About this property

The Best of Topanga: Clean! Close to Beach, Town, & Hiking!

This clean, modern detached guest house is the perfect place to either retreat for a weekend or use as a home base to explore the canyon, beaches, and trails. Our gated property is in the desirable PO Tract & directly across the street from over 10,000 acres of wild parkland. Spend the day hiking to the waterfalls, then shop in funky Topanga village, then come home and relax by the fire pit. Or if you're coming to town for a wedding, retreat, or function--let us know. We can help by picking you up after an event! (Ubers can be challenging late at night in the canyon.)

We love Topanga and have lived here for over 20 years. Our property is unique as you can walk to town, easy access to trails, but it is also quite private. We do live on the poroperty but are 50 yards away— you wont hear us, we wont hear you. The only common area is the driveway.

We are an active family, so we have plenty of surfboards, SUP, bikes, boogie boards, and more available for a small fee. We are also happy to offer advice on how to best enjoy your stay.

We've lived in Topanga for over 20 years. We've raised two kids, three dogs, and a few cats on this quiet property and couldn't be happier to share it with you!

Topanga offers everything--hiking, surfing, relaxing--our property is stunning yet close to all of the major locations.

Why they chose this property

Our place is uniquely located right across the street from the Topanga State Park, seconds from town, and very close to Topanga Canyon Boulevard. Driving in our neighborhood is about as easy as it gets in Topanga--no one lane roads, no dirt roads, etc.
Our place is fully fenced and gated so it is safe. Though we have dogs, they do not have access to your area, unless of course, you'd like them to visit. Just let us know.
