Did you try Big Bear or Julian? It depends on how big of a “cabin” or “weekend place” you’re looking for, but there are small towns in those areas which have less expensive housing that San Diego. $150K still won’t buy you much in these areas…
September 16, 2007 at 8:58 PM #84761luxuryglowParticipantPerhaps fractional ownership? for 150K? unless you my want to wait and see..
September 17, 2007 at 7:23 AM #84790mydogsarelazyParticipantI guess that waiting and seeing would be the way to go. I found a “cabin” just under 1,000 sq feet listed in Julian, and it is listed for $299k.
Interesting that both Julian and Big Bear were threatened by fires this past week. That gives me pause. Wonder if people in those areas can get good fire insurance?

September 17, 2007 at 12:32 PM #84840luchabeeParticipantDo you have lots of money?
Why not just rent a cabin? No $150,000 tied up or mortgage and closing costs, no property taxes, maintenance, weed abatement, no cleaning, or fires? Also, you can rent different cabins if you get tired of the same place.
Try Craigslist.com
But that’s just me.
