Our little piece of the Earth. Welcome to our Hipcamp page! We have two accommodations: The Rose City Garden Studio and The Pepper Tree Cottage Tiny Home. The Garden Studio is unavailable at this time. Our property is located at the base of the San Gabriel mountains in Pasadena. 15 minutes (traffic permitting) from Downtown LA. Come enjoy our delightful and unique space on Aprox. 1/4 acre. Nature and serenity close to the big city. Read more about the property in the site descriptions. Message me with questions!Enjoy a tiny home experience close to the big city.  Nestled under our 100+ year old Pepper tree is our unique, well appointed Cottage tiny home. (Update: Our beloved Pepper tree has died and been cut down. Theres a giant stump there to say hello to). The Cottage is located at the base of the San Gabriel Mountains in the city of Pasadena.  We are on the border of Altadena which you may or may not know has suffered a horrific natural disaster (windstorm / fire). Where we are sees no burn scar but it is't too far from us. About .5 miles. The Tiny Home has been professionally tested for toxins (none) and thoroughly cleaned. Please message with questions regarding this if you have them. This is a very special spot. You'll enjoy getting fresh eggs from our hens and picking fruits and veggies (when in season) from our large permaculture garden. Please note: the Cottage is right next to the coop, you will absolutely hear chicken sounds.  Stay 15 minutes from Downtown LA but feel secluded and part of the natural world here in The Pepper Tree Cottage. AC/heat, WiFi, full kitchen. Greenhouse bathroom is outdoors (see photos) but very private. Towels and many toiletries provided. You'll have your own private patio area next to the Cottage as well as shared areas throughout the yard. My young adult sons (2 of the 3 of them) and I live here on the property. We look forward to hosting you in our delightful and unique space. **Note: Photos are from when I listed this space here previously 5 years ago. Some of the furnishings have changed, the hedges are huge (can't really see the cottage behind them anymore (well, after the recent windstorm the hedges and other plants look a bit bare but are coming around). The yard and garden are essentially the same but the fire pit and the hammock are gone (destroyed in the windstorm). I'll be uploading fresh pictures here real soon. Standby.

Such a lovely cottage ! Perfect for a weekend getaway. The space succeeded any expectations my girlfriend and I had, the chickens were a pleasure more than anything. Cynthia is such a generous host, we highly recommend this space !

We had a wonderful stay in this tiny home. From our morning breakfasts next to the chickens to the evening glasses of wine on the patio. This was a truly magical stay.

A Pasadena Gem
Spent my birthday weekend in this lovely tiny house. The vibe is so fresh and inviting. When the sun sets the light is magical. Plenty of parking and the neighborhood is nice. Book it, you won’t regret it.
