  • Kim and her family were very accommodating during our stay at the Los Gatos Guesthouse. Although the property is listed with one bathroom, we were able to use the pool bathroom as our second bathroom, which was helpful for a family of four. The patio, pool, and hot tub made our stay, which was primarily to visit Stanford, a real vacation. The dogs are very sweet and kept all entertained.

  • My family stayed at the Los Gatos Guesthouse this summer for 3 nights and loved the atmosphere and place. The house was very clean and quiet. The children loved the quiet grounds and the very obedient dogs. Very central to south San Jose / Almeden and Los Gatos. Thanks!

  • This was our second stay at the MacBeth guest house, this time for an entire month in February & March. The accommodations are great - clean and fully equipped - and the hosts could not be more hospitable. This is an excellent place to stay.

  • Our stay here was perfect. It was so much better than any hotel. We all loved the pool and our son still talks about the trampoline and "Cody's house"(Cody is one of the dogs our son, who is 3, loved to throw the ball for). We had a hard time coming home after our stay here.

  • My son in law, daughter and two grand kids stayed here for a family wedding in September. they had a fabulous time. My grandson loved all the dogs and the pool. It was a mini vacation at a fabulous resort for them.

  • My wife and I stayed a week in the guesthouse in March. The guesthouse exceeded our expectations. It was spotless and very well equipped. The location can't be beat - very close to San Jose, but in the country. We didn't have time to take advantage of all the facilities and the hosts were more than willing to take care of any problems. Highly recommended.

  • I recently stayed at the MacBeth guesthouse for a week( Feb 15-22, 2008). It is as nice or nicer than the pictures on the VRBO website! The dogs are very friendly and the hot tub was great after my 80 mile bicycle rides! It is also convenient to the airport and downtown Los Gatos. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a place to stay that wants something larger and nicer than a hotel room.

  • Linda and I spent a week in October 2007 while visiting our son who lives in Los Gatos. We enjoyed the accommodations very much. Kim and family were very gracious and afforded us all of the privacy we desired. The guesthouse was clean, well appointed and well maintained. We would definitely consider staying again.
