We had a great time staying in the Altadena area. We were able to take advantage of Huntington Gardens, Hiking which was in walking distance to the house, the fun shopping an restaurants of Pasadena and Universal. The house was exactly what we needed, comfortable and had all the amenities we needed. We come often to the area and would stay here again

Sage Cottage was an excellent place to stay! We were in Southern CA for four days and it was centrally located to the places we visited on our vacation. The house was cute and clean. The neighborhood was very peaceful and quiet. And the price was very affordable! I would definitely recommend this property.

Sage Cottage is in a great location. Museums, gardens, restaurants and hikes are very close. The neighborhood is very quiet. The house is clean and the management company is responsive. The two main bedrooms are good sized with K or Q beds. If you plan to use the third bedroom it is small with a twin size bed, less light than the other two and no bedside table.

We had a wonderful stay with our family. Host left us lovely welcome goodies. I think other guests have done some damage since there were notes about many details like cost of missing towels and use of pantry items. Would have liked a few more garbage bags 2 was not enough. Dryer is not working very well causing it to run for extended periods. That being said we left the house very clean as we always do. Would definitely stay there again. Thank you

We had a great time at this cute house. It was well-appointed, the house was stocked with everything we needed. I loved coming home after a long day and relaxing on the huge comfy couch. The location was on a nice quiet street, but it was still close to great restaurants and things to do.

We booked this property for our Universal Studios trip with our kids. It was a perfect location. I wanted to be away from Hollywood and downtown LA but close enough to where it wasnt too far of a drive. The mountain range behind the neighborhood was beautiful. We were going to hike, but the kids preferred to drive to the top. Wimps! (lol) All in all, this was a great stay and slept the 5 of us just perfectly.

This house was very quaint. It was very well updated on the inside and had everything our family needed for our 4 days. The location was good for us as it got you out of the real busy part of the cities, but you could also be on the freeway within 5 min.
The check in process was easy and the property manager was easy to get a hold of.

Location and space of the home was nice. Easy check-in and check-out process was also very appreciated. However, the listing included a fitness center, which was not found on the property. This was an important amenity for our group, and we were disappointed to see that the property did not have gym equipment. Additionally, there were stains on the bedding of all three beds (pillows, bedsheets, comforters) and stains on the couch. Overall, we felt the cleanliness of the property could be better.

What a comfortable home! Clean, spacious, and welcoming. We thoroughly enjoyed staying here with our kids and grandma, and grandma‘s little dog! Seemed like every detail was covered: snacks left for us, notes on how to use everything, great beds/baths/linens, back patio space, parking, and even a new non-stick pan! My ONLY suggestions would be to add steak knives , fill up the propane gas for the grill, and afix the glass tabletop to the base. But these are all VERY minor compared to the rest of the perfect accoutrements of this place. Would definitely stay here again! THANK YOU!

As always the home is very clean, quiet neighborhood. We only sleep and shower at the house so don't know about amenities in the kitchen. We with washcloths were provided but that is a very small thing. A nice tray of goodies is always left which is a very nice touch we haven't had at any other VRBO. The managers stay in touch and I'm sure would be there if there were any concerns. Yard was clean and kept up as well.

Reviewer Comments:
While we generally were happy with this property there were several things that could make it a better stay for all. The most important being that the book of house instructions needs to be updated. For example, the microwave appears to have been changed and the instructions for operation in the book did not apply to the current microwave. Many items that were said to be in one location were in a completely different area. There was no dish drainer under the sink or anywhere in the house, for example. Also a couple thinks, like the toilet roll holder in the main BR was broken. We fixed it. We also fixed the Roku remote control. The silverware drawer has only 3 teaspoons in it for a house that supposedly sleeps 7. Also, a full length mirror and Kleenex would be nice. We were there for a wedding and there was no way to see how we looked from top to bottom. (I was the mother of the bride and would really have appreciated this.) Also, it's kind of tacky to have a "welcome" plate and bottle of wine, but then to ask that the guests replace them if they eat/drink them. It is a convenient location and was very clean.

We spent 5 weeks in this home in winter 2022. It’s in a nice neighborhood which was quiet and good for walking. The living room furniture was comfortable, as was the master bedroom mattress. We enjoyed the backyard very much, but the cushions on the chairs are badly ripped, the table umbrella is broken, and there is leftover construction debris around. The staff at Vacation Living are wonderful. They are very responsive if any issue comes up. We’ve rented from them a few times and they are always great.

Reasonable accommodation for families with responsive management company
Altadena is beautiful. It was great to have a house with a front and back yard as it provided plenty of space for our family. The couch appeared old and the Pack N Play available with the property was dirty. However, we mentioned this to the management company, which was very responsive and provided us with another Pack N Play later that day. Overall, this property can accommodate families well and the responsiveness of the management company is a plus.
