Perfect Property and Location

This house was perfect for our family of 5. The newly remodeled kitchen and bathrooms were great (especially the kitchen which is spacious and really nice!). There was plenty of room for us to relax and feel at home, and the kids loved the pool. It’s a beautiful, quiet setting that’s remote yet was really convenient for us. The owner is very responsive and accommodating.

Chill house nestled among the oak trees

This house is a little oasis in the hills west of Stanford. We had a very relaxing stay, hanging out by the pool and listening to the birds chirp and the background hum of insects. It's a little out of the way, but you get this amazing quiet in exchange. Also, we found a good restaurant (Parkside Grille) deeper in Portola Valley, so don't only look East if you want to eat out. Would definitely stay here again.
