About the host
Your host
I am a retired schoolteacher of 30 years. I’ve been retired. For 12 years. I love traveling away from my home, more than I am there. So I decided to share it with traveling professional people, looking for a home away from home for three months to a year.
Why they chose this property
I chose this neighborhood because it is beautiful and in a peaceful area, right off of highway 280. Away from everything and yet so close to anything you need. Neighbors are wonderful. The neighborhood is like a caring community, one big happy family doing their own thing and enjoying life.
What makes this property unique
Each property in this neighborhood is unique, with all of the beautiful scenery around outside and inside of your property.
