About this property

Private Ojai Hillside Retreat with Pool & Views

Set on a quiet hillside overlooking the west valley of Ojai, this peaceful retreat offers privacy, beautiful views, and the feeling of being surrounded by nature—while still being just minutes from town. Rolling hills and a small grove of avocado trees create a serene setting where guests can relax and enjoy the calm beauty of the Ojai Valley.

The property now includes a total of four bedrooms, combining the main house and an attached private guesthouse—ideal for families, groups, or guests seeking a bit of extra space and separation.

The main house features three comfortable bedrooms. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a California king bed, fireplace, and French doors that open to a private balcony with sweeping valley views. The ensuite bathroom offers a soaking tub and separate shower. Also upstairs is a second bedroom with two twin beds and access to a full bathroom, along with a second balcony.

Downstairs, a queen bedroom is conveniently located near the main living areas, along with an additional full bathroom.

The living room features a fireplace and French doors that open to the patio, creating effortless indoor–outdoor living. The kitchen and dining area are well-equipped for gathering, whether for shared meals or a relaxed evening at home.

The attached guesthouse provides a private one-bedroom retreat with its own entrance, perfect for additional guests, extended family, or those wanting more privacy. It features a queen bedroom, a modern bathroom, a full kitchen, and a comfortable living area with a TV. A washer and dryer are also included, making it especially convenient for longer stays or work-from-home visits.

Outside, guests can enjoy the private patio with a swimming pool, barbecue, and outdoor dining area—an ideal setting to unwind, take in the views, and enjoy Ojai’s relaxed pace of life.

First, I want to say that Kara and August couldn't have been more accommodating. The property was very clean and neatly decorated. We found everything we needed to eat in, appliances were clean and functioning, great ice maker. My granddaughter and I loved the pool and backyard, wonderfully peaceful. Great place to read a book. The beds were very comfy, air-conditioning more than adequate. I wouldn't hesitate to do a second stay again.
