Fantastic spot

Fantastic LA weekend getaway. We live in LA but were looking for a mini two night getaway. The 'Hideaway' was perfect. A secluded location with an amazing view of Topanga Canyon and short drive down to Malibu for a day trip to the beach. Owners were very friendly and respectful of our privacy, they live in the house above the cottage so are just a phone call or text message away if needed, made us feel welcome and we loved having their dogs wander down to play with us. Would highly recommend, price is right, we would return.

Two Thumbs Up...Way Up!

Wow! We just got back from our stay at the Hideaway. It's hard to express how grateful we are to the way Olga and her family made us feel welcome. We are a Midwestern family of four with two teenagers. We were looking to do some touristy things in Hollywood and at the same time enjoy the local life of Topango, Santa Monica and Malibu. Olga provided us with great suggestions. Every suggestion was a winner with our family. She even guided us on a six mile hike to Eagle Rock!

The proximity of the Hideaway provides easy access to all the great activities of California life yet provides the seclusion of being able to get away from it all.

The only downside to our stay was it was too short.

Thanks Olga!
Owner's Response: Jeff and Linda (and the kids)! I really enjoyed meeting your family and taking you on one of my most challenging hikes;) Hope you come back and see us soon!
Olga and the boys.

upon arrival both me and my fiancee immediately felt connected to this amazing Hideaway. There is something about the atmosphere on this property that i love it is so peaceful it feels like you are not in California anymore. great views -great energy coming out of this house. we will definitely be back!!!!

Olga came down to greet us, she is such a nice person very friendly and attentive. As much as we tried leaving the house to go enjoy the beach.......... we couldn't!!!

we just wanted to sit near the edge of the hill and enjoy the view drink some wine ...so relaxing

to me it was like a Spa getaway as weird as it may sound, i was so relaxed which was perfect before getting back to the busy L.A lifestyle. it was a very therapeutic weekend.
the house is so big and clean with all the amenities to make you feel like home. cant wait to go back!!!
Owner's Response: Luis and Susan, I am sooooo happy you guys were able to relax and enjoy your weekend, really makes me happy to hear this! This is exactly why we decided to do this HomeAway thing, this place is just too special not to share:)
Please, come back to the canyon soon.

Can't wait to go back to the Hideway where I loved the views, the hikes, and the gorgeous plantings! The cottage is very comfortable and the property is peaceful. I enjoyed sipping morning coffee overlooking the canyon followed by a long hike from Topanga State Park to the pacific ocean overlook. The owner was hospitable. Can't go wrong with a trip to the Hideaway!
Owner's Response: It was great having you Carole! Hope to see you back at The Hideaway soon:)

my fiancee and i stayed at this beautiful house this weekend and we will be back soon!...

This place is truly a hidden gem, local yet so far away. Upon arrival Olga gave us a warm greet, and was very attentive. we loved the place at first sight it brought very good energy and peace to us, exactly what we were looking for this weekend to get away from our busy city life. the house was so clean and spacious, the pictures are very accurate and trust me you will not be disappointed. for us it was a therapeutic getaway we were looking forward to being relaxed and at peace and to be honest we both agree that this place is the perfect hideaway from it all. for us it is convenient since it was a very short drive from west los angeles to topanga canyon. the house is very private and has great mountain scenery and a very spacious yard. thanks a lot Olga we are truly hoping to be back soon.........
