The Lilacs Cabin was part of the Bailey Palomar Resort, but now has separate ownership. Homesteaded in 1888 this was the center of Palomar town-ship life with a post office, soda fountain, dance hall, general store and hotel. The Bailey's Resort grew from these beginnings. City dwellers, like the Native Americans before them, wanted to get away from the summer heat or enjoy the seasons. As a result, by the early 1920s the Baileys set up recreational summer tent camps and later began to build a few hand-crafted guest cabins including the Lilacs;

 Great Weekend, June 3, 2009

By Valerie Michal (Wrightwood, CA USA)

The Lilacs is a terrific little cabin, old and quirky, very clean and well stocked. Very quiet and dark at night. Planning to come back in the fall for our 25th anniversary.

 

 Wonderful and relaxing, April 21, 2009

By Kira Edenhofer (Orange County, Ca)

It was just perfect for our group. We had 11 of us there (3 kids). It was comfortable and quiet! The kids enjoyed seeing deer, birds and other wildlife scampering through the grounds. What a great memory for them!

 

 Relaxing cabin in the pines., August 12, 2008

By Richard Ruiz (San Diego, CA)

Martin, really enjoyed my weekend stay. The quiet and fresh air are the perfect stress releivers. The close location to the palomar observetory and state park are also major pluses for me. Also enjoyed the outdoor fire place at night. Hope to return one of these days. Richard

 

 Lilacs is AMAZING!!!!!, September 25, 2007

By kerry and andrew ross (lake forest, ca usa)

My husband and I just spent our 11th anniversary at Lilacs cabin in the woods and let me tell you it was perfect! In fact, I am hesitant to tell all of you how charming and wonderful it was for fear that it will be booked and we won't be able to rent it again! Thanks Martin for being so accommodating!! we will be back with the kids!!
