Introduction
Leisure Village is a beautiful, active senior community located in Camarillo,
California. Leisure Village is nestled in the hills of the Santa Rosa Valley
with a gorgeous backdrop of the Santa Monica mountains. It is a community
filled with active, friendly residents making Leisure Village a fun and unique
place to live. This community has 2,136 homes. All of the homes are one story,
ranch style homes to provide easy access throughout the home. Twenty-five
models were originally built ranging in size from one bedroom at 866 square
feet to two bedroom with a den at 1,850 square feet. In addition to the many
homes still mimicking the builder’s original design, many owners have
customized their homes both in look and in size. Keep in mind in Leisure
Village if you have seen one home… you have not seen them all!
 Leisure
Village is located on 440 beautiful acres and was built by Leisure Technology.
The community was developed over 10 years from 1973 to 1984 in three phases. In
addition to the 2,136 homes, the community includes: an 18 hole par 3 golf
course, a recreation center, a swimming pool and spa, tennis and paddle tennis
courts, horseshoe pits, shuffleboard courts, RV parking, a fitness center,
various meeting rooms, 185 acres of beautifully landscaped common area, and
much more. All of the amenities are impeccably maintained by the association.
Leisure Village is a planned-unit development and is governed by an elected
Board of Directors. Along with the Board of Directors are many committees made
up of residents who serve with the association’s professional staff. Leisure
Village is age restricted; formally the community complies with State Civil
Code 51.3 and the Federal Fair Housing Act, and it is defined as a senior
housing development—meaning one resident must be at least age 55.

homes have a den and or a formal dining room. The homes have mostly 1 car and
some 2 car garages, along with some carports. The homes were built from 1973 to
1984.

Where is the nearest grocery store, drug store, hospital, and airport? Are
banks nearby?
The closest store to Leisure Village is Longs Drug store located just
outside the gates. The closest grocery store is Vons which is in Mission Oaks
Plaza about one mile from the Main Gate just up the hill on Woodcreek Dr.
(Which is also where you find your favorite Real Estate Consultants - Barlow
Williams Realty) The closest hospital is St. Johns Pleasant Valley Hospital
about four miles away. Also in the area are Los Robles Regional Medical Center
in Thousand Oaks and St. Johns Regional Hospital in Oxnard. The closest
commercial airport is in Oxnard about 20 miles away, but most residents use
Burbank or Los Angeles International Airport which are about an hour away. As
far as banks in the area you have Bank of America , Wells Fargo, and Washington
Mutual all within a mile.
Does Leisure Village provide transportation in and around Leisure Village?
Leisure Village is an active senior community and therefore does not
provide transportation to its residents within the community. Residents either
walk, bike, drive, (both fuel and electric vehicles) or some combination of
each to get around in this active community. The city of Camarillo does provide
free bus service to Leisure Village residents and the bus passes through
Leisure Village on the two main roads.
I have been told Leisure Village homes have no gas and are therefore
powered only electrically. So how much should I plan for as an electric bill?
It is true that all the homes run off electric power. It is hard to
put a number on your monthly bill because it will vary based on your usage,
home size, and type/quality of appliances. Your best resource is to check with
Southern California Edison Company at (800) 655-4555.
