Twin Creek Ranch
Orchard calm beneath the mountains
Ten acres of orchards, a gated approach, and a sweeping mountain backdrop set the tone at Twin Creek Ranch. In upper Ojai, this modern farmhouse retreat gives families and friends room to gather away from the village bustle, while Ojai itself is about a ten-minute drive away. The setting feels more like a private country home than an institutional retreat: orchard greenery, open land, and the surrounding Topa Topa range do much of the work of slowing the pace. Retreats hosted here can make use of the property's spacious, rural character, but the program and daily rhythm depend on the group and organizer rather than a single house tradition. Come for a hosted retreat or a restorative gathering with your own circle, and confirm lodging details, meals, and the specific retreat schedule before booking.
