cute cottage walking distance to beach
Thank you for the local recommendations. We tried several restaurants on the list and all were great. The local access to Zils Beach was a highlight so thanks for making sure we knew about it!

Backyard Beach House (BBH)
Barbara and her Backyard Beach House were wonderful. Best stocked Air B & B we've ever stayed at. Clean, comfortable, and relaxing. Especially convenient for us because we were visiting family a mile away. We'll definitely stay again. Thanks!

Guesthouse near FO Village. King bed| Gated
Great house with comfortable mattress. Privacy and large yard for children to play.

Private cottage in a garden
We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage. The backyard is peaceful and the grounds are really beautifully maintained. Cottage has everything you need, my girlfriend described it as “adorable”. Water pressure in the shower is eh but no issues with hot water. The snacks left were very thoughtful and much appreciated. Would stay here again.

Mid Century Modern Guesthouse
Great hosts! Beautiful space that was clean, cozy, and made me feel right at home. Tremendously tidy and lovely neighborhood if you want to go for a walk, run, or just enjoy the wonderful California weather. Highly recommend.

Cozy Cottage on the Farm: the perfect getaway
Suzanne is a wonderful host! She is so kind, attentive to the needs of her guests. I am touched by her caring spirit. The cottage will always hold a special place in my heart.

Rustic Cozy Brick Bungalow in Old Southwest Reno
Doug’s place was really nice, homey and cozy. Although I did think it was smaller than it looked in pictures, it worked fine for 4 adults. The area is private and peaceful and close to everything in the city so ubering was easy for a night out

Guest cottage -Urban chicken farm
The host and cottage shared one major thing in common: they were both great. Their property reminded me of a barn, and sleeping in the loft really makes the place great. One thing to note is the low ceiling of the loft area. The height will make things difficult for someone with a weak back. This does not ruin the experience, rather it enhances it. Five stars, given the chance I would stay again.

Lakeview Cottage B (No cleaning fee)
It was such a cute little place so cozy and great views of the lake and lots of wildlife to enjoy. I’m sure we’ll come again.

Newly built one-bedroom near wineries and redwoods
Another great stay! This apartment works great for me and my two small children. Cozy, clean and comfortable with everything we need provided. The kids loved playing in the little backyard in between rainstorms! And the hosts are lovely people. We plan to stay here every time we visit Ukiah :)

The Little House
La casita was beautiful! Everything was exactly as described and as the pictures portrayed. We had some trouble with power outlets but they responded IMMEDIATELY and fixed it within a few minutes!! I would definitely stay there again!

*New* Modern Studio Guest House
Katie and her guest house made us feel right at home our weekend trip to Sonoma. It was a very clean, comfortable, and well-furnished place to relax after a busy day of vineyards and exploring the area. We'd love to stay here again on our next visit!

Luxurious Downtown Cottage/2 Beds/Garden Retreat
Valerie and Charles were very generous with their amenities and food offerings. For example every morning you get a generous helping of bakery goods like fresh bagels and biscotti from the best local bakery. Very kind and helpful folks

Deerfield Cottage on Paso's wine road
It’s easy to see why there were so many five star reviews. The home was adorable with many cute touches. I especially enjoyed the candles, the olive oil and the welcoming gift of wine. It was a peaceful spot and fun to see all the deer and of course the flowers were gorgeous too. Monica was the perfect host and so accommodating. The outdoor patio was perfect and we had an amazing steak dinner using the grill. We stayed for 10 nights and even though the place wasn’t overly large it never felt cramped as it was well laid out, plenty of sunlight, large bathroom, and a huge deck. We highly recommend this Airbnb and would come back in a heartbeat.

Pet-Friendly Guest House with Private Patio
It’s on chill Alameda! Everything is a quick drive, even getting to Oakland. Lots of places within walking distance, including & especially the South Shore beach. Gorgeous!

Spacious West Side Garden Studio
Great bed. Great sauna. Great space.

Gorgeous Guest House with a Farmhouse Flair
This is an Airbnb I won't hesitate to return to again. Its convenience was convenient for our needs but most importantly, the property is incredibly relaxing and enjoyable. It was the perfect space for 4 people and we loved having the chickens as well as the neighborhood cat hang out with us. The place overall was clean and beds and sofa comfortable. We didn't cook but the kitchen had everything we needed for coffee, tea and light breakfast. Neighborhood is quiet and quaint. Lastly, this is the only Airbnb we've stayed at that truly doesn't require cleaning. No stripping of the bed, starting a load with the dishwasher or taking out the trash. Finally a host doing the right thing and making it easy for us to leave without scrambling. Thank you

Evergreen Valley Hillside retreat
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The space was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. It had everything we needed for a relaxing and enjoyable visit. Christina and her family were extremely kind and helpful, check-in was seamless and communication was easy. We’d happily stay here again and would definitely recommend it to others! Thank you for having us!

Adorable 2-bedroom country guesthouse
The place was perfect it’s really what we needed.

Very nice 1/1, full kitchen, W/D, New construction
I'm a 72yo husband to a much younger woman of 69. There are amenities that are inconsequential for much younger travelors that matter moreso to the silver crowd. Understand that nothing I add here subtracts from the accommodations listed, they are only observations near and dear to weary geriatrics. The unit is up a flight of stairs that are attached to the exterior of the building. This is a non-issue to travelers younger than I. The bathroom has been meticulously remodeled. Shower has a wide entry door with a minimum of threshold so no stubbed toes. However, the large shower has no grab bars which is concerning when you can't open your eyes while rinsing or turning. I have found that not all commodes are the same height so be aware this unit has a very low landing height without a grab point to resurrect one to upright. Nonetheless, the unit remains a fantastic lodging experience and in no way should my observations deter an informed traveler from selecting Scott's great offering.

Countryside Cottage
Nice and convenient to Harbin Hot springs. close to grocery and a few restaurants. Nice country area with great view of mountains and horses. Peaceful except for a bit of road noise, but it wasn't too bothersome. We would have appreciated some better quality bathroom towels, washcloths, more dishtowels etc. Jakob responded right away to questions about heater and lack of washcloths. He brought some wash cloths over with an hour. overall, very nice stay. Would recommend this place as good value.

Spacious 1 Bdrm|Full Kitchen|2Full Sz bds|W/D #3B
Nice stay and beautiful drive into the ash meadows and Death Valley national park.

Victorian Cottage on West Cliff Drive 18-0089
This is my happy place! I've stayed here multiple times and can't wait to come back. All the best things in the world within reach - ocean, beaches, hiking, biking, great weather, close to restaurants and cafes. The cottage is delightful- comfy clean and private and a stone's throw from everything in Santa Cruz. Thank you Khristina!

Poppies Coastal Cottage
Nick's Poppies Coastal Cottage was a wonderful stay! Great space for resting & relaxing after hiking in the redwoods or walking the beaches! Everything you need - huge kitchen space with everything you need, bed was comfortable, bathroom spacious with 2 showering options. Great local restaurants & coffee shops. We had a great time!! Definately recommend!
