Guest House in the Woods

MaryRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Such a serene location! Nestled amongst the trees, this Airbnb will have you feeling like you’re a world away without being far from amenities at all. My husband and I enjoy staying here tremendously. The place was spotless and has everything you could need for a comfortable stay. Lea was one of the friendliest hosts I’ve ever come across and made us feel warm and welcomed. Can’t wait to visit again!

Very quiet and peaceful setting for relaxation and reading and writing. Easy walking to a lot of good restaurants and public transport. Rainbow and Zan were easy to communicate with and facilitated an early check in which was helpful. Would stay here again!

Secluded luxury cottage & hot tub

ClaudiaRating, 5 starstoday
We had a wonderful stay at the cottage! The garden is full of flowers and eucalyptus trees, and the spa is peaceful and private. The space is bright, very clean, and has all the amenities you could need. The bed was super comfortable and the comforter nice and warm. We especially loved the owner’s artwork displayed throughout the cottage—it adds such a personal touch. The hosts were incredibly responsive and kind. Tilden Park is just 10 minutes away and perfect for nature walks. We really enjoyed our time here and would absolutely come back!

The Shed in Vallecito

CynthiaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Bev and Rod are both exceptionally friendly and accomodating hosts. I had brought along a to-go dinner and bottle of wine; then it turned out that when I arrived Rod was at the BBQ making their dinner. So I was able to enjoy wonderful company with my evening meal - on their beautifully paved open patio surrounded by an amazing garden, while having someone with whom to share a glass or two of wine. The acommodations were also impressive, in what I learned is a former town bakery. My room for the night, its little kitchenette, and the bathroom, are without question professionally finished by a master craftsman, and decorated in an interesting artistic and unique welcoming manner. The little table in the bay window with a log hewn bench was especially fun. And a delightful side patio with a second private exit expanded their property's gardens to wonderfully enhance my experience staying here. Overall, I could not have wanted for a nicer stay.

Carmel Rustic Cabin Like a Treehouse + Dog

ValerieRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Beautifully set cabin in the woods, removed from the bustle of Ocean Avenue while only a 5-minute drive away from it. Tom was an excellent host who made us feel at home and made himself available for recommendations or a friendly chat on our way out the door. Highly recommend!

Nature's Window

AndreaRating, 5 stars5 days ago
I could literally cry with how special John’s place is. We were already staying in Oakhurst and wanted to extend our stay to one more day. We were lucky enough to find John’s home. John welcomed us and made us feel right at home. The house was cute, quaint and nicely decorated. It’s also very private with the beautiful forest in the backyard. We had the blessing to see a few bears in their natural habitat, along with a mama duck and her babies, different species of birds, a creek and some unique trees. John gave us a tour of the home and its surroundings and also shared some cool stories. We would highly recommend this home to anyone and we already can’t wait to stay again. Thanks John for hosting my boyfriend and I.

California Modern Studio with Mountain View & Deck

LisaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Just book it! The view is stunning, the apartment is super designy, feels light and open and was incredibly clean. We watched the wildlife and some nice sun downer in front of the big windows. It’s quiet but near the center of Three Rivers, we preferred to just stay in because we loved the view so much. Also the perfect start to our day trip to Sequoia National Parc. We just felt like home immediately. 5/5 stars well deserved.

Dragoon Gulch Retreat

DavidRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We really enjoyed our stay. Debbe and Chet's place is very private and quiet which you wouldn't get if you stayed in a hotel. Everything you need is in the room, we really love our morning coffee so the Keurig machine was great! The room was spotless, very clean. Nice that it's close to town, enjoyed the Saturday morning Farmer's market, especially the bakery vendor. Will certainly try to come back and stay here again.

My wife and I recently stayed at HiC and Jeff’s charming unit. The thoughtful details made our stay special, with an incredibly comfortable bed for a great night's sleep. All the amenities, local recommendations, and small touches ensured a relaxing getaway. The beautiful outdoor areas among the redwood trees provided a peaceful retreat to unwind. HiC was welcoming and attentive, making our stay exceptional. We would definitely return to this lovely unit and recommend it for anyone seeking a serene escape in nature!

2 story large bedroom home with pool.

AshleighRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This was the perfect stay for us - we needed a home base to go out and visit family, but still be able to come back and take care of ourselves, cook, relax, etc. Even when we weren’t visiting, staying here, swimming and playing was a great vacation away from home - but all in the safety and comfort of a familiar neighborhood. We will definitely stay here again!

Private unit close to Santa Clara University

ShoaibRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This is our first Airbnb experience and we were glad we chose this place for our first stay. Rahil was a very-very responsive and kind host. We had a tiny bit of trouble first entering the property due to the locking system. I messaged Rahil and he quickly responded and fixed the lock and we were good to go for the rest of our stay. The place was spotless and very clean when we first entered. It is like having your own mini house with all the amenities you need even for a long stay. Everything was professional, instructions were clear, bed and sofa bed were comfortable. The area is super nice and private. It is like a 5 minute drive to Santana Row, Valley Fair Mall, and multiple restaurants. I had no problem keeping my car parked in front of the property and never felt like it was going to be a problem. Overall I would definitely recommend staying at this Airbnb and you are in good hands with Rahil.

Spacious mountain retreat

DrewRating, 5 stars4 days ago
Kassandra & Andy are wonderful hosts! We came to stay over a long weekend in a peaceful and tranquil environment, and their Airbnb and ranch property was absolutely incredible. It's surrounded by acres of nature so you can really sink in, disconnect, and relax. My favorite part of the experience was the horseback riding lesson and trail ride with Kassandra (paid separately). It was so much fun! Kassandra is a great teacher and I felt very safe despite very few experiences around horses before this. The value for the Airbnb + horseback riding is fantastic. I loved staying here and I very much hope to come back again. Thank you!
