Great stay!

It’s a very cute property and was perfect for our group. We weren’t aware it was on the flight path but were happy they stopped flying overhead at a certain hour. Very conveniently located to downtown and most sites we wanted to visit. Our host very graciously provided all basic necessities like coffee and creamer, that was very much appreciated! If we head back to San Nose we’d likely want to stay there again!

What a wonderful place to stay during our trip. The house is as neat as a pin. The cottage is perfect for "personal space." There is a fair amount of airplane noise, but that pales in comparison to the rest of the property. We will definitely stay here again.

Great location in San Jose

The property was great. Very clean and included a good supply of the basics. Gwen was very prompt in answering any questions and providing information. Loved that we could walk to the SAP Centre and there was plenty of off street parking. We will definitely book again if coming back to San Jose.

Fantastic Holiday Stay

Five adults in San Jose over the holidays. The house is large, well stocked and clean. The location is great. Very close to airport and walking distance to train station, arena and plenty of restaurants. The host was very responsive and helpful. We highly recommend this rental.

Beautiful home!

This is a beautiful home with everything you could possibly need! The decor and everything there is to enjoy in this home shows that the owners love and care for this place very much. There are a lot of cameras, including a ring camera, if you like that to feel safe.The home is in a quiet and peaceful cul de sac, tucked away from everything. I really appreciated the quiet!

San Jose Stay

The property is very close to downtown and San Jose Little Italy. However, it's in the direct flight path to the airport. And you will hear jets landing every 5 minutes

Super comfortable/cozy house. Everything is actually as described but even more well thought at and equipped - beds were super comfy. Feels more like your own home than many VRBOs

Billie concert

Cozy hose and cottage

The house was very clean and welcoming. The kitchen was stocked which was great as we cooked several meals during our stay. We really appreciated the Starbucks k-cups as well! There were two bath towels laid out per room which was great but it would have been nice to have extra as we stayed several days. There were washers and dryers available but we were busy with family activities so didn’t get to washing the towels we had. Not a big deal but something to consider. The backyard was really spacious and we enjoyed the firepit in the evenings. One thing to be aware of- the San Jose airport is very close and there were big noisy jets flying over the house constantly, from 6am to 10pm. There were dogs next door that barked quite a bit but we didn’t mind. Overall, our stay was nice for a short visit in San Jose.

Fabulously Fun Family Weekend

My family went to the San Jose Sharks game and love this house’s proximity to the Shark tank! We walked to dinner each night and bought groceries at Whole Foods. The house impeccable clean and comfortable. We had such a good time we will check out the availability of the little house for future games.

Great property close to San Jose DT and Events

Myself and a couple of my work team mates stayed at the property to attend a conference at the Convention Center. It was a great location, just about a 10 min walk to downtown, and about 15 to convention center or an $8 uber. We enjoyed that the house was in a good location and had great outdoor space in the back that was exclusive and enjoyable to hang out at. We will look to stay next year as well. The owner was very responsive and considerate while booking and staying.

San Jose Cottage

Had a great month at this cozy property. Very clean and communication with property manager was great. Yard space was nice to enjoy the great weather. Separate cottage was perfect office. Walked to downtown restaurants as well as around the block to San Jose Little Italy which is a must for cocktails and food. Loved Pasono’s Great if in town for Sharks game or event at SAP center. Overall this is a nice place to stay and we were very comfortable.

Wedding Weekend in San Jose

The cottage was in close proximity to all of our wedding activities, which was why I chose it. It was nicely appointed and there wasn’t anything we wished the house had. Family members had stopped by to see us throughout the weekend so it was nice to be centrally located. There were a lot of house rules regarding noise and mentioning of being evicted if neighbors complained. Totally understandable but we could never be noisier than the construction going on around us and the constant noise of being in the flight pattern for the airport.

Surprise Visit!!!

This property was Amazing! It was a Home Sweet Home! It is fully equipped with all your cooking needs. The bedrooms were nicely fixed with comfy beds. The restrooms were stocked with daily needs. Even though we brought our shower needs Gwen also provided Shampoo, Conditioner n body wash. That was really nice of her. My favorite part of the house was the backyard, we bbq two days. The yard was big enough to run around. We really enjoyed the fire pit at night and made S’mores for the little ones. This property is minutes away from everything you need. Shopping mall, grocery stores, bars n restaurants. I would say close to downtown San Jose. If needed to do another family reunion, I would definitely reserve this property over again!!! Thank You Gwen for your Hospitality!!! 🤗

A very cold beginning

The heat does not work in the living room. Upon arriving the place was so cold, it took over 24 hours to get semi warm. The listing does not describe the 3 bedroom being detached from the home. I had a hard time trying to get the full check in information which I demanded 2 hours prior to check in. Received multiple texts with the instructions and was not put on the VBRO message until 30 minutes prior to check in. I was actually a little concerned this was a scam (but is wasn't), just not professional at all

Wonderful stay in San Jose

We were in town with family (5 of us total) for my son's graduation from Santa Clara. This was a perfect spot for us to gather and chill when we weren't on campus for the festivities. The place was spotless and welcoming, the kitchen was well-stocked, and the towels and sheets were soft. The yard between the main house and the cottage is a lovely place to have coffee in the morning (nice Keurig, by the way!) and there is parking right in the driveway. The house is super close to grocery shopping, restaurants on the Alameda, and about 3 miles to the Santa Clara campus -- quick drive. Gwen was super responsive and helpful. OK the planes are noisy but we noticed they stopped after about 1030pm. The detached cottage does not have its own bathroom but it's convenient to use the one steps away, thru the back door of the main house. The detached cottage has a mini-split for AC; the main house has a Nest thermostat and if you're not familiar with these, you can figure it out by watching a short YouTube video. We loved our stay here and highly recommend it!

Top Ten Percent

This is a top ten percent place. Though the listing reads "cozy," there's plenty of room and the separate/private room in the backyard is a big plus. The house is a great mix of adorable decades old style within a modern renovation - notably modern kitchen and bathrooms. The back yard was actually our favorite part. With the ideal weather and comfortable seating our group enjoyed most of social time there. I've read the other reviews and yes there are airplanes overhead from time to time, yest there's some traffic noise and we had some noisy neighbors one night. Part of what makes this place great is how close it is to everything anyone would want to do in San Jose or Santa Clara. These are urban places; quiet solitude is not normally found in such places. We didn't meet our property manager, but she was responsive and helpful. We didn't have any significant issues during our stay. Perhaps the only thing that bothered us was the surveillance camera pointed toward the backyard - which was, in effect, our living room. Nevertheless, the icky feelign of being watched didn't prevent us from loving our time out there.
