Quiet, pretty spot with easy access to everything!

I so enjoyed our stay at this location. I had to work in LA, and also wanted to do some sightseeing in Santa Monica. This location was a perfect jumping off point, which let you be close *enough* and yet feel like you’re getting away from it all.

Wonderful Experience

My wife and I stayed at the property with our dog for two nights. This property was perfect, away from the chaos of Santa Monica and Malibu, nestled in the quiet mountains of the Canyon… but only a few minutes drive to everything. We were able to enjoy all that the property had to offer.

Beautiful property, helpful host

This little cottage was perfect for my husband and two little boys. We arrived late and tired after a long day at Universal Studios to a warm and cozy place ready for our arrival. We took a quick drive down to Topanga beach to play for the day. We enjoyed the spa and the beautiful views. We brought in groceries and cooked dinner together in the little kitchen. The host was very good at communicating and we felt very taken care of. We would stay again.

Perfect in every way - even better than the pictures

The hot tub and pool area is too die for and the location is even better. Topanga seems so far away from the stress of LA and yet you are minutes from the beach and Santa Monica or Malibu. The house was very clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. We loved the quiet neighborhood in the hills and relaxing by the pool in between trips to be beach. Perfect getaway. Rachel and Gregory were perfect hosts and made sure we had everything we needed. I wish we could have stayed here longer as it was so relaxing and perfect.

These People are not ready to have VRBO guests

We recently rented this guest house for one week.We have been renting from VRBO for 15 yrs.Great experiences until now. The property was not private as advertised, but at the end of the driveway, where the children play basketball very close to our outside sitting area. The property was dirty with cob webs, children's toys, broken landscape lights around the yard and pool area. Worn rusted uncomfortable pool side furniture. The outdoor grill in front of their kitchen was filthy and the washer and dryer are in their house where we had to compete with their dirty laundry. The owner let her dogs run freely on our property and walked them on our property several times a day. They have no concept of privacy, comfort or cleanliness for their guests. She even texted us one day when we were out and asked us to let her dog into their house when we got home. These people are not ready to have VRBO guests. They don't quite get the concept of hosting people on their property.

So relaxing

Booked this cute little place for a staycation with some friends and it was perfect. Super quiet and relaxing while also not being super far from the city. The spa and pool were lovely and the star gazing we did on the deck at night was incredible. I will 100% be rebooking in the future with my family. Plus if you’re a fan of dogs, you might just be greeted by a golden retriever in the morning (but don’t worry if you’re not, Rachel was a great host and will make sure they’re out of the way of you need)

A Hidden Gem

Our stay with Rachel was exactly what my husband and I were looking for! The guest house is clean, comfy, private - and the gated backyard area was perfect for our dog. Rachel was friendly, communicative and prompt whenever we needed anything or had a question. The neighborhood is secluded and private. We felt like we were a world away from LA. Highly recommended!

Exclusive guest house in perfect location

We came with our two children to spend a few days in L.A. The guest house was well equiped, tiny but charming and the pool/jacuzzi made use feel privileged. The location was great to visit the city, hike in the canyon or go to the beach. We would go back with no hesitation!
