We had a great time here!

Our group of 10 were very comfortable, the house was clean, and it was such a bonus to have Willow Glen’s shops and restaurants a BLOCK away. The host is welcoming, we will definitely stay again.

We had a wonderful stay at John’s beautiful home in Willow Glen, he was the best host. The location is perfect—just a block off the main Avenue, a short walk to plenty of shops, good eats, and everything you might need close by. We were traveling with grandchildren, and John went above and beyond by providing all the baby amenities we could have asked for. It made our visit so much easier and more comfortable. We will definitely stay here again the next time we’re in town! Highly recommend.
