My family and I could not have been happier with our stay at the secret cottage. The drive up started our adventure, and every day we stayed in the beautiful Topanga countryside was memorable. We were greeted by Lynn's friendly dogs- and were immediately impressed with the nature that surrounded us on all sides. The cottage itself was lovely, clean and very well equipped. My kids and I however, could not wait to go exploring and investigate everything from the fruit trees to the the chicken coop. Lynn did a wonderful job making all of us feel very welcome. The fresh eggs were a special treat my whole family loved. We stayed for a week, and did many things in and around LA during our vacation. Honestly, every evening, I really just looked forward to returning to the cottage to relax. The sun would still be shining on the hill sides even when the coast was nothing but clouds. Amazing. The bed was very comfortable, but for me, the best part was just waking up every morning in such a beautiful place. I would recommend to any one I know, the experience of staying at Lynn's secret cottage. The accommodations made our whole trip to CA unforgettable. I wish I was back there, either hiking or sitting at the patio table right now.
