Family-friendly holiday rentals in Highland Park, Los Angeles

Absolutely amazing stay! It was a little tricky to find at first, but so worth it—this place is a hidden gem! The moment you walk through the gate, you're greeted with breathtaking views and an incredibly peaceful, serene ambiance. It truly feels like a private escape from the city. 10 out of 10 — I would definitely recommend this spot to anyone looking for a calm, peaceful getaway. Can’t wait to come back!

Johnny's home is a beautiful retreat in a quiet residential neighborhood. The backyard with pool and hottub is a perfect place to gather with friends and family at the end of the day. Johnny is a wonderful communicator he was always available for us, he got back to us very quickly. I would highly recommend this home. We would stay here again.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Staying at James’ home was nothing short of magical! Nestled right next to his breathtaking castle, this home is a true masterpiece—combining elegance, comfort, and a sense of grandeur that is simply unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warmth and generosity, a reflection of James himself—an incredible soul whose kindness and hospitality made our experience even more special. Every detail in the home is thoughtfully curated, from the exquisite decor to the impeccable cleanliness and comfort. The ambiance is both luxurious and inviting, offering the perfect blend of history and modern convenience. Waking up to the stunning surroundings felt like stepping into a fairytale, and every moment spent here was an absolute delight. James’ home is more than just a place to stay—it’s an experience, a retreat, and a privilege. We are already looking forward to returning and cannot recommend it highly enough! Beds are super comfortable.

Barry and Van were great hosts, and very accommodating to our family and pups. We felt right at home, and would definitely stay again.

Our stay was fantastic. This place feels like a home with all the things one needs to be comfortable. The yard and hot tub were great. The bonus was the in-tune piano! Our whole party voiced wishes to stay here again.

This was one of my top AirBnB experiences! I took my family and my in laws to this spot to be close to the Greek Theatre for a concert, but it was such a treat in and of itself! We were super close to great food and a nice part of town, and were less than twenty miles to everything we wanted to see. Took a hike to the Hollywood sign, checked out the Getty Center, and enjoyed the LA scene. We’re from SD, so it was so nice to find a private, lovely part of our sister city. Norvell was an incredible host, very responsive and friendly whenever we had questions. He even left us a gift at check-in! All of the amenities and rooms were as described on the listing, and it was money well spent. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants a nice weekend in LA!

We had a great stay at Hallgrim’s place. It was clean and as pictured in the reviews. The only problem we had was parking. It’s only street parking across from the house and the other houses parked multiple cars in our only spot to park. There is also only one tv in the house which is located in the spare bedroom. Other than that, it was an enjoyable experience. There’s even a squirrel that is came up to the windows every morning to say hi. She must be fed, because she is not afraid of humans. We named her “baby”.

Ari’s place is the best. With so much privacy yet being close to all the cool spots, it was like being in the country with the convenience of the city. Staying here is like being at a long-lost friend’s home. Well equipped, great vibe, very welcoming and cosy.

My daughter and I had a fantastic stay. Everything was as described, and we felt completely at home. The location is perfect - quiet and safe. I enjoyed walking through the neighborhood and checking out all of the beautiful houses. The bungalow was very well-equipped with everything we needed. My only issue (which was only mine) was that cabinets were really high up for me (I’m only 5’0), but wasn’t an issue for my much taller daughter. The patio was also a perfect place to relax and enjoy the beautiful weather we had. We will definitely stay here again when we’re visiting So. Cal.

My first time renting an AirBnB and my first solo trip (well my dog included). The house is adorable from the second you get to the gate. The front yard is beautiful and semi private. Lots of flowers and plants. They have twinkle lights that give a nice ambiance in the evening while sitting outside. I love the style of the interior (which instantly sold me online) They really thought of everything. Everything you need to cook, make coffee, enjoy a glass of wine, and relax. I loved their breakfast nook but my absolute favorite feature was their faux fireplace log under the TV. It was the coolest thing and now I want one lol! The place was super clean and sofa and bed were both comfortable. A home away from home. I definitely plan to come back and highly recommend!

Fit my needs. Comfortable bed and clean bathroom

Just like the pictures, clean and comfortable. In a great location where you can walk to the beach, restaurants, even the grocery store. The hosts were extremely communicative and flexible. Highly recommend!

I’m so glad to find such a lovely home away from home when I visit my daughter’s family in South Pasadena. The cottage is adorable! I love the original features like the wooden floors and push out windows. This cottage is behind the main house, but is surrounded by lovely courtyards. It felt very private. Kitchen was well-equipped and beds were comfy. And waking up to the sound of the rooster on the property was a bonus for this city girl. It’s an easy walk to the little town of South Pasadena (just a few blocks), where there are many restaurants and shops. There’s a fun farmer’s market on Thursday evenings just up the street. I arrived on Thursday, so I was able to pick up some things there for my stay. A grocery store and Trader Joe’s are also within walking distance.

Great unit! Comfortable, convenient and clean. It had everything we could need to enjoy a few days in town. Trader Joe’s is a quick walk around the corner. Owner proactively communicated about street parking rules so we were able to plan accordingly. Great communication throughout. Would definitely recommend and stay in this unit again.

Vinh is a wonderful host, very responsive, great communicator, and helpful! His place is very tasteful, inviting, comfortable, clean, and is in a great location! Loved all the little touches and amenities, he has a facet on his sink for RO water (Reverse Osmosis) , which was great for drinking. I would absolutely recommend Vinh and his place!

This home is an Oasis. Beautiful gourmet kitchen, it’s open, airy and we loved how private and yet open the home and backyard was. Definitely will return. The best hosts!

Convenient and a lovely! We loved being able to relax around the pool in the afternoon.

Enjoyed my stay here, it was very nice and tidy. The full kitchen and fridge were nice and convenient. Location was also good. Would stay here again!

I loved my stay. Jamie was a great host and the cottage was beautiful, everything in perfect condition, super comfortable, plenty of room. Would definitely stay here again and strongly recommend!

Second time we’ve stayed at Charlotte’s and it was fantastic. Our boys loved the pool and wanted to swim every day! Great location that’s both private and walkable, great coffee and restaurants. Runners take note, fantastic location for a great 3 mile loop around Silver Lake reservoir. Will definitely stay here again on another LA trip.

The house was nice and good size for our group. The location was pretty good for what we had planned. We landed on this place specifically because of the pool and hot tub. We wish we had been told the specifics of using them beforehand because we arrived to an ice cold pool & jacuzzi. But after Gevorg finally responded we were told there is a fee to heat everyday, they cant be heated at sametime, and pool takes 8-10 hrs to heat. But once the confusion was cleared up, Gevorg was quick to respond and the pool/jacuzzi was an amazing addition to our trip!!! Gevorg was very kind and welcoming and quick to fix the situation.

Beautiful home, with tons of space and very functional whether you’re a group of adults or have small children. I was able to get in my morning walks. Coffee and bagel shops are within walking distance. Loved our stay! We will be back!

We want to say a huge thank you to these unbelievable hosts. Their house is incredible, they were very fast to respond to all inquiries, we desperately needed a crib and they came over to put one together for us. These are really amazing hosts with beautiful home. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking for an Airbnb in LA! Thank you again!

My girls and I really enjoyed our stay! Very peaceful atmosphere, exactly what we needed & what we were looking for. Only complaints is we couldn’t experience the waterfall (would have made my daughter’s bday even better) & also the pool heater. This prevented us from using the pool at night (water was cold) we would have LOVED using the pool from morning till night to take full advantage of the beautiful pool but like they mentioned, it’s expensive to maintain, so I def understand.
