I was lucky enough to stay at Isabelle's for two months in the fall. There's a really cute garden in back with a nice swinging chair and it was just really nice to be able to relax in the mornings outside there with a view of the canyon. A great way to be both in LA but secluded in more nature. 10 minutes to the beach down topanga canyon was great too, 20 mins to the malibu country mart. Isabelle was responsive to my needs, a great presence and was kind enough to do a load of laundry once a week because I was there long term. Inside is clean, well furnished with a well stocked kitchen if you want to cook. Would totally go back!
