hidden retreat

We have had the most relaxing stay here. The house is a hidden treasure surrounded by trees, flowers, and a stream. It is simple and beautiful. The hosts are very responsive and helpful. Highly recommend!

Response from VrboOwner on 22 May, 2024
Thanks for your kind words! The house is indeed near to Highway 24, which we love for the access it gives us both down to the Bay and up into the hills and down Highway 13 for hiking. You can definitely hear the highway when standing in the driveway, but once through the gate and behind the garage, it is much quieter, and even more so inside the house or down by the creek, where we rarely notice it at all.

Graduation

Beautiful home in a great neighborhood. The outdoor patio is a very special spot with a stream flowing by. Loved it. Very peaceful. Kitchen was nicely appointed.

Magical!

We spent a week for our daughter’s Berkeley graduation. The house is gorgeous. Clean and easy to keep clean. Hosts are generous, accommodating and attentive. We will definitely want to return!

Beautiful stay in a beautiful house

Our family stayed over the holidays to meet our newest member, who was born on December 21! The house is great, comfortable and very well supplied with linens, towels, and a super kitchen. We enjoyed communing with the rainbow trout in the brook and exploring the neighborhood on foot. HIghly recommended.

It was certainly an oasis!

We LOVED our stay. The house was gorgeous, clean and well equipped. You don’t feel like you’re in the middle of a big city being surrounded by beautiful trees and greenery. We especially loved the stream where we saw rainbow trout hanging around the entire stay. Short walk to several delicious restaurants. We especially loved Belotti. The food was amazing and the service was top notch. We can’t wait to come back!

Gorgeous Oasis

This rental absolutely lives up to the description and pictures. If you’re looking for a quiet and peaceful escape in a stunning home surrounded by lush greenery then look no further! 10 out of 10 would highly recommend for a solo trip, a couple or small group. Staying on the property alone is a wonderful and relaxing experience. But it’s also very conveniently located to a number of delicious restaurants and shops on College Ave and the Bart station. Karen (owner) and Robin (property manager) were incredible with communication and quick to assist with any questions. Definitely plan to return!

cool california house

Smart architecture — you walk in the front door of this home (which is really near a freeway/college ave) and suddenly feel you are in a remote tree house. You can barely see a neighbor! It’s quiet and pretty and has everything you need. If you are traveling with two kids you might want to bring an air bed (we borrowed from a friend) if they want to share a room- there is a nice sofa bed in the living room though. Property manager is super lovely and helpful. We made a lot of great memories during our three week stay and would definitely stay again.

Great location and wonderful setting!

Everything about this listing turned out to be true to what was advertised. The home was well-maintained and well equipped. Everything was in place and clean when we arrived. The property manager, Patricia, was very responsive, and knew the answers to our questions. But for me, the best part was that the house feels like a treehouse! Lots of skylights to see the large oak trees over the property. The creek running alongside the property is very unique as well! Able to walk to restaurants and shops within 5 to 10 minutes. San Francisco is only 20 minutes away.
