Serenity. Calm. Coziness. Cute animals. What more could you ask for? Jennifer is an excellent hostess -- a lot of nice personal touches around the cabin-- fresh eggs from her chickens, fresh goats milk, ice cream and beer in the fridge, a wonderful book about Topanga, pretty nature-themed tiles in the shower, pretty sitting area outside with two chaise lounges overlooking the creek. Not a place for more than two people, I would imagine -- the cabin is small and cozy downstairs, with a huge upstairs attic bedroom with a slanted ceiling and a window to the creek. I slept downstairs on the futon and waking up with morning light streaming in was lovely. My friend who had the bedroom upstairs reported that the bed is very comfortable. Lots of animals around -- both of her very sweet dogs greeted us, one who came to the door of the cabin and came in to see us and another who greeted us as we got in our car one morning. Native birds along the creek, singing all day long. California tree frogs, who are so cute and tiny, hopping around the chaise lounges outside. And a whole farmyard of goats, chickens, ducks, and piglets to hang out with. Jennifer was kind enough to recommend various local spots and businesses and the ones that we were able to check out were wonderful!
This is a great place for a peaceful and tranquil getaway. If you are looking for an high energy, party spot, this is the not the place. But if you want a quiet place to relax and restore your spirit in a calming environment, this is the place!
