The Little Cottage that Could

Very nice little house and was great for our large dog. The dog park was within walking distance. Standard size frig and oven were great along with a kitchen table that comfortably seated four. Host was very responsive!! Would easily stay again!

Delightful Alameda!

We had never visited Alameda before and were thankful to find a lovely spot to explore the area. If the weather had cooperated we would have enjoyed the lovely outdoor spaces at the cottage. The cottage itself was great for 2 adults (the bathroom was accessed through the bedroom). The kitchen is large and updated. The living room is also large, but could use more comfortable seating.

Lovely Cottage in a Lovely Neighborhood

If you are visiting the bay area but want to stay in a beautiful cottage away from the hustle and bustle, this cute cottage in Alameda is the perfect place. Good price, dog friendly, comfortable, and they don't require a 2-3 night stay. Close to the beach and Webster St. I'll be staying there again in a few weeks.

Very spacious cottage with comfortable beds and good outdoor area. Only recommendation would be a black out curtain in the bedroom and a heat lamp in the bathroom. I will definitely stay here again!

Super cute cottage

We loved our stay here. It was the perfect amount of space for the 2 of us, and had a lovely private backyard that we enjoyed with our dog. The only thing I would mention if I had to come with something, is that we weren’t expecting the larger house in front of the property to be a rental as well. Sometimes small quiet groups and sometimes not so quiet. But overall it was a wonderful stay.

Return Guest

This spot in Alameda is really great, my third or fourth visit. Great location and easy parking. Indoor/Outdoor with the back door is very nice. Great neighborhood, super safe. Took the ferry to SF and caught the Blue Angels air Show. Highly recommend the Seaplane Ferry Stop in Alameda, free parking and lots of it - last Thursday at least. Lots of good stuff on Webster St - start at Wescafe and go from there. Nice and quiet place, very comfortable for our dog and ourselves. Great Kitchen Space. Highly Recommend.

Ideal for a couple.

Our adult kids live in the Bay Area, but don't have space to put us up in their homes. This house was ideal for us. We stayed 5 nights. Our kids came over with board games. They even made soup and baked bread for us in the well-equipped kitchen. The house was spotless.. Quiet neighborhood. 5 minute walk to beach. 10 minute walk to restaurants.

Lovely pocket of Alameda

Great place for a quick weekend visit in the Bay Area. Accurate description and very clean. The walkway and path through the backyard and toward the cottage isn’t well lit - there’s a spotlight at the beginning but after that it can be hard to see. It isn’t a problem, just plan accordingly if you plan to arrive late on your first night (like I did) and have your hands full. Once I was familiar with the place, the lighting wasn’t a big deal at all. I would definitely stay here again!

Charming Alameda Cottage

This is a sweet cottage in a very nice neighborhood. It was even larger than I expected, and was well appointed in a sort of “shabby chic“ fun & comfortable way. The bed was cozy and the outdoor area was beautiful and idyllic with lovely plants and landscaping. As a woman alone, I felt very safe there. The one disappointment I had was that items you expect to be in a VRBO were not there. There were no measuring cups, measuring spoons, paper coffee filters or baking/muffin tins, and the supply of dishwasher soap, paper towels, Reynolds, wrap, and other things were low enough to last just one day. I believe that if I had taken the time to notify management, they probably would have purchased these items for me, but I decided to just go out and buy them along with groceries. Since I left what had been missing there, anyone staying at this cottage should find it well stocked. I really enjoyed this out-of-the-way cottage!

Recommendation

I really enjoyed the cottage. Property manager is great and responded quickly when I needed assistance. I loved the area it’s in and Alameda is great. It reminds me of my hometown of Oak Park, IL. The bed was very comfy eatable. I do recommend upgrading the living room furniture. The couch is very uncomfortable and the whole living room could be arranged to be much more usable. However, again I really enjoyed the cottage. The patio is fabulous. I’ll be back!! 🤗

FELT SAFE AND SECURE

My impression of Alameda island is that it is a very safe little community. We were very comfortable walking to the many shops and restaurants on Webster Street, although common sense made us head for home before it got dark. I would also recommend taking the Alameda/Oakland Ferry to the San Francisco Ferry Station then catch a trolly to Fisherman’s Wharf. A Very enjoyable stay!
