The private backyard is large enough for outdoor dining. Depending onthe time of year, you can help yourself to fresh oranges or loquots, from our fruit trees.

Our home is a short 3 block walk to downtown Mountain View's Castro St with hundreds of restaurants of every nationality. We're also a short walk to the Steven's Creek Trail, as well as CalTrain (a Baby Bullet train stop to San Francisco and San Jose) and Light Rail. Close to highways CA85, US-101, CA237 and I-280 (although you can't see or hear any of them). Close to Google, LinkedIn, Microsoft, Facebook, Apple, and many other high-tech companies. Less than 6 miles to Stanford University and Stanford Hospital and less than 2 miles to El Camino Hospital.

Although close to so many things, this home is still on a very quite residential street. We know because we live right next door to this listing. If you're doing anything that may create excessive noise or any problems for the neighbors, then we're confident this is not the listing for you. Thanks for understanding.

If you have any issues with check-in and check-out times or any special requests for your arrival, please just let us know. Some friends from the East Coast cannot start a day without Dunkin' Donuts coffee. Not just any coffee, it has to be their brand. Caf or Decaf Soy milk or Half-n-half If you have a request, just let us know and we'll do our best to accommodate you.

We look forward to hearing from you, and we hope you'll decide right now to at least reach out to us with an inquiry.

With the summer demand in downtown Mountain View, we usually rent this home to one Guest for the full 3 months of Jun/Jul/Aug. So PLEASE do not make a reservation request for that period for any shorter than 2 months. You can feel free to send us an inquiry and we can update you, but PLEASE do not send an actual reservation.

-Anne and Mike

    We spent one night but had an amazing time. The kids played board games and enjoyed the white board as well. Had a chance to unplug and recharge our batteries. We walked to Castro St, full of amazing restaurants and sweets for everyone! Home was clean and charming.

    Our host was very response and helpful with questions we had about the home and the area. The Property is in a neighborhood with many lovely sidewalk streets and is close to Castro Street (many restaurants). Highly recommend for a Mountain View visit.

    This sweet house was perfect for our stay in Mountain View. It had charm, comfy beds, a well equipped kitchen, was located on a lovely street in a lovely neighborhood, and walking distance to a lively street (Castro street) with shops and yummy restaurants. On top of that communication with the owners was so great and timely… plus they took care to have the little things in place that made you feel welcome… for one, nice towels hung and ready for use… just like you would have for guests in your home… I was also delighted that the TV worked easily, without a lot of study and effort :)) We look forward to staying here again when we are in the area :)

    This property has great walkability to restaurants, bars, drug stores and more. The accommodations are simple but adequate for a renter needing a central “home-base” in the area.

    We had a great experience renting from Mike (and Anne) for an overnight with friends after seeing a show at Shoreline. The home is small with basic amenities, but is cute and clean with a lovely yard in a great neighborhood. Mike was easy to communicate with, flexible with our arrival and departure time, and welcomed us when we arrived. Highly recommend!
