Dorothianne’s place is clean, thoughtfully decorated in a contemporary cozy in style, and has beautiful views over the canyon. It was perfect for my weekend getting away from it all: even without a car, I was able to walk to restaurants and grocery stores, and to get onto the beautiful Backbone trail. There is some traffic noise, but I believe this would be true of any property in Topanga. The kitchen is well stocked with good quality cooking utensils and Lisa is a helpful and communicative host. I hope to return one day.
