Bucolic community near Escondido’s medical and light-industrial corridor
There aren’t any wineries in Vineyard, but the neighborhood is home to the vast Stone Brewing World Bistro and Gardens. The brewery is a short walk from Palomar Medical Center in a medical, business and light-industrial corridor comprising the northern half of the neighborhood. The nearby southern half is more residential, with the new Harmony Grove Village and other planned communities dotting former farmlands. “It’s an old agricultural and horseracing area,” says Alex MacLachlan, the president of the Downtown Escondido Business Association and “modern housing needs have caught up to it.” This means Vineyard is a good fit for homeowners who want to reside within a bucolic landscape but also have quick access to major local employers and medical facilities.

Homes built in the mid ‘90s in Hidden Hills have panoramic views, Spanish-style architecture and open floor plans. Amenities at Harmony Grove Village just west of Vineyard include a pool, multi-use trails and a park with a playground, picnic area and basketball courts. A four-bedroom home here is $1.9 million. Streets in established neighborhoods often feature sidewalks and are thick with evergreens and palms.

Relax in a lush garden space at Stone Brewing
Vineyard is home to the nationally famous Stone Brewing World Bistro and Gardens. “The restaurant and gardens are there, and it's a beautiful place to have dinner and take tours and do tastings,” MacLachlan says. The brewery, once the 9th largest in the U.S., was purchased in 2022 by Sapporo USA for $165 million. Elsewhere in the northern industrial sector, locals stop by small restaurants that are tucked between automotive and home improvement stores. Biscuits and gravy is the dish to order at Home Sweet Home Café, popular for its old-school diner fare. Tina’s Too is a casual stop for coffee, breakfast and delicious deli sandwiches. Locals shop for groceries at Albertsons.

Easy access to the I-15 and downtown Escondido
Vineyard sits at the junction of Highway 78 and the I-15 just west of downtown Escondido. San Diego is 30 miles south. North County Transit District (NCDT) Bus 353 runs through the neighborhood and links Palomar Medical Center with the Escondido Transit Center. The neighborhood is separated from Carlsbad and other oceanfront communities to the west by a range of hills, and a beautiful country drive links locals to the coast. This means Vineyard is also a good fit for those who want proximity to the beach. "It’s for someone who wants to be coastally close without coastal prices,” MacLachlan says.

How Vineyard got its name
And how did it get the name Vineyard, when there are no wineries in the neighborhood? The region once held two longtime egg ranches, which were sold to make way for Harmony Grove Village. MacLachlan suggests that the name Vineyard, created fairly recently, is more evocative than Chicken Farm.
4th of July Park sits just outside of the Vineyard neighborhood.
