Wonderful serene and charming guest retreat on Marilyn’s property. This retreat is nestled in the beautiful Oakland Hills. When entering the retreat guest house, immediately I could feel and sense all the small personal touches the place offered. The high vaulted ceilings with and ceiling windows allowed wonderful natural light into the room. The retreat is extremely cozy and stylish. I loved the décor, the sleep number bed, and welcoming bathroom. You have all you need staying here including a mini fridge, microwave, water tea kettle, French press, cups, plates, and utensils, coffee grinds provided as well. This is a very quiet neighborhood. Downtown Oakland is only about 6 miles away. Marilyn greeted us when we arrived and pointed out everything in the retreat. There is a red binder full of information about her place and the surrounding area. I’ve stayed at a various AirBnB’s in this area and I would without hesitation stay here again. Such a clean, beautiful, quiet, stylish, and peaceful place to stay! Also, the retreat opens up to an impressive backyard full of lush plants! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here!
