Quiet Cottage on the Lane Close to SF, Parks, Redwoods, Zoo, BART and the Ferry!

Take it easy at this unique and tranquil getaway. Our 850 sq. ft. cozy cottage is located on a one lane dead end street where there is no traffic and is very safe! It is peaceful and quiet save for our 11 chickens which roam the yard from 8:30 am to 7:00 pm. Located close to SF, the Montclair shopping district, Chabot Space Center, the Redwoods of Joaquin Miller Park, Oakland Zoo, any many other wonderful attractions (check out Canyon). The cottage is a cozy 850 sq. ft. There is WiFi and NO TV, a comfortable Queen Bed and a small work area if needed. The kitchen is hopefully equipped with everything you'll need and the pantry has misc. food items for your use. We live in the home right next door if anything additional is needed or if you have any questions regarding your stay. Recommendations are freely given! You'll enjoy your morning coffee on the deck as a peaceful way to start your day!

Cute place, beautiful neighborhood!
I stayed in Oakland for work, and wanted a day to just explore the city. I stayed at Tom's place and it was great. The house itself is very cute, and had all that i needed. I was able to get in and out of the house with ease, and the garden and the chickens on the property were a lovely part of the experience as well. The neighborhood is very nice, with absolutely stunning gardens! I walked to a nearby coffee shop (Mokha ~ *highly* recommend!) and had a delightful time looking at all of the plantings. The only issue was that sometimes the Uber/Lyft drivers really struggled to get out of the one way street that the house was on. But that is not anything to do with the house or the host. I would recommend this place for sure!
