About the host
Hosted by Kat
I was born in Seattle, grew up in Scotland, and moved back to the U.S. over a decade ago. My husband Matthew and I love sharing the beauty of Topanga with others, creating a space where guests can relax, explore, and feel at home. In our free time, we enjoy dinners together, beach days, road trips with our dachshund Cato, and exploring new places. I’m passionate about coffee, cooking, and history - and I look forward to welcoming you to our little corner of California.
What makes this property unique
The Topanga Cottage is a serene canyon hideaway with sweeping mountain-to-ocean views. Designed in a neutral, boho style with rustic touches and modern comforts, it blends indoor ease with the beauty of its natural surroundings. Just minutes from Malibu’s beaches and LA’s energy, it offers guests the rare chance to feel both tucked away and perfectly connected.
