Beautiful and well provisioned

This house was an excellent place to stay for 2 weeks in the bay area. It was tastfully decorated, clean, and well provisioned. The neighborhood was quiet and covieniently located close to our family in Menlo Park and San Carlos. We loved the bell in the courtyard.

Relaxing Get Away

My husband and I had the best time staying here. The house was immaculate and had all the amenities we could have ever wanted. The garden view was especially lovely! It was so nice to be able to enjoy it from the living room and dining room and we even saw rabbits in the backyard! What a treat! We would highly recommend this rental and plan on staying here again in the future.

Beautiful Home Away from Home near Stanford- Amazing Hospitality

Booked this gorgeous abode for a visiting consultant who was coming onsite at Stanford for a 13 night stay. Our guest stressed to us many times that he and his spouse had such a lovely experience as they loved the home and that the hosts were very attentive. Speaking on personal experience with booking, I want to thank Amanda, Kate, and Ted for being such lovely hosts to our guests. Special thank you to Amanda for being so incredibly responsive and taking time to work things out with me when we had to make last minute adjustments to our booking due to my personal error. Highly recommend this accommodation to those looking to be within close proximity of Stanford.
