Weekend Cabin – San Diego close

[bearishgurl]

[quote=mike92104]I really like Palomar. It has a much better “away from it all” feel, and the prices are decent. I’d buy this one for a home if I didn’t have to commute to La Jolla 6 days a week.

I’ve been on that road, Mike. Even though I’d prefer a tall FP to a pot-bellied stove, that’s a very cute cabin for SD County!

Very nice.

My cousin who lives in the Hudson River Valley built a cabin in her backyard. She and her husband live in the woods. She had always dreamed of a retreat for herself, and now she has it.

For San Diego, not sure where you could get something cheap. You will likely have to spend the same price as a regular principal house.

Hi Bubblesitter,

Starting in the mid 80s I had cabins in the Pioneertown/Pipes Canyon area. If you don’t know the area it is on the way to Joshua Tree. Extremely beautiful, but not for everyone.

Cabins used to be cheap, and my first one was a beauty on 2 1/2 acres for $16k. As time went on, prices went up, and in 2005 I sold my last place — which had a well and everything — because it had appreciated. Then the Sawtooth fire hit and devastated the area.

Still, I think the high desert is fantastic, and in Joshua Tree you can get some nice, affordable acreage and build something to suit your architectural fantasy.

The desert is for you if you like quiet and star-filled skies. Not much to do except hike and that is exactly the point.

Here is a realtor for you:

Very Virginia Woolf. And very cool!!

And none of those pesky traffic problems I have to deal with. I sit in hours and hours of bumper-to-bumper gridlock so that I can get somewhere and relax. Go figure.
