Overall, I had a nice stay at the Quaint Cabin. I was looking to get out of the city, and it’s a good setting to do that. Great that it’s dog friendly (but dogs cannot be left unattended). La Chingona and Topanga Living Cafe are dog friendly too.
Things to keep in mind: (1) arrive during the day if you can; the directions from the street to the cabin are confusing, (2) it’s a very bumpy dirt road. My little hatchback made it, but I was nervous and I’m not surprised others couldn’t, (3) the bed and couch are super soft; not a problem for me but I know it is for some people, and (4) the bathroom is tiny, which is tricky since it’s not connected and you definitely couldn’t fit a suitcase.
A lot of reviews mention mice/bugs/etc but I didn’t see any. It was cold (about 38 degrees at night), but I brought an extra comforter and was comfortable. I didn’t use the space heaters, but they’re available.
Only complaint was that the neighbor’s rooster started crowing at 4:30am and woke me up.
