Avis Gem in the Fruitvale Garden

This location was a great stay and very close to San Francisco. I didn’t realize three homes shared a yard however it was private enough and separated enough to have a morning coffee outside.

I had the best time here with my family! The property is absolutely gorgeous. Cindy was able to accommodate a second car for us since the reservation only includes one, there’s a small fee. The property is gated with a food truck next door. I was able to let my son run around and even rocked him to sleep in the hammock. Older Bay Area homes don’t come with AC and while it was in the 80’s, the heat wasn’t terrible at all. We had a fan on the low setting and the screen door, it was perfect. And if you do want to get out, alameda beach is a hop away. I love this neighborhood, I used to live down the street years ago. Some things we brought to make our stay comfortable and functional for a 1 year old was the u hook cabinet locks that go on the handles so baby doesn’t get into the cleaning supplies and water jugs since there’s no filter. There’s a foodmax around the corner, also if you’re traveling from far and need clothes there’s a Ross in that same shopping area. Definitely will be back for our next staycation!
