The Loft At Julian Station - Food, Tasting Rooms And Country Walks In One Place!

Do you enjoy tasting rooms, healthy and delicious food and music? This comfortable 1940's era loft is located next to Julian Station. The Station features Colt's Burger Bar (grass-fed burgers with no hormones or antibiotics), 3 unique tasting rooms (hard cider, wine & chocolate, beer) and 5 fun shops and a gorgeous scenic back patio. The Loft is private and peaceful but still conveniently located just above Julian Station for an exciting, fun and easy stay. Although we have live music during the day and several tasting rooms, The Loft is private. Our place is very family oriented and things usually wind down around 7 pm (which is later than most places in Julian!). The Craft Beer Tap & Tasting room is open until around 8 pm but you won't hear anything from The Loft. We are adjacent to Highway 78 and a peaceful rural dirt road named Orchard Lane which offers scenic strolls and amazing views. We are also in walking distance from many other attractions in the Wynola area of Julian including restaurants, gold panning, a petting zoo and pumpkin patch, hay rides, 2 pie shops and 2 antique malls. We have so much to do on site at Julian Station, including:
-Colt's Burger Bar
-Julian Hard Cider Tasting Room
-The Cooler Craft Beer Bar & Tasting Room
-Julian Wine & Chocolate Tasting Room
-3 Antique Shops
-Air Hockey, Pool, Arcade Games
-Kids Rides and Fenced Play Area
-A stunning back patio for eating, drinking and live music on Sundays

If you want to visit the country and also want to enjoy good food, drinks and attractions, you will love staying at The Loft at Julian Station!
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned cottage, which features a fireplace and a Smart TV. There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker, and housekeeping is provided on request.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as an arcade/game room and barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Surprise Surprise
This place is nothing like the photos. We felt like we were staying in someone's full-time home. So much personal clutter in every room. Bathroom was gross - mold everywhere. 10 bottles of shampoo on the floor of the little shower. Nowhere to put your toiletries because the cabinets were packed. Closets were packed messes - couldn't hang your clothes up. The primary bedroom closet smelled of musty mold. Missing or burned out light bulbs, dirty BBQ, 4-cup coffee pot, fireplace thermostat didn't work, constant problems with the WiFi (no TV). The only thing this place has going for it was the location. Has potential but the owners need to do some work and put some money into this place.

Great place with amazing location
We loved staying here. The location is great. Close to downtown Julian, but far enough away from the crowds. We loved the brewery and cider options right downstairs and there's a nice restaurant, pizza place, and pie spot within walking distance. We would definitely stay here again!!

Cute Historic Loft
Cute place & beautiful Mountain Views ! We read every review before booking here. Lots talked about being family friendly, a great quiet location.. etc. You hear no noise from the Taste Room as the description says, because you hear it from the highway.. No one mention the fact that we would have to bring a case of bottled water for our family, because the tap water has a system, that did what for it in the end?? It was smelly & tasted awful. We had other concerns to be addressed, to which the Owner was very kind but we will not be returning like others said they would.

Total Gem
Stayed here with my spouse and two kids ages 3 and 7 and it was just perfect. The location could not be better. Fort Cross is across the street as is apple picking. Downstairs there were so many fun things for my kids to do. My only concern had been that it would be noisy since it is just off the road and next to the junction, but it was quiet as can be and we all slept great.

Charming
I stayed here with a friend of mine to finish hiking the Coast to Crest trail, 3 of the trails were just down the road. The place was charming and in a great location if you want to stay away from the crowds in Julian while still within a quick driving distance. The only downside is the highway noise, I wish I would have brought ear plugs for sleeping. Also note that most of Julian Station is only open Friday-Sunday. Despite the road noise, I look forward to returning with my family.

Quaint spot
Totally love the location. Even though it is on the main road, we couldn’t hear the cars! There was no check in, we just walked in and started our vacay! Good food and drinks in below us and a few others that were walking distance and only a 5 min drive to downtown Julian. Heroes was our favorite eatery. Great local vibes and music, food was delicious and staff was the friendliest here! Went hiking at Merigan trail to a beautiful waterfall only 20 mins away! Will highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing vacay !

Holiday weekend
It was a very peaceful, relaxing stay for the long weekend. It was very convenient being in proximity to small shops and the tasting rooms (wine and hard cider). We really enjoyed staying at the loft. It had everything we needed for our stay. The only thing I can suggest is the bathroom could use an update, but other than that, everything was perfect! Definitely would stay here again!

1000% Will Be Back!
I do not think the words I am about to say will be strong enough to convey how much I truly loved this place. My husband and I needed a get away from work and the hustle and bustle and our anniversary was coming up. I looked through multiple places that were dog friendly and decided on this absolute gem. The pictures of the this place do not catch the actual essence of how remarkable the area is. The Cider room, shops, wine tasting, and beer garden are literally right outside of your door. The first night, we walked 7 minutes with our dogs down to Heroes where we were met by the nicest, down to earth employees. Our waitress was switching over and was almost out the door and asked if our dogs needed water. We said that would be great and we would ask the next person. She sat her stuff down and said, ."no way.. you have dogs and I love dogs". One of the other employees even asked me if I wanted a blanket! The next day, we hung around Julian Station (which I really can't express how fantastic it is) and bought a few gifts from the woodworking shop. The owners, Brian and Molly, who also have their own Real Estate business, treated us like we had been friends for years. They have the neatest items I never would have thought of, like personal charcuterie boards that hold your glass of wine! I stopped in the leather shop, as well, and bought a cowhide bag from a gentlemen who I could talk to for HOURS. We then made our way down the hall to get a few drinks before dinner. The two working at the Julian Cider were freaking awesome. They talked to us more about the area and the people , and we just fell more in love with Julian Station. We ended our final night at Jeremy's, which was also just a 7 minute walk. We sat outside and had a lovely dinner, ordering all of the recommendations given to us by our waitress, who, you guessed it, was absolutely fantastic. If you are debating on staying at The Loft, don't. Just book it. The location is wonderful for a nice getaway with not a lot of people, but the ones who are there, will treat you no different than they would treat their friends. Staying here reminded me of growing up back in East Tennessee. The interior even reminded me of my friend's parent's house and it brought back nothing but good memories. I cannot wait to go back. If the Loft ever went up for sale, you best believe I would be first in line to put in a bid.
