Jupiter Mountain House is a great place to stay! It took us about a half hour to get there from Magic Mountain. Ed welcomed us in, showed us around and left us to enjoy the entire place. We snuggled into a cool and comfy upstairs Master Suite, the boys each claimed a downstairs room. We slept well between clean cotten sheets in the quiet country setting, woke at our leisure to enjoy waffles, fresh fruit and scrambled eggs we made from fixins he urged us to enjoy, and we most certainly did! This would be an ideal spot to pause in a trek along the PCT. Maybe next year we'll go hike it :)
