Perfect Bay Area Oasis

Clean, spacious home with really nice outdoor patio space, in a quiet neighborhood within walking distance to several cute breakfast stops and close to Bart and grocery store options. This was the perfect place for my family’s five-night stay in the Bay Area to use as a quiet home base while being able to get to San Francisco and other areas easily. Hosts are very communicative and helpful. We loved everything about this property and our stay! Highly recommend.

We loved the place!

Very comfortable, homey atmosphere and so quiet despite the busy street (home is set back in the lot). Great home base to UC Berkeley and exploring the general East Bay area. Plus the owner Dugger is so helpful and welcoming. The only thing that was missing was adequate closet/drawer space for our clothing

Quiet oasis in Berkeley

This is a perfect house on a quiet street in Berkeley, within walking distance to many shops and restaurants. Charming, comfortable and restful accommodations. Bright with skylit rooms. Dugger was a wonderfully gracious host, willing to be flexible when our flight delays altered our arrival. We hope to rent this house again on return trips to Berkeley!

Fabulous

This is the best vacation rental I have ever stayed in. The pictures are accurate, the property is lovely , and Dugger is an ideal host. Dugger was communicative, responsive and kind. I stayed there with an infant and young child and the home was well suited to all family members. When my older kid lost a favorite toy, Dugger was kind enough to search for it thoroughly. All in all, this made for a great jumping off point for a Berkeley family vacation!

Cozy house with magnificent gardens

The house is perfect, very clean, and comfortable. The host though is the true gem. We had a family illness during our stay and Dugger blocked out days for us to stay extra, and let us pay nightly. It made a stressful situation so much better. The best part of the home is the garden area, the flowers, and fairy lights at night are perfect. I'd not hesitate to stay here again.

The house is really a home

Lovely artwork and looks bigger than the pictures. House was clean with newer kitchen appliances. We only made coffee and toast for breakfast. Yet, kitchen had everything that you would need to make a full meal. One suggestion, don’t forget slippers as the polished cement is pretty but cold in every room except the bedroom. Dugger was communicative and extremely easy to work with, despite a bit of a hassle with VRBO in terms of the app confirming and cancelling my booking. The home served our purposes, although those not looking to drive should know that there are not lots of large grocery stores or several restaurant options in immediate walking distance, which was not an issue for us since we only needed a landing pad to spend time with friends.

Great place to stay!

The host Duggar was great from the very start of the reservation and got back to me right away with any questions I had. He met us at the house and made sure my husband and I and three kids were settled and comfortable and gave us many good recommendations. The house was very comfortable with three bedrooms and comfortable beds. We spent most days in San Francisco but it was so nice coming back to a quiet safe clean home. There was a lot of fun games for the kids and wi fi. It was an easy commute to the city. You can walk to the Bart but with three kids it was easier for us to drive and park there ( only 3 dollars a day). After being in the city all day we opted to take lyft plus back and only paid $40. Bart is about $4 per person each way. There is ample street parking around the house and coffee shops, restaurants, and stores walking distance. There is only apple TV but that worked for us. Great home away from home, lucky we found this place and Duggar.

A Berkeley Oasis

Nestled in Poets Corner is an unsuspecting Berkeley Classic, with a private, gated entrance that leads you to your first look - A large, serene front yard of beautifully kept succulents, flowers and other plantings set against the house and surrounding it. There are areas for seating to take in the beauty while enjoying your morning coffee or reading a book. An outdoor dining area under a pergola is a perfect spot to share a family meal be it from the grill, the gourmet kitchen or take-in. The home is immaculate and well-kept. Each bedroom had all the comforts of home including comfy mattresses, spacious closets, and work space. The bedrooms were well-insulated for sound, as we were traveling with our one-year old grandson, who slept peacefully every night. The large living room was perfect for our group of four adults and one child to gather and relax with amenities of games, books, television and is lovingly decorated with pictures and art objects. The kitchen is a chef's delight and includes all the amenities this chef needed to cook some wonderful findings from Berkeley Bowl! The bathroom was spacious and toiletries provided luxurious. Dugger was a delight - the perfect host and was accessible if need be by phone to answer any questions necessary although he did cover all the bases prior to arrival thoroughly and succinctly. This was our first VRBO experience and we could not have been more pleased. We would definitely not hesitate to book this lovely find again and again!

Wonderful comfortable home that was a home away from home

Wonderful comfortable home that felt like a home away from home! I was a little hesitant at first because of the price was out of our budget. But we received everything that we hoped for and more. The house was very lovely and accommodating and very assessable for all of our needs. Yet at the same the adjoining neighbors were barely noticeable and tolerated our coming and going’s. It felt so wonderful to be in Berkeley in such a ‘Berkeley’ home. All the commodities that we needed to cook and entertain our few friends and each other. Even a water filter and Coffee french press! The queen bed and the linens (lovely cotton) were delightful and so comfortable. The down pillows made me not even miss bringing my own. We enjoyed our stay very very much. If I could afford it; I would come and stay for a retreat in the ‘poets corner’ for a whole month and write and paint. Thank you so much Dugger for everything. All the art and all the lovely furnishings were perfect. We loved being so close to everything and feeling comfortable to walk as women in the neighborhood at night. We visited with our cousin who lives in the Berkeley Hills. We visited the Monterey market for an amazing selection of fruits and vegetables beyond your imagination, Magnani poultry for organic chicken (Best price in California ), Italian sausages and cheeses and olives, Cesar Chavez park, the Bulb, The native botanic garden and the amazing Lake area in Tilden Park, The Berkeley Marina, and even the Berkley Libary to renew a CA library card. We just didn’t have enough time to explore more parks and do more hiking. Respectfully, Antonia and Nalini from Santa Cruz California
