This space has a total of 250 sqft interior space.

The space
Tis VRBO consists of two combined spaces: a rustic cabin and an attached studio, both steps away from each other and situated admits the native plant garden in the back of the main property, offering the perfect combination of old-world charm and contemporary amenities.
The Cabin:
Step into a hand-built haven crafted with love and dedication, featuring natural wood finishes and reclaimed wooden accents throughout. The cabin has a 12x10' layout with a very high ceiling, to open upwards into a loft. This super-cozy, rustic cabin comfortably sleeps two in a quaint, antique double bed, offering breathtaking views right from under the covers. Ascend to the loft, a perfect spot to relax in the comfortable lounger and soak in even more stunning vistas. The loft can also be converted into an additional sleeping space with the futon sofa. A dedicated table provides a workspace for those who need to stay connected, while large windows bathe the cabin in natural light, maximizing the breathtaking views. A large glass sliding door seamlessly connects the indoor and outdoor spaces, opening directly onto the vibrant native plant garden.
The Studio:
Just steps from the cabin, the simple one-room studio with attached full private bath provides all the comforts of home. Relax in the queen-size bed and refresh in the full private bathroom. Enjoy modern amenities like a large internet TV and an electronic piano for your entertainment. A unique selection of snacks and drinks is also available for your convenience. This combined space offers a one-of-a-kind experience, blending the rustic charm of the hand-built cabin with the modern convenience of the studio. Perfect for those seeking a unique and memorable getaway that features breathtaking views of the San Francisco Bay.
Guest access
Enjoy seamless access to your private suite with a key code lock upon arrival. A dedicated parking spot is available for your convenience. Please note that there are 4-5 steps leading up to the back of the house and the suite entrance. Step directly from your studio into the native plant garden, complete with a handmade concrete table and various other seating areas offering stunning Bay views. This suite is not specifically designed for wheelchair accessibility. Detailed check-in instructions, including the key code, will be provided upon booking. Other things to note Our cabin plus studio is designed to be cozy and comfortable for groups of 4. It features a queen size bed in the studio and a full size bed in the cabin. For groups larger than 4, the loft serves as a dedicated sleeping area (please see photos of the sun room), and the futon conveniently folds down into a bed. This setup provides flexible sleeping arrangements for everyone in your group. Our garden is a living space that changes with the seasons. We are continuously working to improve and enhance it, so the garden you experience during your stay may look slightly different from the photos, with new plants growing and evolving throughout the year.
