This magical oasis in the Escondido countryside is a historic Ranch close enough for a quick hour or two of peace and quiet. Only a few minutes from the San Diego Safari Park, this special place is scattered with succulent gardens, amazing trees and a steam running through. Horseback riding, restaurant (opening summer of 2021). Relax in the huge hammock, listen to the wind in the trees watch the birds.
