This house was a terrific choice for our family. It's in a great location on a quiet street but near a trolley line and a bus line if you need public transportation. It's a 15-minute walk to the beach. A ten-minute walk gets you to an entrance to Golden Gate Park. There are nice restaurants, bakeries, coffee shops, ice cream shops, and other amenities in the neighborhood. We roamed a little wider and found it easy to get to places like the Marina and Muir Woods by car.
We were seven adults and three children five and younger. There were plenty of beds and bedrooms. The kitchen is spectacular, although we used it mainly for breakfast. The house occupies three floors, with a full bath on each floor and an additional half-bath on the main floor. The common areas are roomy enough that we could all spend time together comfortably, while there are plenty of private spaces when family members need quiet time.
Another plus is that the house faces a greenway that lies between the street and the busy thoroughfare that parallels it. That means that there is plenty of parking if the visitor needs it. Few streets in San Francisco offer this feature. The noise from the busy street beyond the greenway does not intrude.
The owners are friendly and helpful. They went above and beyond to ensure that our visit went well.
The house is elegant and luxurious but also warm, comfortable, and welcoming. This is by no means an inexpensive rental but even at this price, it provides exceptional value for the money. For us, it was a great place to stay for a big family celebration.
