The Creekside Trailer is your perfect escape. This is a truly "Topangan" guest house that uses hippie inspired creativity that made the 1960’s the magical era that they were.
Part 1950's Pontiac vintage trailer, part "tree house". We’re situated on a seasonal creek making this home a one of a kind getaway experience. Also to note, since this is a converted 1950's trailer, the kitchen and sleeping cabin have ceilings that are a bit shorter in height for people over 6' tall. But fear not, the living room and bathroom have ceilings that people of all heights can enjoy.
The magical space is a climate controlled tiny home which includes a great room with a twin sized day bed that boasts floor to ceiling windows overlooking the seasonal creek , a compact full functioning kitchen with a built in dining area, a cozy sleeping cabin with a full size memory foam bed, and finally a full sized bathroom with plenty of hot water for a shower/tub and a bidet toilet.
Included are two private outdoor spaces for your enjoyment; a covered patio with a love seat with calming sounds of a fountain and a deck off of the great room with a bistro table and lounger perfect for open air dining above and alongside the creek. Sorry, we do not offer a TV so unplug from urban life and enjoy a glass of wine and an al fresco dinner listening to vintage records from local Topanga artists (or your own music) on the Bluetooth enabled turntable. We also have a guitar (that we tune occasionally) that is your to play plus many classic wood board games to enjoy while hearing the owls, frogs and other critters.
The Creekside Trailer is centrally located to the heart of Topanga with dining local favorites like The Inn of the Seventh Ray and Canyon Bistro just a quick walk away.
We’re also steps away from the Topanga State Park trailheads making your getaway activities such as hiking or mountain biking so much easier since you can leave your car parked next to the house and enjoy all that Topanga Canyon has to offer.
Finally to note, While Topanga Canyon Blvd is completely open, there are fire related road repairs happening with single lane traffic control on both directions which at times may cause some delays.

About the host
Hosted by Lisa
I've been blessed to live here in Topanga Canyon. I'm hoping to share the magic that this canyon has to offer with you.
Why they chose this property
Our property is close enough to the city to make it easy for you to get to but far away enough that you'd never know you're in Los Angeles. We love always seeing nature with the ancient oaks around us to hearing the frogs and owls at night.
What makes this property unique
The Creekside Trailer is truly a unique space that epitomizes the "Topanga Hippie" experience but with all the comforts of home. From the converted 1953 Pontiac Chief trailer with the small full functioning kitchen and sleeping cabin to the living room with the floor to ceiling windows, we try to make your stay one that will be fondly remembered.
