This little hideaway in the hills is absolutely splendid! My son (teenage) and I stayed here on vacation for 4 days. If you are looking for a place for some zen-like R/R, close to LA, this is the place. We were about a 20 minute drive from downtown. The outdoor area is spectacular, if I had been here with adult friends, I’m not sure I would have ever left. It’s the perfect serene space with natural beauty to spare. The it is cozy and makes you feel as though you are hanging out in the Hollywood Hills during a long forgotten era, yet with all modern amenities. I caught myself watching old black and white cinema on my iPad, when I wasn’t reading my Leonard Elmore novel. Zara was brilliant and if I could give it more stars I would!!
