This was such a wonderful, beautiful retreat to stay at in the canyon. I had a wonderful week with my son that I will always remember.Geraldine couldn’t have been a better host!I felt like I had my own little Spanish Hacienda in the most beautiful peaceful place. We went hiking and were able to walk to Cornell winery to have breakfast. It really was a very special place that I will always remember.

The standout feature was definitely the cottage itself—the space was amazing. It felt open, comfortable, and gave us plenty of room to relax without ever feeling cramped.The property had a peaceful, tucked-away vibe, which made it a great place to unwind after busy days out. It worked especially well for a family stay, with enough space for everyone to spread out and feel at home. And the hostess is amazing as well and is willing to help accommodate you with any help you might need. Overall, we had a great experience and would recommend this spot to anyone looking for a quiet, spacious getaway in the area.

About the host

Hosted by Geraldine Gilliland

Host profile image
I'm an immigrant from Ireland who has enjoyed a fulfilling journey in life. After retiring from owning 6 successful restaurants in California, I've dedicated my time to my true passion: dog rescue. I offer unique living spaces where guests can relax and feel at home. Whether it's the stunning beaches of Malibu, or the vibrant culture in Mexico, I provide amazing retreats to unwind & relax. Plus you might even meet some of my furry friends.

Why they chose this property

Cornell Canyon in Agoura Hills is truly a hidden gem, offering a peaceful and scenic escape from the hustle and bustle. The neighborhood is nestled among lush greenery and towering trees, providing a serene backdrop for outdoor exploration. I especially enjoy taking leisurely walks through the nearby hiking trails, where you can immerse yourself in nature and enjoy breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains. The area also offers a variety of charming restaurant and Winery within walking distance, making it easy to relax and unwind after a day of adventure. It’s the perfect place to reconnect with nature while enjoying the comfort and convenience of a welcoming community.

What makes this property unique

The cottage sits on 5 peaceful acres shared with a few other unique Airbnb stays and long-term residents. Your cottage and patio are private.

We occasionally have well-behaved rescue dogs at the main house. They may bark if visitors approach unexpectedly, so please avoid walking up to the main house unless arranged in advance.

Our rescue horses and burro live in the meadow below. You’re welcome to enjoy watching them from the fence line or while walking by, please do not enter their enclosure unless invited.

Nature is part of the charm here. You may see peacocks, hummingbirds, deer, hawks, owls, woodpeckers, and other wildlife around the property. Their presence adds to the peaceful atmosphere, but please do not feed wildlife, and keep doors closed to prevent curious visitors from wandering in.
