Mary is a wonderful host with lots of great tips on the local area. The room and adjoining outside area are super private. It feels like you’re renting the entire property. There is also a private lounge room seperate from the main house with a fold out couch option and the outside areas have so many lounging options plus jacuzzi & sauna! The weather was too hot to use a sauna but the jacuzzi was wonderful and the night time lighting creates a magical ambiance. The room also comes with a mini fridge which was wonderful to come home to cold drinks. Mary has thought of everything. Highly recommend 👍👍

Perfect spot to stay while checking out the Ojai area. Neighborhood was great, property was wonderful and relaxing. Donkeys were great! Mary was wonderful, let us know about some great local spots. Would definitely stay again if in the area!

Beautiful property with several outdoor areas in which to hang. Mary was a warm host and the donkeys (and puppy Bonkers) were charming. So much to do in the area- walks, beach, kayaking- and the Oak Creek Winery nearby is now one of my favorites for grounds and wine. As Mary notes in the description, it's in a ranchy space so there are vestiges of the natural world around, but the bath and bedrooms are clean and comfortable. A unique and wonderful space!

Mary and her son were all the time nice and helpful to us and help us prepair the bbq and showed us every corner of her Property that is very quiet and cozy,We loved it,it has many amenities,jacuzzi,sauna, relaxing covered shaded sofas,chairs set ups to enjoy the views of trees and green areas,also they have very friendly and lovely 2 donkeys that we enjoyed feeding and petting and a playful puppy.We really gad a great time there!

Host is down to earth and just as described - can be as present or discrete as you wish. 2 rooms with private bath and access to living room and kitchen. Serene outdoor space under the Oak trees, babbling brook/ fountain. Oak View is about 5 miles away from Ojai towards Ventura. The donkeys are gentle and friendly. Less polished then Ojai accommodations but more interesting and Ojai bike trail opens up at end of cul de sac.

Splendid -- better than the photos Wonderful private location -- short hop to Ojai and other sights But this is the sort of VRBO that you could rent and just stay there without doing any other sight seeing Mary has done wonderful job of adding a magic touch to the rental unit I highly recommend this VRBO rental

Such a lovely venue and very comfortable - truly enjoyable.

We loved our stay at Mary’s! Everything was as described. The donkeys were so sweet! Waking up and seeing them was so fun. And Bonkers the dog is so amazing - so well behaved! The location and setup is so dreamy - you see what seems like a regular house and then you get in the backyard and this whole oasis unfolds :) We’d go back to Mary’s place for sure! Thank you for an amazing stay.
