Due to the remote location there is no public transportation near the home. A car would be best. We do use uber often and have had no problems securing a ride within 10-15 mins.
Bikers are welcome as it’s a beautiful scenic area to ride. The roads and area is hilly so it’s not for the beginner.
Please note: You most likely will see and/or hear military training at some point during your stay. The land adjacent to our home is used occasionally as it is part of the Camp Pendleton marine base. From humvees practicing on the hilly fire break next to the home, helicopters flying overhead, to the sounds of the occasional boom for testing. These sounds and sights are all normal for Fallbrook and come from Camp Pendleton. We have a few books at the home describing more of the history of the area and we like to think of these noises as the ‘sound of freedom’ and have great respect for the men and woman serving our country. We have printed some photos from the base and mounted them at the home to share with the guests.
Wildlife:
Coyotes: please note that you WILL see and hear coyotes during your stay. Being adjacent to the base gives us an untouched perspective with abundant wildlife. At night you will hear the coyotes yipping and it will sound like it’s right outside your window. We are at the top of a hill with a valley in front of us. Sounds travels fast and loud at the home.
Rattle Snakes: we have been told the occasional rattlesnake may been seen in our area. We do not recommend small dogs or small children to be left unattended and guests should be aware of their presence. Closed toed shoes are recommended and rattlesnake safety practiced.
Hawks: as we are at the top of a hill with a valley in front of us, we get the great pleasure of hawks soaring above throughout the day. You will also see flocks of birds flying down from the north each dusk. We have several pairs of binoculars in the chest near the back door to further enhance the viewing.
Open Water:
At the bottom of our property there is a small lake. This is not our property and the owner does not welcome visitors. Please no trespassing and ensure small children do not go down the hill or are left unattended.
