Book a Oakland Cottage

"This is my second time here. I discovered Evan more thoughtful things this time! I was here for a week this time and my only suggestion would be a new mattress. I love this place and I will be back!"

"Comfortable stay in an idyllic location with the the best of Berkeley nearby."

"It was a pleasure to stay here, thanks Swami! The furnishings are quite sparse but all nicely comfortable and functional, with very good facilities all around in the bathroom and the well-equipped kitchen. It is relaxingly quiet and private, and in a pleasant area. Great location for a visiting academic (as I am), with an easy walk to the university campus, lots of restaurants of all kinds nearby, and BART station. I’d be very happy to stay again on future visits!"

"Tom is a great host and we loved staying in the cabin. The chickens were amusing too."

"We enjoyed our stay here. It was very clean and quiet. This was our second time staying here. The kitchen is well stocked with appliances and the bathroom has plenty of towels. We would definitely stay here again."

"A beautiful property in a quiet lovely hillside neighborhood. We were surrounded by mature trees and vibrant spring blooms. The property was built in a very thoughtful and artful way that made the experience extra special. It truly was a little piece of heaven. We hope to come back someday."

"This was my second stay at the cottage and it was as nice as I remembered it."

"While the place was clean, and we enjoyed our stay there are 2 issues that can pose a problem. 1 the parking can be hard to get. And if you come when it's dark the first day locating the house can be challenging. 2 the bed is on a raise floor about 18inch up. There is a step stool to use but older people should beware as this could be a problem. The bed is very comfortable and sleep well. The washing machine did not work while we were there. Would stay again for short visits."

"The space was certainly adequate. The bed was extremely uncomfortable, even after the property owner changed the mattress. It was not a property suitable for socially distancing, private space."

"This location was very comfortable. The beds were very nice, as were the towels. The home was beautifully decorated, large and clean."

"This is my second time here. I discovered Evan more thoughtful things this time! I was here for a week this time and my only suggestion would be a new mattress. I love this place and I will be back!"

"Satisfactory. Could be a little cleaner."

"Good, spot with plenty of room. Would stay again."
