Check-out instructions
The host requires you to complete the following before checking out:
Load and start the dishwasher
Remove personal items
I am usually around when you leave, so ok to leave cottage unlocked with keys inside. I appreciate knowing the approximate time you are leaving, and getting a text when you are out.
If you are uncertain about what items can be recycled, please leave them in the metal bins in the kitchen. I'm happy to sort them out.
Have a good trip home!

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Patty Reidenbach
Recently retired L&D RN. Born in San Francisco and raised in Berkeley (next door to this location). Two sets of my great-great-grandparents came in the gold rush, and I help preserve my great-parents house, which is an Oakland landmark.
Why they chose this property
Berkeley combines a world-class university, a lively history of social change, great beauty, a temperate climate, restaurants of every kind and and a wide selection of cultural events. It spoiled me for living anywhere else ( though I did try).
What makes this property unique
I built this cottage with myself in mind, and I plan to live there when I'm older. I made sure it felt spacious despite its small size, and had lots of interesting details.
