The location is great--it is on a secluded little road right off of Malibu Canyon road. The cottage itself was clean and had great AC. There are two cottages on the property, so you will have to share a driveway and might have close neighbors during your stay. A car is an absolute must, because there is no way to walk down to the coast. Two of the bedrooms within the cottage have a 12" step down just to get into the rooms. This wasn't a huge pain, but it could be if you had someone elderly or in a wheelchair in your party. The bathrooms were clean and spacious.
