About the host

Hosted by John Kinney

Host profile image
My parents were in the Navy and also operated their own Bed & Breakfast. My wife and I have built 100 athletic clubs all focused on high quality service so we love hospitality.

Why they chose this property

We love having a quiet neighborhood with direct access to one of the best trailheads in the East Bay. We're close to shops in Montclair, Piedmont, and Berkeley, yet our house feels like we are in the woods.

What makes this property unique

This is a big home with great decks surrounded by trees. Our dog loves the freedom from a fenced yard and she protects us from the wild turkeys.
