a bottle of wine to take back with you. It was so fun, and definitely something "different" to do! And, as many others have noted, the breakfast really is out of this world. GREAT find, and we look forward to returning soon! read more

Wikiup Hummingbird Hotel - Llama Trekkin'! - Hotels Near Me - Julian, California

My wife and I stayed her for our anniversary and had a great time. It is a very nice property surrounded by trees and you really cant see other houses so it has a very enjoyable atmosphere. It was fun feeding the goats and llamas and the city is such a short drive away that it felt so easy getting around. The inn keeper was very attentive to our needs and even sent us a swimsuit left behind and he made sure that the wood fired jacuzzi was warm for us to use. We didn't go into the common area due to the pandemic but the room had a very cozy little table inside and a patio set outside that my wife and I enjoyed eating at. The room was clean and tidy and the bed comfortable. Had a great time and looking forward to going back. read more

We recently stayed at the Wikiup Hummingbird Hotel and had a terrific stay. The place is woodsy and covered with trees and flowers. There are animals (llamas and goats) and you feel like you stepped back in time. We stayed in the Shady Lady room, which was lovely with an outside deck. The host, Chris, was wonderful and made sure everything was taken care of. We loved it. read more

I took my boyfriend here for a birthday get away, the weekend of September 15th, 2017. I've been coming to Julian for about 6 years and only now, stumbled upon this true gem! We have stayed at BnBs before, but this one truly takes the cake! Linda and Lee have created a business that feels everything but! It really feels like they are welcoming you into their family, rather than simply renting out a room. We stayed in the Shady Lady. It has a French vibe to it which was really fun. My boyfriend and I have literally never slept on a more comfortable bed! The best part of this room is that every little piece of decor, picked by Linda, has some sort of meaning or history behind it. I think this is why the room didn't feel like it was filled with "stuff" but rather, little treasures. Also, it's the one room that has a wooden soaking tub, on the outside deck, that's heated via a wood burner! Super unique. Linda's breakfasts were out of this world!!!!! I'm still trying to find recipes for the things she made! I can't even begin to describe some of her creations; a baked inside out caramel apple, fresh blueberry French toast, and other delectable things! The entire property is outstanding. The llamas and other animals are just the sweetest. And the house is no more than a 4 minute drive to downtown Julian. My boyfriend and I plan on coming back and trying out the rest of their different themed rooms (5 total). I honestly feel like if you go to Julian, you NEED to stay at this BnB. You're missing out if you don't! read more

If I could give this more than 5 stars, I would! Hands down! My husband and I came down here and loved everything about this property! The breakfast was AMAZING and the decor was so cozy ane warm. Linda and Lee were absolutely wonderful. The hospitality they provided exceeded my expectactions! We were sad to leave! Julian is such a cute town on its own, and you feel like you stepped into a hallmark movie set! If yoi are looking for old fashioned romance, or a nice getaway from the whole 9-5 job thing.... this is perfect. So serene. read more

For our anniversary, my wife and I stayed the weekend at The Wikiup B&B. With limited Yelp reviews, we looked at the TripAdvisor reviews. Wow. Then we realized that this is a very highly regarded San Diego Bed & Breakfast. We reserved the Willow Room, and were on our way. Directions were easy, and they have plenty of parking for their guests. As you drive up to the beautiful property, there are four llamas on display to welcome you. Very cool. We walked up to the main door and met Linda and Lee, the owners. We found them to be very welcoming, knowledgable, and genuine. To make them even more likable, we found out that she is a retired ICU nurse, and he is a retired firefighter. Something about that is reassuring when you are an hour away from the closest hospital. If you want peace of mind, and a good nights sleep, stay here. What sets The Wikiup apart from other B&B's that we have stayed at is the fact that this place is full of good energy, and you feel it the moment that you step foot on the property. You are just a stones throw away from Julian, in the mountains of San Diego, surrounded by huge oak trees. Kinda hard to explain, but it's real. We found our room to be cozy and private. Equipped with a mini fridge, microwave, small kitchen sink, cd player boombox, wine key, wine glasses, a split of Martinelli's sparkling cider, coffee maker, coffee cups, coffee, tea, creamer, plates, silverware, soap, shampoo, big tub, shower, thick towels and robes, a comfortable bed, table and chairs, and lastly, two rocking chairs in front of a fireplace. There is also a nice jacuzzi outdoors with a mountainside view. Exactly what you would want from a good B&B. From the thick slices of fresh iced pumpkin bread to the tea and coffee service waiting for you anytime in the main dining room, attention to detail is big here. The Wikiup serves an OUTSTANDING breakfast to their guests in the morning, all of it delivered on fine china. We had an inside out baked caramel apple to start our meal. Followed by fresh baked muffins, good coffee, wild mushroom soufflés, turkey sausage, and three types of juice. Of course Julian apple cider was an option. Damn that was a good meal. You never have to leave your seat once breakfast starts, since you get spoiled when staying here. We brought our laptop to watch some DVD's as it was a rainy weekend, perfect for movies. They have a great collection of films on DVD as well as cd's for you to use, as needed. There is no Wi-Fi here, which is not necessarily a bad thing. Although it can be tough, it can be nice to give the e-mails a break. I promise that the Internet will still be there when you get home. If you love animals, this is a great place to visit. They have a group of llamas, a few cats, and at least one massive Newfoundland(a bear-like dog) that stay on the property. All of them are unique and seem to add to the charm of The Wikiup. The llamas are friendly, and can be hand fed snacks that are stored near the front door of the main dining room. If you have never done this before, it is hilarious. Try to not laugh as four llamas become your best friends...until the snacks run out. Then they lose interest. In addition to the domesticated animals, we saw plenty of wildlife here...deer, squirrels, hawks, scrub jays, rabbits, and more. We live in San Diego, and are already planning a return visit before the year ends. If you are debating between places to stay, as we did, consider this... The exceptional Wikiup track record, the innkeepers, the llamas, the atmosphere, and the delicious food. read more

After many months of stressful wedding planning, thoughts of a honeymoon get away was the next order of business. After doing the nuptial deed on Sunday, the following day we headed up the mountain to Julian to spend the next two days relaxing at a bed and breakfast. I always laughed at the idea of bed and breakfasts seeing it as something my parents did, but it seems my parents sure know what is up! Bed and breakfasts are amazing! Okay, so maybe I am biased because Wikiup is the first one I have been to, but I guarantee they are the best! Lee and Linda are the sweetest people who run this little business just a short jaunt out of Julian! The house is large and totally cozy and they have many cute animals to greet you on your way in! Newfoundland dogs, cats, and lots of llamas. All so cute and so friendly! We stayed in the Garrett Stargazer Room which was the cutest! It is the most secluded of rooms offered at the Wikiup and has its own private entrance on the second floor. It has its own hot tub on its own deck which is ideal for spending some good clean fun with your sweetie. The room inside is the cutest and has well, a stargazer theme! Moons, suns, planets, and lots of blue and white tiles! The bathroom is the cutest with bamboo floors and the walls have galvanized roofing with the trim being galvanized flashing. It worked all so well!!! It was the coolest room! The shower was amazing and the heaters in both the bathroom and bedroom worked very well! Definitely an important thing when it gets chilly up in the mountains! The breakfast in the morning was very cute and prepared with lots of love from Linda! Such a sweet easy going lady! We even got the feed the llamas which made them very happy! The big common room inside the house was very cute with exposed beam ceilings and was very cozy. The deck railing was made out of manzanita wood which Lee fastened himself! Walking back to the room in the dark of night was easy and not scary because of motion sensor lights lighting just enough pathway to see without potentially blinding other couples staying in the rooms. The Wikiup is the best due to their location right out of town and is so peaceful and quiet! Great place to unwind after a lot of stress and the price was totally reasonable! We plan on going back as soon as we can find an excuse and the money! Strongly recommend the Wikiup to anyone looking to get away for a few days on a relatively inexpensive vacation or anyone who loves bed and breakfasts! read more

Amazing! All the rooms have themes, and they are all nice and cozy. The wife and I stayed in the Stargazer room. It was kind of like being in a spaceship. It was extremely nice, and they have a hot tub right outside the door, although ours was broken and we had to use the common one, which was fine and has a beautiful view of a mountain. Oh and we didn't worry about the other one being broken because we were given a discount on the room. The breakfast is amazing very very nice and inspired me to learn how to cook a little nicer for breakfast. The dining room for breakfast is nice and really comfy feeling. The owners are some of the nicest people you can meet and they have a pretty interesting story and you can tell they care about every single guest. The also have lamas, Which we did not ride (but you can they have a package.) However we did pet and feed them which is nice. I do not suggest bringing your kids here at all, it's really meant to be for you and your loved one to get away and renew. read more

The Wikiup is such a private and charming bed and breakfast! My boyfriend and I stayed there this last weekend and we really enjoyed our stay there. We arrived on Friday and we were the only two guests there. We were able to explore the whole property and peek into all the rooms. Each room is uniquely themed complete with different aromas too. We stayed in the Stargazer room, which is the farthest room on the property. Everything we had to eat was incredible! If you love a great breakfast you're in for a real treat when you stay here. Lee and Linda were very welcoming hosts. Would definitely come back and stay at the WIkiup. :) read more

I don't even know where to start! This was me and my husbands first stay at a Bed and Breakfast, and to say the least, we were a bit nervous... It had been decided a couple months before hand that we would go back to Julian again and stay. We both decided on Wikiup thanks to the Yelp reviews and man we were NOT let down! Lee and Linda were amazing hosts! Everything was prepared beautifully, they were very friendly and helpful, and the food was FABULOUS! Hubby and I needed a getaway from life, and this was our first time alone in more than 4 years for more than 12 hours. We couldn't have asked for a better time. It was very quiet, our room (Shady Lady) was absolutely adorable (and romantic), and the entire outside area was so peaceful. We had our own fire heated hot tub, which was a bit finicky, but after getting the fire to a good pace the water was perfect. And we got to witness hummingbirds landing on our fingers! BREAKFAST!!! Oh my goodness, Linda's french toast was delicious. So was everything else, but her french toast was just WOW! The only thing I would have changed was the amount of time we spent up in Julian, next time it will be more than two nights! We can't wait to make our way back to visit Lee and Linda along with Mr. Keemer (the kitty) and their gorgeous Newfie! read more
