G & M #2 Livermore Wine/ E-Bike Getaway (pets ok)

MareyRating, 5 stars4 months ago
This was our second stay here. Our daughter's family lives in the neighborhood and this is the perfect location for us to stay while visiting. It is quiet, comfortable and just what we need. The yard is very cute and we love to look at the animals with our grandchildren. We lucked out and saw the planets aligned from the driveway on the 25th, as it is dark enough to view the stars without city lights. Don and Lori are great hosts- there are treats and fresh eggs in the fridge, and everything we needed was right there. We will be back.

Luxury Cottage in Garden & Jacuzzi under stars

LisaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
OMG, I wanted to stay like, forever! This place is so nicely decorated and charming! I loved the flowers and yard. Walking around the neighborhood was lovely. It was just beautiful. The hot tub was a nice added treat. I have a favorite Jewelry designer in Berkley called Hotcakes/Favor that I got to visit and shop. There are so many places to explore in the area. I definitely want to come back.

Mara is a great host, charming and thorough.........a great combination for us! Her detailed instructions and "hands-off" thereafter approach was perfect for us.

Mosswood Cottage | Private | Off-Street Parking

CeciliaRating, 5 stars6 days ago
Very nice place ! Parking was pretty easy to find outside if you have more than one car and I’d recommend backing in to the parking spot inside if you have a larger vehicle ! Pretty close to most stores and we didn’t have any issues will stay there again !

Event Party Gathering Farm House Mountain Views

SaraRating, 5 stars9 months ago
We had a wonderful time at the ranch—the location was beautiful, and the unit was spacious. There was hot water and strong WiFi. Dogs on the property were friendly and adorable. However, the cleanliness of the unit could use some improvement. It would benefit from a professional deep cleaning to really match the quality of the overall experience. Despite this, we still enjoyed our stay and would consider returning.

A Private Retreat in Nature - Bluebird Day Cottage

ErinRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This sweet little artist cottage was just perfect. Mindy has put a lot of effort and energy in making sure there are so many things available for her guests: Kitchen Staples, along with different kinds of coffee and coffee makers. There were fresh eggs and beautiful chocolates, and so much more which made our stay extra special. The cottage is surrounded by a small yard and lovely trees. There is a dedicated parking spot, which was so nice. Very quiet, clean, and the furnishings are just beautiful. Will definitely book again. Thank you for being an exceptional host!

Private 1 bedroom garden cottage near Lake Merritt

GerardRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Great location, very walkable to the main area on Grand Ave and Lake Merritt. It’s a small space but had everything I needed as a solo traveler. Jintang has great communication and responds almost immediately to any questions. Everything from booking to check out was extremely easy and straightforward. Great place to stay, would definitely recommend booking with Jintang.

Peaceful Sanctuary in the Redwoods

DiannaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Thank you Tamara for sharing your lovely home. We had a great time in the area and your house was the perfect place to return to after a long day at the beach or hiking in the local redwoods. The beds were comfortable with plenty of linens and blankets. The kitchen was well stocked and we enjoyed barbecuing for dinner while enjoying the great view from the backyard deck. We would definitely recommend your house and the area to others!

Bean Hollow West Cottage

MonicaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
The pond house was so relaxing! Close the costal redwoods and tide pools, this cottage is in prime nature loving location. The cottage is on the same property as the owners yet still felt incredibly private. Our toddler loved exploring the back yard and I enjoyed cooking in the fully stocked kitchen. The view was spectacular. Hoping to be back again!

Oakland. Super Location 2bdrm. Parking, Walk 2BART

KayRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
It was an easy and comfortable place to settle into. Great bed, easy to use thermostat, lots of drawers and closet space. It has two nice decks to sit outside but we didn't use them much because the weather was pretty cold. I guess the weather is the only thing we can complain about! We enjoyed coffee and delicious pastries at the little cafe around the corner. And we had a short walk to see our son and grandchildren. A great place for us and we'd like to stay there again.

Bright & Beautiful Cottage

AlysaRating, 5 stars3 months ago
I literally couldn’t have asked for more. They were so responsive and helpful with anything we may need. I stayed here for a month for surgery and didn’t want to leave when the month was over. The tiny house was clean and exactly what I wanted and needed for my recovery. Close to everything I needed and wanted to get to. All the light and fresh air you can ask for. Recommendations for food and stores. Visits from their amazing dog!! I wouldn’t change a thing! What an amazing host, family, city, and tiny home. I will definitely be back.

Beach Cottage Shelter Here

JennyRating, 5 stars8 months ago
The house was clean and comfortable in an impossible-to-beat location. Plenty of nearby options for food, shopping, and endless oceanside hikes. The kitchen was well stocked for all of your cooking needs. A few basics were missed such as a delay in check in, due to key code not shared, and mysteriously few bottles of hand soap, but nothing we couldn’t work around. We would stay here again!

Private Garden Cottage behind lovely Victorian

TinaRating, 5 stars2 days ago
This is a great place to stay if you are thinking to travel to SF. The home is in a very safe neighborhood. The home is tucked away behind the hosts property which makes you feel even more safe. Multiple bus stops near the home. Will stay here again for sure when we come back! Very communicative host as well!

AzeaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
The house(s) were extremely clean, with toys and books and games for our kids. I didn't realize it was two houses but it ended up working out very well for us. Our youngest son was so in love with the goats, it was the first thing he asked for in the morning! We will definitely stay here again!

Another great stay in this amazing cottage in Noe Valley! This is the place to truly relax and have time for yourself in between your busy SF travels! You are in the best neighborhood that is within walking distance to all Noe Valley and the Mission have to offer! Sebastian and his family have made an amazing space!
