Shabby Chic Rose Cottage Southern California

ROSE COTTAGE is located in the historical foothill community of Sierra Madre! Just a few miles away from the famous Rose Parade route! It is a clean and beautifully renovated two bedroom house on a quiet residential street within walking distance from coffee shops and restaurants. Our cottage is light and airy with comfortable furnishings and original wood floors. Enjoy an enclosed newly landscaped private back & front yard with a picket fence and roses. Enjoy new air conditioning and heating.

No large parties or events. There is absolutely no cigarette or cigar smoking, vaping of any kind, or pot smoking or drug use on the property. You should not book this property if you think that will be a problem or if you intend to smoke or use drugs away from the cottage and bring back any lingering odors/effects as these things are very difficult to remove from linens, walls, and carpet. Thank you for understanding. No visitors after 11pm. We reserve the right to terminate the rental if complaint from neighbors.

No filming or commercial photography are allowed in the property. A permit is required by the city.

The black trash bin is for non-recycle waste and is stored in the garage due to BEARS, the blue one is for recycle items. Please do not use the green trash bin desinated for the gardener only.

Another Fabulous Stay!

Our return to Rose Cottage was just as wonderful as our first stay 2 years ago. Everything is so pretty, comfortable, and well maintained. We love the neighborhood and location with mountain views. Sierra Madre is a little oasis from all the hustle & bustle of the LA area. We visit family in LA every 1-2 years and this will continue to be our 1st choice for home base.

Always Lovely

The Rose Cottage has become our home away from home when we visit our family in the LA area. Always clean, comfortable, and convenient. Sierra Madre has plenty of restaurants and coffee shops, all within walking distance if you don’t mind hills. If you don’t feel like hiking there’s plenty of public parking downtown.

Would stay here again!

A beautiful property that was very clean and had all the amenities we wanted. We stayed here for almost a week with our 2 kids while visiting family in the area and had a great stay. We loved the location and felt safe walking in the neighborhood and to the downtown area. Loved having the washer and dryer available as well! Definitely would stay here again the next time we are in town!

This beautifully decorated cottage is a rose lovers dream. Nestled at the foot of the Sierra Madre mountains, it provides a lovely experience in lodging with top of the line appliances and amenities. Both indoors and out it is a memorable way to experience Southern California.

Beautifully decorated-quiet neighborhood

This cottage is picture perfect! Fit our family needs without hustle and bustle of the city. Very close to the Metro which made it hassle free from driving ourselves into LA and easy to travel to anything we wanted to see in Pasadena. Kitchen was fully stocked. The neighborhood is quaint, quiet, and safe if you are a runner or walker.

Perfect in Every Way!

We spent a week at the Rose Cottage and could not have found a more perfect place for four people. It was impeccable; very clean and beautifully decorated. Kim and Justin have thought of everything their guests could possibly need. We made many meals in the well-stocked kitchen. The appliances are great quality and the washer and dryer are the best we have ever found in a rental. The outdoor space is very inviting and peaceful. We had a great time playing ping-pong; wonderful entertainment. Would definitely return as this is a great place to relax in a wonderful town!

Relaxing

All good except for the bed in first bedroom squeaked terribly. The ping pong table was dirty and difficult to play on because it was at a bad angle and floor was uneven. Disappointing. Pictures are deceiving. The house itself was beautiful. We did enjoy our stay.

Home Away From Home...truly

We had the honor and pleasure to stay at Rose Cottage for over a month while our own home was under construction. Justin and Kim were gracious hosts and Rose Cottage is beautiful and comfortable. I'm not sure I can express how much we loved staying there. This place had everything we needed to live comfortably. Kim replenished supplies as needed. Washer, dryer, dishwasher, microwave, toaster, spices, some dry goods, dishware galore, Keirig machine, electric kettle, big mugs, bath soap, make up remover, Q tips, hair dryer, first aid kit, bubble bath, even cozy blankets to curl up with. They thought of everything. The beds are very comfortable and have luxurious, high end linens that feel like you're sleeping on a cloud. In fact, we were impressed with the high quality of everything, including the bath towels. We will always have fond memories of Rose Cottage and hope to stay again soon. Enjoy your stay...we sure did!

Property and Location are Wonderful

The previous reviews accurately detail the pleasant accommodations. We loved the city and surrounding area. Walked from the cottage to downtown several times. However there were negative aspects of our visit. The first one was the lack of information provided for us to access the cottage. I had received an email from VRBO a few days before our visit. The subject was "Here are the keys to your trip!" So we assumed the entry instructions were included. When we arrived at the property after a two hour traffic slog from LAX I opened the email. The email advised that "The host hasn't provided arrival information yet. For the most up-to-date info, contact the property manager directly." So I figured no problem I would just access the property manager information through the VRBO app. Apparently there are long standing problems with the VRBO app and IOS devices. We repeatedly attempted to access the app while using cell service while standing in the property driveway. We failed. After 15 minutes of trying we left and called the VRBO customer service number. They eventually put us in touch with the property manager. We also determined we could use the app with Wi-Fi we later accessed in town. Another first was the required $1750 security deposit. The VRBO site indicates $250? I asked the property manager why ours was so high. I did not receive an answer.
