“Staycation” Poor Economy & high gas costs encourage close vacations

by Dennis Grimes on June 11, 2009

The uncertainties of today’s economy and rising gas costs are spurring a trend towards short vacations close to home AKA “staycations”. Combine other passions with your visit – golfing, birdwatching, hiking.

We all need a break from the work-a-day life and a short, close vacation is just as beneficial and relaxing as a longer one that piles up work in your in-box ironically making returning to work a stressful event.

Eagles Nest Vacation Villa is located only 32 miles or minutes northwest of Downtown San Diego but it’s truly a world apart with its million dollar views, lush vineyards, fountain, and roses. We’re two hours from most of the LA region – and we offer a welcome respite from the warmth of the Arizona summer heat.
