Peaceful rest in a wonderful place
Nice small cottage in a nearby canyon. My wife and I came to visit friends and attend the Tournament of Roses Parade. Place was clean and welcoming. The host was great. The hike up the stairs and across a bridge was unexpected. We ended up leaving our big suitcase in the trunk of the car. Hope to stay again.

Clean and Relaxing Getaway
We really enjoyed our stay here. The cabin is small but comfortable and clean. There were nice touches throughout from soft blankets to fresh flowers and sugar for coffee/tea-- you can tell the host cares about providing you a comfortable stay. It's not a 5-star hotel, but it's a unique experience. One thing to note is that it is right next to a main road (this didn't bother us and of course is not the host's fault but you should be ok with this. The back house is tucked away.) I would also recommend that you bring mosquito spray or have a citronella candle (as we did) if you plan on using the beautiful outdoor space.

Coming to this place nestled in the trees was just what we were looking for. You feel like you're in the woods even though you are right on hwy 27. There is a steep flight of stairs to get to this adorable cottage that might be a challenge for some. Perfect central location for the Getty Villa, hiking, dining, shopping and the beach.

Fantastic little cottage tucked away in the outer LA area. Quaint and inviting with proximity to all things you’d want to visit. Hosts go out of their way to make everything an enjoyable stay.
