I live in LA and spontaneously decided to get out of town for a night - this cabin was just the thing. The built-in bed under the skylights is gorgeous but the best place to hang out is on the little porch, where you can see the changing light on the mountains as the sun goes down behind you. I arrived late afternoon after a big hike and appreciated the good shower and shady porch for dinner outside (Topanga general store is great for groceries). As others have said, it's important to write or print the directions since it's a bit twisty and you won't have reception. Gordon wasn't there but I saw the cabin right away, got in easily & found the wifi, and neighbors were friendly. It was pretty warm inside when I arrived but cooled down plenty for sleeping so I never needed the air conditioner. Yes there are a few bugs, but you're in the woods! Appreciated the french press for morning and the cozy, DIY vibe overall. Thanks Gordon!
