WindTree is an awesome retreat perched high on top of the Santa Cruz Mountains in California, over looking the entire Monterey Bay and Santa Clara Valley. WindTree is sacred land used by many over the past 30 years for retreat and ceremony. It has also been a working "Wwoof" -ing farm for volunteers from all over the world to come and learn about organic gardening in a fun, beautiful, nurturing community restoring our sense of interrelatedness and encouraging planetary sustainability by our choices and concerns for the wellness of the environment. You can make your experience apart of this community or enjoy a quiet private camp site away from any activities. We are off the grid with solar power and our own well. We have small organic gardens with chickens and goats. You will love it up here under the stars. Note: RV's over 21 feet will have difficulties on our driveway.

Cob Cottage
Perfect getaway
What a fantastic place to stay! I had the best time here at the Cobb cottage. The property has amazing views in all directions and is full of little trails to wander around and find little nooks to sit at and let the nature around sink in. Thank you for having me

Sunrise
Extraordinary time
Such a lovely and secluded place! Such wonderful vines from the owners as well as the property. Would highly recommend if you want to get out and have a nice adventure, the sunrise lodge definitely loved up to its name! Definitely plan on coming back and enjoying more of what the hosts and property have to offer :)

Medicine Wheel
Views were nothing short of spectacular! It was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. I loved that there was always shade at all times of the day so I could adjust where I wanted to sit. Access to Uvas Canyon County Park is just 0.4 of a mile from the Medicine Wheel. I had a beautiful hike/run on the steep trail before I left. Great spot - I would definitely visit again.

Vista
Thoroughly enjoyed the Vista Site, would recommend to anyone who enjoy seclusion with amazing views! The stargazing was unbelievable. Having a spacious site was very convenient, but getting cozy with someone around a campfire on this site is *chefs kiss* 10/10 would recommend to anyone. 5 stars for Elena, & endless stars for anyone willing to look up. Thanks a bunch.

Vista
Soul spot
I found what I was looking for at the Vista. ABSOLUTE SILENCE. I have not heard silence like that in decades. A perfect blend of remoteness, stellar views, breeze, sun, and silence. Nice flat private spot, large, secluded, and comfortable. Don't let the road up turn you around--just take it slow and enjoy the journey, as once you get there, you will not want to leave. I did some deep healing and soul nourishing, and will be back soon to continue. Thank you Elena for hosting such a magical treasure 🌲🌲
