Wonderful Week in Sierra Madre

The house was an amazing home base for a week of art camp and exploring the area. It was exactly as described - clean, comfortable, and very well equipped! We loved being such a short walk to downtown Sierra Madre, and enjoyed the excellent coffee shops and restaurants. We look forward to our next stay!

Rose Bowl Weekend Stay

This house was perfect for our Rose Bowl weekend. Downtown Sierra Madre is really cute with nice places to eat. The neighborhood felt so safe we went for a run. After our run we had fresh lemon water from the organic lemon tree outside! The beds were comfortable and the linens were all very nice. It took less than 10 minutes to get to the Sierra Madre Train station, which made it super easy to get to the Rose Bowl parade without having to take our rental car. The Rose Bowl Floatfest was also very close by. They have a nice patio that we sat in to get some sun and naps in between activities. Overall a great stay!

Tour of LA/visit with family with my adult kids

Having lived in LA previously- I was familiar with the area and I was so pleased to find a quiet sanctuary in Sierra Madre after long days on the go. The foothills are beautiful and special. The house was comfortable, clean, and relaxing. The kitchen was well appointed with everything you could possibly need for meals or snacks. The beds were very comfortable. The outside patio areas were wonderful as the hot days cooled when the sun went down. Alan was quick to respond to questions and I cannot recommend this little place enough! Excellent stay and really looking forward to our next stay in Sierra Madre! 10 stars!!! Thanks Alan! - KC

Liked: Cleanliness, location
Disliked: Check-in

Nice, but left us disappointed.

Communication with our host was very pleasant until the morning after we arrived. Apparently there is an early checkin charge which we never saw. We assumed that since the place was already cleaned and that the door code worked when we drove in from LAX mid-morning, that we were good to go. However, the host sent a message stating that he noticed we checked in early and that we owed an additional $60. The money was not the issue. The issue was that it just made our host seem cheap and that his only reason for being nice was to make as much money as possible from each guest. There's no way that us checking in a few hours early cost him $60. In any case, it made all his nice words seem cheap and insincere. We will not stay there again.

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
My name is Alan and I’m a proud father of two growing boys. We’ve spent many hours cleaning and building this house into a home we love. As a family we love to travel and spend our days at the beach. I love to cook and eat good food. Our experience through travel allows us to draw from many different places and we’ve tried to bring our favorite items to share and mimic what we liked.

Why they chose this property

The bungalow in Sierra Madre is such a special place for so many reasons. The city itself is truly a best kept secret. It has the feel and charm of an old town, with easy access and walkability . The home is at the foothills of the San Gabriel mountains yet has mature trees throughout.

What makes this property unique

Located in the charming city of Sierra Madre, a peaceful respite thoughtfully curated for those looking for a quiet retreat from the lights and noise of the city. A five minute walk brings you to the Village where you can grab a bite to eat or a cup of coffee. Bring your mountain bike and hiking boots and hit the trails. For those seeking a cultural experience, the Huntington library and LA Arboretum are a quick ride down the road. There’s a lot to do in very close proximity.
