Escondido The Oaks Course Hotels

"I’m already familiar with the area, so it wasn’t an issue for me to find. If you prefer more amenities or being closer to stores/malls this might not be for you. I think it’d even be cute for a small family if they wanted a lil weekend trip. Beware if you have a lowered vehicle because it’s definitely more of a truck/suv area. The bed was super comfy and the shower was great I’d just be worried for any tall guests. I was in and out of there for the most part, but all in all I was super pleased and I felt super safe with it being in a gated community. There’s a few different rental options on their property and I’d consider staying at any of them in the future. I didn’t capture any photos, but they’re very accurate for the listing. Thanks again for the great stay "

"The property was beautiful, spacious and had lots of amenities to keep us all having fun."

"We came to California with our daughter to see her Master's degree ceremony. This charming guest house was perfect for our stay! The landscaping is absolutely stunning and the little deck in the back of the house was perfect to sit and enjoy the gorgeous property and a cup of coffee! Frances and her husband are wonderful people and hosts. They are a joy to interact with! We will definitely stay here again in the future!"

"Nice place. Feels remote but only 15 minutes from the city. "

"The Dome was amazing! This was our second time on the property. The view is beautiful! The scenery is so peaceful. It’s extremely nice and cozy. Theres a heater if it gets too chilly. Also a fan if you need. Such an awesome spot to enjoy. We will definitely be returning. "

"It's a lovely, modern property, up a pretty out-of-the-way hill. The pictures are very accurate. We stopped in for a couple nights after visiting family, to get away, and had a great time. Unfortunately, it was a little chilly and rainy, so we didn't get too much time outside. But I did sneak out for an hour while we were there, and I highly recommend the hot tub. It's got a great view, and works great.The inside of the place is very clean, and the kitchen seemed pretty nice, although admittedly we kept it pretty simple while we were there. Having laundry machines was great, and the bed was nice and comfortable. We also had a lot of fun remembering how bad we are at pool.The only thing to know is that it's at least a 15 minute car ride to anywhere, so if you're looking for walkability this isn't the right place. But it's an easy 30 minutes to the coast and some very nice beaches, and about the same to the Safari Park (which is amazing).If we're nearby and want a break, we'll definitely be back. Maybe a little later in the year, though, so we can enjoy the pool!"

"From the street this home doesn't appear to be a big as it is. We received a welcome kit that was used and much appreciated. Three sizable bedrooms upstairs along with a master downstairs and a sleeper sofa that worked well for our group. The host and manager were both accessible to solve a minor issue. A little chilly to use the beautiful pool b ut enjoyed the backyard anyway. Nice place, just a little away from any shopping/dining areas."

"Licatiin was great. Owner was super nice and responded quickly "

"This property is great for those who don't mind some of the issues we encountered below. For us, it didn't ruin the trip, but it did certainly taint it. Pros: 1. Beautiful home with extravagant bathrooms and comfortable beds. 2. The loft is fun for the kids 3. The outdoor fire table was great when we were able to use it. Cons: 1. Lots of spiders in the house. Mostly daddy longlegs, but also other medium sized spiders we had to track down. 2. If you've never stayed in a geometric dome property before, the acoustics are crazy. It sounds like someone is right next to you when they are two floors up (no places for private conversations). 3. The gravel driveway was DEEP and ended up with two of our cars getting stuck with spinning tires. 4. The outdoor fire table ended up running out of propane during our second time using it. We wanted to replace it with a tank from the grill, but we couldn't get it undone from the table. 5. The coffee maker is horrendous to work with...wrong filters provided. 6. The biggest issue for us, is that there were extra policies and rules posted throughout the house. We had ten girls in the home for a family trip, and the host explicitly told us (in a not-so-kind-way) that we could not have our grandparents over for dinner. They have a strict house capacity policy where you can have no more than ten people on property at any time. I didn't feel that this was clear in the booking and wish we had known - we would not have booked here. "
