About the host
Hosted by Jennifer
I'm a sounder of music, spinner of words, musician/ recording artist passionate about nature, being in the moment, local organic food, running, yoga, biking, meditation and being a mom.. It's my total passion and joy to share this land with guests, creating an inspiring environment for people to reconnect with each other and nature... get back to the basics of being alive!
Why they chose this property
This property is unique for it's off the grid spaciousness (we're on 11 acres!!!) surrounded by properties with greater acreage and national forest. It's a stunning natural land and a HOME- the combination of which allows one's nervous system to truly RELAX. Ahhhh! I treat this place as a nature preserve for visitors to experience. YET we are only a few minutes from the wonderful city of Santa Barbara... rich in culture, entertainment, art, great food, Santa Ynez wine country, (which is another world in itself!), mountain trails and beaches both private and local. This place is basically in the center and has the best of all worlds at the tip of your finger tips. But the truth is, it's so beautiful and relaxing here.... many just choose to bring their food and never leave the land!
What makes this property unique
Here you are coming into a well loved home with a host who is passionate about creating the most magical soulful experience for guests, which is a VERY different energetic experience than what any hotel or resort could offer. All income from sharing this space with the good folks who come, go right back into beautifying and nurturing the property.. Very welcoming, soulful, spacious and private.
