The guesthouse is a hidden gem in a nice neighborhood, a lovely respite from the hustle bustle of Oakland. The communication and check-in process was a breeze and we were welcomed with wine, chocolate and fresh flowers. Our host was available if necessary and very respectful of our privacy. Loved the artsy, homey feel, lots of comfy spots , indoors and out, to read, write, sip tea and soak in the beauty of the natural setting which we shared with the birds and squirrels. It was great having our own "secret access" to a nearby park and hiking trails. Thanks for letting us share your Little Cottage in the Woods, Sara.
