This is a very special place and lovely home literally up in the trees, and across the street from a small lake. The entire location is magical and special. The area is home to many families, and is a dream for any outdoor enthusiasts who enjoy hiking, running, biking or walking. The steps up to the home are a mini workout in itself. The property boasts privacy with views. Rich was friendly, accommodating, flexible and gracious to give up his lovely home. (Do keep in mind the host may live here year round don't expect an empty place free of personal items.) The views are spectacular, and the conveniences being close to all of the Bay Area can't be beat (just about 20 mins. to San Francisco & 15-20 to Palo Alto). Thank you so much for opening your home! Would love to return at some point.
