Totally magical. There is so much detail everywhere you look, so many nooks and crannies, and yet nothing feels overdone/thrown together - it's clearly been a labour of love. Topanga Canyon itself was also really cool - great for hiking and exploring. You feel worlds away from the bustle of LA.

Darrell was a great host, you couldn't ask for better. We were only there for a couple of nights, but it was surely the highlight of our trip around Southern California.
