Our family of two parents and two girls aged 12 and 10 had a wonderful stay at this home. We even extended our stay because it was so nice to be there.
We all loved visiting the animals in the "farm" next door. One of the best things about this home is that it felt so private. We loved that we could be in the house or garden or hot tub and feel as though we were in our own space and not visible to others. The space made it so easy to enjoy the outdoors, there were so many doors into and out of the house and we enjoyed leaving doors ajar while we were sleeping so that fresh air flowed through the house (there are screens on all of the doors). Our girls spent happy hours playing on the hammock and swing in the garden. Though the house is close to Topanga Canyon Blvd and road noises are present, the space still feels peaceful.
One last thing I'll mention is that the home smelled wonderfully fresh, and lacked any odor of staleness or damp. And an added bonus for me was the laundry was all washed with a scent-free eco detergent (this isn't an issue for all, but I dislike sleeping in scented bedding or drying off with a perfumed towel).
Our family was sad to say good bye to this home and we are all hoping that we'll get to stay there again on another trip to Topanga.
