Barbara's "Foothill Retreat" is located in a quiet, older neighborhood in Pasadena. If possible, arrive before sunset so you can more easily navigate the rustic area that isn't particularly well lit. Also note, it is accurate to say that there's wildlife in the area. While driving around trying to find the address, I encountered a very large coyote strolling the streets less than 100 ft away from my car. Since I was traveling with my 2 small dogs, I heeded the advice to always take my dogs out on a leash. The accommodations are basic yet comfortable. For breakfast, Barbara kindly supplied a mini banana bread & fruit, in addition to the Keurig coffee maker & K-cups in the kitchenette area.
