Amy and Bob are a super friendly and. thoughtful couple! We loved their guesthouse! Comfortable, equipped, perfect for our stay as family was nearby. We loved the setting, location to hike or bike into town, the open field in the back of the house, quietness in the orange groove...could go on....we hope to return some day. ☮️
The only thing more perfect than this cottage are the hosts
Our 2-month stay at Amy & Bob's cottage was an unqualified "wonderful". It is thoughtfully appointed, equipped with everything you need, and offers more space than we expected. The fragrant orange grove, towering eucalyptus trees, and comfy outdoor spaces are sublime. Bob & Amy are best of all: instantaneously responsive, gracious, attentive, sunny. We feel lucky to have found a place to stay in Ojai that is as magical as the valley itself.

About the host
Hosted by Amy Schwartz
In 2002 we moved to Mahattan Beach CA, from our home town of Seattle. We raised two sons there and love its amazing beach urban lifestyle and setting. In 2018 we bought a home in Ojai CA with a charming private 2 bedroom cottage that we offer as a monthly furnished rental.
We fell in love with Ojai on our first visit in 2003 and over the years we were drawn back seeking its magical peaceful setting of open space, trees, mountains, valley and its natural beauty. We see our home in Ojai as a long term home where we will be spending more and more time with family and friends.
Amy is a licensed marriage and family therapist with a private practice in LA South Bay, she's also a member of the LA Mayor's Crisis Response Team and a the Disaster Mental Health team with the Red Cross.
Bob is an active board member of a portfolio growth companies focused on technology, commerce and brands as well as he serves as Chairman of the not-for-profit Good360.
