Cottage holiday rentals in Pasadena

This was our third trip to Darrell’s place in 2 1/2 years. We just can’t get enough! Each trip we add another night to our stay. We’re already checking our schedule for a trip back in October! This guest house is a tiny home, packed full of everything you need. We enjoyed cooking on the little two burner stove top, extra blankets for lounging around on the outdoor bed, mini fridge holds a lot, toaster oven, space heater for the chilly evenings, tv with cable and WiFi. Our favorite thing about this place is the feeling we get when we’re here. We’re instantly at peace. It’s calm and serene. We enjoyed working on crafts at the picnic table under the trees, listening to the deep wind chimes resonate throughout the property. Birds and other wild life are active and brought life to the experience as well as the flow of the many water falls. Darrell is really friendly, and generous. We’re so grateful that he offers this space to us to rent. Looking forward to our next visit!

This is our 3rd time staying at Joseph & Kelly’s place! It is always a pleasure! They make you feel right at home and are willing to help with any need! We love this place and plan to return very soon!

Lynne's place is a beautiful 3-bedroom home right in the heart of Topanga. It is cozy, cute, and clean. We loved the outdoor bath house. Lynne was responsive, friendly, and helpful. Would return. Thanks!

Definitely wanted to stay longer! Connie made us feel welcomed before our stay even started and was even more of a delight to meet in person. The property is beautiful! Cottage was perfect for us and our pups. Neighborhood streets are nice to walk down with stores and restaurants easy to walk to. I can go on and on about the positives so I’ll just say that we will always check availability here first for any return trips.

5 stars – A Perfect Stay! 
I cannot recommend this place enough! From the moment I arrived, everything exceeded my expectations. The cottage was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had all the amenities I could possibly need. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and I appreciated the thoughtful touches like fresh coffee, extra towels, and a helpful guide with local recommendations. The location was perfect—close to everything, yet peaceful and quiet at night. Communication with the host was seamless; Linda was very thoughtful, responsive, friendly, and went out of her way to make sure I had a great experience. I especially appreciated the little things that showed she cared like the personal welcome and farewell notes. I’ll definitely be coming back!

the back yard, pool and cottage is beautiful and relaxing. the pool was wamed up for us. everything was clean and very cute. i hosted a little bbq here with the family and the main reason why everyone was so delighted with the place was because of Connie. such a wonderful soul. thank you and we will definitely make this a spot to book throughout the year.

Can't say enough good things about the beautiful place, location, attention to detail and the host, Ann. I will be back.

MK is a fantastic host! Her place is in a wonderful, central location that allows you to easily get around LA which is saying a lot as LA can be a tough city to get around in. The home matched the description and photos. MK was very accommodating, flexible, kind, and responsive - thank you for a great stay!

This is a paradisiac place. Very secluded and surrounded by nature, ideal to really unplug. The outdoor kitchen is beautiful, as well as the swimming pool and the suite. Karen was an excellent host, always available when we needed something. We are looking forward to come back soon!

We had a very enjoyable night. It was very peaceful. The morning birdsong was incredible.

The Love Lodge remains our Home Away From Home! We'll be back again and again... :)

This was at least my third stay at Lisa’s place. I keep coming back for the value, the privacy and the beautiful surroundings. The place e is quirky, but we love that and we love Lisa and family as hosts. Good people who deserve our support.

Super nice and super clean place to stay. Exactly as described. Questions and requests were immediately addressed. (We needed a 3rd chair, it was brought directly on request.) Super friendly. Only the neighbor's dogs are pretty loud. If we come to Los Angeles again, we will come directly again

Great little house. Super cute. I will caution anyone who wants a soft bed, this is not the place for you. The beds are incredibly firm and make for tough sleeping if you’re a softer bed type. My husband would have loved the beds.

This place was my saving grace, total last minute find and I've already recommended it to a friend! Our favorite part of the stay was definitely the deck and the foliage, it was so beautiful! The beds were comfy and we loved throwing the windows and french doors open when it got warm. Between two of us, there was more than enough space. The location was great too, pretty close to some good spots like Valerie's and some nice bars in the area. Will keep this place in my lists of good LA stays(:

I stay here anytime I am in topanga. Such a lovely oasis. Cooked myself dinner and breakfast, sat in the beautifully clean sauna (heats up quick), took a bath outside, napped in the hammock, and was on my way. Perfect place to stay, 10/10.

Thank you Vivian and Co for welcoming us a second time! Great hosts. Great stay. Would recommend to anyone.

Beautiful historic bungalow in Downtown Orange with a wonderful patio and fire pit to relax and unwind. The location is perfect in a safe neighborhood and in walking distance to restaurants and Chapman University. Steve was a great host and accommodating! I highly recommend this Airbnb!

Craig was friendly, helpful, responsive, and provided great local recommendations. The Airbnb was exactly what I needed for a solo trip, and the location was quiet despite being only a few blocks south of the busiest part of Hollywood. I highly recommend staying here.

Very comfortable stay close to the Redondo beach pier. Walking distance. Accurate description. Second bedroom bed is tiny. Well stocked kitchen. A lot of restaurants nearby. We had a wonderful time at Wendy's place.

Great cottage with lovely yard - very comfortable patio chairs and wonderful shady tree! Can walk to many kinds of restaurants, coffee, and drinks.

Lovely very private apartment in safe residential area. Not near downtown but close to Loyola Marymount University. Short drive to beach and airport (not really walkable). Photos are accurate, the tiny patio is very sweet.

It was my best Airbnb experiences ever. The house is like totally brand new. The room is best for two. You can get almost everything you need in the house. The neighborhood is really quiet. And place is easy to find through navigation.

We had a great stay. The location was great, the beds were comfortable. Parking right outside was nice and convenient. The one time we had to communicate with Joel he was very responsive. Thank you!
