Our family of four had a wonderful stay here while in the area to visit family and look at colleges. The cottage is simple, airy, clean and cozy, with plenty of space and beds. It feels like a home away from home. The location is also terrific, a quiet, peaceful neighborhood to walk/run, and within a few minutes drive from groceries, restaurants, and Palo Alto. We are from a quiet town in the Midwest, and very much appreciated having this oasis amid the bustle and busyness of the Bay Area. The best feature is the beautiful garden surrounding the property, with massive redwood trees right outside the door, fruit trees, herbs, and even chickens! Lawrence and Bin were great hosts, responding promptly to questions and requests. We also had the pleasure of meeting the host and getting a personal garden tour and interesting history of the property. We would love to return someday!
