We selected this location because we knew that the general location is in one of the most picturesque and close-to-nature parts of the East Bay Area. The home, the amenities, the location and, especially the host Emily, have all exceeded our pre-arrival expectations.
We arrived in the Bay Area from out of country a few days before the Covid-19 induced shelter in place mandate, and could not have wished for a better location to self isolate. The house has a large yard with trees, ample parking, and game (we have seen deer, wild turkeys and lots of beautiful birds in our yard). The home itself is spacious and well equipped with high quality amenities. Guests should be aware that home supplies and stores are about a ten to fifteen minute drive. There are great nature trails within walking distance.
The host, Emily, and her family are great and only a message or phone call away. We were warmly welcomed on arrival, given a house tour and our host made sure we had all the supplies we needed at a time when shopping was not easy. Additionally, the host checked on our well being without ever being intrusive.
This was indeed a home away from home and we wish Emily and her family the very best of fortune.
