Canyon Crest Cottage and Garden in Topanga Canyon

THE SPACE:

Tucked away in the scenic hills of Topanga Canyon, this inviting 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom guest house provides a peaceful escape. The private patio is perfect for outdoor dining, allowing you to soak in the natural surroundings. Inside, you will find a stylishly furnished space with a fully equipped kitchen, a cozy living area, and a spacious bedroom. A modern bathroom adds to the comfort of this charming retreat. Ideal for solo travelers or couples looking to unwind and reconnect with nature.

Guests have full access to the upper guest house with exclusive privileges to all showcased areas. Parking is uncovered and restricted to one vehicle at the top of the driveway, offering a scenic hillside perch. Onsite washer and dryer are available. While we warmly welcome dogs, it`s important to mention that the property is not entirely fenced. Please limit the number of dogs to one.

Should you desire assistance in enhancing your stay, we`re happy to help with booking activities such as a yoga instructor, personal chef, in-house massage, or any other personalized services. Feel free to let us know your preferences!

There is a small lower guest house and a main house that may or may not be hosting guests. During your stay, you may come across other guests, vendors, or OAH team members on the property, especially in shared areas like the driveway.

NEIGHBORHOOD INFO:

Located in the heart of Topanga Canyon our Hillside Hideaway Guest House is about 6 mile drive to the Pacific Coast Highway. About a mile from the center of Topanga Canyon with great shops, coffee, and restaurants. Located right next to the Topanga State Park filled with hiking trails and beautiful views.

Most people choose to have a car when visiting Southern California. Please note the final stretch up this driveway to the home is steep so please travel through the canyon with ease and caution. (And totally worth it for the serenity and views it holds). This home does have an EV charger. There are an abundant amount of unique and significant attractions within two hours of this home. If you’re an explorer, we do recommend a car.

If you’re the type that wants to arrive and relax at the house on your vacation, Los Angeles has the typical available use of Uber and Lyft options as well.
