About this house rental
In 1927, this magical historic hunting lodge & nature cabin was the very first house on spectacular Solstice Canyon in Malibu. The majestic Redwood beams were brought up the canyon by mule train, which followed the deer path to the top. Here among the hummingbirds, eucalyptus, ocean mists, and Southern CA sunshine is the setting of our exquisite little vacation home. Just 5 mins to the beach at the bottom of the road, 6 mins to Pepperdine, and 8 mins to shops & restaurants in downtown Malibu.

Beautiful, quiet cabin with a wonderful kitchen, super comfortable bed, and wonderful yard. The place was thoughtfully appointed and Whitney leaves a handy binder full of tips and local info. Can't say enough nice things about this place, thanks for a wonderful stay!

Incredibly seamless experience, host is extremely accommodating and the house and drive to it is super beautiful. Outdoor shower is a great touch and the house feels like your own when you walk in. Great place to call “home” when visiting

This house is very comfortable, well supplied, well organized, and immaculately clean, and the owner is amazingly responsive and helpful.
The kitchen is well equipped for cooking and entertaining -- with high-quality dishes and pots and pans. The availability of miscellaneous cooking supplies is a welcome surprise.
The only issue for us was the fact that the bedroom and bathroom are on separate floors, which we survived but not without some consternation for my 77-year-old husband. Nevertheless we would definitely consider staying again.

The property is as it appears online. Great kitchen, great yard, and amenities. If you want total quiet and serenity this is the place. The only issue we had was the drive up to the house after sundown-- can be treacherous if there is fog. The canyon winds around a lot, have the manager change timer on outside lights for the full time you are staying if you intend to be out past 6 pm. The bed was not comfortable. But there is so much good that it was easy to overlook. Would recommend the manager keep a eggshell topper in linen closet for those that need it. So close to Pepperdine it worked for our visit. Beautiful surroundings.

The place was amazing, no complaints whatsoever. The only thing to know about the stay is that the drive up the side of the hill is a little daunting to newbies. Once you drive it a few times, it doesn't seem so overwhelming, but the first time (especially at night) isn't ideal. Another thing to know about house, is if security is very important to you, I don't suggest staying. The main bedroom is on the street level, and the only thing between you and an intruder is a glass sliding door. Outside of those 2 things, it was very pleasant.

A dreamy house up above it all
This is a perfect little house. It's perched on top of Malibu up in the hills. It is so well designed and impressively stocked for a rental house. It has everything you need for an amazing getaway. The gardens are gorgeous and the outdoor shower is perfection. You will never want to shower inside again.
I just can't say enough good things about this sweet house. And to top it off Whitney was an incredible host. So kind, communicative and accommodating. We had an incredible week and felt so at ease in the house. We will be back many times.
P.S. if you rent it please take good care of it. It's in perfect condition and selfishly I'd like it to stay that way. :)

Perfect spot in Malibu!
Our family had a wonderful time staying here - the house is adorable and the views are breathtaking. Super close to beaches and restaurants - couldn't have asked for a better spot!

My friend and I stayed here while visiting our daughters at Pepperdine. It's minutes from campus and PCH, yet feels like your miles away in your own little secluded mountain home. Loved the outdoor shower. Beautifully appointed and the owner was very accommodating to our needs!
