You’re Invited… to Costa Rica Picture this: verdant rolling hills, tropical rain forests, active volcanoes, pristine beaches, a lively cowboy culture, countless species of exotic flora and fauna, and all this in a place roughly the size of West Virginia. Welcome to my home.

Welcome to Costa Rica.

It is difficult to choose a starting point when discussing the upside to living in Costa Rica. There are so many uniquely positive aspects to this place that one can easily become lost in minutia, factoids and details. To describe broadly what it means to live here, the words freedom, nature, and beauty come to mind. Costa Rica is a place with its feet in two disparate worlds: one where the pace of life is much, much slower and peaceful than the average North American is accustomed—so much so it may seem stifling to new arrivals; the other is a place that is essentially modern, with access to all the technologies and conveniences of a leading nation’s cities. It is a unique balance I do not question, but simply enjoy.

County v California

Experience the relaxed lifestyle of this exclusive 26-acre, privately gated equestrian property in the heart of Hidden Valley. This family retreat extends a warm welcome to guests, and beckons them outdoors to enjoy the natural beauty and privacy of the carefully executed landscaping and seating areas. Horsemen will appreciate the well-appointed stables and riding facilities of this imaginative ranch retreat. Stable amenities include six upgraded double-size stalls with yoke openings, improved interior/exterior lighting and rubber aisle pavers. Four of the six stalls have in/out pipe corrals. Stalls can easily be divided to accommodate up to 12 horses with six oversized stalls. Other amenities include an upgraded fly spray system, fans and sound system. Custom cabinetry in cross ties, kitchen and tack room offer extra storage. Stable lounge includes radiant floor heat and an industrial washer and dryer set up is available. Training areas consist of five horse turnouts, along with new dressage and jumping arenas and an adjoining judges’ stand. Environmentally conscious considerations are everywhere, from the planting of over 100 new trees along Hidden Valley Road to the use of recycled materials in construction and décor. Great care and planning have been taken to return the site to its original woodland origins by removing paved areas, clearing deadwood and old growth, removing water heavy shrubberies and replacing them with drought-tolerant greenery. New trees include evergreen ash, cedar, pine and sycamore and the ground’s history is preserved in the 100-year-old grove of oaks. Water conservation is addressed by the upgraded irrigation system, complete with clocks, new valves and low-flow sprinkler heads. A new well with pump house supplies the lower irrigation tank. The pump house has been soundproofed to maintain the peaceful atmosphere.

Drainage issues have been corrected by reinforcing the creek bed to properly channel and contain water flow from the mountains. Each of the eight contemporary farmhouse style cottages has its own style, and this celebrity compound is arranged to accommodate large or intimate gatherings.

All cottages are outfitted with high-end appliances such as Miele, Jenn-Air and Viking for the convenience of guests. Thoughtful decorating that incorporates both vintage and contemporary features suggests a relaxed, comfortable setting that has evolved over time.
