I really enjoyed that this space felt far off in the mountains, but was still equally distant from major cities (Palo Alto, San Jose, San Francisco). It made for a peaceful stay. The property is beautiful, filled with lots of greenery and Tom and Devora's work fill the yard and the shelves. I did not stay in the loft, only in the fold out bed, which was surprisingly comfortable and quite wide. The porch is serene and a nice touch. Before booking, I read a lot of reviews, and most touch on the one con of the space: it is small. I felt that, since I was prepared for a small space, I did not mind it, but movement is admittedly limited when the fold out bed is open and at times, it was more comfortable to merely leave the bathroom door open while in use. I actually had a pleasant shower in the small space. The sizing is not a deterrent though; I merely suggest mental preparation if you are used to larger spaces. Tom and Devora provided coffee, English muffins, fresh plum jam, and fruit; all of which were delicious. I was able to comfortably bring snacks and store them. Devora is very communicative and answers messages promptly, and Tom gave us a tour of the property and was quite kind. Tom was especially helpful when we showed up at night, and since it's dark in the mountains, helped us find the shack gate. Tom and Devora have an on-site shop with their pottery, and I purchased several pieces, their work is beautiful. I would absolutely return here if needed to visit the area again, and I'd recommend this adorable shack to anyone.
