Located on the lower western slopes of Twin Peaks, this impeccably appointed West Portal/Parkside home equally serves the first time visitor and the seasoned San Francisco traveler. Public city transportation is literally at your doorstep ready to take you north to Golden Gate Park and the Golden Gate, west to Ocean Beach and the Cliff House, east to Downtown/Market Street and the lateral areas of Castro, Mission Dolores, Pacific Heights, Hayes Valley, City Center, Nob Hill, Chinatown, the Embarcadero, SOMA, Fisherman’s Wharf, etc.

Should your trip include an automobile, your access to east-west and north-south arterials is easy. Whether you intend to visit Point Reyes, the wineries of Napa-Sonoma, Half Moon Bay, Carmel/Big Sur, or Berkeley and East Bay sites there is no need to struggle with a labyrinth of streets before reaching the appropriate highway/freeway.

This home permits the traveler to return from their excursions and truly rest while taking in a full view of the Pacific Ocean from the living and dining rooms (telescope included). The sunsets are magnificent; should the famous fog creep in and up the slope, you will experience a true San Francisco phenomena. No need to plan deeply regarding where to eat.

One of the finest butcher shops is located 100 yards away as is the local fruit , vegetable store and premiere wine shop. The kitchen is fully equipped but you also benefit from the tens of excellent restaurants situated in the West Portal Tunnel area, only a 6 minute walk away!

The nearby Taraval corridor is home to some family style eateries. Both locations are within walking distance (in a safe and secure neighborhood environment). On-site parking into private enclosed garage with electric garage door opener and full laundry facilities at your home-away-from-home add to a stress-free holiday. The street car goes right by the house, so there is some rumbling during the day, but quiet at night.

  • We rented the West Portal house for a long weekend and absolutely loved it! The views were incredible, the house was cozy and spotless and the beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed for a group of 8. Plus it is within walking distance of West Portal...a quaint part of San Francisco with cute shops and restaurants (a tip: try Que Syrah for wine and Roti for Indian Food). Thank you, we're looking forward to coming back again!

  • We rented this home for a 3-day weekend and had a wonderful time. The owners are great -- they are responsive, flexible and super nice. West Portal is a nice neighborhood -- a bit off the beaten path for most tourists, but we prefer staying in an area that's more a genuine neighborhood. We took advantage of the spacious garage for one day by renting a car but did fine the rest of the weekend without. The Muni train stops right outside and it's a quick ride to downtown. There's also easy buses north to Golden Gate Park and south to the airport. Lots of restaurants w/in walking distance and a market one block away, a supermarket one more block. We had 5 adults and one toddler -- the 3 bedrooms are spacious (plenty of room for a crib) and comfortable. Lovely views west towards the ocean and kitchen was quite well-equipped. The decor is quite nice, but definitely 70s era (for better or worse) -- the whole West Portal area was built later so don't expect an old Victorian house. The one downside of the handy trains is that the whole house rattles as they go by (particularly the longer trains during the day). Still, there's fewer trains in the evening (and none overnight) so it didn't bother us. Recommended!

  • We stayed at this property for a weekend and it was exceptional! Fantastic views, excellent space and very comfy beds (thank you down comforters!!). Plus, its proximity to public transit stops, grocery stores, and West Portal make for easy access to the whole city. Definitely recommended over any hotel.

  • This was an excellent place. The location was perfect (multiple transportation spots close), very safe. The house was spectacular, clean, and accomodating. The beds were very comfortable and clean. The house accomodated 9 people very comfortably. The owners are very good people, reliable, and trustworthy. We would definitely stay here again.
