I'm reluctant to write this review because I fear it will be forever booked, but here goes: if you are planning to stay in the mid-Peninsula and want a hotel alternative, look no further. The creek house is absolutely fantastic. It's spacious, airy, more nicely appointed than my own house, and has beautiful outdoor spaces in which to enjoy the lovely northern CA weather and the adjacent creek. It's quiet and private, yet also walking distance to the train station as well as restaurants and shops of "downtown" San Carlos (including a grocery store and drugstore). All facilities worked smoothly and the owners were communicative, helpful, and welcoming. I hope I have the chance to return soon.
