Family gathering
I chose this house for my family stay because it was close to my son’s wedding venue in Berkeley & also allowed gatherings. It was great for my son’s new in-laws to join us for an introductory dinner. The deck was great and the kitchen was well-equipped. Chris was very accommodating & even offered to purchase a baby gate for the stairs for my 20-mo. grandson. The two bedrooms were very nice but the third is with a pullout couch - which was comfortable. It was nice that each bedroom had its own bathroom. Perfect for our family.

Perfect for a birthday party
Great stay! We needed a large space that could fit about 15 adults and 5 small kids for a birthday party. Unfortunately had some troubles with the oven that we couldn't resolve, but the host was very responsive and helpful. Would absolutely stay again- loved the location and vibe.

The house suited our family of 3 couples perfectly. Chris was an amazing host and went above an beyond most other hosts I have encountered. The location is near great hiking trails for dogs and the town is close by. We enjoyed our 5 nights staying here!

Brilliant Place to Stay
Location is super ideal, located close enough to campus that it's basically 15 minutes max drive. Host was super helpful and its super easy to check in. Rooms were super comfortable, very spacious for everyone. Also, one of the rooms had a really funny Goku poster that was a great laugh, really made us smile. Backyard is like having a wilderness view, we saw deer and rabbits at night which was so cool. Fantastic weekend and Chris is a brilliant host, couldn't have asked for more.

Fantastic getaway in the hills of Oakland
A very well appointed and private home in a quiet neighborhood. We stayed there for my son's wedding which was in Tilden Park (in Berkeley). Plenty of room for the 3 couples that stayed with ample parking on the street above.

The vrbo was exactly what me and my wife were looking for when planning our trip. It's one of the few places you'll find in the east bay that will accommodate a group of friends and you won't regret renting this place.

We had an amazing time at the house. Tucked away from the usual Bay Area crazy it was the perfect place for a small get together with friends/family to celebrate special event. Chris made everything so easy - one of the best hosts I've ever encountered. Perfect experience in my book!

What an epic spot for a staycation with friends!
What a gorgeous and well appointed home! We had a few friends in from out of town and wanted to do something special to host them and this was the PERFECT spot. The view from the upper deck is divine, and the kitchen and bar are a dream for making dinner and drinks for a small group. The beds are impressively soft, and it’s great that every bedroom has its own private bath. The location is so quiet and green and the neighborhood feels incredibly private and tucked away. Check in was seamless, and Chris was a very responsive and accommodating host throughout our brief stay. We are already dreaming of our next visit back to his beautiful home!

Perfect Experience
Me and 7 of my friends rented this place out for a night for our fantasy basketball draft. Chris was great and made sure we had everything we needed to check in! Following the check in, he even provided us with some snacks and gatorades to settle in. The place was very clean, with some of the best views I’ve seen in the Bay. Communication is key, and Chris was on top of it, even when the VRBO app was down. He mad a point to reach out via text and email to make sure we were ok. I would 100% rent this place again, and plan to do so for next year’s draft!

A wonderful place to stay for a destination wedding or event
We loved staying at Chris's home! In Oakland to put on a destination wedding, we needed space for our family and all the wedding decor. A hotel room would not have worked, this was perfect. It felt like staying in the home of family, not a stuffy business. There is everything you need within reach. Chris responded very quickly to our questions. The location is beautiful and relaxing with lots of space for extra family members coming in and out. Beds were very comfortable and private en suite bathrooms a plus! There was ample street parking without worry. We appreciated that there were multiple dining spaces, giving us the ability to have a small group for dinner after the rehearsal, rather than having to go to a restaurant. Would definitely recommend staying here, would do so again without hesitation.

This place felt like home!
We stayed here because we had family Visiting and needed extra space. Chris’s stay was absolutely amazing! The house had everything you could possibly need and more! Plenty of utensils, a good variety of cook and bar ware, coffee, extremely comfy beds, a wide selection of channels/apps on all tvs and a flat top grill we used almost every night. We spent a lot of time soaking up the sun on both decks, which had great views and were pretty secluded. Chris even had wine for us on arrival! This place was extremely comfy and felt like home, my entire family enjoyed it here and we would definitely recommend and stay again. Thanks so much for having us at your house!

Lots of Living space for all of us
The home was great, lots of space with a great room, and outside patios up and downstairs. Kitchen was well stocked, roomy, and we were welcomed with a bottle of wine and sparkling water. Chris set out some toys for our two grand kids which they loved! The location is beautiful, and views from the patio are lovely. Chris was very responsive and accommodating. I would stay there again, close to parks, shopping and downtown area.

This property and host are top tier! Equally impressive are the home's design, decor, cleanliness, amenities, spaciousness, location (convenient), wooded surroundings and privacy. I rented the home for an adult ladies slumber party of 7; none of the supplies I had brought along turned out to be needed. This host has provided everything you could imagine needing for a one-night romantic getaway or a family gathering. This is a fine home - the photos do it little justice. The home was warm and comfortable upon arrival. More, the host was exceptionally communicative - both proactive and responsive - both well into the evening and early morning. I certainly look forward to staying here again.
