The home was absolutely beautiful, and my family slept comfortably throughout our stay. The host was responsive and available for any minor needs, which made everything easy. The view is truly to die for — highly recommend this stay!
The host was very accessable and responsive to my messages. We arrived from Napa a little early and were allowed to check in early, which we greatly appreciated.The house was very clean, and well-furnished and supplied. And what a view!!

Why they chose this property
I love the centralized location within the bay area and the neighborhood is quiet and friendly with great access to freeways on one side and parks and quiet open spaces on the other.
I can be anywhere in the bay area within a short drive, and the weather is fantastic.
MONTCLAIR neighborhood is amazing.
What makes this property unique
The view and open floor plan attracted me to this house initially. I quickly fell in love with the Oakland Hills for the great weather and proximity to everywhere inn the Bay Area. Oakland is so central in Northen California, so much to see and do and everything is so close.
For example, we’re only about 20 minutes from San Francisco as well as anywhere in Oakland, Berkeley and Emeryville. If you wanna go to the beaches of San Francisco or the North Bay like Marin Sausalito Napa, or San Jose to the heart of the tech world it’s only a little bit further. If you want to explore the wider region, including Yosemite, Lake Tahoe or Mendocino Coast, it’s only a few hours drive.
Within five minutes from the house, there are several great regional parks where you can explore redwoods streams huge Oak and Laurel Bay tree groves.
MONTCLAIR village is a charming little district in Oakland within a five minute drive from the house with great restaurants and easy shopping.
