As local travel experts, we know what travelers are looking for when it comes to finding the perfect accommodations for their next trip. To compile our lists, we scour the internet to find properties with excellent ratings and reviews, desirable amenities, nearby attractions, and that something special that makes a destination worthy of traveling for.

It is no secret that life on the American Frontier was not easy and a pretty far cry from the romanticized images of the era that live in most of our heads and in the movies. But knowing that does precious little to keep many of us from fantasizing about covered wagons, saloons, cowboys, and duels at high noon. So let’s set aside reality for a bit (at least the harsher aspects of it) and check out one of the coolest places to experience the Old West in Southern California – an especially unique vacation rental in Temecula, CA.

Old West Temecula is unlike any other vacation rental I have ever seen. Unlike western-themed hotel rooms or restaurants, this is an entire 1800s Wild West village, and you and your posse have it all to yourselves.

These are not facades to just take a photo in front of. Step inside the “Bank of the West” and you will find an authentic replica of a bank teller counter, complete with money bags so you can stage your own heist!

Of course, if you get caught (and let’s face it, this is a small town full of just your friends or family), you’re gonna have to spend the night in the jail cell at the Sheriff’s Office. Fortunately, the single cell looks pretty darn comfortable.

This simply would not be the Old West without a full saloon. This 2-story building has a 15-foot wooden bar, poker tables, and antique pool table, and an actual self-playing piano from the 1800s.
