Great 7-week stay in Benicia!

We had a great time staying at Stef's house with our dog. The home is walkable to 1st St (downtown Benicia), which has lots of cute shops and restaurants, and also close to the freeway. The house is spacious, very clean and comfortable. Stef was very communicative and flexible, including allowing us to check in early. We would definitely return!

Beautiful Home

The house was beautiful, well located, and is very well equipped. Communication with the owner was excellent. The owner is not only an excellent communicator, but was also very accommodating to our needs. Lots of on street parking. Calm, quiet neighborhood. Very walkable to downtown locations. Beautiful, fenced backyard/deck space.

What a charming, clean house

From the moment one walks through the door it feels like home. It is so comfortable and beautifully restored. It smells of furniture polish and has a very happy feel about it. The kitchen is well stalked and big enough to cook a meal. The open plan living/dining room is spacious and the high ceiling makes it very airy. A couple of the upstairs rooms are locked, but two bedrooms and two bathrooms are plenty enough space to stretch out. The backyard is large and offers good space for a dog to roam. There is a small grassy part below the deck that leads into a hidden little wilderness, perfect for dogs and children to play. The main floor bedroom mattress is on the firmer side. All appliances we used were in perfect working order. Some of the kitchen lights were flickering, but even with them turned off the place was bright enough. The TV was a challenge to sort out. We just pressed several buttons until we had success, this took a few minutes every day. But there is certainly enough reading material to keep one occupied. The neighbourhood is quiet but not necessarily ideal to walk a dog. But it feels safe and with the grassy front and backyard there is enough space for a dog to play a little ball. The only thing I would ask the owner to consider is to install a motion light on the porch. It was very difficult to operate the keypad in the dark on our arrival. Thank you for letting us stay, we would not hesitate to rent this house again when working in the area.

Benicia gem

This property was perfect for 2 couples traveling together. The separation of bedroom and baths on both floors and the open floor space made it work great. Stef (owner) is great to work with and has the home set up with everything to make our four day stay very comfortable. The home is very conveniently located to safe walking to grocery store, bakery, restaurants and water front in Benicia. It is also conveniently located for day trips to Muir Wood, Wine Country and both Oakland and San Francisco. We would definitely book again.
