A safe & serene place to stay in the world's entertainment capital, our home on Benedict Canyon Drive offers three very clean & comfortable spaces:
The Private Guest Cottage[see page for remodel info],
Master Suite &
Garden Suitewere each created for visiting artists, but you don't have to be an artist to enjoy the peace and pleasing aesthetics of these suites.

South of Ventura Boulevard, this quiet and friendly niche of Sherman Oaks features only million-dollar-plus homes. A highly desirable neighborhood, it's centrally located, peaceful and safe, offering the best of both city life and suburbia.
One mile north of Mullholland Drive, the property is minutes from NBC, CBS, ABC and Universal Studios as well as countless recording studios. Walk down to "Restaurant Row" for five-star Italian, Mexican, Middle Eastern, Japanese, Kosher, Thai and more. Or walk up to hiking and biking trails in the Santa Monica Mountain Nature Conservancy. Trader Joe's, Ralph's,Whole Foods, Bloomingdales and Macy's are within a mile of the house, not to mention window shopping on the Boulevard.
The Westside, Beverly Hills, UCLA, Cedars Sinai Medical Center and much more are a short drive away. Non-nursing convalescent/post-surgical care availablem, including room service, daily housekeeping, etc.. Please call with any specific needs.

Pinot Bistro offers fabulous traditional french cuisine and an extensive wine list. Lovely atmosphere and service. The only catch is that you can easily pay twice here what you'll pay at Tiramisu, but Pinot is a great place to check out if you're prepared for $25 entrees. Their Sunday menu for "locals" offers three courses for $28... much more manageable.

Cafe Bizou: incredible lobster bisque, etc..
...And Bizen Sushi doesn't have a website, but they do have great fresh sushi in a nice low-key atmosphere; just four blocks away: 13447 Ventura Blvd.

There are two proprietors and no children living in the main house. There are also two very clean, sweet, well-exercised and trained, highly-civilized dogs.
They are quiet and absolutely won't jump up, but instead gently greet visitors and ward off unwelcome intruders.
They also generally follow the two owners everywhere and are not given access to the guest quarters.
In order to minimize stress on these rather chicken-hearted residents, we regret that no additional pets can be accommodated at this time.
