We really enjoyed being so close to town and able to walk everywhere. We liked the visit from the calico kitty when we were out on the patio one night. We were glad to have a cozy warm room when the weather was cold and windy.

Second stay at Oak Hill Inn. Rooms are simple but clean. Small kitchenette includes sink/refrigerator/microwave which is convenient if needed, along with a small seating area. This room also had a private patio with seating area and a hammock. The location is perfect. About a five minute walk to town. Only wish check-in was earlier than 3 PM. Host reached out with all pertinent information with plenty of time and the key combo when the room was ready to occupy. If staying in Julian, I would recommend considering this location.

Incredible stay! The property was a 5 minute walk to Downtown Julian. It was absolutely gorgeous at night with the dark sky community on full effect. Laura (the host) was quick to answer any questions I had, and had some great recommendations for food. Highlight was the 2 surprise visitors we had during our stay. They were such friendly cats.Will definitely come back here!

A lovely little inn

Communication was excellent and thorough. Check-in was easy. The patio was a pleasant surprise. I took a nap in the hammock after a long day in the sun. The inn suite is close to town but is secluded and quiet. I spent a lot of time on the patio and was so happy to be visited by a lovely calico cat and later by some friendly chickens.

The patio is a great place to relax

Quick Julian getaway

We loved our stay at Oakhill Inn. Stayed in room #1 and it was amazing. The quiet and private patio was great to sit outside and have a drink or a cup of coffee. Room was very clean and had all the amenities we needed. AC was cool. Will definitely be coming back!

Julian Center Boutique Accommodation Gem

We enjoyed the peacefulness of the quaint boutique Oak Hill Inn close to the heart of Julian. Set in lush greenery on a quiet street on the side of a hill, the inn includes an even quainter pool and DIY "honor system" tavern. The center of town is a mere 5-10 minute uphill walk (or 1-minute drive). My only caution - those who may have walking issues or difficulty negotiating the 15 steep steps to their rooms would be best advised to seek accommodations elsewhere. For me and my husband, the Oak Hill Inn was perfect!

Quaint Julian

Thank you to the owners for opening up Room 1 for our Super Bowl weekend stay in Julian. After a week of sleet & snow, we made our way to Oak Hill. Though the room was cold at first, the heater warmed us in this cute unit, filled with antiques and its own private, lighted patio. The bathroom’s retro tiles and pedestal sink added to the charm. The location could not be more perfect, just a short walk to coffee, souvenirs and of course - apple pie! Thank you for your hospitality as we enjoyed visiting in the tavern (the honor bar is a unique and welcome treat).
