Summary:
Just minutes away from shops, local breweries, McGeorge School of Law, the Golden 1 Center, restaurants and bustling midtown; the UC Davis Med Center is but a few skips away, too.
This is a 1930's artist’s bungalow with a colorful vibe. Your booking actually helps real artists within the community! Their art is featured in the house and also available for purchase :)
The Space:
The entire bungalow is available for access. There's a big backyard and a medium sized deck. Enjoy it. Your booking actually helps real artists within the community! Their art is featured in the house and also available for purchase :)
The detached garage is a closed space and is kept locked. Only the groundskeeper has access.
The Neighborhood:
Oak Park is a rapidly gentrifying area. The area is generally quiet, but sometimes (usually on the weekends/evenings) there are the occasional festivities. The house is about a 7 minute walk from the always fun broadway triangle; an area with great shops, breweries, GREAT FOOD and a kick ass bookstore. I love the Plant Foundry (nursery and garden) and i think you might, too.
Also, if you're stopping by in the Summer months (May - September) I highly recommend a visit to Oak Park Gather- a neighborhood event featuring local food and beverage vendors, cool crafts AND live music!
Getting Around:
If you get the chance, try the city's newest form of transit - electric bike sharing! JUMP Bikes are becoming more and more popular in the area and are a really fun way to get around. Of course Uber and Lyft are everywhere too!
Public transportation runs up and down the main cross street (Broadway); although I'm not the best with navigating the routes. Midtown is a 5 minute car ride away.
If you have a car, feel free to park right in front of the house on the street.
Other Things to Note:
The bathroom is attached to two bedrooms (jack and Jill). The third bedroom has a curtain for privacy instead of a door.
NOTE: We do NOT HAVE cable services. We offer streaming services such as Netflix, Roku, Prime, & Hulu. (Guest has to use their own Netflix account)
We encourage guests not to start fire pits/BBQ in the home as well due to surrounding trees that may start a fire. Failure to comply may result to a $199 charge and termination of stay.
Interaction with Guests:
At the front door, you can say "Hi" with the Nest Video Doorbell - just push the button (if you want to)
When you walk in, just say "Alexa, turn on the living room light!"
Basic household information is on the kitchen table. Wifi, tv navigation, lights (alexa) and temp control instructions are posted as well. I've lived in Sacramento now for over 20 years- If you'd like advice on where to go for great food, entertainment or even a leisurely hike, just let me know ;).
If you need anything else, I can meet, you can call me or we can message.
