I attended a wedding in Topanga Canyon and stayed at Thaddeus' place for 2 nights. The place was large, clean, cutely decorated and had all the amenities one could need. Thaddeus was extremely hospitable and even called to make sure I was able to find the place since there had been a road closure in the canyon due to heavy rains. I had no trouble finding the place and parking thanks to Thad's clear instructions. I would definitely recommend staying at Thad's place!
