San Diego Country Estates was the first timeshare property in California. Since 1979, the resort has attracted tens of thousands of owners worldwide as well as non-timeshare owners looking to rent a suite. According to the American Resort Development Association (ARDA), “there were 1,548 timeshare resorts in the United States in 2010, representing approximately 197,700 units for an average resort size of 128 units. Of these, 5% were studio units; 22% were one-bedrooms; 65% were two-bedroom; and 8% three bedroom or more.” San Diego Country Estates offers one and two bedroom suites. 

Guests and owners continuously migrate to this resort, because of the charming, small town atmosphere. Most outsiders to the Ramona Valley area are unaware of the city’s rich history in North San Diego. The resort is a short distance away from historical Old Town Ramona, San Diego Zoo Safari Park, Ostrich Farm, Casey Tibb’s Western Center, Pala and Barona Casinos, and numerous award-winning wineries.

San Diego Country Estates has special rates for family reunions, sporting teams, company retreats, and tourist groups. View our Specials & Packages and escape with us!
