Our children have enjoyed using them, but please exercise good judgment and caution with regards to age, ability, weight, etc.
Also, since it is an old working ranch, there's always the chance that we've missed a nailed board or something of that nature in the brush. Please be thoughtful about footwear in bushed areas.
This home has brought so much joy, community, and blessing to our family and friends, and we are excited to share it with others. As stated above, there is a chapel on the premises, and some religious items throughout the house. All are welcome, though we ask for respectful decorum as this property remains a sacred place to us.
20 minutes from the beach (Ventura, Oxnard, Malibu), and we've got some surfboards and boogie boards for you to take along! 6o minutes to Los Angeles, 35 minutes to Ojai, 40 minutes to Santa Barbara, and 7 minutes to the Camarillo outlets. There's plenty to do in the area, but you might not want to go anywhere at all. :)

The house was spectacular, perfect for our large family gathering, to celebrate my mom's 90th. So many unique and fun things to do in and outside of the house. Special thank you to Dan for coming over to move a few things around at the last minute!
Property was great, lots of cool outdoor extras in the yard to keep kids occupied. Pictures don't even quite capture all of the fun upgrades and interesting things about the house
It was such a beautiful home. And the host were so amazing, very welcoming and accommodating. I would 100% stay here again. Such beautiful well kept grounds and house. I loved every moment being here.
It was my daughters wedding weekend and we had out of town friends and family come. We thought a fun, aesthetically pleasing property would se the mood and this property did that. Everyone comment on how nice it was and large enough to support our group.

Thank you for the great review! We’d love to host you again anytime
I booked a weekend getaway at the farmhouse to celebrate a milestone birthday and Friendsgiving with a group of friends. We had a lovely time. The property is beautiful and has a lot to offer. The hosts were gracious, responsive, and accommodating. We had three kids with us and they had a blast exploring and playing in the treehouse and swings. We also had a couple musicians with us and they enjoyed playing the piano and bass; it was an added bonus to have musical instruments. There were eleven of us staying for the weekend and we invited a few more friends from the area to join us for the main dinner. It was fantastic that the kitchen table was able to seat all of us with the extension leaves added on. Given that we were cooking all of our own meals, it was helpful to have a well-appointed kitchen. One thing to keep in mind is that there is only one indoor shower. The outdoor bathroom is unique and cool but not the most comfortable for a shower if it’s chilly out. I really appreciated that the farmhouse was stocked with natural and eco-friendly products including the most incredible lavender chamomile dish soap. This place is a treat! We would love to come back again.
Beautiful property, Amazing views, very peaceful. We stayed the weekend for my daughter’s wedding and enjoyed the time we had here with family and friends. Emanuel was great with communication very responsive.
This house was truly amazing. The hosts are the best hosts I’ve ever dealt with. So understanding. And helpful with anything !

About the host
Hosted by Hope Schneir

Why they chose this property
This area of Camarillo has some of the best weather literally in the world. Most days are in the 70's, and if you drive 20 minutes north, south, or east, the temperatures are often significantly warmer. The Camarillo Hills were among the first developed areas in the 1960's when Camarillo was a real horse ranching town and attracted equestrian enthusiasts. Mid-century estates in this area are now highly sought after for their generous property sizes, iconic California "rambling ranch" custom builds, choice views and pretty much perfect climate. The neighborhood is safe, private, and quiet, though just a short jaunt into town for shopping, restaurants, and theaters. This property was the long-time home of the locally famous Camarillo White Horse Association, a historic breed of horse from Adolfo Camarillo's own horses.
What makes this property unique
Heaven on earth! Enjoy the beauty of nature with modern comforts and close proximity to town. This spacious family-friendly property is the perfect gathering place for your large group. With generously sized outdoor and indoor communal spaces, 3 fireside gathering areas, and lots of secret hide-away nooks, it's a magical wonderland of creativity, community, and rest.
