About the Space

One of the extremely rare private backyard gardens on Malibou Lake. Nestled in the Santa Monica Mountains, this lake house location is so private that even your sound person will be happy with how quiet it is! Close enough to the city to be convenient for cast and crew. And yes, the 1955 Lyman wood boat is included in the price! The yard has to be seen to be believed. Fenced on two sides, with a lake on the third side, it is completely private. Xeriscaped with lush, beautiful bushes that flower by season. Large, old trees encase the stone walkway down to the private wood dock as you pass the fountain. The dock is large enough for production setup, and uniquely crafted of wood, concrete and rock around the perimeter. Direct sunlight several hours per day at peak summer, a wonderful, diffused light daylong as the sun arcs south behind the trees. This lake location is upscale and private, perfect for romance, comedy and general Americana.. anything that is set at a lakehouse or lakefront lakeside. The house can be used as a mountain cabin (not just locally, a crew has used it for a Canada cabin because of the foliage) or modern boho chic. Whether you need waterfront (water front) or in house, mountain views or private Malibu garden, this location will not disappoint. We have a full private green room for makeup and talent, a z-rack for wardrobe and great lighting for hair and makeup. IMPORTANT NOTE: The governing body of the lake, Malibou Lake Mountain Club, currently requires a site rep from the club to be present at all production shoots, regardless of the size. The fee for this site rep is $500 per day and must be paid directly to the club (it is not included in our fee). The club requires at least 48 hours to arrange this, please plan accordingly. This is a lake-wide rule, so if you see any other listings at Malibou Lake that do not mention this, be aware that you will still need to pay it, separately, before production. Thanks for your understanding.

    Wonderful location to use for production! Matt was incredibly accommodating and fully understanding about whatever production needs might be. He goes above and beyond to make sure the shoot is as great as it can be! On the day we were shooting we had issues with noise due to construction happening around the lake, and Matt was able to text the neighbors and coordinate a period of silence for us to get the audio we needed. He was also generous enough to tow/pull one of our actors in the wooden boat with his kayak for certain shots!! Highly recommend renting this location!
