Superb Location. Sunny 3700Sqf Sanctuary. Trails/Woods/Views. 20min from SF

We had a very nice stay at this home, we enjoyed it very much :). The location was perfect, and the host was very kind and welcoming. Thank you!

A perfect spot to spend a weekend with your family! A spacious and welcoming home with spectacular views, where you feel like you at a retreat in the woods, but it is close to everything Berkeley and Oakland have to offer.

Clean and quite spacious. Fully equipped. Good Wi-Fi. Very pleasant and responsive owner. The 3 of us had a very nice Christmas Eve and day here. Convenient to commercial needs. No major problems at all. One minor suggestion: Master bedroom would benefit from a place to store and hang clothes.

Nice hikes right across the street and a short drive to grocery and some nice restaurants. Properly was clean, quiet, and in good working order, host was responsive and helpful. A small group of us were traveling to meet with colleagues for work and this was a great property for that.

We spent an early Thanksgiving with family in Oakland and this house was perfect for our needs. The kitchen is a chef’s dream, with plenty of counter space and a huge open space for family to gather. The deck outside allowed us to gather family including an immune compromised individual in a safe beautiful setting. Our host was excellent and can’t think of a single complaint if I tried! Thank you so much!!

This is our go-to now for our visits to Oakland. Very clean and beautiful.

The property was immaculate and the views were amazing. The hiking trails in the forest were incredible as well. Highly recommend.

Great kitchen and den area, allowing everyone to join in the fun while socially distancing with masks. Outdoor patio worked well for meals, the view of the bay at sunset was fabulous. Felt welcomed with fresh flowers, wonderful host!

We hosted 4 of our remote team members overnight here, and used the main spaces for our team offsite. The space has good flow and lots of space for a group of about 18 (our size). The outdoor patio made for a great space for socializing and taking breaks. This was great for our easygoing crowd, but the wifi sometimes lagged, we had to bring in our own coffee pot because there were only french presses, and there wasn't AC on what happened to be a pretty warm week in Oakland. All of these were easy to accommodate and the owners were very responsive and solution-oriented as well. Would recommend for a team, or for a luxurious weekend outing for friends!

Came for the weekend for a family memorial. First impression was that this house appears to be a full time residence for a family with two young children and when they get a renter they vacate for the weekend. I believe that this should be disclosed in the description of the property. There was absolutely NO closet space for our 11adults and no dressers. They do not provide the bed arrangements in the description but there was 1 real king bed and 1 real queen. The other 2 queens were blow up mattresses and a 1 futon. The refrigerator had 3 open shelves and the rest was full of their food. NO screens on the windows and the A/C has been disconnected. When I asked the owner about it she said to leave the windows open. 7 of the 11 got mosquito bites. The plumbing fixtures were loose throughout the house and one of the three showers was unable to be used because the fixture kept falling off. I notified the owner and she said all the plumbing fixtures are due to be fixed the following Tuesday. And sorry for the inconvenience. The owner was easy to get ahold of and the house was clean. But overall we were all disappointed. I think for the amount charged for a night we should at least have real beds to sleep in, closets for our clothes, screens or A/C and a coffee maker! (even though they did disclose that there is NO coffee maker).
