Zohar has a beautiful, serene space - as others have said, it's perfect for a quiet retreat. Waking up in the redwoods is a wonderful experience. Henry Cowell Redwoods state park is only half a mile away, and there are several little restaurants and shops along route 9 - not to mention that you're 7 miles from Santa Cruz. But Zohar's space itself is a great place to catch up on reading, rest, and general relaxation because of the quiet and abundance of nature.
