Thank you so much Alison! We can’t wait for you guys to come back! Merry Christmas!
Everything about the house was great! The space was beautifully appointed, clean, and the location is perfect. I especially appreciate all the wonderful details Laurie included to make our stay relaxing and enjoyable. She thought of everything! We’d come back any day :)
My friends and I love staying here for a girls’ trip! The home is stunning. Laurie is a great host and offers many great amenities within the home. The house is perfectly located between the ocean and downtown Ojai. Highly recommend staying here!
Incredible house, super spacious for our group of 6 friends and the views from the backyard are amazing! We so much much enjoyed having the fire pit at night while watching the sunset.

We are so glad your group had a wonderful stay Veronica. You were perfect guests and we hope you stay with us again!
Beautiful, spacious, well appointed. Lovely, secluded location near Lake Casitas and Ojai. Kind and responsive hosts. Clear instructions. Recommend arriving in daylight as signage is hard to see at night, and driveways are steep and narrow, and a little unnerving in rainy weather. Otherwise, perfection.
Exceeded Our Expectations! Beautiful Home in a Beautiful Setting
Our experience from start to finish was lovely. We could not have been happier with this beautiful home. Our host was attentive and thoughtful. Look forward to staying there again in the future.

Katherine it was such a pleasure to host your group. Thank you for being such great guests. Please come and stay with us again soon!
Nine of us celebrated my dad’s 90th birthday at this beautiful villa. The house itself is wonderful with lots of light, a large open gourmet kitchen, and lots of outdoor spaces to gather and lounge. The master bedroom suite is magnificent. We played chamber music in the large living room, shared wine and appetizers outdoors, and joyfully prepared meals in the kitchen to enjoy at the large dining room table adjacent to the kitchen. Thanks for such a lovely stay.
The attention and care of the house and amenities offered were a really wonderful addition to an already beautiful home with a stunning view. Many wonderful areas to hang out and enjoy the scenery. We had a wonderful time and shared many laughs!

Thank you so much Kim! You were so easy to communicate with and we really appreciate your kind words and for taking such great care of our home. We look forward to hosting you again.
We enjoyed getting together with three families in this beautiful space within 20 min of Ojai. Beds were comfy, towels fluffy and the views were splendid. The kids loved the game room set up in the garage. Thank you for sharing your place Laurie!

We loved hosting you guys! Thank you for being such great guests. You left the house so nice and were wonderful at communicating. Really appreciate you all! Please come again. ❤️
There was a group of 6 of us and it was such a lovely and relaxing stay. The house is just like the pictures (even better) - plenty of room, great kitchen and dining space, and beautiful outdoor patios. It's a bit of a curvy drive into Ojai but worth it to have the views the house provides. Thanks Laurie for a wonderful stay!

Thank YOU Courntey! We loved hosting you ladies and are so glad you enjoyed your stay. Please come stay with us again soon. :)
I hosted my first retreat for 5 women and they were absolutely floored by the property from the moment they walked in. It was the perfect getaway from Los Angeles. Laurie was an incredible, responsive host. Honestly, the pictures don't do it justice. You really have to see this place for yourself. The love and care put into every detail is felt.

Thank you so much for choosing our villa for your retreat. Hosting groups like yours is always such a joy, and it makes me so happy to know that you and your guests felt comfortable and cared for during your stay. Creating a welcoming space where women can come together, relax, and connect is exactly what I love most about hosting retreats here. I truly hope you’ll come back again — it would be such a pleasure to welcome you all anytime!
Our family gathered to celebrate my daughter's graduation from UCSB. It was so fun to enjoy cocktails with a view, cook, eat together in the beautiful kitchen and dining room, and wake up and do it all again. Bird-watching was a highlight! And, the hammock was glorious!

Thank you so much Kathy! You were such a wonderful guest and we really hope you stay with us again. Thank you for your kind words!
The photos just don't do this house justice. It's a magical spot place and I can't believe how close it is to LA.
We cooked, lounged, swung, and had a cozy time. If you love to relax and hang, def consider this home! Also, its great for kids and people who karaoke. :)
This is easily one of the most beautiful houses I have stayed at. We noticed the attention to detail. It was clean, well stocked & the views were gorgeous. Our hostess was communicative. My bachelorette weekend with my closest friends was made was made even more memorable by this breathtaking location. It is well worth the windy & steep drive up to the villa but please be aware that it may be difficult for drivers to get there. One of our Uber drivers cancelled our ride because they could not find the property. Other than that, it was a great stay & I hope I can stay again someday.
The driveway is a bit scary but the view from the top is worth it! Great place for a family getaway. We had great grandma (87), my wife and I (early 60s), our three kids (mid 20s to early 30s) and their spouses. The place worked great for everyone! During our four day stay we drove to Santa Barbara three times and Ojai four times and it didn't seem that far. The kitchen was great, the Traeger was great, the beds were super. The game room in the garage was fun and the outside shower was remarkably useful. Laurie, our hostess, was very responsive. We had a lovely weekend and thank our hosts!
This property is perfection. It’s not chess the house that’s impressive but it’s the attention to detail. Each room had slippers ,Tylenol and chocolate and each bathroom had a basket with “things you could’ve forgotten”. our family was there for Christmas and the decorations were so well thought. The host was always available for any questions. that being said, the house was just plain amazing on top of hill, overlooking the valley views all around, just sheer perfection. Def looking forward to going again!

Evelyn I'm just seeing this! You are so sweet! Thank you so much!!! It was Christmas and you have kids and I KNOOOWWWW what it's like to travel on Christmas with my family and not even have a tree (so depressing). So when you texted asking if there was going to be a tree, I was like "Yes there is going to be a tree!" LOL
Seriously so glad you all liked it and we were able to be a small a part of your family memories. Please please come and stay with us again you were great guests!
Our family get-away was perfect in every way. Our host, Laurie, provided great information not only about the property, but also about the area - activities, shopping, dining. We took her advice (which was spot on) and hiked, went to the beach, attended a super 4th of July fireworks show in Ventura, shopped, played games, had fun discussions, and comfortable rest. We ate out and in. The kitchen is fantastic for large gatherings. We had leisurely breakfasts while enjoying the beautiful views. We loved meeting Laurie’s father in law who lives down the hill. Every one of us ages 6-68 want to go back. There are so many lovely touches provided I’m afraid to try to mention them all because I will undoubtedly leave something out. We so appreciate the hospitality shown by Laurie and feel fortunate that she and her family share this incredible home on VRBO.
We absolutely loved our stay at this secluded villa. The property exceeded our expectations, both in its description and photos. It was as if we were being hosted by a caring family member, genuinely invested in our comfort and well-being. Thoughtful welcome gifts and relaxing music greeted us upon arrival, and the breathtaking hilltop views from the back door left us in awe.
We made the most of our trip with a visit to Carpinteria Beach (just a 15-minute drive away), and even hired Linda, a local yogi, for a serene yoga session under the tree in the backyard. Downtown Ojai’s shops, breweries, and restaurants were also a highlight. We had so much fun playing board games at the stunning dining table and ending our nights around the fire pit, toasting marshmallows and enjoying a glass of wine.
Our three-night stay felt full of experiences, yet we could have easily spent double the time here and still discovered more to enjoy. Thank you, Laura, for your thoughtful and gracious hosting. I hope to return and would highly recommend this villa to anyone looking for a peaceful, unforgettable getaway.

Wow! What a beautiful and lovely review Mark! Thank you so much! It was such a pleasure to host your group and it makes us beyond happy to hear how much you enjoyed your stay and our home. We hope you come back again soon.
Our stay in this beautiful home was the best rental experience I’ve ever had! Not only in this space absolutely stunning, it is clearly well cared for and loved by the owners.
Check-in and check-out was very smooth and Laurie is an excellent communicator. She’s thought of everything! We were especially grateful for the level of detail she provided - from plenty of local recommendations to clear and extensive instructions on how to reach the property. Plus tiny treats on our beds!
The property itself - the pictures don’t do this home justice! We had plenty of space and our entire group slept VERY comfortably. We also had enough space to cook and eat together and spend time in the common spaces. And the views!!! You’ll feel like you have been transported to Tuscany.
The driveway leading up to the home is steep as mentioned in the description - our cars were fine but the SUVs had an easier go of it. Nervous drivers may want to consider switching with someone more confident before going uphill, but it is well paved and completely manageable.
We absolutely loved our stay here and it exceeded our expectations in every way. This home is perfect for both families and friend reunions. Our weekend here was our most favorite of the year so far!! You absolutely won’t regret it. We can’t wait to come back!

Anna, thank you so much for your kind words! It's reviews like these that make all our work worth it. :) I am so happy you had such a great experience. We can't wait to host you again. You were wonderful guests!
I will start by saying that my 12 person group experienced a storm and complete power outage within three hours of arriving to the property (apparently this was a first for the property owners and suffice it to say the outage was no fault of their own). The power did not come on until late into the second night of our stay. That being said, this is one of the best experiences I’ve had on a rental property EVER. The property is simply magical. There is not another home visible from any of the windows or property itself. PURE, lush expansive landscape. The home is beautifully appointed, spacious, and every detail is carefully considered. While we did not have electricity, we had a beautiful roaring fire and fantastic gas range stove with a well stocked kitchen, so it was still easy to cook. Laurie sent care packages over because of the inconvenience of the power outage, which was so thoughtful. She even offered to refund part of our stay, which I refused. A gentleman brought us bags of ripe avocados and oranges as well. Wonderful people, wonderful home, wonderful property. Cannot recommend enough! We all left with our hearts and souls pouring over. Thank you, Laurie!!

Wow! What a wonderful and kind review. Thank you so much Rachel. It certainly was an eventful and extraordinary weekend. Thank you and your group for being so exceptionally gracious and patient. I'm so happy that you all were still able to make the most of that weekend. We can't wait to host you all again- hopefully with better weather next time! ;)
Our extended family of 3 generations greatly enjoyed our stay here. We cooked and the hosts provided everything possibly needed to cook for a large group. Beds were comfortable and linens luxurious. The large beautifully appointed living room provided a perfect gathering place for the family. The driveway is very steep, but we all made the trip to the top of the hill! Great stay!!!!
