We discovered San Diego Country Estates through a travel club that arranges condo stays for us. It has become one of our favorite locations because the facilities are managed and furnished so well. Located in the outskirts of Ramona, California, it is surrounded by boulder-strewn mountains in a near desert environment, yet the grounds are filled with beautful flowers at... More

I would like to add to the post just listed (Dawnsdelite) about the Christmas family gathering last week. As mentioned we gather in odd numbered years. Altogether we had 7-8 separate suites rented for the affair. We were all very impressed with the helpfulness of the staff both at check in and during our visit. They all seemed to go... More

Our family (around 40) meets on odd years for Christmas and this year we moved it from my brothers house to SD Country Estates. I am the main coordinator and worked closely with Therese on the rooms and Joyce on renting the rotunda for our meals. Both of these ladies went above and beyond for our group. I cannot say... More

When we initially checked into our 1 bedroom "condo" it was a bottom floor and it had NO view and was down below a hill... it was dark and cave-like... I was extremely disappointed. I called the front desk and they told me it was all they had. I said that was unacceptable. They offered us a 2 bdrm for... More

Words cannot describe San Diego Country Estates. We were throughly impressed with everything during our stay. I have to admit when you're driving to the Estate you tend to wonder if you have driven off the correct path. But once you get there, it is well worth the drive time. Our room was spacious and furnished with everything you could... More

Off the beaten trail the location disappointed me at first. But the seculsion combined with lots of recreationl activities couldn't have been better to re-connect with our teenagers. The room was clean and well decorated', the beds comfortable. Took a nice day trip to the town of Julian where we ate some of their famous apple pie and visit to... More

We stayed one week in a two bdrm. two bath condo. It was huge, and the sofa pulled out into a bed as well. Fully equipped timeshare property. It is a great value for the So. Cal. area. Very clean, well equipped kitchen, great for traveling with kids that are always hungry! Beautiful grounds and area, extremely quiet. Just stop... More

This older resort is very well maintained and the grounds are beautiful. The one bedroom one bathroom unit is large and ours was very clean. Full size washer and dryer for the in-room laundry. Floors creak so neighbours below may be disturbed. Yes, housekeeping comes in every single day! They want to ensure someone hasn't done something stupid that jeopardizes... More

My husband & I wanted to get away somewhere that is in the San Diego area but not necessarily in the hubbub of the beaches or city traffic. We looked for discounted hotels on Orbitz and stumbled across the site for San Diego Country Estates located east of the small city of Ramona and about 35 minutes from Julian. It... More
