Los Gatos Overnight Stay

Cottage is quaint. Very clean. Nice to have pots/pans and other needed kitchen Items. Appreciated the portable heater for the cooler morning temperature. Can hear some traffic sounds at night but pretty much just white noise. Jessica was very helpful when I had questions during my stay,

Wonderful, quiet oasis

Brittany and her family were extremely kind, communicative, and flexible when possible. The cottage is so wonderfully quiet and peaceful; tucked into the back of their property. I would highly recommend this cottage to any friends or family in the area

Lovely Cottage

Cute cottage in a lovely neighborhood. The place was incredibly clean and well stocked. The main floor did get very hot and muggy, even with the fans & AC upstairs running.

Incredible stay in a beautiful garden

We absolutely loved our short stay in the cottage. Waking up to see the bees buzzing in the beautiful garden and the koi swimming in the little pond was extra special. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Charming, Clean, and Cozy Cottage!

My husband and I enjoyed a delightful one-night stay at this cute cottage nestled in a quiet residential neighborhood. Despite the stormy weather that kept us indoors longer than planned, the atmosphere inside was so cozy that we had a wonderfully relaxing time. The rooms were impeccably clean, and Jessica, the host, was highly responsive to our messages, ensuring a smooth and pleasant experience throughout our stay. We look forward to returning to this lovely cottage the next time we visit San Jose!

Cute little place

Great location, perfect size for two, well taken care of, lots of amenities,. Even with a hiccup during our stay, they did their best to correct it. I have to mention the bedroom stairs are a bit funky .. not bad but not for everyone as they say. I would gladly return there,

Perfect Landing Spot!

Jessica's cottage was the perfect space for me to land and relax while I was working as a vendor at an art fair for the weekend. The cottage is comfortable, beautifully decorated, and had everything I needed. The property is gorgeous and inspiring as well. Just a lovely little bit of heaven tucked away in Los Gatos. I will definitely be back!

Relaxing

The gardens leading up to the cottage where just lovley. The privacy of the cottage was exactly what I was hopeing for. The sound of the freeway was not disturbing at all. The host where wounderful and a joy to talk to. Will. defintley return.

Highly accommodating

Jessica and her sister were super helpful and accommodating. I arrived with a horrific flare up of sciatica unable to move my luggage into the unit. The ladies grabbed all my bags and groceries and took it inside. Although the bedroom was very cute it involved climbing up attic stairs which I just wasn’t up to. They opened the convertible love seat on the main floor, arranged bedding on it and I was good to go. All in all, although rather small and tight, I very highly recommend this offering.

Perfect cottage

This cottage was perfect for my needs. I attended several concerts at Mountain Winery and this was a very convenient location to get to and from there. During the day we wandered thru Saratoga, went on a hike and visited the Japanese tea garden. In our down time, we enjoyed coffee and cards on the outdoor patio. The cottage was private, quiet and the location was gated. It was the perfect home away from home. In fact, I’ve used it twice this summer and won’t hesitate to return next summer.
