Mateo's place is a pretty serene escape from the usual hustle and bustle of the Bay Area. I found it to be accurate to the listing; modest accommodations with thoughtful touches nestled in the redwoods. Piper stole the show and our hearts. It was cozy for us and we enjoyed reading and doing not much of anything by the stream. Mateo was friendly and accommodating while still giving us privacy and space. This is a great no-frills spot.
