Great stay. Beautiful views

We stayed here during our time in oakland for a wedding. The space was just what we needed to get ready and prepare. Master bedroom was very big. Yard is great for sitting and relaxing. Great place to stay!

Gorgeous house, incredible views

This is a five star house. The only reason I gave it only four is that we were a senior group, somewhat mobility impaired. Please note that views=stairs. Some are a bit narrow and steep. But for families and groups, it’s an amazing place. Well equipped and definitely set up for bigger groups. Loved our stay overall.

Executive Leadership Retreat

We rented this beautiful house for an executive leadership retreat. The location was perfect - sweeping views, quiet area, and very inviting amenities. We made ourselves at home to dive deep into the business, bond over food, and spend time together outside the office. We communicated closely with Drew and I felt completely supported by them for every need and question. Thanks for having us!!

Definitely would come stay again and recomend to anyone coming to stay in the oakland area.

Awesome place in Oakland

Highly recommend Drew’s place in the Bay Area! Spectacular view - we loved watching the sunsets and the city lights! House was very spacious - loved the open living space and kitchen. It was clean and as described. Location was safe and near trails. Drew was a great host that was responsive and helpful. We will definitely stay at Drew’s place again!!

Oakland Gem

This place was absolutely amazing! Our friends were in town for a fantasy football draft and decided to stay here and I gotta say everyone was impressed. The view is breathtaking and there’s so much space! Great location too, central to everything without the hussel and bustle of the city. My husband and I were sad to say goodbye. Cannot recommend this place enough!

About the host

Host profile image
I fell in love with the trails in Redwood, Joaquin Miller and Roberts Parks. These parks are a short walk or drive from the house and boast many miles of trails for hiking, mountain biking and horseback riding. There is an outdoor pool that offers day use. There are also many miles of some of the Bay Area's best road biking in the east bay hills. I would love to share the amazing view of the entire bay area that I have enjoyed for years as wall as the tranquility that the local parks offer, all while being just a short 5 - 15 minute drive from the best spots in Oakland to drink and dine!
