Overview

Shabby Chic Rose Cottage is a clean, beautifully renovated two-bedroom cottage in the historic foothill community of Sierra Madre in Los Angeles County. Set on a quiet residential street, it’s designed as a light, airy stay with comfortable furnishings and original wood floors. It’s positioned just a few miles from the famous Rose Parade route.

Home layout & sleeping

The cottage is a two-bedroom house with a maximum occupancy of 6 guests. In addition to the bedrooms, there is a queen sofa bed (with topper) for two extra guests; extra pillows and blankets are kept in the front bedroom closet. Guests use a door code for self check-in, with hosts next door and available if needed.

This is a smoke-free, kid-friendly home with air conditioning and heating, plus a fireplace and patio. The kitchen setup includes an oven/stove and microwave, and practical extras include a washer and ironing board. Cable TV, free Wi-Fi, and free parking are provided.

Outdoor space & neighborhood setting

Guests have an enclosed, newly landscaped private front and back yard with a picket fence and roses. The setting is residential and quiet, with coffee shops and restaurants in walking distance. Trash handling is managed with specific bins, with the black bin stored in the garage due to bears.

Best for

This cottage suits travelers who want a quiet Sierra Madre base with the feel of a private home—especially those who value a renovated, well-equipped two-bedroom space with a full kitchen, washer, and an enclosed yard. It’s also a strong pick for guests visiting the surrounding area (including the Rose Parade route a few miles away) who prefer easy self check-in plus nearby, on-hand hosts.

Travel tips

Note property rules: no large parties or events, no visitors after 11 pm, and no smoking/vaping/drug use on the property.
