Malibou Lake is a beautiful area and the entrance to Malibu Creek State Park is within close walking distance. The cottage is conveniently located to Malibu and LA also. The kitchen had the necessary pots and pans we needed to make a few meals at home. The beds are comfortable and the eclectic light fixtures are gorgeous. I honestly can’t think of anything I would change. And Isabelle is a helpful host without being intrusive at all.
