Excellent accommodations and great location! Very private.
Thanks Ilda and Mike for providing such a wonderful cottage and property! The check in process was easy and my stay was beyond comfortable. The pool area was perfect and I appreciated having privacy during my stay. The hosts provided everything necessary for me and my guest to feel comfortable and welcome. One of my favorite places that I’ve stayed in the area. Would definitely stay again and recommend to friends who may be staying in the LA area .

Quiet and peaceful
The cottage itself was clean, quiet, and comfortable. It’s in a very nice neighborhood with ample parking. They did offer us the carport, but we preferred the street. We had a brief connection issue with the Wi-Fi when we first arrived that the owner responded to immediately and corrected. The Wi-Fi worked fine after that for the 5 nights we stayed. For the cottage we would stay there again. However, the grounds have not been kept well and needs attending. So we did not use the outdoors. If there was ever a lawn, it has been overtaken by exposed dirt, weeds and foxtails. They do keep the main area mowed, but the tall dried weeds and foxtails have overtaken the shrubs and flowers. There were 2-4” tall weeds and foxtails growing between the bricks on the pathway. With the California drought, I can understand not keeping up a lawn, but the weeds and foxtails really need to be attended to. With that said, we still enjoyed our stay and would recommend it. They just need give the grounds some TLC to make it a five star.

Wonderful!
This was our second stay at Ilda and Mike’s beautiful cottage. It really is a private retreat surrounded by fruit trees with a beautiful pool and game room. Walking distance to West Kenneth Village’s French bakery, coffee shop, great taco place and Frozen yogurt. The house itself is clean, very comfortable and has everything you need, plus more! This year we discovered that even when it’s 96 degrees here the porch is shaded throughout the day and there is a lovely breeze off the mountain behind us. We really enjoyed all the amenities and Ilda and Mike are wonderful hosts.

DONT RENT FROM THIS ABUSIVE LADY!!!!!!
Where do I began? You may be wondering why I have four stars by reading the title. Well everything started fine the house was clean ida was there at check in but that’s not what destroyed my trip. I will NEVER RENT FROM THIS CRAZY LADY AGAIN. So prior to my check-in not booking I asked Ida could I invite my fiancée’s daughter son and 2 grandchildren which are 2 and 8 years old. She says yes now being an adult I will admit she may have thought I meant to visit but I was asking can they join us here during our stay. The reason being it was my fiancées 50th birthday we live in Michigan and the kids live in Cali he has never met his 2 year old granddaughter so it was a surprise. After she said it was at at 4pm we left and didn’t come back until 830 pm which is when the kids pulled up as well we all were exhausted so we went to sleep. The next morning I receive a message from Ida with these options I can leave at noon and receive a refund for the three remaining days I have left or the kids would have to leave by noon and will not be allowed to come back to stay or visit daytime or night if I choose to stay. Per house rules 6 people not allowed ok I completely understand small space and house rules but I asked before they came we were not loud or anything seeming that you are a host you could have came to me and said u misunderstood what I was asking. So I took the refund option and left the kids stay an hour away so we went with them that’s the only reason they wanted to stay is because of the drive. When check out time came Ida and Mike met up with me the house was clean no issues my fiancée asked is there a reason we had to leave this is when all hell broke loose. IDA ABRUPTLY ANSWERS I ALREADY TOLD YOU WHY!!!!!! I said wow you don’t have to be rude she THE. STARTS SCREAMING YES SCREAMING I DONT HAVE TO DEAL WITH THIS I BEEN NICE TO “YOU PEOPLE” her husband mike tells her to calm down why is she screaming she continues no one is yelling but her. I told my fiancée to go to the car. She is still going nuts turning red and everything THEN STORMS AWAY FROM US AND YELLS IM NOT REFUNDING YOU NOTHING THEN YELLS AT ME AND SAYS “SHUTUP WHILE I GIVE YOUR REFUND JUST SHUTUP” I still remained calm her husband kept apologizing to me and telling her to stop she wouldn’t hear it. Then she comes back towards me real confrontational and “YELLS TAKE YOUR SIX PEOPLE AND GO GET OFF MY PROPERTY “ Mike again apologizes to me and says you will get your refund.

It’s a great stepping off place for all things LA and a perfect refuge to which to return at night.

Oasis in Burbank
The property is in a very nice neighborhood. Interesting to walk or drive. Very beautiful homes. It is close to a beautiful park for walking and relaxing. It is close to downtown Burbank where are a very good and diverse selection of restaurants. Burbank is centrally located for easy access to Hollywood, Glendale, Passadena, Griffith park with all of its activities, Universal Amusement park, and many of the major studios. The property was beautiful. Very spacious. Very secluded and quiet. Lots of separate areas to congregate on the property. In the game room, around the pool, on the porch or in the lodging unit/small home in the back. I had some family and friends over during my stay and we used all of them. The pool is large. We used it once. It is not heated so is dependent on the weather. The unit is brand new, updated, and charming. Very nice inside. Lots of windows to let the CA sun shine in. It was nice to have a washer and dryer. Shower was great. The bed was great for sleeping. It is great for two people. Four people would be possible but tight. Would work with children. It is a great environment for children. Spacious, lots to explore. Game room was very useful with pool table, a piano and other activities. Of course, the swimming pool is a hit as well. I had my grandchildren over several times during my stay. The lodging unit is at the back of the property, far away from the main home which provides complete privacy. The grounds are full of flowers and fruit trees which makes it very beautiful.. Ilda and Mike were very warm hosts. Very inviting and accommodating. Available and responsive when needed. I truly enjoyed my stay, I plan to revisit as my travels bring me back to the Burbank area.

Beautiful Glendale
This property is such an oasis! Ilda and Mike are fabulous hosts and we love staying here. The location is quiet, peaceful and restorative. We had to do some remote work while we were on vacation and the WiFi is strong and dependable. The pool was such a treat on the very hot days and we took advantage of the pool house as a place to cool off and eat dinner. If you are looking for a spacious and private getaway, this is it. Glendale and Burbank have ample outside dining options and the area is doing really well with COVID-19 precautions. This is our second stay at the property and we will be returning later in the year. We can't recommend it highly enough!

We had a great stay! Ilda and Mike were great hosts and their guest house is a perfect place to stay in North LA! My son lives in Sherman Oaks and this was a great base for our visit. We visited the Getty Villa, Malibu, Pasadena, Downtown LA, and Griffith Park from our home base. In the afternoons, we came home and enjoyed a quick dip in the pool! Highly recommend. Also, fresh eggs from the chickens on the property. Don't worry the girls are very quiet. :)

Beautiful home to work and relax
My husband and I loved everything about our two week stay here in North Glendale, just 3 blocks from Brand Park and a 7-minute walk to charming Kenneth Village for coffee, a bakery and Hawaiian shave ice. The guest house was quiet and immaculate, with a well-equipped kitchen and super-comfortable queen bed. My husband and I took advantage of the super-fast wifi to work, one in the guest house and one in the pool house, with frequent breaks for a game of pool or a snack on the porch. Mike and Ilda are great hosts. Ilda brought us fresh eggs and baked us an Easter bread for Easter. They gave us complete privacy but were immediately available to give advice and answer questions. We love the neighborhood, which is shaded and quiet with views of the mountains. The yard has palm trees, lemon trees, and orange trees. We wish we could have stayed a month!

Fantastic place to stay
This is, without exception, the best vacation-rental property I have ever stayed in. I was in the area for 5 weeks on a business trip, in the middle of the pandemic, and chose the property based on the location and the ease of quarantining. Ilda and Mike are wonderful hosts - very friendly and laid back, but also extremely respectful of my privacy. The property was perfect, and had everything I needed for an extended stay, including a very well appointed kitchen. The gardens are lovely, and I enjoyed getting to know Bachik (the little yorkie) and the chickens, and picking oranges and lemons from the trees. I also appreciated the fresh eggs. The neighborhood is great for walking, and Brant Park is just a couple of blocks away. I hope to return!
