We had an incredible stay at the Topanga Cottage! It was SO spacious and I loved the eclectic design. I did not meet Walter, but Sylvia was a delight! She was so fun to talk to and get to know! She's a great host and gave us good recommendations for the area. Silvia's dog Pablo was also one of our favorites hosts too! He was a little shy around my bf at first, but once he got to know us, he became a frequent visitor. We loved the company! I highly recommend that you stay here.

Silvia recommended we walk from the house to the Red Rock Trail. It was a great recommendation because it's SO close and great to not have to drive. We did it in the evening and it was a lovely hike with almost no other people around.

Each day we swam in the ocean and went on a hike. It was really a perfect getaway! Malibu was beautiful! But the highlight was hiking in Topanga State Park, it's also very close, a 5 minute drive....it's not to be missed!
