About this property

Nestled in the mountain town of Julian, CA, Apple Lane Orchard is a working orchard and cider processing company producing the best apple cider around!

Blooming with fruit trees and flowers, our grounds are also home to The Orchard House, a luxurious 2600-square-foot 3 bedroom, 2-bath rental property that sits atop the orchard itself with an expansive view that includes Volcan Mountain in the distance. The house is ideally suited for family vacations, getaway retreats, corporate and private events, as well as weddings. Come enjoy the views from our wraparound deck or amble down the hill to nearby Jess Martin park for skateboarding, soccer, a game of catch, or a picnic.

In addition to the house, the orchard includes our delightful Amish-style pergola with custom seating available that can accommodate any kind of festive gathering of up to 100 people.

Come escape to relaxation and enchantment in our peaceful orchard property. We look forward to seeing you!

Apple Orchard House Delight

This was our families 4th stay at this home and we continue to love this Gem in Julian. Everything you need is provided with a stocked kitchen and plenty of room for everyone. We enjoyed walking the grounds with our kids and dog and breakfast on the lovely deck. Communication with management was easy and our stay was beyond pleasant. Thank you so much! We look forward to our next trip to Julian and the Apple Orchard house!

A Wonderful Return Stay

Once again, we had a week long fabulous time at the Orchard House. This was our third time staying here, it's a great, quiet, location. It's also walking distance into the quaint town of Julian. However, the walk back up to the house might be a bit much for some as it's a steep driveway. The views from the porch, for us, were pretty and relaxing. We saw a couple of turkeys and some rabbits around the house (last time we also had deer!) The house was warm and welcoming, and because it was pretty cold the week we stayed, we enjoyed the fireplace every night. We bought the wood and fire starters from the market in town. The manager, also warm and welcoming, was always available to answer our questions - which I really appreciated. Check out was a breeze. We plan on returning soon! Love this house!!!

About the host

Hosted by Tracey Allen, Site Manager

Keith and Priscilla Webb have been married since 1986. Though retired, they moved to Julian in 2010 and knew they needed to keep busy. After all, Priscilla is actively involved in fundraising efforts for the poor and needy in a variety of non-profit groups. Remembering their fondness for fruit from the Julian Farmer’s Market, Keith decided to try his hand at farming. So they bought their first apple orchard across from the Julian High School--Apple Lane Orchard. We are very proud of our apple cider manufacturing and distribution and the Wedding and Event Venue and Vacation Cottage. We hope you enjoy your stay at beautiful Apple Lane Orchards.
