Guest access
Our property is secluded at the end of a 1/4 mile private neighborhood road.
Guests are welcome to roam our farm/forest which is covered with avocado and citrus as well as magnificent large oaks and abundant chaparral . There is access to private trail with views of the Ojai Valley and Matilija canyon. The trail reaches into the mountains where the Chumash Indians established their sacred sites, (Hiking boots and long pants advised).
Direction to the trail:
From front of house cross the parking area towards fence and make a left to the dirt road. it winds up and around the property. Once you pass the little car gate make a right uphill all the way to meditation point. This trail is about 35 min. round trip. Regretfully the trial to pyramid point is harder to access and washed up at spots due to erosion.
A few minute drive back to hwy 33 North you can find shady pools along the creek. simply drive a couple of min. north (or longer) park on a shoulder and find a path down to the creek. Enjoy :)

Other things to note
Ojai has a wonderful year-round climate with warm days even in winter and lots of sun and cooler nights, rain falls mainly in winter.
The 15 miles of mountains that surround Ojai offer beautiful hiking trails with views, waterfalls and natural sulfur hot springs.

Neighborhood highlights

Ojai is 90 miles north of Los Angeles (100 minutes by car from LAX), and 30 miles east of Santa Barbara. We are 15 miles north of Ventura which is only a 25 minute drive down to the the wonderful Pacific Ocean beaches.
For hundreds of years, the area around Ojai was a Chumash Indian spiritual ground. In addition it drew in many of the world's famous philosophers (Annie Besant, Aldous Huxley, Krishnamurti), artists (Duchamp, Chagall, Beatrice Wood), awareness/spiritual teachers ( Byron Katie, Gay and Kathlyn Hendricks), and the Theosophy Institute to name a few. Throughout the year you may enjoy art, music, play writing/theater, yoga, meditation, and many festivals that attract people from all over the world. There is also a wonderful tennis tournament and a stellar golf course.
The valley’s unique east west orientation (most other USA valleys run north south) floods Ojai with a special light attracting artists in much the same way the east west Hamptons near New York does. The light also accentuates its surrounding majestic mountains and creates its "pink moment" . There are many citrus, avocado, and olive orchard farms thriving in its Mediterranean climate reminding one of Tuscany, Provence and parts of Spain. Hikes in and around Ojai challenge people at different skill levels.
Our property is in Ojai’s NW corner just north of its “newly hip” Meiners Oak section.

Born in the 50s
My work: Self employed import/wholesale and owner of Center for Enlightenment in San Francisco Bay area
Carol Cilliers Blaschke is an astrologer/metaphysician/healer, avid yoga practitioner, mostly raw foodie. I was born and lived in Southern Africa for 20 years before coming to the San Francisco Bay area. I currently mostly live in Ojai, California. I have traveled a great deal all over the world and tend to be pretty casual, preferring hiking and being in nature but also love some cultural input. Aubrey Balkind was a creative graphic designer with work in numerous museums. Presently, he uses his "baby-mind" to solve strategic business and lifestyle opportunities that effect health. I grew up in South Africa and came to the USA to attend Columbia University's MBA program and thrived for 40 years in New York. The west coast beckoned, so I moved about 6 years ago settling in Venice Beach and recently in magical Ojai. Love yoga, hiking, bicycling, creating and eating Carol's amazing, rejuvenating raw food.
