About Allen Kroger
We love to travel, hike and bike in the outdoors. We also love to stay in nicely remodeled homes when we travel. It makes us feel at home and we hope you will feel at home at our Retreat.
Allen Kroger purchased this House in 2000
Why Allen Kroger chose Newbury Park
We originally purchased this property for storage and rental purposes. But over the years we have come to regard it as our second home. Which is why we decided to create the Retreat. So we can enjoy the tranquil beauty of the property and so other travelers can enjoy it as well.
What makes this House unique
We love the fact that the Retreat is nestled up against the Santa Monica mountains in a quiet, secluded section of Conejo Valley, But is still just minutes from shopping, dining, hiking and biking. Not to mention that it's only 20 miles from the beach and 45 miles for Santa Barbara or LA.

Again, the perfect place for us
5/5 Stayed Feb 2018

Once again, The Retreat was the perfect place for our stay on the West Coast, very near our friends and convenient to all places of interest in the area (as long as you have a car!)
The Retreat has all the comforts necessary to be your home away from home. We enjoyed our 18-day stay. Thanks for the hospitality.

Cozy and Clean
5/5 Stayed Jan 2018
Ken & Linda B.
Perfectly located in Newbury Park section of Thousand Oaks for our visit with family for the month of January. The private back yard was fenced and we picked avocados and lemons and lounged. The wifi signal is strong and fast, and we even brought our own Roku stick to plug into the flat screen TV to watch Netflix. The kitchen is fully equipped, including a Keurig coffee maker.
We recommend this house to a couple or single. The pull out bed in the den would suffice for small children, but remember the single bath is in the master bedroom, so that might present a problem for older kids.

This is our second time staying at this property. It is an extremely comfortable place to stay. Also very clean and quiet. We come to Thousand Oaks at least twice a year and hope to be able to stay here each time.

Lovely stay in a safe and quaint retreat
4/5 Stayed Aug 2017

We recently spent a week at this home and found it to be a very comfortable and quiet stay in a nice neighbourhood. The house is nicely stocked with most essentials. The owner was excellent about answering any questions we had prior to our stay and replied quickly with very helpful responses! We have never been to LA so found it to be a bit far from the areas we chose to visit, and traffic added to length of time we spent travelling to/from the house so that was our only issue while we were there, but I think it wouldn't be a problem if you're used to and expect that kind of thing. We would definitely recommend this home to others who are looking for a quiet and comfy home away from home.

Spent a few nights in the retreat with my family and it was the perfect size for us to hang out and be close to each other. It's a great place and it's very close to a lot of delicious restaurants and beautiful views.
