Beautiful cottage & Great Stay
I enjoyed my stay here. Susan is so welcoming and friendly was very pleasant to rent from. I truly appreciated being able to keep my dog during my stay, and we both enjoyed the beautiful neighborhood walks. The flowers and garden made the cottage feel especially charming and inviting!

Incredible stay!
I was nervous moving to the Bay as I didn’t know anyone and didn’t know the area. Because of SJ’s and the Cottage’s warmth, I was immediately at ease and felt at home the moment I arrived at the Cottage. The pictures of the Cottage are amazing, but being there in person is even better. Upon walking in, the space feels so light and open, with high ceilings and perfectly picked accoutrements. You will have everything you need. On top of the amazing space, SJ and her family were incredible hosts. SJ is responsive, compassionate, and forward thinking. She knew what information I’d need to comfortably live there and she made sure I had it. Further, I had full privacy and never felt like I was in the family’s way. Staying at the Cottage was the best experience I’ve had at any short or long term rental. I cannot recommend the Cottage more.

Gorgeous Garden, Peaceful Home
This cottage is tucked away at the back of a lot in a beautiful garden sanctuary. It was stocked with everything we needed---and it was easy to have groceries/food delivered when we wanted to stay in with our little dog who was recovering from surgery. There is a nice bathtub and a comfortable bed, as well as plenty of closet space. And while the kitchen may look small, it is incredibly functional! Nice high ceilings and charming decor. A delightful hidden gem!
