Where to start?
From the moment of booking and throughout our trip, Laura's communication and response time were extremely efficient. She even messaged me ahead of time to see if we needed anything special prior to our arrival.
Once there, we were personally greeted by both Laura and Ralph, so very gracious and welcoming. We received a tour and I was immediately impressed that the photos did not do justice to the beautiful accommodations that awaited.
Our flight was not without problems and we were exhausted from the delay and the record-breaking heat the Bay Area was experiencing during most of the weekend!
The place was clean, home-y and fully stocked with any and every thing you might need. The yard was gorgeous and Ralph was very generous in offering us our pick of any veggies that interested us!
The location is very close to the all-important 580 Freeway which makes travel in the Bay Area so much easier.
Any and all questions I had during our stay were addressed immediately as well. As mentioned, it was extremely hot during the weekend (well over 90 degrees both day and night). It was difficult to sleep with such heat and Ralph saved the day by bringing down a fan for use in the bedroom late Saturday night.
The hosts were accessible as needed but allowed us to just "be." On our last night, I hosted some family members for dinners, and they offered complete access of their gorgeous yard for our use. So very generous, kind and very much appreciated.
All this AND amazing homemade banana bread awaiting us...need I say more?!
Thank you so much Laura and Ralph!!
