The lodge is all yours, so enjoy a relaxing stroll as you explore the 17+ private acres of tranquil meadows and woodlands surrounding Upper Meadow Lodge.
We will approve requests for small private events on a case by case basis. Please contact us directly to inquire.
We (the hosts) may occasionally be in a different cabin at the back of the property on some weekends, but guests of the lodge will not see us unless they want to.
Beautiful, quiet area at the top of Palomar Mountain. The property boasts 17.7 private acres of fern meadow and forest, including a cedar grove with trees over 350 years old. Palomar Mountain State park is only two and a half miles down the road, and the general store is a great stop for some snacks or forgotten items.
Plenty of parking on the property, but you'll need your own vehicle to get around on Palomar.
You can find miles of inspiring hiking trails within driving distance at breathtaking Palomar State Park. Water activities such as fishing or boating are also available at nearby Lake Henshaw and Doane Pond. Stargazers love to come to Palomar Mountain as it is known for being one of the most phenomenal places to see stars…There is even a famous Observatory within driving distance!
***If you are looking to book a venue for a party with loud music, alcohol, and extra guests, please do not book this rental. Palomar Mountain is a quiet community. Thank you for your understanding.***
