Naturalists, Bird Watchers, Astronomers, & Fishermen:

Eagles Nest Winery & Cottage overlooks the Ramona Valley and , the Wildlife Research Institute (WRI) who hosts a series of weekend Hawk Watches in the Ramona Valley grasslands located five minutes from Eagles Nest early each year. Area raptors (birds of prey) frequent the skies above the cottage throughout the year.

Your aerie (a raptor's nest) offers unparalleled views of the valley landscape and ever changing weather features most notably the enchanting early morning ground fog, the warm summer sun – in Ramona’s “Valley of the Sun”, golden sunsets, and finally star-filled nights only a half hour from the city.

Amateur astronomers will enjoy star-filled nights only a half hour from the city. Set up your telescope at Eagles Nest - the clear night skies of Ramona are second only to the nearby Palomar and Laguna mountains. If you don’t have a telescope we can arrange for a private guided sky tour with several of our expert astronomy contacts.

Fishermen will enjoy nearby Lake Sutherland and its freshwater fishing.
