About Tumbleweed

This private gated property feels like a movie set, in fact, it’s listed as a film location. The two casitas are very private with views, decks and access to the 8-acre property.  It’s perfect for a private retreat, or a family vacation with room for extended family travelers vacationing together. Rent one casita or rent them both. With a 1,500 s.f. ranch house that has a full kitchen, bath, bedroom and a fold-out couch, the ranch house accommodates up to four. The bunk house has a queen bed, kitchenette, beautiful one-of-a-kind outdoor kitchen and BBQ, and a bath with a shower.
