Kerstan is the BEST host we’ve ever had! We have stayed at many VBRO properties & this was a great find. Super clean, greatly stocked kitchen, TV with streaming of all options one could want. I’m a big walker & neighborhood is very safe with lots of challenging hills. Host was very responsive to all request.
The cottage was a perfect spot for my niece & I. It is exactly as deacribed, communication with owner was great & the outside area is so beautiful/relaxing.
We choose the house for the close location to the beach & going to get our reiki treatments at the Valley Salt cave.
We definitely will reserve again!!
Charming house with wonderful artifacts and outdoor paradise
Extremely impressed. We could have just stayed on the property all day and been happy. Highly recommend. Kirsten was available and gracious in every way.
It was lovely and made for excellent stay while working in the area long hours. When not in meeting sitting at kitchen table and see the lovely back yard and having lunch there made traveling so nice.
The photos are accurate, but the real cottage is even nicer!
The rooms are large and bright and the kitchen had all the pots and pans and utensils for anyone who likes to cook. With the surrounding hills and trees, the neighborhood is incredibly quiet, but convenient to the many restaurants and stores and businesses on Ventura Blvd and the Valley.
Kirsten was very communicative and helpful and friendly, and she answered all our questions.
My wife and I highly recommend this property for your getaway to the Los Angeles area!

We travel to the valley about 3 times each year to visit our daughter and have stayed in a wide variety of properties - hotels, condos, full rental homes, and ADU's. This property is easily our favorite of the bunch and we could not have been happier in our choice. Close to shopping and an ideal launchpoint for any LA adventure, Kirsten's home is a spacious, bright and calming spot, situated in a charming and convenient neighborhood, just off Topanga Canyon Blvd. The home is situated on a beautiful lot with attractive gardens and outdoor seating to chill and unwind - a very meditative environment. The interior is similarly inviting - tasteful decor, big screen tv, a very comfy master suite, walk-in shower, soaking tub, and a generous and fully appointed kitchen - it truly has it all. The easy-going flow of the home, combined with the abundant natural light made for a very relaxing vibe - an excellent retreat for the three of us. The icing on the cake was our gracious host, who communicated efficiently from the start and made everything as smooth as silk. We were pleased that we could meet face to face and express our appreciation for this very stylish and serene home. Thanks, Kirsten - we will return!

About the host
Hosted by Kirsten
I grew up in So Cal and have adult children, so I regularly enjoy travelling myself and enjoy sharing my space with others who need a peaceful place to land. I split my time between the studio apartment in the back, and my family's beach house, so if you need ANYTHING during your stay, I am available.
Why they chose this property
I love my home in Woodland Hills because it is Topanga-adjacent: close to hiking trails and the beach AND freeway close, in a walkable neighborhood, with tons of dining and shopping opportunities nearby. I am a Realtor who specializes in the surrounding area. So for me, this home checked all of the boxes!
What makes this property unique
We have two formally ferral kitties, Willis (fluffy) and Vixen (short hair) who have become the neighborhood Moussers and they like to hang around and get rubs. If you see their bowls on the back steps, feel free to give them a small amount of dry food (you'll see the bag under the sink.) If you don't want to be bothered, don't worry, they are excellent hunters and can fend for themselves! I also am an avid gardener. I have spent 10 years fine tuning the garden which is full of fruit trees and succulents, flowers and a veggie garden for fresh picked produce to cook with. If you'd like any succulent cuttings, feel free to ask!
