The beachside setting of Calabasas is ready to explore
The beaches and riverfront create a pretty picture of Calabasas. This welcoming city allures visitors with its shopping and restaurants. Santa Monica Pier and Venice Beach are just a couple of the must-sees in the area. Whether you're planning a family holiday, romantic stay or friends trip, vacation rentals offer features like full kitchens and laundry facilities for a more convenient stay.
A taste of the wild west in Old Town Calabasas
Built in 1844, the Leonis Adobe is one of the oldest private residences in Los Angeles. It's also one of the most haunted, as the ghost of moneyed rancher, Miguel Leonis, allegedly haunts the halls. Now on the National Register of Historic Places, this living museum is a fascinating place to spend the day. Experience life as a rancher in the 1880s, meet Percheron horses, Texas longhorn cattle, and Black Spanish turkeys. Don't forget to take a peek into the Plummer House, a former Hollywood home which was moved to the grounds of Leonis Adobe in 1983.
A Calabasas summer is a blaze of glory
Los Angeles County and Calabasas both bask in a dry climate; think laser-blue skies and days of endless sunshine. In the summer, temperatures can soar into the high 80s, which does increase the chance of smog in the cities. But even in the winter, the temperatures are pretty mild, with the occasional spot of rain in January or February. The Los Angeles area is a year-round destination, so to avoid most of the crowds, book your Calabasas vacation rental outside of the busy summer season, and opt to come in spring or fall when it's less busy.
Take a walk on the wild side in Calabasas
If you want to see wildlife in its natural habitat (and we don't mean party people shopping on Rodeo Drive), head to the western fringes of Angelese National Forest. The Wildlife Waystation is a 160-acre animal sanctuary which rescues a wide variety of animals, including hyenas, foxes, leopards, and reptiles, not all indigenous to California. Book a Calabasas vacation rental close to the Santa Monica Mountains and explore 36 miles of hiking trails in Topanga State Park, most of which have magnificent views of the Pacific Ocean.
