Beautiful, tranquil home away from home

We loved our 2.5 week stay in this beautiful home while we remodeled our own place. Lovely quiet location, gorgeous views, walkable to Mt Diablo trails, ample space for both my hubby and I to work remotely (my fave was out on the deck w/ views of trees, flowers, birds, and rolling hills), great kitchen, comfy bed and couch, wifi, tv, and a short drive to cute downtown w great cafes and restaurants. Michael and Keiko were gracious, responsive and accommodating hosts!

Homey!

The place was very comfortable and you feel right at home the minute you step in. The house was very clean, and equipped with everything we needed during our stay. We enjoyed our quiet serene mornings and cozy nights. Mike was very accommodating, not that we needed much, and was responsive. Would def stay there again.

Easy Comfort

Cannot say enough about this property. Very nicely furnished and well equipped if you like to cook. (To bake bring your pans) The two full baths are supplied with several soft towels. Can accommodate four people comfortably. Out on the deck you can listen to the birds and watch them at the bird feeder. Not difficult to get to downtown where there are restaurants for every taste. A good location to get to SF, Oakland, Napa and beyond. Very quiet and peaceful. We spent a month visiting our children and friends and we were able to have them for meals around the table that fits six easily. Michael and Keiko are by far the most pleasant and considerate hosts we have experienced in all of our VRBO and B&B escapades.

Great alternative to Extended Stay hotels

This is a wonderful relaxing cottage tucked away near trailheads and open space. We stayed for a month and felt comfortable and relaxed. All the amenities you need and the host, Michael, is very responsive and communicative.

About the host

Hosted by Michael and Keiko Rost

We moved to this house eight years ago, after searching for a long time for a quiet spacious place that was still close to our favorite spots in Walnut Creek, and accessible to our work in San Francisco. When we were almost ready to give up and move to Lake Tahoe, we found this surprise property that had the nature and privacy we wanted, and were able to stay in the Bay Area. We're very happy here! We're both frequent travelers, and have sampled a number of VRBO properties around the world – and we aim to make ours the absolute best. Mike is a writer with a home office and appreciates the serenity and inspiration the place offers. Keiko is an artist and a gardener, and loves having this expansive space for growing succulents and other native plants and fruit trees.

Why they chose this property

The Brodia Garden House – our name for the second residence on the property – is a unique setting, with spacious rooms and gorgeous views.

We feel this place is a great alternative to those extended stay hotels that we have used countless times in our own travels.

This place is perfect for a couple or two traveling companions or a small family (up to 4 people) who need a temporary place while relocating or visiting friends and relatives.

What makes this property unique

Quiet, serene, spacious. All the modern amenities. Perfect for active people who love hiking – miles and miles of trails nearby, connected to Mt. Diablo State Park.
