Stone hearth. Eating and living areas. Warm and restorative bedroom. Spa on the deck for evening soaks under the tremendous canopy of our unpolluted dark skies.

The entire property is supported by two excellent water wells, waterlines throughout the acreage, on-grid underground power, a robust 40-kilowatt solar array, and a 22-kilowatt backup generator for backup power, and is on septic. The certified forest therapy trails make a happy path throughout the property, 3.5 miles onsite total, winding over meadows of sage and native grasses, through thickets and under the canopy of over 200 scattered oaks, and then high up top past ancient manzanitas to one of the most incredible vistas for miles around. There is even a yurt - can you imagine hosting get-togethers, seminars, or classes here? Mindful rest, self-care, and community, all in one. The Pacific Crest and California Riding & Hiking Trails are nearby, and the property backs up to the Bureau of Land Management Open Space. You can hike or ride horses for DAYS, glamping and staging your excursions from right on site.
