We had a good time staying at Carolyn's cottage - it's in the backyard of the main home. It's quiet, clean, and modern. The area might look a little dated, but is pretty safe and quiet.
The place is located just off a main street (Woodside Blvd, CA-84) with easy access to restaurants and shops close by. Carolyn is a great host - she literally responds within a minute. She was also great about bringing breakfast and basic supplies as well.
A few minor notes - a few ants got into the home, but Carolyn took care of the issue pretty quickly. The washer and dryer are in the basement of the main house, but you go in through the backyard and is very accessible to the cottage. The heater makes some noise when warming up.
Thanks for a great stay, Carolyn!
