Welcome! I’m Priscilla (Curlypri), a San Diego native who fell in love with Julian’s small-town charm and mountain beauty. Hosting at The Heart of Julian gives me the joy of sharing this special place with guests from all walks of life. I’m a bilingual Notary Public and Wedding Officiant, which means I can offer couples the convenience of issuing marriage licenses and officiating ceremonies on-site — saving time while creating unforgettable moments. Beyond weddings, I love curating concierge experiences for my guests: from spa treatments and yoga to cooking classes, painting sessions, and wine tours. My passion is helping people slow down, connect, and enjoy an effortless stay. When I’m not hosting, you’ll find me exploring Julian’s trails, enjoying its seasonal festivals, and, of course, indulging in apple pie. My goal is to make every stay not just comfortable, but truly meaningful and memorable.
JGuests love staying in Julian’s historic district — a charming mountain town known for apple pie, boutique shops, and seasonal festivals. From The Heart of Julian, you can stroll just minutes to Main Street cafés, antique shops, wine tasting rooms, and local breweries. Outdoor lovers enjoy nearby hiking trails like Volcan Mountain, Stonewall Peak, and Three Sisters Falls, or fishing at Lake Cuyamaca. Fall brings apple-picking season, while winter transforms Julian into a snowy wonderland. Other nearby highlights include wineries, golf courses, horseback riding, and the Wolf Conservation Center. Whether you’re here for a cozy retreat, an adventure, or a celebration, the neighborhood blends small-town charm with big experiences.
