Premier rental estate with an ample array of amenities & outdoor, open-air oases

Please note: Although Posada del Norte (PDN) can accommodate up to 18 guests, the published nightly rate only covers 10 guests. Additional guests (11th to 18th) will be billed at $85-$95 per person, per night.

Also, reservation monies paid through Vrbo are non-refundable. Therefore, we strongly encourage reservations only be made for 10 guests, our minimum number of guests included in published rate. Prior to arrival, once final & accurate guest count is more likely NOT to change, additional payments can be processed.

PDN is a fenced & gated 3,350 sqft estate home located on 1.8 private & spacious acres, just 3 miles off Highway 15 in beautiful Fallbrook, California.

PDN’s stunning resort-like grounds include more than 4,000 sqft of beautiful SYNLawn artificial grass with HeatBlock technology. PDN's tropical, solar heated pebble tech pool & jacuzzi (heated at will) is surrounded by our majestic waterfall and multiple seating areas, all designed to maximize & inspire outdoor living.

Temecula Wine Valley, Temecula’s historic Old Town, and the Pechanga Casino & golf course are only 8 miles north, a short 15-25 minute drive. Those considering a vacation rental in Temecula should also consider that during hot summer months, Fallbrook is generally 10 degrees cooler than Temecula… making it much more temperate & comfortable.

Now then, upon arriving at Posada del Norte, a stately 17' privacy gate will slide open, allowing entry to PDN's ample driveway. Up to eight registered overnight guest vehicles can park in PDN’s driveway.

An elegant stained-glass double door, with a convenient digital lock, leads to an open-beam, vaulted ceiling living room with spectacular views of the backyard, pool, & across Fallbrook’s rolling hills.

PDN's gourmet kitchen, dining room, & living room promote communal living via a generously open floor plan. These spaces are flooded in natural light through east-facing windows.

The large living room is furnished with three full-size couches (one of which is a queen sofa sleeper, one a regular couch, & the third is a triple recliner sofa); a built-in entertainment center offers a 75” smart TV (with Direct TV service); a DVD player; and a generous DVD library.

Three ottomans (each convertible to single beds) are arranged in the living room to create a huge “coffee table”; a wood burning stove adds ambiance (firewood not supplied but available locally); and a 120” remote controlled drop-down movie screen offers a unique home theater experience.

The gourmet kitchen is equipped with a professional DCS range w/double oven; granite counter-tops; 29 cu ft fridge (with filtered water & ice dispenser); dishwasher; stainless steel microwave; an independent 5-gallon purified water dispenser/ice maker; and most standard appliances including a 12-cup standard coffee maker; stainless-steel toaster oven; and a 4-slice toaster. The kitchen’s large central island makes it easy for everyone to pitch in.

The dining table provides seating for six with four additional bar stools on the dinning room side of kitchen counter. Because the property was purposely designed to enjoy Southern California’s temperate climate, beautiful views, & healthy outdoor living, there are two other outdoor dining options. These include the Gazebo Lounge & the Redwood Lounge.

Back inside, five bedrooms are furnished with pillow-top mattress Cal king beds, elegant furniture, and are nicely decorated. PDN's 6th and 7th "bed rooms" (the Library & Piano Room respectively), offer sumptuous queen beds and are similarly furnished.

Posada del Norte also offers 3.5 bathrooms inside, with an additional convenient bathroom outside by the games area.

BR #1- Bordeauxxx the spacious master-suite, opens to the backyard w/pool & mountain views. The built-in entertainment center features 52" HDTV & DVD player. An electric RC gas fireplace provides a warm & romantic ambiance. An outdoor shaded patio is furnished with two chaise lounges.

BR #2 - Anashirazi (named after my first-born son Anastazi… & a wine varietal), offers a 42" HDTV & has double mirrored-door wall closet.

BR #3 - Kianti (named after Kiani, Anastazi’s little brother & the beautiful central region of Tuscany named Chianti), offers a 32" HDTV & a double mirrored-door wall closet.

BR #4 – Zinfandel offers an entertainment center with 50" HDTV & a DVD player & a walk-in closet.

BR #5 - La Quinta offers a 32” TV, a tall chest of drawers & a double mirrored-door wall closet.

BR #6 (Library) – this room is not connected to the Piano Room and is fitted with hanging barn doors effectively turning it into a 6th bedroom; however, privacy is limited due to its proximity to living room. Library has an elegant wall to wall built-in unit & is permanently furnished with a queen bed, open closet, a nightstand & bedside lamp.

BR #7 (Piano Room) – is not connected to the Library, is furnished with a queen bed, two night stands, lamps, a dresser, & an open closet. The piano room is also equipped with a an electric baby grand piano. Hanging barn doors & hanging barn door shutters make this space more like a bedroom; however, privacy is limited due to its proximity to living room.

The guest accessible single bay garage is rubber tiled and serves as PDN's fitness room. It is equipped with a Nordic Track Elite recumbent bike; Olympic bench & squat rack; dip/pull-up stand; dumbbells; medicine balls; curl bar; 5'X10' wall mirror & more. Please note that on occasion, Owner may require access to either garage bay to access electric/irrigation controls or retrieve stored items.

Fiber-optic AT&T wireless internet access is available throughout the home & most outdoor lounge areas. Although generally stable, internet service can be spotty & cannot be guaranteed. Also, if a party of 18 is all connected to the WiFi, it may be dreadfully slow.

This amazing property boasts a private & extensive backyard including a free-form, Pebble-Tec swimming pool; an adjoining spa spilling into the pool; our spectacular backyard waterfall; more than 4,000 sf of beautiful SynLawn synthetic lawns; a 4-hole artificial putting green; a 30'X50' foot multipurpose turf area; flowering shrubs; exotic palm trees; succulent gardens; various fruit trees; an avocado orchard; & a beautiful rose garden.

Fruit, herbs, & roses of various varieties can be picked & enjoyed by our guests.

Most impressively, the property’s resort-like grounds include no fewer than seven distinctive lounging, social, and/or entertainment areas. These were all designed to inspire & embrace outdoor living like few homes ever have.

The views from most every lounge area are extensive & breathtaking & most lounge areas feature a fire or water element & are furnished with either deep-seating outdoor furniture, chaise lounges, daybeds or redwood furniture.

PDN also has a 1,500 sf artificial turf multi-purpose area designed to offer families & friends a place to lounge or play numerous outdoor games. See our amazing array of games below!

The Upper Deck is perched above a 21’X31’ patio & features glass walls affording exceptional views. The Upper Deck is furnished with an outdoor sectional and an ample 11' x 11' cantilever patio umbrella.

The Gazebo Lounge is set around our centerpiece multi-level waterfall feature. The gazebo offers comfortable deep seating for 10 surrounding a square granite-top fire table.

The Redwood Deck has a 16’X20’ redwood pergola offering shade for a spectacular 12’ rectangular redwood table offering seating for 14. A live-edge slab bar-height table offers still more seating options. The fireplace provides a warm ambiance at night as do the string lights hanging from the pergola. Views from the Redwood Deck are truly remarkable.

PDN's Bonfire Beach, featuring a broken-glass topped propane fire pit & is surrounded by 4 double-wide redwood rocking chairs & 4 redwood benches. The bonfire is fun for the entire family on both balmy summer nights and cool winter evenings. Bonfire can be used a maximum of 2 hours per day; however, guests cannot congregate at Bonfire Beach past 10:00 pm.

In the games area, PDN offers a variety of indoor & outdoor games including many board games; 8' outdoor aluminum pool table; ping pong table; 9' shuffleboard table; pop-a-shot basketball game; shuffle board; giant outdoor checkers; bocce ball; pickle ball & more. *Due to unexpected loss or damage, not all games are guaranteed to be available for all reservations*

Also in the games area, a cedar-lined dry sauna & shower offers a convenient commode for those enjoying PDN's numerous outdoor amenities.

The large, outdoor granite BBQ island offers a 38" 5-burner grill, a bar sink, & a Fornoteca propane pizza oven!

Security cameras cover publicly visible driveway, entry gate, front door, & driveway parking areas.

Lastly, should you need any assistance, we are usually available 24/7 during your stay, as we reside in the detached guest house.

Fantastic Property for Families and Groups!

Our recent stay at Posada del Norte was absolutely incredible! All of the outdoor spaces were so beautiful and we enjoyed so many different activities each day that we never left the property! The views are truly gorgeous. The house was super comfortable and with a well stocked kitchen and awesome grill, we cooked all our meals there.

My husband and I were visiting from Texas and stayed here with our family. We got married at a Lutheran church not to far from the rental. Communication with the owners was great, and they are an awesome family. They have a wonderful rental home. The house and backyard are breathtaking. I only wish we could have stayed longer. I will most likely stay here again with friends so I have more time to enjoy all the games on the property.

Wonderful Week

This place was all that it appears. We rented for a week to celebrate my husband's 50th. The pool was amazing and we made good use of all of the lovely outdoor dining areas. Many pool floats and excellent outdoor coolers are provided. Please take note that they do not provide wine glasses or enough plates/serving dishes for multi course meals. But, they had no problem with us bringing some in. Also, they charge extra for day visitors. But, it is such a reasonable nightly price that it balanced out to add the day guests. It was a fabulous stay and we hope to rent it again.

Daughters wedding

We had an enjoyable stay at the property, which was beautifully maintained. However, it's important to note that the owner resides in a separate house on the premises. While they are very friendly, their residence is in close proximity to the rental home. Additionally, the property has strict rules that must be adhered to, including maintaining quiet hours starting at 10 PM and limiting the number of cars in the driveway to eight. Unfortunately, our family incurred an additional charge of $350 for exceeding the car limit and having visitors on the property past 10 PM. Despite this, our stay for our daughter’s wedding weekend was overall a positive experience.

Fabulous 40

Earlier this month my husband and I observed our 40th anniversary. Earlier this year we started looking at our options of how to celebrate. We both decided that we wanted to spend the time with our children and grand children. We found this property, a little slice of heaven in Fallbrook, CA. The amenities offered here were amazing, there were so many. With four grandchildren we needed more than just a pool or hot tub. We enjoyed every corner of this property. We would go back in a heartbeat. It was a great way to remember our 40 years together.

Challenged Stay- Disappointed

Was excited to book the property for our family could stay together for my daughter's wedding in the area. Looked forward to enjoying the amenities and everyone having their own room.The yard, pool, outside areas and activities are in abundance! Everything is provided (let them know you need pool towels). A basic expectation of a rental to have hot water in primary bedroom and guest bathroom for majority bedrooms, overshadowed the enjoyment of the house. There was one shower stall with hot water on the other side of house. Coordinating 8 people to bathe was extremely frustrating and challenging.Contacted owner who had us check water heater and turned up temperature. Allowed for 2 warm shower (total) and then back to cold showers and facet water again.Communicated again the issue and we were asked, as the renters, to look at the water heater again to see if we could fix. Did not feel comfortable doing this. While dealing with stress and details of a wedding, we did not anticipate that not having any hot water in the main section of the house would even be a concern. This should have been assessed at first call. Received a thank you for stay and the response to water concern and our disappointment, the next message was an apology for the inconvenience and "hoped I would understand that things like this can occur at any time" as well as have done a quicker response to the issue. Yes, things like this can happen, but should not last 6 days. This was a special trip for us.

Southern California heaven

This property is exactly as described. Beautiful! If you plan on going on vacation in Southern California, this should be home base. The ammenties are awesome! We played games and went swimming every day. The pool, hot tub and spa are fantastic. The grounds of the property are very well maintained and had multiple areas that we enjoyed dining and quality time with our family. This property also had A/C. I am from Texas and this made the evenings inside the home extremely comfortable. The home is fully stocked for cooking and dining. Just remember to bring your own toiletries and beach towels. We had an amazing time!

Contact with the manager of the property

I wished we could have met when we first came then we would have avoided a lot of anxiety of course I am to blame too. I e mailed in the morning to ask for the phone number to get in touch but did not check the reply because I was on my way already when we got to the property the WiFi was different then was given and so could not open my I pad a lot of frustration later I did get it. Otherwise everything went well and we really enjoyed our stay it had everything we wanted and needed . Thank you

Perfect for our family

Our nephew was getting married at the Ethereal Gardens in Escondido. So, we needed a location that could fit our family of 10-14 and be close to the venue. It was so nice to come back to the house to relax after events. The backyard was absolutely stunning with plenty of activities for all (ping pong, foosball, basketball ball court, min golf, bbq, pizza oven, fire pits + more!). They were available to help with anything we needed (they live on property) and were hospitable and friendly. As listed in the description, be sure to bring your toiletries. They let us use their pool towels with advance request and even dropped off some plastic cups for us (although we found plenty of glasses in the cupboards as well). Thank you Kiani for showing us around and Marino for sharing your incredible house with us!
