Explore. Experience. Unwind. Rewild.
Birdsong Backcountry Retreat is a privately owned nature reserve on 85 acres in the remote mountain area of San Diego County, known as the Chihuahua Valley. In creating this retreat, our goal was to provide guests with a high degree of privacy and solitude, along with creature comforts in the form of great amenities for humans, horse corrals for equestrians and fenced yards so you can bring your pets. Our intention is to provide opportunities for guests to experience a deeper connection nature and leave feeling recharged.

Experience Birdsong is about offering people a place to connect to Nature with focus on being rather than doing. It's about taking 2 hours to hike that trail you would normally do in 45 or finding that perfect sun warmed boulder that fits the contours of you back for the perfect nap. It is about remembering to breathe and slow the pace.

enjoyNo shortage of things to do but you can't go wrong with visiting one of our local wineries, hiking our Hawk Ridge trail to catch the sunset on Sundown Rock , crafting a memorable pizza, meeting our local Vinters and tasting the regional wines or soaking in the hot tub under a sky full of stars.
