It's our pleasure to have you stay with us during your visit to Los Angeles. Whether you want to relax or be active, we're sure you'll enjoy your stay.

The Topanga Canyon Inn is tucked away in an idyllic, rural setting in the Santa Monica Mountains surrounded by thousands of acres of Topanga State Park wilderness which is further surrounded by thousands of square miles of Los Angeles.

Located in free-spirited Topanga Canyon, west of Los Angeles, the Inn is about one mile off busy Topanga Canyon Boulevard and about 400 feet up a private road. While greater Los Angeles is just over the hill from us, you wouldn't know it. We have a quiet, country atmosphere with no road noise, lots of open space, wild-life and trails in Topanga State Park.

The Inn comprises two Mediterranean style buildings, the Casa Blanca, the white house and the Casa Rosa, the rose colored house. Our constantly growing collection of antique Craftsman furniture graces the living rooms, the dining rooms and some bedrooms. California plein air paintings by your hostess, Elena Roché and fine art nature photography by Catherine Roché are exhibited throughout the Inn and many are available for sale.

Guests are invited to use all of the common spaces, kitchens, balconies and decks. Use our kitchen stocked with supplies to make tea, coffee, hot cocoa and popcorn any time. In addition we offer, cookies, fruit and baked snacks. Cable TV and a land-line phone are available in the common areas. Breakfast is served in the Casa Rosa dining room every day at 8:30 AM with a second shift, when necessary, at approximately 9:30 AM.

Hiking, jogging, mountain biking, plein air painting, nature photography and bird watching start right out the door. Beaches and surfing are only fifteen minutes down the Canyon. The Village at Topanga and The Westfield Topanga Mall are only 20 minutes north of us. There is no public transportation in Topanga. You will need to rent a car or hire a car service to get here.
