A beautiful house in a stunning location

My husband and I, along with our son and his partner spent 8 fabulous days in this stunning house. This was the location of the final leg of our Californian adventure. The facilities and special views made it an especially enjoyable experience. The hosts were incredibly thoughtful and made us feel very welcome. It was certainly home from home and left us with some fantastic memories. We would definitely recommend this property to anyone wanting a base for exploring San Francisco and the surrounding area.

Very nice place

We were in the Bay area for the Rugby 7's world cup, and a day trip to the wine country. The location of the house was perfect, very short drive to Sonoma and very quick to get into the City. The house itself was wonderful, great views, very nice decks and outdoor areas, everything you need. I particularly enjoyed the hiking in the forest just above the house, immediately adjacent. Great views, beautiful place. Would gladly stay there again.

About the host

Your host

Steve and I both migrated to the Bay Area from the East Coast. We love the outdoorsy lifestyle of Northern California. Our favorite things are cooking, playing, having people over, traveling and just being grateful for life. Our dog Jackson is a very loved member of our family too.

Why they chose this property

Our home is pretty special to us. The views and the light it receives make it a happy place to be every day. When you get up and see a different view of the hills or downtown every morning, you can't help but feel good about the day.
