My wife and I were in Topanga Canyon for the week, for a family wedding and our stay at this property greatly enhanced that experience. The cottage was very charming, cozy and nicely furnished & decorated. It had everything we needed, including a large kitchen, comfortable master bedroom & 2 full bathrooms. Was quiet and serene, with a beautiful backyard. Several tasty restaurants were nearby. It was the perfect place for us. Our host was very helpful and accommodating. We plan to return!

Rest & Recovery
Kirsten’s home was the perfect location for my mom & I to relax and recover as she healed from a major surgery. The property is very special: Kirsten has created such a sense of home, costal living, and serenity through design. We slept and rested comfortably; bathrooms & kitchen were well stocked. Our favorite part was of course the garden and her two outdoor cats Vixen & Willis; they greeted us for morning coffee and evening wine on the patio which was such a joy. The location was very convenient, it's less than 5 min drive to groceries etc. Finally, Kirsten's communication and accommodation to our ever changing situation was above and beyond. Thank you, Kirsten, for sharing your beautiful home with us!

Just divine!
We absolutely loved our stay at this charming and cozy cottage. The garden is the jewel in the crown — beautiful, private, sunny, lush! A great spot to soak in the hot tub or enjoy a glass of wine before dinner. The interior is lovely, comfortable, and spotless. The host was very responsive and personable. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Amazing host & Excellent home
Kerstan is the BEST host we’ve ever had! We have stayed at many VBRO properties & this was a great find. Super clean, greatly stocked kitchen, TV with streaming of all options one could want. I’m a big walker & neighborhood is very safe with lots of challenging hills. Host was very responsive to all request.

So good!
The cottage was a perfect spot for my niece & I. It is exactly as deacribed, communication with owner was great & the outside area is so beautiful/relaxing.
We choose the house for the close location to the beach & going to get our reiki treatments at the Valley Salt cave.
We definitely will reserve again!!

We would stay here again!
The photos are accurate, but the real cottage is even nicer!
The rooms are large and bright and the kitchen had all the pots and pans and utensils for anyone who likes to cook. With the surrounding hills and trees, the neighborhood is incredibly quiet, but convenient to the many restaurants and stores and businesses on Ventura Blvd and the Valley.
Kirsten was very communicative and helpful and friendly, and she answered all our questions.
My wife and I highly recommend this property for your getaway to the Los Angeles area!

Ideal Retreat in Woodland Hills
We travel to the valley about 3 times each year to visit our daughter and have stayed in a wide variety of properties - hotels, condos, full rental homes, and ADU's. This property is easily our favorite of the bunch and we could not have been happier in our choice. Close to shopping and an ideal launchpoint for any LA adventure, Kirsten's home is a spacious, bright and calming spot, situated in a charming and convenient neighborhood, just off Topanga Canyon Blvd. The home is situated on a beautiful lot with attractive gardens and outdoor seating to chill and unwind - a very meditative environment. The interior is similarly inviting - tasteful decor, big screen tv, a very comfy master suite, walk-in shower, soaking tub, and a generous and fully appointed kitchen - it truly has it all. The easy-going flow of the home, combined with the abundant natural light made for a very relaxing vibe - an excellent retreat for the three of us. The icing on the cake was our gracious host, who communicated efficiently from the start and made everything as smooth as silk. We were pleased that we could meet face to face and express our appreciation for this very stylish and serene home. Thanks, Kirsten - we will return!

Charming and Comfortable
It was lovely and made for excellent stay while working in the area long hours. When not in meeting sitting at kitchen table and see the lovely back yard and having lunch there made traveling so nice.
