Great stay in Oakland
Our family had a great stay in Oakland. The property was comfortable and functional and had an amazing view. Ted was a responsive host. Just a five minute drive to trailheads for a network of very nice trails in the nearby regional park and a five minute drive in the other direction to restaurants and grocery store.

Special place for a family gathering.
The views are everything! I enjoyed hanging out on the deck visiting with family so much. This is great place to gather with friends and family. The kitchen was well equipped and roomy enough for more than one cook. It also seems to be set up for dogs though we did not bring pets.

Great stay!
First off the picture of the view in the listing does not do it justice. The owner was great and receptive to short notice requests. We had a couple small hiccups in our stay and he was quick to respond and took care of the issues. I can’t possibly recommend this property enough! We hope to stay again in the fall.

Good leaser. Friendly, helpful and easy to reach. The Oakland hills views from the house are terrific (maybe the best in the Bay Area) and the home is comfortable, and no great number of stairs to climb. Parking is a two car garage at the living level so loading and unloading luggage is easy. We'd love to come back, god willing.

Excellent host and property
The house has one of the most beautiful views of the entire Bay Area and the deck and top level are built to take advantage of the view; it's lovely. This worked well for our family as I was able to stay in the upstairs bed/bath and the adults and two children were accommodated in the downstairs beds/bath. The host is very good with communication and the property is outfitted very comfortably.
