Very clean, the host was very accommodating and kind. Loved our stay and location that was within 15 minutes of everything to see in the area. The garden patio was a treat for mornings and evenings to sit and enjoy the outside.

We had a good stay here in the private cottage, which allowed us to explore both Point Reyes and also to travel into San Francisco. Eda is a friendly and welcoming host, and the check-in process was smooth and flexible. The property is clean and comfortable, we would recommend it to others. Look out for the hummingbirds outside, as visitors from the UK we enjoyed the novel spectacle of watching them in the garden!

Great location and amenities!
Very clean cottage with everything you need provided. Air conditioning and heating provided. Perfect size for me and my spouse. Very quiet neighborhood and walkable to the downtown, which we enjoyed going to restaurants, coffee shops & retail shops. Beautiful gardens and outside sitting area. Communication with owner was excellent. We would definitely stay here again!

Perfect luxe stay for our short time in the area!
This was a tidy, attractive, well appointed garden apartment which provided privacy- and shared space with Eda, the host. We enjoyed our visits with her, and appreciated her attention to detail in the cottage, and her friendly suggestions for things to do in the area! The veggie and herb garden was delightful, the hot tub dreamy...we'll have to return to have more fun!

Home away from home
We have stayed in a several Vrbo’s in the area and Eda’s is the best we have experienced. She is such a lovely woman, and even gifted us a bottle of bubbly to celebrate the arrival of our new granddaughter. We have finally found our home away from home.

Thank you Eda for being a very gracious host. The cottage is perfect: conveniently located, quiet, immaculate, just the right size and fully appointed.

Couldn't have asked for a better host. And this location is perfect if you want to be right in between downtown SF and wine country. This is perfect for two people. The pull-out bed in the living area was very comfortable.

Perfect!
This place is a perfect spot just over the bridge from San Francisco and close to Muir Woods which is a beautiful spot for hikers and outdoor enthusiasts. Eda was a fabulous hostess and made us feel right at home! She is a lovely person.
