Frequently Asked Questions
Do you book one night stays?
Yes, you can make advanced
reservations for a one night stay any
night of the week, except for
Saturdays (and Holidays). If rooms are available on a Saturday, we are
more than happy to book for a one
night stay on a last minute basis
only.
Do you have private Hot Tubs and Fireplaces?
Yes and Yes! Besides having a pool and
hot tub for all guests to enjoy,
we have two guestrooms (the Winter and
Autumn Rooms) with
private hot tubs out on their own private patios.
All guestrooms have
the ambiance of a fireplace, a small electric, red
brick gas, indoor
wood-burning, or an outdoor chiminea firepot under the
stars.
Do you have Cable TV?
Yes, we offer cable tv, vcr & dvd
players, and cd stereos tucked in
cabinets in each guestroom. Our video
collection is extensive, and the
dvd collection will continue to grow.
Do you have A/C?
Yes, we are lucky enough to have
air-conditioning for the warm
summer months and forced heat in the home
for the chilly falls and
the snowy winters.
Can we check in
early?
A place to park at the home and a quick
tour of the B&B can always
be accommodated. However, depending on the
occupancy of your
reserved guestroom the previous night, we may need
until 3:00pm to
complete our afternoon chores and ensure a clean,
well-maintained
establishment for our guests.
How late can we
check in?
We are more than happy to check our
guests in up until 8:00 or 9:00pm.
After that, we can always make
arrangements for our guests to check
themselves in. Because we live in
our own home next to the B&B,
we are always here for our guests.
Do you accept
children?
Yes, we warmly welcome school-aged kids,
ages 5 years+.
The Summer Room allows for families up to four people.
(additional charges do apply).
Do you accept
pets?
Because of the four golden retrievers we
have on the property,
we do not accept outside pets.
What do you
serve for breakfast?
We serve a full country breakfast at
9:00am, prepared by Jim, your
swiss-trained chef. We always have hot
teas, fresh brewed coffee
and fresh squeezed juice, fresh breads and
fresh fruits, followed by
a hot entrée. We prepare a family-style menu
based on guests dietary
restrictions and requests.
Does it snow?
Yes, it actually can snow from December
thru April or May, but
mostly can storm in February and March. The
storm has to come
down from Alaska for the air to be cold enough.
Do you book the
whole house for groups?
Yes, however all guestrooms are reserved
as single or double occupancy.
Each room must be confirmed by a one
night’s deposit, whether it be by
individual occupants or by the host of
the group or family.
Is there enough to do in Julian
for a 2 or 3 night stay?
Absolutely, even 4 or 5 nights depending
on how much you want to do
or how far you want to explore. Keep in mind
that a trip to Julian is
also about doing nothing, relaxing in the
hammock, reading a book
by the fireplace, or floating on a raft in the
pool.
