The cottage is sweet, cozy, clean, comfy, and well-stocked; situated in a lovely, well-maintained garden; in a quiet, safe, and convenient neighborhood. I enjoyed cooking in the perfect kitchen, and spent lots of time loafing on the comfy couches on the deck. I stayed a week, while various friends and family members each joined me for a few nights. At the end, I hosted a family brunch. EVERYONE wanted Jennifer's info so they could rent the cottage on their next trip!

I love this place! The beds were extremely comfortable. The garden and house are delightful on an easy to park street in a perfect location not far from the famous Venice Beach. Excellent restaurants are all around along with plenty of places to exercise it all off. The Santa Monica pier isn’t far away and neither is Malibu. Jennifer is attentive, kind, easy to communicate with and laidback. Her place is beautiful and I’ll definitely stay here again. Perfect!!

Charming home on quiet street. Comfortable inside with room to entertain small family group. Lovely flowering plants outside, with wonderful fruit trees that provided us with great citrus for breakfast! Parking was not a problem and location convenient. We would stay there again!

My wife and I stayed there for a few days and actually planning to go back soon. Very charming cottage near Venice beach . Everything was ready for our arrival and the house was very clean. Thank you Jennifer

The house is in a great location and really cute. I was a little disappointed that we couldn’t use the back patio but I’ll blame that on the weather. The house was well stocked, great communication when we needed it but you need to work on getting rid of the ants in the kitchen area. All and all it was a good week

House was clean and tidy and delivered what it promised. We very much enjoyed our stay and will recommend it to our friends. Thanks so much for sharing this special place with our family.

This sunny French cottage was the perfect place to be for 3 old friends to reconnect and relax and laugh. We especially enjoyed the back deck and gazebo as the weather was perfect for sitting outside. The cottage was nicely decorated and very clean. It was well stocked for cooking in and Melody, who lives in the back cottage was very helpful in getting us situated, answering questions, etc.

Great location. Pretty house. Good place to entertain a few friends.

We loved this cottage. Jennifer the owner was really kind and helpful. The cottage is very comfortable and the fruit trees are really fun. We had fresh grapefruits and lemons every day. The cat who lives in the bungalow behind the house visited everyday. The location is great, very quiet safe neighborhood. We will definitely be staying here again.

My parents stayed at Jennifer's house and really love the home, bikes and proximity to the beach. Because of the location they were able to ride to the beach every day and we took in some of Venice's hot spots. Jennifer was great to communicate and figure out logistics with.

Great location. Easy to walk or bike to the beach. Our family stayed for a week in July and really enjoyed the cottage. Came out for a wedding and loved having the garden to entertain.

My husband, son and granddaughter and I sent three nights at the charming cottage near Venice Beach. The property is in a nice quiet neighborhood, conveniently located to shopping, restaurants and beaches. The gardens provided fresh ingredients for our supper, and my granddaughter enjoyed exploring the nooks and crannies around the property, as well as petting the resident outdoor cats. The kitchen is pleasant and has everything needed for a short stay. We especially loved lounging in the backyard gazebo, listening to music and surrounded by lush plantings. It was a wonderful place to read and have morning coffee and an evening glass of wine. The home is furnished with in an eclectic French country style and immaculately clean. We would definitely rebook if we were to return to the area. My 6 year old granddaughter has wonderful memories of our weekend together there.

Perfect country escape - large yards with furniture for outdoor activities, vegetable garden, quiet neighborhood with Neighborhood Watch, and completely furnished home with kitchen, bed and bath accessories. Good for families with games and books included.

We spent an amazing 8 nights at Jennifer's cottage in Venice, just a 10 minute bike ride away from the coast. The house had everything you could need, and more! We particularly enjoyed the bikes for easy access to everywhere. The street and area are so pretty. Venice beach is fab, especially Mercedes Bar - def recommend trying for happy hour....very strong cocktails! The stay was wonderful and I will definitely be booking again.

I spent 2 1/2 weeks in this Venice house for a family wedding. The house is in a fabulous location, close to Lincoln and Venice Boulevards, near Santa Monica, Marina del Rey and the beach, but on a quiet side street. There is a lovely front garden where I tended to spend my outside time, and a bigger back yard. Both are enclosed which is important if you bring your dogs, as I did. The house itself is a pleasure, a very adequate two bedroom decorated in a somewhat quirky french provincial style. The kitchen is very well-equipped, easy to cook in, and the owner offers you the use of any of the vegetables growing in the yard. If you are looking for something slick and new, this is not the house for you, but if you are looking for something that feels like a real home, this might be it. I would be happy to return.

We stayed at the cottage for 5 days and everything was perfect. The owner is lovely as the house and the environment. The location of the house is ideal because it is close to highways and 20 min walk to the beach which is quite suitable . I will recommend this to all my friends house . Thank you .

It was a pleasure to stay in Jennifer’s cottage. Most of what we felt about the property has been said in previous reviews and we would endorse them all. The cottage is homely and extremely comfortable and it became a welcome haven during a very hot and busy visit to LA. The garden’s a delight to sit in. We saw humming birds and parrots in the garden and ate the delicious tomatoes which one of our little family members (2 ½ years old) took pleasure in picking when he visited. We were also pleased that there were toys to entertain our little visitor who delighted in the building blocks. The only thing we would suggest is that visitors buy provisions before arriving as there was nothing in the cupboard when we arrived rather late and very tired. Luckily we had family close by who could help. Apart from that minor suggestion we would highly recommend the bungalow and certainly plan on staying again when we next visit LA.

This place was perfect for our family. We were 4 adults and 1 child, with another daughter who lives near by also spent everyday visiting us with her child, and we never felt crowded. There are so many places within the house and yard to hang out, though the majority was spent out in the back patio, which was huge, comfy and nice and cool even on warm days. The kids loved playing the piano, as well as I. You don't need anything here, as there is everything you could ask for. We spent most of the week at the beach, so all the beach supplies came in handy. Costco was just a block away, so very handy to get lots of our meals from there. Riding the bike there a couple of times was much easier than navigating the parking lot of a very busy Store, though my local daughter who lives there lent us her bike chariot for the week, and it can hold a lot of groceries. The beach was close, though venice beach on weekends is crowded and busy, we always went to Ocean Way beach, which isn't to far a drive. And the bike ride to the beach is perfect, no hills at all. We have rented different cottages before where we would always have to navigates hills to get to the beach, so this was nice. Venice road, just a block away, has a safe bike lane all the way to the beach, about ten minutes. The owner was very helpful and always an email away , or phone, if you needed her. We did on the first day there, contacted her, and the problem was fixed right away. There is always plenty of parking on the street, mostly always got parking right in front of the house. The cottage itself was like being in its very own little forest, and we did take advantage of a couple of fruits and vegetables in bloom. The grapefruit was the best. And the lemons too. There is a woman caretaker in the back, but it doesn't interfere with your stay and privacy. So overall, this was a great place and will come back again.

We were looking for a week's rental for a family of four (inc. 1 child and 1 toddler) and knew that a hotel wouldnt work for us. This cottage was absolutely perfect. It had 2 bedrooms so we could sleep in comfortable, an impeccably CLEAN kitchen with everything you would need to make meals, and a nice sitting area that allowed us to comfortably entertain other families. The garden was lovely and we daily had some birds visiting us. We could have used some of the veggies in the garden, but ended up not needing them. Jennifer was a gracious host, giving us tons of info and always being available to answer any of our questions. Location just great; not on the beach, but wonderful access to it. There is no designated parking for the cottage, but we always found it on the street no more than a couple of houses away. A lovely piece of paradise in Venice.
