In the midst of a Southern California's Los Padres National Forest, and only 1 ½ hour drive north from Downtown Los Angeles, rests a private golf, tennis, hiking, mountain community with its small shops and restaurants. Within a short walk from the village center, golf course and club house is our house waiting for your group to get together. It snows typically December - March. Roads are well plowed & cindered but you have to be prepared with chains and/or 4WD vehicle. You may have to use our snow shovels at the house to clear doorways and pathways after a storm. Our side yards have a gentle slope and perfect for kids to sled. We offer 7 bedrooms and a loft. Two of the bedrooms are in a separate guest unit below the main house.
The bunk room sleeps 4, kids' favorite. The house has vaulted ceilings, 3 fireplaces (2 in master bedrooms), 5 bathrooms (jetted tubs off due to drought), beautiful large kitchen open to living/dining area, BBQ, huge deck overlooking the mountain view. Bring your family and friends and just enjoy your stay!
The house is non-smoking. You may smoke outside and on the deck.
Here's a full description of the property:
Entry is thru a foyer to an entry which opens up to the open kitchen on the right and living area w/ fireplace & dining area. The common space utilizes the “great-room” concept. Bedrooms & baths are along a hall to the left and below the great-room area downstairs. The living space opens up to a full house-length deck overlooking the back yard all the way to Apache Saddle Mountains in distance. This is a beautiful mountain view with its colorful sunsets. On the deck we have a table w/ seating. A staircase leads from the deck to the flat large back yard and the guest unit. There are 2 more entry doors to the deck from the house; from BR 3 & 5.
