3 Star Hotels in Cuyamaca Rancho State Park, California

"We brought our telescopes for astrophotography but unfortunately the weather was uncooperative. The house itself is a little dated but otherwise nice. Minor issues only, and was spot on for what we expected. Would probably not do as a romantic getaway or something but as a budget friendly convenient place for dark skies it fits the bill. Big backyard was good for our numerous telescopes. "

"The ranch is a little hard to find on Google Maps as we were driving over in the dark after viewing wildflowers in Anza Borrego- it's actually opposite the Warner Springs Ranch gas station. We were saved by an alert and super helpful security guard who spotted us! The cottage is small and cozy, with two heaters in case it gets cold. Basic amenities were provided. It was a good place for us to get a rest and sleep before heading back up to the Bay Area the next day."

"Absolutely stay here! But just be aware .. it is kinda far from things and we weren’t able to Uber places like we had planned. Car is a necessity for this place. Other than that little issue, our stay was PERFECT. We loved the condo and how it had all the amenities, even a stove and laundry in the room. So clutch! Highly recommend! Very clean!"
