The location of this home is perfect - within an easy walk to all the restaurants and shops that you could want. The home was in a nice quiet location with easy parking and extremely well stocked. We had everything we needed and more. Would not hesitate to stay here again, thank you for a great home on our vacation!

Nice Hosts, Great Stay

The property was clean and had everything we needed. The hosts were excellent communicators! We spent three nights at the house for a family trip and the great lodging experience made it easy.

We loved location, being so close to downtown Mt. View was great. Walking to breakfast was a highlight of our stay. The house was roomier than the impression we got from the photos. Very comfortable house. The host was great -- very flexible and always getting right back to us. We'd gladly stay there again.

Thanks so much! We lived in this home for 7 years ourselves, and we love the fact you can walk to 80 restaurants, bars and coffee shops in less than 10 minutes, with the closest ones being a 60-second walk. We'd love to have you come back and visit us again.

Cute little cottage in a GREAT location

This house is so quaint and cute. It is in a perfect location for work, vacation, or family fun. We participated in all three things while staying here. Easy access to roads both north and south to vacation around the area. Close to high tech offices for work in Silicon Valley. Walkable distance to Castro street to meet family/friends for an evening out, and plenty of living room space for fun board games. This house was very clean with all amenities available for a great week long stay. The property managers are quick to reply and are proactive sending information for check-in/check-out/codes, etc. I highly recommend this lovely house to anyone needing a place to call home for a brief period! We thoroughly enjoyed our time.

We had a wonderful week - the house is spacious, well-appointed and fabulously located

Mike made arrangements easy- the house was larger than we expected and had everything we needed. The location means just a short walk to shops and restaurants- all in all highly recommended.

Had a wonderful stay at this property.

Convenient location, easy check in, and spacious housing. The main shower knob is a little tricky to figure out, but has good pressure and temperature once we did.

Amazing spot near downtown restaurants and bars

My friends and I stayed here for an extended time and had the most amazing time. The location is superb, right alongside downtown Mountain View’s strip of restaurants and bars. The house is quaint and comfortable and can hold a lot of people surprisingly well. 100% recommend booking this place!

Nice Historic Home

This is a cute historic home, clean, well kept and very close to downtown Mounain View & neighboring parks. It was very comfortable for 4 adults and a toddler, and the owners were very accommodating in providing us with a crib & bedding for the toddler. We had a pleasant stay except for our grandson stepping on the floor heater and getting hurt. The owners promptly assured me that they will put a guard around the floor heater for future young visitors. I appreciate their quick response and assurance of taking care of this issue.
