This is a wonderful cottage. If anything, it is nicer than as described, and a bit bigger than I expected. It is super peaceful, and very "california" with wood and unique features. Everything you need is there. Marlene makes it very easy and is super welcoming. It is a 5 minute walk to the caltrain stop, which is by a great restaurant area. If you like walking, the Stanford campus is walkable. Would certainly stay again.
