I live in San Francisco and wanted a relaxing "staycation" over the 4th of July to escape the city and the neighborhood fireworks, with my three year old and two small dogs. I was attracted to the pictures of the beautiful pool and sure enough, the pool was even better than the pictures. It's a wonderful, clean and roomy cottage with a king bed and full kitchen, and a great place to sleep (quiet, peaceful) and relax with the big screen TV. However for us, the backyard and the pool, and the fact that we had full access to it, was an absolute gem. As it was the 4th of July, we really just wanted to swim and do some grilling, and we had access to both the pool and the fabulous grill and patio. Kolja and Sabrina have daughters close to my daughters age, so there was also a play house and sand "beach" that she loved playing in. There were two cute bunnies to feed, and my dogs were able to roam and explore the completely gated property. Kolja and Sabrina are both extremely friendly and welcoming. I would have been happy to share the pool with them and their family if they joined us (they had other plans that day). Kolja also had helpful tips for the neighborhood, and made sure to ask if there was anything he could get us, and make accomodations. Thank you for hosting us!
