Topanga Oasis

3 sites · Lodging13 acres · Topanga, CA
You will be nestled in a 13 acres with other cottages dotted throughout the property, along with private creeks + trails up the mountain. Visiting this property is a very unique experience, some describe it as “glamorous camping”. No photoshoots, parties or cats allowed. Please read the full description, disclaimer, and reviews, to make sure this is what you are looking for. **************************************************************************** DISCLAIMER: This is quite different from staying in an ordinary hotel. We are really in NATURE here - these are older cottages hand-built by artists in the forest. They are very rustic! It's like living in a mountain village, with other cottages nearby. While we work very hard to keep our places pristine and spotless - if anyone in your group will faint if they see a bug or lizard or little frog inside - then this probably isn't the place for you. Please be very careful booking cottages for someone else - like your parents just arriving from another continent - they might prefer something more conventional. Some folks describe our places as a luxurious form of camping. We make our cottages very comfortable - they have all the basics - electricity - wifi - most have kitchens, bath or shower and comfy clean beds. But they are not like a hotel with perfect walls and a sterile atmosphere. Please look at all the pictures and read all the reviews. We can't offer refunds just because we don't meet the standards of a normal hotel. Most people are charmed by this idyllic and bohemian lifestyle - but it's not for everyone. ********************************************************************* FILM AND PHOTOS SHOOTS: This is an amazing property for photography, and film, with 13 acres of rustic cottages, oak forests and sculpted streams. But please note we have special, and quite reasonable rates for filming, in addition to the normal rental charges. Please let us know ahead of time so we can work out the details. Commercial filming is not permitted without permission. Charming Cabin Ideal for Hikers and Nature Lovers in Topanga, California

Cabins near Glendale guide

Overview

At the eastern edge of the San Fernando Valley, Glendale is ideally situated between LA and Burbank. Once you’ve seen the sights (and noshed on Armenian cuisine), hike nearby Deukmejian Wilderness Park, see Griffith Park, or explore the trails at any of the three national forests nearby. Campers can also head to the coast to enjoy the sun, sand, and surf, or hit Los Angeles for Hollywood glamor and more culture. There are plenty of options for Glendale camping, from private RV parks in the San Fernando Valley with full hookups and deluxe amenities to scenic state parks and beaches with tent sites, RV sites, and cottages. For simple sites, try the national forest campgrounds.

Where to go

Greater Los Angeles area

Campers can stay at a private RV park in the San Fernando Valley near Glendale to be close to the city and all the urban amenities of Los Angeles. Head to the coast to enjoy the pier at Santa Monica, Venice Beach, laid-back Long Beach, or catch some waves at Huntington Beach, and camp overnight near the water at Bolsa Chica State Beach and Crystal Cove State Park.

Malibu and Santa Monica

Head west to the Santa Monica Mountains to escape the urban bustle, and explore the rugged terrain and Hollywood history while camping overnight at Malibu Creek State Park. Enjoy glamorous Malibu and the sun and surf at Malibu Lagoon State Beach, or combine beach and camping at Point Mugu State Park and Leo Carillo State Park. Further up the coast, enjoy the American Riviera at Santa Barbara, and camp near a beach at Carpinteria State Beach.

National Forests

The Angeles National Forest sits just northeast of Glendale. Enjoy hiking, horseback riding, waterfall chasing, wildlife viewing, and choose from more than 50 campgrounds with tent sites, RV sites, and cabins. Further east, the San Bernardino National Forest has more rugged wilderness, peaks, forests, and popular lakes like Lake Arrowhead and Big Bear Lake, plus plenty of camping options. For even more wilderness camping options, head to Los Padres National Forest or Cleveland National Forest.

When to go

Summers are the most popular time for visiting Glendale. The weather is ideal for outdoor activities, especially those involving water, along the coast, and at the many area beaches. Visit in the spring for dazzling wildflower displays, especially at Deukmejian Wilderness Park. Crowds are also smaller in the spring, fall, and winter, which offers generally mild weather. Visit in September for the Glendale Arts and Music Festival.
