The Rose Cottage is clean, comfortable, and well-appointed. We love Sierra Madre, and it’s location makes it easy to get to LA and other areas in SoCal. Perfect!

Our return to Rose Cottage was just as wonderful as our first stay 2 years ago. Everything is so pretty, comfortable, and well maintained. We love the neighborhood and location with mountain views. Sierra Madre is a little oasis from all the hustle & bustle of the LA area. We visit family in LA every 1-2 years and this will continue to be our 1st choice for home base.

My cousin and I had a great time! Check in was easy, house equipped with everything we needed! Adorable home. Within walking distance to downtown Sierra Madre, coffee shops, breakfast, and Taylor’s market. Thank you!!!

The Rose Cottage has become our home away from home when we visit our family in the LA area. Always clean, comfortable, and convenient. Sierra Madre has plenty of restaurants and coffee shops, all within walking distance if you don’t mind hills. If you don’t feel like hiking there’s plenty of public parking downtown.

The property is clean and comfortable, and in a quiet neighborhood. The kitchen is well-appointed with everything you need to prepare simple meals and even Christmas cookies. We love Sierra Madre and look forward to our next visit.

The previous reviews accurately detail the pleasant accommodations. We loved the city and surrounding area. Walked from the cottage to downtown several times. However there were negative aspects of our visit. The first one was the lack of information provided for us to access the cottage. I had received an email from VRBO a few days before our visit. The subject was "Here are the keys to your trip!" So we assumed the entry instructions were included. When we arrived at the property after a two hour traffic slog from LAX I opened the email. The email advised that "The host hasn't provided arrival information yet. For the most up-to-date info, contact the property manager directly." So I figured no problem I would just access the property manager information through the VRBO app. Apparently there are long standing problems with the VRBO app and IOS devices. We repeatedly attempted to access the app while using cell service while standing in the property driveway. We failed. After 15 minutes of trying we left and called the VRBO customer service number. They eventually put us in touch with the property manager. We also determined we could use the app with Wi-Fi we later accessed in town. Another first was the required $1750 security deposit. The VRBO site indicates $250? I asked the property manager why ours was so high. I did not receive an answer.

Great Cottage! Loved everything about it! It was even beautiful in the rain. Highly recommend

The beautiful Rose Cottage was the perfect base for our visit to Sierra Madre and the surrounding area. It had everything we needed and we would certainly recommend it to family and friends.
