Close to Park - Lovely Host

Sharon was very helpful and looked out for us. She checked in to make sure we were doing well and enjoying our stay. The house is very comfortable and a short walk to Golden Gate Park, shops, and restaurants.

Perfection in every way

My family stayed here on our California coast trip (kids ages 11, 15 and 17), and this eclectic, beautiful, clean, easy to navigate home was perfection. It is exceptionally clean and a PERFECT location in a cool neighborhood. The check in and our process was seamless. Highly recommend! And the piano was a beautiful bonus. The couches in the living room were so comfortable we now want to buy them for our house.

Elegant stay in SF

The home is gorgeous. I found the temperature to be too cold, but my husband was happy. Generous offerings in kitchen and bath. We would stay again—I just might bring more layers.

Family Spring Break - 2025

Traveled out to see our daughter who goes to school nearby for her spring break. The location is great - so near the park, 3 minute walk. The tennis courts are a 25 minute stroll, the ocean about the same. It was great having a full kitchen - all the needed appliances plus some, organized and easy to find. The patio is where I got most of my work done - peaceful. One note - the front of the home is on 19th Ave/ Highway 1 - if you are troubled by traffic noise - not the right fit. Internet - TV's - streaming - all worked well. Awesome having the bedrooms upstairs too - able to find peace when needed!

Perfect stay …

Our stay in this lovely home was just perfect for the 4 of us. We loved being able to park the car and be within walking distance of Golden Gate Park, many restaurants and Land’s End for a sunset hike. We had everything we needed, the beds were very comfortable and so was the living area. The owner provided all information we needed in advance and was responsive to texts also. We would definitely stay here again.

Great spot in the Sunset District

Spent a great weekend at this spectacular home in the avenues of San Francisco. It's a vintage building with a lot of charm that has been updated with a real flair. Spacious, well furnished, lots of room to hang out and even a sizable backyard with patio furniture. The location is great, right in the heart of the Sunset District, literally a few steps from Golden Gate Park and innumerable shops and restaurants.

Great location, eclectic home

Great location, comfortable, and great communication with property owner. However, the persistent smell of cigarette smoke in a non-smoking unit was a serious problem that the owner says will be addressed.

Thank you for sharing your home with us. It was very cozy. Didn’t feel like a rental. It felt like a home with all the home furnishings and things that are found in one’s home. It was a lovely place with a great location, clean and tidy everything we could want. We will come back again.

Really terrific!

The location was so perfect for us. The driveway was a requirement. The house had all the amenities needed, and was so close to the laundromat, restaurants, Muni stops, etc. It was just fun. The obvious care that went into restoring the house and then filling it with period pieces was also not lost on us. The back yard for the dog was also really nice to have. It was so easy to talk with the team on anything we needed, and we felt well prepared before we arrived.

Beautifully Convenient

This was one of those places where the pictures don’t do it justice - it was absolutely gorgeous! It was also immaculately clean, and full of amenities. The property owners were very courteous and responsive. The only heads-up I would give is that the house sits on a very busy highway - basically the 101, so the traffic noise might bother some at night. However, there is a lovely back bedroom where the noise can be totally blocked out if it’s a problem. The house is super convenient to a lot of tourist activities and restaurants, and was one of the prettiest places we’ve stayed in so far. Thank you so much!

Great house to visit SF and surroundings

My family and I came to San Francisco for a reunion and some quick touring. This house had enough space for all 7 of us (the boys didn't mind sleeping on the couches), was conveniently located next to Golden Gate Park, 6 miles away from the Presidio and Wharf areas, and far enough away that driving south to San Carlos and San Jose were no hassle. The house was beautiful, the neighborhood was great - we ate at Lomo Libre and Hole in the Wall Pizza across the street. The only minor issue was that while this house was smoke-free, it seems like the adjacent house had smoker(s) and the smell would waft in occasionally. Not a big deal, but if anyone is really trying to avoid smoke, that's a thing. Next time we visit San Francisco I am definitely looking to stay here!

Stay vacation.

My friend was in town, and my place is really small so I decided to rent this fabulous house. We are both born and raised in big houses with big kitchens and a place to sit outside to eat. We had breakfast on the balcony and the kitchen was just right, my friend wanted an induction stove so that is what we got. The stove top is an induction stove and it’s pretty nice. We had everything that we needed plus some and really enjoyed our stay. There is one parking space and it is right off of a very busy street. We could not hear the traffic downstairs while watching TV. The only time it was a little noisy. It was the upstairs bedroom facing the street. But we sleep pretty well so it wasn’t a problem. The back bedroom facing the yard was very nice. The noise was really not an issue unless you have a hard time falling asleep and everything else was just perfect. Very clean and very nice. I will rent there again if I had a question I just texted the support in the answered right away. That was super nice to know that I had help with information I needed.

Disliked: Communication

Communicate with the owner not the manager

I loved staying here. The house was fully stocked with amenities and antiques. It was absolutely beautiful. It is on a main street so it gets heavy traffic noise. This is a 200 yr old home so it isn't well insulated from sound or cold weather. We did have to run the mini split and the individually adjusted baseboard heaters in the bedrooms upstairs. I would recommend staying here but communicate directly with the home owner. Communicating with the property manager was useless. They have automated responses for every email you send. They take a long time to respond, sometimes days, and when you do replay to that response you get another autoreply, the same you got before. Once I was in touch with the property owner it went very smoothly. He promptly addressed any issue and was very accommodating. He communicated quickly and clearly. Communicate with him, Not RedAwning.

Absolutely Perfect!

We stay with VRBOs often, but this one really takes the cake. The location was unbelievable - Just half a block from the south entrance of Golden Gate Park! We walked the 2 miles through the park to the beach every day, and it was my favorite part about the trip. Walking a block south got us on the Muni bus stop and train. We could get to anywhere from here extremely easily. There is a Starbucks across the street! And world famous restaurants within two blocks (i.e. King of Noodles). As well as 24 hour convenient stores and bodegas on the corner. We did travel all over the city, but you could easily stay in this house and go to the park and eat amazing food for every meal. We used the kitchen though! Whole Foods was just a short N Judah Muni ride away. The house had everything we needed to make meals at home. I was surprised to find a dishwasher as I had somehow missed it in the description. It was such a nice surprise! There is no washer and dryer, but the closest laundromat is 2 blocks away on Irving. It was easy to get to and they have super washers, so the whole experience was over in 45 minutes. The house was so tidy and clean. There are notes around the house for anything you need, but I also felt like the property managers provided really good information well in advance, so everything was covered long before we even arrived. Two things that really mattered to us were the driveway and the back yard. Our car was completely safe and having a place to park made it so easy. The backyard was great for the dog. It's entirely fenced in, so no worrying about an escaping dog. The furniture was all very beautiful and comfortable. The beds were especially comfortable. The water was hot with good pressure and the upstairs bathroom has a full cabinet for storing your toiletries. In short, this was just a delightful place to call home for 9 days and the perfect home base for exploring the city and the Golden Gate Park. We loved it and can't wait to return!

Everything was great!!

We stayed here for several days while visiting San Francisco. The location was perfect…short walk to Golden Gate Park and a short drive/uber into the downtown area. It was on a main road which was always busy so be prepared for noise but it did not bother us at all. The house was well stocked with everything you would want/need and its eclectic style had treasures in every corner!! The hosts were kind and responsive. Overall it was a wonderful experience and we would definitely stay here again!!
