As if the propriety and the views were plucked straight from the hills of Tuscany, this place is the closest you can get to feeling like you've escaped to Italy. Being so close to the Bay, there was a sense of culture shock at how quickly the surroundings change. Once the gate opens and you drive inside, you enter a completely different world. Could not recommend this location enough. The hosts were very helpful in providing anything we needed, from cooking utensils and plates, to lawns games. I went for fourth of July weekend, and had the best time.
