You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Quiet mountain getaway that is centerally located from coast to desert.
1100 sq ft, one bedroom guest house with an open floor plan that includes a large indoor, circular sunken fireplace and lots of privacy on three acres is located on a designated 'Native America Heritage Site'. This property has one of the largest Mortero collections in the county (where early Native Americans used the local rocks to grind their grains and medicines). Set among mature Live Oaks, Manzanita and various pine trees, this spacious and serene getaway will take your breath away! We are close enough to enjoy everything that San Diego has to offer but a world away from the traffic and congestion of the city.
There is just so much you can do year round - Mountain biking, hiking, fishing. Besides the beach and all the water activities, you can also venture into the desert on ATVs or Dune Buggies.
Live music at all levels from concerts to cafes, Balboa Park, fine arts, fine dining and, of course, the San Diego Zoo, Safari Park and SeaWorld.
Norwegian Woods is also a prime location for artists to spend time writing and painting as the grounds are an inspiration for quiet creativity.
For the romantic, it's an opportunity to come together in a natural, peaceful setting. Isn’t it good…Norwegian Wood.

Property is in a beautiful area. The house was truly one-of-a-kind. The sunken living room / fireplace was a trip back in time — groovy! The expansive grounds were a treat. The owner’s house was on the property but privacy was never an issue. The weather, while we were there, was perfect. There were plenty of things to do and explore in the area. We drove through the spectacular blooming desert. One or two quibbles: kitchen could have used salt& pepper, a signal booster for the Wi-Fi wouldn’t have gone amiss and though coffee was provided there was no creamer or sweetener. But, overall, we would highly recommend this place to any and all.
Our family stayed for the weekend and had an amazing time. Dog friendly, clean and had a lot of little details that made our stay enjoyable. We can’t wait to return.
We were staying to be close to a wedding at Mt Laguna. The home was in a good location and so peaceful. The AC was wonderful after being out in the heat all day.
I love staying at Norwegian Woods. It’s peaceful and quiet and my dogs really enjoy it. I had a little difficulty with check in this time due to an error but the hosts quickly rectified it and all was well. I look forward to my next stay here.
Much appreciated my stay. Very clean (my highest priority) with full kitchen. 10 minute drive to the many trails of the Laguna area. Thanks to the hosts for providing such a nice space.
Great stay in a secluded small mountain community. This is our second stay at this property and we love it even more. Really cozy place with the unique fireplace and comfortable beds. Love the outdoor space for the dogs to run around. Hosts are very responsive. They are on the property, but still feels like there is privacy at the same time. Will definitely stay again!
This was a perfect weekend getaway in the woods surrounded by nature. It felt like a little "Norwegian" mountain paradise. The conversation pit was such a fun feature! We took advantage of the easy access to nature and truly enjoyed our stay.
Great cabin location and comfort. Enjoyed the 70s vibe and fireplace. The cabin was close for the mountain biking we had planned for the weekend. Celebrated a birthday. Definitely would book the cabin again for future trips. The host was wonderful and helpful too. Clan Fraser
We came down for my brother’s Marine Corps Graduation in San Diego. It’s great being so close to San Diego but not having to stay on the city. Checkin was super easy and communication was great and made everything smooth and easy. Being able to unwind near the fireplace after a long day was amazing ! Coffee in the morning looking out the beautiful huge bay windows was the perfect way to start the day. Parking was super close to the front door which made loading and unloading super easy especially with a kiddo under 2 .
Great location and absolutely beautiful property. A couple downsides to our stay was no breakfast like it states in description, no bathrobes or slippers like also stated in the description. If you are at all sensitive to any type of paranormal senses you will defenitly feel it here. Front of the house is nice and comfy stays warm and cozy no issues walk into the hallway where the bathroom, closet and bedroom are and you can feel it ( especially in the bedroom and closet ), needless to say we left an entire day early could not take the overwhelming feeling of not being wanted there and being watched. For the amount of money we paid for a 2 day vacation it kind of sucked losing out by leaving but better safe than sorry i guess. The owner stated she would have sage burned in the home to hopefully help with bad
All beautiful and relaxing environment. This is ideal to disconnect from the daily routine. My dogs were happy here too. The property management is responsive and nice. I’ll be coming back again for sure.
We had a wonderful experience at this beautiful getaway home and property. The host was fantastic, and it was our first time using VRBO. Overall, it was a great experience, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
