About This Home

As of January 2022

Living amongst ancient redwoods in the Mount Madonna State park pathway lies a unique historic hidden retreat. Make this your year around Summer Camp encompassing natural walking trails, large pool, pool house, carriage house, future potential building pad, and two incredible yoga and/or meditation decks. One of which is nestled in a towering tree grove and the other overlooks stunning canyon and eastern foothill views. With a treasured and somewhat tawdry past, this Compound consisting of 35+ acres formerly used as the Emmanus Christian Center and even a Nudist Colony during prior ownership. Followers of the Tu Vien Kim Monastery which this property abuts, would consider this land a Zen oasis. Many would consider this special, you can consider this Home.
