This listing should more accurately read "Quiet and wonderful getaway....." because that's just what it is. The place is exactly as described and more so. Elegantly designed, comfortable and with every convenience, indoors and out. It is near to everything, especially great hiking only minutes away. The outside patio is also a great plus, and the photos of this place don't even do it justice.

This is the second time I've stayed here and I would not consider staying anywhere else in the East Bay. Not incidentally, Linda and Bruce are attentive and responsive hosts, always available but always respectful of one's privacy, which is assured by a separate entrance and your own level in the house.

Bottom line: great accommodations, private, wonderful area, terrific hosts. Do it!!
