Very private with gorgeous canyon views and absolutely no traffic noise! The space We call our guesthouse the "Secret Cottage" because you almost can't believe you can find this much tranquility in Los Angeles County. A simple, rustic kind of elegance prevails in this unique hideaway, accessible by a narrow, bumpy road the likes of which are rarely seen in the first world. Only a mile and a half from the main road, you'll feel like you've gone back in time as you pass horses, goats and sheep along the way. The house has 1 large, well appointed BR with a new mattress and bamboo floors. Comfortable bath with antique vanity connects to both bedroom and living room. Spacious living room has a comfortable sofa bed, and an inflatable mattress is also available. Three sets of French doors open to a lovely deck. A full "foodie" kitchen comes with everything you'll need to cook gourmet meals, usually including honey, eggs and citrus from our ranch when available! Kitchen doors open to a stone patio with a Moroccan tile table. There's a large unheated pool shared with the main house, and breathtaking views in every direction. Roadrunners, coyotes, hawks and hummingbirds share this paradise, and you can eat meals outside most of the year. From the patio, you can even see a distant glimpse of ocean on a (very) clear day. Great for lovers, writers, naturalists, healers, mountain bikers, adventurers, photographers and anyone who loves LA best from a slight distance! Guest access The cottage is all yours! The entire property is 12 acres and you are welcome to wander around. Large pool and hot tub are shared with main house only. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub - Outdoor pool ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Electric car charging station on site - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster - Water dispenser ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Entertainment - Books - TV ### Outdoor areas - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Housekeeping (on request) - Iron/ironing board ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Bulk dispensers for toiletries - Composting - Comprehensive food waste policy - Comprehensive recycling policy - Double-glazed windows - Eco-friendly cleaning products used - Eco-friendly toiletries - Electric car charging station - Garden - Grey water recycling system - Housekeeping (on request) - Reusable coffee/tea filters - Solar energy - Water dispenser usage encouraged - Water-efficient showers - Water-efficient toilets ## Similar properties ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/30000000/29640000/29633300/29633210/ff80e1fe.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Little Topanga house with enormous views of Santa Monica Mountains Topanga Oaks - Kitchen - Pet-friendly - Free WiFi - Air conditioning 9.4 Exceptional 55 reviews CA $189 CA $372 total includes taxes & fees Oct 28 - Oct 29 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-28&endDate=2025-10-29&selected=29633210&PinnedHotelID=29633210&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/31000000/30330000/30323800/30323730/216ed638.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Relaxing Topanga getaway: remodeled kitchen/bath, pool, Jacuzzi, close to beach!
