Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My husband, adult granddaughter, and me stayed in this amazing cottage at the end of September into October of 2023. The atmosphere was peaceful and relaxing. The three of us were in awe of the collection of travel artifacts the family collected. The bedrooms were on opposite ends of the cottage providing privacy as well as private bathrooms. The cottage had high-end Viking appliances, which were a great surprise especially because we are foodies that love to cook. We enjoyed watching the squirrels play in the private yard, complete with eucalyptus and persimmon trees. The property was well maintained and stocked with everything we needed...and then some! We were centrally located to restaurants, Pasadena Old Town, and the Rose Bowl, which was our concert venue. Our adventure to Santa Monica Pier was an easy drive.We are expecting return visits to this area over the next few years and will certainly plan to return to this lovely, peaceful cottage.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our second visit to Englenook and, like before, it did not disappoint. When traveling alone, I feel safe in this quiet and comfortably welcoming space. It is convenient to all our needs in Pasadena, Altadena, La Canada - the Rose Bowl, Huntington Library and Simon art museum, parks, stores and so on. I have one suggestion for furniture in the common area - a comfortable lounge chair with ottoman (a nice chair is in the master bedroom) - the two long lounging sofas are comfortable if laying on them but not for sitting (and reading a book for example). Just a suggestion - this would not prevent me from coming to this property again soon.

I came to this property for a writing retreat and I couldn't have been happier with it. It's quiet, peaceful and zen-like. The yard is lovely, the bed is comfortable, and the kitchen is well-stocked. It's clean and the instructions for how to use different things (the tv, the bbq, etc.) were very clear. I highly recommend this property.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: What a great house! We stayed here while some work was being done on our own home which is less than two miles away but this place felt far more removed. It felt like we were in a mountain cabin even though we were closer to shops etc. than our own place

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great stay In Englenook which we have stayed in before. The property is lovely and the secluded garden is a joy to sit in and relax. The house has most of what you need but it does require some care and attention to the details. Essentially everything in the house is getting old and a bit tired. The sofas etc need a deep clean or replacement. The kitchen is a chaotic collection of disparate items and needs more saucepans to easily cook a meal. The outdoor furniture is urgently in need of either new cushions or replacement. Despite all of this, we love the house and it’s location.

The photos are 100% accurate. The property is stunning. It has been lovingly remodeled. The pictures do not do justice to the yard. Despite being in a suburb of America's second largest city, the property feels rural when inside or in the yard. We saw squirrels in the yard every day, and birds bathe in the water feature regularly. Property management checked in and made themselves available, but we didn't need anything. We regret scheduling every day away from the property. When we return, we'll try to set aside at least a full day to just relax and read a book in the yard.
