We had an excellent stay at Gordon's cabin in Topanga. It was an easy drive from L.A. and felt so remote. The cabin is even better than pictured, it's very thoughtfully designed and stocked. The heater wasn't needed most the night but it worked very well when we tried it. There were plenty of outlets, the internet worked well and the place had the cookware & utensils needed for us to make a simple dinner. Gordon was very friendly and available to show us around the place and tell us about nearby hikes & attractions. Would love to stay here again!
