Isabelle's location is PERFECT! I couldn't have pictured a more tranquil setting for my holiday. It was a quiet neighborhood and everyone I ran into was friendly. Isabelle was a terrific host, her communication left me feeling at ease with traveling to a new location. There are a few local establishments (restaurants/shops) while only a short distance from other larger areas where there is more variety. The location is easily accessible to many places within the LA area. What's best about it is the lack of traffic, hiking trails, and the serenity of the location. I went with the expectation of having a relaxing and peaceful stay - and that's exactly what I got.
