Stayed here to visit with family nearby in November and it was lovely! Very clean and well-kept. Lots of thoughtful touches like a space heater, shower that converts to a steam sauna, (sometimes when cool enough) salt water pool, and a hot tub that could be heated as needed. The owners were very responsive and available during our stay.
Cute, quiet neighborhood in the hills with some hiking trails in walking distance. Feels like being in Topanga Canyon. Love the spacious deck with a great view of the valley.
The king bed is comfy for a rental (I always want a firmer mattress, but that's me!) Lots of closet space and drawers to put clothes and items in so you don't have to rummage around in a suitcase to find things.
It's definitely on the smaller side, and the kitchen layout is a little funky, which isn't shown in the photos. It's challenging for more than 1 person to be working in the kitchen at a time. There's a breakfast nook with a table and 4 chairs opposite the fridge, and the wall of the bathroom is opposite the counter making the space tight.
Closest parking is on a steep, unpaved, somewhat slippery road. Our car doesn't have all-wheel drive and it spun out a few times trying to back out, which was a little stressy until we got the hang of it. We also had a couple of older folks come to visit and walking down the road to get to our place was a little dicey for them. If the road were paved, it would make things easier!
One very nice addition would be dimmer switches on the lights in the living room and kitchen (or lamps like the ones in the bedroom) for a cozier vibe at night.
Overall a great place to stay in the valley! We'll definitely be back.
