ABOUT
An Artistic Sanctuary in the Hills of Fallbrook
Located at 3335 Red Mountain in Fallbrook, Reverie Heights was originally designed in the 1950s by Phyllis Nadal, a designer for Saks Fifth Avenue, as a private family retreat. Decades later, it was thoughtfully transformed by pianist and educator Michelle Li, who named it after Debussy’s “Rêverie” to reflect her vision of a space dedicated to relaxation, creativity, and quiet inspiration.
Perched high above the valley with sweeping views of the hills and ocean, Reverie Heights offers an immersive experience in beauty and tranquility. Guests can play music, paint, practice yoga, sing karaoke, pick fruit, sip tea and wine, or interact with the friendly animals on the farm. From soaring eagles by day to starry skies by night, nature is always close at hand.
With its clean air, organic offerings, and vibrant wildlife, it’s an ideal retreat for seniors, families, and children seeking rest and reconnection with nature. For music and art lovers, it is a true creative haven—featuring a Steinway Model L, Yamaha C3, acoustic recording setup, and chamber music listening stations. A drawing table, easel, and swing chair complete the atmosphere of peace and artistic inspiration.
The expansive 270-degree view lawn is perfectly suited for concerts, gatherings, and private events. Reverie Heights also hosts intimate music masterclasses and residential retreats, and serves as the home base for the Reverie Piano Trio, performing throughout San Diego to Los Angeles County.
