Flight

SAN

The San Diego International Airport is really your only option for flights, unless you plan to fly your own small plane to one of the miniature airfields.

Rental Car

You will want a car

No, really, please have a car. San Diego does not believe in effective mass transportation. And it especially does not believe in effective mass transportation to Julian, which is an hour+ outside of downtown San Diego. Directions to the venue (or, you know, use Google): Take 79 West out of Julian to Pine Hills Road and turn left (.8 mi); Pine Hills Road to Blue Jay Dr. and turn right (2.3 mi); Blue Jay Dr. to La Posada Way and turn left (.2 mi); Destination will be on the left. The trip takes about 7 minutes from downtown Julian.

Travel Note

Weekend Lodging Guide

Julian has a number of boutique hotels, traditional B&Bs, and AirBnbs available for lodging. We highly recommend staying in the Julian area on Saturday and Sunday, because who wants to drive down a windy mountain road after drinking? We've listed some possibilities of hotels/B&Bs in Julian. If you are looking at AirBnbs/VRBOs, anything in Julian should be less than a 10-minute drive from the venue. Anything in Whispering Pines, Pine Hills, Wynola, or Kentwood-in-Pines is within a 15-minute drive. If in doubt, text Kate the address and she will tell you how far away it is. If you're coming into town early or staying late, however, it might be fun to stay in San Diego proper for the days before/after the wedding weekend. Let us know if you want suggestions of places to stay in the city! If you live in San Diego, maybe still think about finding a place in Julian on Sunday night? We're not your parents, but don't drive drunk down a mountain.

Hotel

The Julian Lodge

As close as you can get to a traditional hotel in Julian. Located right "downtown" (as in, next to a pie shop).

Hotel

Julian Gold Rush Hotel

Basically across the street from the Julian Lodge. A little higher on the quaint-scale.

Hotel

Apple Tree Inn

More of a classic motel feel. There is a pool, if that's your thing. 3 miles outside of "downtown" Julian.

Hotel

Oak Hill Inn, Julian

Private rooms in an old colonial house in "downtown" Julian.

Hotel

Tucker Peak Lodge

Bridging the gap between mountain lodge and B&B. Only 6 rooms, very rustic (read: so much wood) in style.

Hotel

Wikiup Hummingbird Hotel

This place allegedly has pet llamas for your amusement

Hotel

Julian Cabins

This website, as well as https://www.juliancabin.com and https://www.julianlodging.com are all aggregate sites that list a variety of private homes and cabins in Julian.

Hotel

Butterfield Bed & Breakfast

You know it's gonna be quaint, because it doesn't have a website. But apparently their breakfast is awesome.

Hotel

Eaglenest Bed & Breakfast

Cozy Victorian B&B, with fireplaces and a pool.

Hotel

Orchard Hill Country Inn

Centrally-located B&B with a slightly more modern feel than...really anything else on this list.
