About this property
Private Romantic Escape, Hidden Gem w/ Hot Tub, and Waterfall
A private, romantic retreat nestled in ancient canyon boulders. Soak in outdoor hot tubs, sway in hammocks, and sleep beneath tree canopies beside a flowing waterfall. This unique, historic home was built around a boulder that forms the walls of several rooms. With stunning canyon views, and 1/2 an acre of nature all around, it’s the perfect hideaway to relax, reconnect, or explore. A great location for proposals and honeymoons. Ask about local hikes, romantic add-ons, and celebration packages!

About the host
Hosted by Casa de la Tierra
My wife and I are both musicians and landscape artists. We love creating in and experiencing whimsical spaces.
Why they chose this property
The first time we drove through Box Canyon, we knew we loved it. There is a rich history here in the canyon and just adds to its quirkiness. It doesn't feel like Los Angeles AT ALL, which we love. It's like a little getaway from the hustle of the large city, with plenty of water features and gorgeous birds to relax the mind and sooth the soul.
What makes this property unique
This property and home was love at first sight. The way the house was built around the massive boulder and the way the living room wall was a huge rock etc, it felt alive and it just spoke to us. We took our time furnishing and getting things just right because it has a deep history and we wanted to do the house justice. We wanted to make sure that everything we brought in and set up would look like it's always been here and is an integral part of the house. The outdoor area loops around the house and we spent lots of time and energy ensuring the landscaping looked original and nothing stuck out as too new looking. We've been told we did an excellent job :) Being out here is like a breath of fresh air. It somehow feels connected to an old world, but with modern comforts. It's truly an inspiring space to be in and we never plan on selling. We are madly in love with this property. You have to come see it and tell us what you think!
