The washer/dryer and folding station is housed in a separate building in your garden of the unit for your exclusive use.
Designated parking just for you, by the entrance to the garden path to your door. The path is short but does require a few steps up to the front door. Hike through the 20 acres of our farm during day light hours or take a good flashlight after sunset and marvel at the night sky when you've familiarized yourself with the roads. The nights here are truly amazing. We ask that you stay on the roads. Your picket fenced garden is accessed through the 2nd bedroom sliding door as well as a path from the front door, and has a demonstration herb garden for you to clip from most of the year.
The Oaks Restaurant is a couple miles away and is a rural destination for breakfast, lunch or dinner. They also have a tiny produce stand/market and frequent market events. For something on the romantic side: down the road a bit further is Temecula Creek Inn's Cork Fire Kitchen. They have a fireside bar that is quite nice for enjoying a drink and chatting before heading home after a nice meal. We've gathered a few menus from cool local restaurants and the local winery down the road a piece, they're in the room for your perusal, as well as our Activity Guide that we send to you upon a confirmed reservation. It's also printed out and waiting for you in your living room. For half of the year there's a you-pick strawberry farm right down the road as well. You'll see small signs on Old 395 as you drive in from either direction. Absolutely awesome strawberries, pick them yourself, or buy them already harvested.
Just ask if you have questions about what to see or where to go, there's so much to do in San Diego and nearby Temecula/ Wine Country and the adjacent Fallbrook art community! We offer discounted private party cheese making classes to our farmstay guests, maximum: 5 farmstay adults, as well as a homemade, hand churned ice cream experience using a beautiful Amish-made ice cream hand crank machine as an add-on for those that would like to enjoy either as well as a jam making canning class.
Little known, even to San Diegans, Rainbow, California is adjacent to Fallbrook and is right off the I-15 freeway, yet Morning Song Farm seems like it's miles away from the city. One exit north you'll find Temecula's wine country, as well as the renowned Pechanga Resort and Casino. We're only a few minutes off the I-15, we're freeway close. 40 minutes or so to Oceanside's beautiful beaches and Carlsbad's flower fields and Legoland, and an exit south of Temecula's wine country tours, right in between San Diego's and Los Angeles' attractions. Twenty-five minutes or so from Cal State San Marcos University, thirty-five minutes or so from San Diego Wild Animal Park in Escondido and a little over an hour to Seaworld and world famous Balboa Park. The local farmers' market is on Saturday and is 15 minutes away in Old Town Temecula...a destination in itself. We're one exit south of Temecula. Be sure to check out Temecula Olive Oil Company's tasting bar if you find yourself in Old Town. Temecula has a number of vineyards eager to showcase their wines, wine country is one exit north of us (10-15 minutes) and if you book early enough, hot air ballooning is a local wine country favorite. There's a nearby u-pick strawberry field that shouldn't be missed when in season; and if you enjoy local wines, a mile from our farm entrance is Roadrunner Winery. They are very small and the owners spend most of their days tending their vines, so you do have to call ahead for a wine tasting to make sure they're tending the bar and not the vineyard. Many guests have remarked that their wine is quite good. Their contact information is included in our Activity Guide that we send out to your email (it's in PDF format) and it's in the Guest Guidebook found in the living room of the property.
No public transportation available, although there is an active Uber / Lyft community serving the area. Some guests choose to walk to nearby Roadrunner Winery. Other than that, a vehicle is a must.
We've listed our Bungalow as having a maximum occupancy of 6. Be aware that there are two bedrooms and two beds, each accommodating two guests max, so a 5th and 6th guests would be sleeping on the pull out full sized coach. Maximum occupancy is 6, please count all members of your party: young, old, and those that are employed by you.
When available, a solution for larger groups that want to stay on the same date is to book a one bedroom unit AND the two bedroom unit at the same time. There are a total of five vacation farmstay rental homes on the farm, and all five can be rented at the same time for a maximum of 20 guests at once. It's our intention that our guests are always delighted with the accommodations we offer and never feel overcrowded.
