Pleasant stay in Menlo Park

I booked this cottage for my niece and fiancé who were visiting to attend the Dickens Faire. The cottage was very clean, comfortable, and centrally located for easy excursions to many Bay Area locations. It was a wonderful place to relax and recharge between activities. I would definitely rebook for any visiting family and friends.

Heavenly

This is a cute little two room cabin, set amidst several beautiful small garden areas. Although over all on the small side, the rooms were completely adequate in space to effortlessly move around. Owners were there part of the time and were very helpful. Sitting in the garden with a champagne breakfast was heavenly.

Menlo Park Cottage

A lovely and very comfortable little cottage with a delightful garden! The renovations in the cottage were top notch, with high end appliances in the kitchen and modern and generous shower in the bath. An added, and most enjoyable, feature of this property was a door that opened directly onto a patio with a table and chairs to enjoy morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evening. The roses in the garden were abundant and spectacular and visible from every window in the cottage!

Such a great and cozy find

We had a marvelous stay and hope to go back again and again. This treehouse-on-the-ground is small and also capacious. My husband and I got along beautifully for 5 days in this well designed and beautifully appointed 500 square foot space! We were delighted to meet our hosts who took excellent care of us. The outdoor garden space made for lovely California living, and enhanced the sense of luxury. Quiet and green with a serene neighborhood vibe, we give the English Tudor cottage our highest rating.

A Garden Oasis

Loved our stay! We used this as a home base to move my daughter into her dorm - it's very conveniently located close to campus. Though it's in a quiet neighborhood, many amenities are nearby - a Safeway, many restaurants, and Stanford Shopping Center. The cottage itself is tucked behind the owner's home, but access is easy, and includes an adorable (very friendly) canine welcoming committee. If dogs aren't your thing, don't worry, these dogs won't bother you at all, but are happy to receive a tummy rub if you wish. The cottage itself was spotless, with a modern, well-supplied kitchen and bathroom. The queen-sized bed was very comfy, and nights were wonderfully quiet and peaceful, with lovely gardens and outside sitting areas around you. Though we didn't need it, there is A/C, as well as a washer and dryer, and TV with cable. The owners are super friendly if you need them, but the cottage feels very private if you don't. Ample street parking is available with little street traffic. Would stay again!

A restful and beautiful cottage

We had a lovely time. The cottage is perfect for two of us, the bed very comfy, well stocked kitchen and a lovely outdoor table where we could host friends. The setting of the cottage is a property with beautiful flowers and redwoods! The location is very convenient both to downtown Menlo Park and San Hill Road and Stanford. The owners are great- helpful, friendly and fun!

Quaint, Clean, Picturesque Gardens, Quiet Cottage

We were in town to see Coldplay at Stanford Stadium. The location of this cottage to Stanford is wonderful. The property managers were kind and easy to communicate with. The bed was very comfortable and nice sheets. I’m always concerned with the cleanliness of bathrooms and appreciated the updated shower with bench seat and large overhead showerhead. Menlo Park is a beautiful town and we enjoyed our long weekend stay.

Nice lodging

Overall a lovely stay. The apt is clean and has a washer dryer. The bed is very soft (which I like) but you won't be happy if you need a hard bed. Washer dryer is great. Kitchen has some basic staples (salt, pepper etc). A few small downsides: To get into the property it's necessary to step over a metal 'fence' that keeps the dogs and cats off the street. I suppose it's possible to move but I didn't want to risk it because it looked like it would all tip over. It's a bit awkward and especially tough when carrying a suitcase. Difficult for anyone disabled. Also, during my stay the TV didn't work--kept freezing. The owners were away so it wasn't fixed, a downer.
