Beautiful home in nice part of Oakland, CA

The property was in great shape and location was in easy walking distance to many restaurants and shops. The house was well designed with modern, stylish finishes. It was the perfect size for our family of 5. Zak is a great host.

Great location, great neighborhood

Convenient to restaurants, shopping and BART (as well as our granddaughter). The kitchen is fully equipped and great for a family meal if you don’t want to go out, although with all the great places to eat nearby there’s no need to cook. Highly recommended

The Goldilocks solution

It was just right. Not too large. Not too small. Terrific kitchen in which to cook. Great living room for evening hang out and the location was just right for those of us who love to walk for really fresh food, well-curated books, clothing (new and vintage), records and restaurants. Couldn’t ask for more. It was just right.

Best VRBO Experience

This was our best experience staying at a VRBO. The cleanliness of the house was top notch, the location was amazing, and the host was helpful and responsive. We will definitely be staying again if we get the opportunity.

Nice but Expensive

The house had nice finishes and is in a good location. However, the owner lives onsite in an ADU behind the main house (which I didn't see published). For how much is charged, I want a private property not semi-private. Additionally, the bed in the primary has an old mattress where my wife and I sunk to the middle. It's a nice place just too expensive for what you get.

Business in SF; Unwind in Rockridge

This is about the nearest thing to a perfect VRBO as we've seen. Instant access to BART and SF. Mindblowing array of restaurants on College Ave. Smart house with modern fixtures / heat / lighting with sensible furnishings. Very accommodating host. Great communication.

Terrific home in awesome neighborhood

As previous Oakland residents, we were hoping the vibrant village vibe of the Rockridge neighborhood still existed. It didn’t disappoint; all within walking distance of this nicely renovated craftsman. The home is clean, well equipped and employs many smart home features. Communication with the host was always cordial, prompt and efficient. Getting in and out of the driveway is a tight squeeze (leave the Escalade at home), but, didn’t diminish our enjoyment.

Great location, bring small car

Place is located in super convenient area, within walking minutes from some of the best restaurants in town and a few grocery stores. We all know what Oakland is infamous for, there is private parking but you will need a small car to squeeze in. Otherwise, host was very friendly and accommodating to our schedule after we arrived. All in all, wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.

Conflicted about writing a review because I want it to be available the next time we visit Rockridge. This is head and shoulders above other homes we’ve visited. Spacious, comfortable, clean, equipped with everything you need in a great location.

Awesome vacation rental

What a lovely comfortable home. The design is elegant, the renovation was impeccably done. It's in one of the best neighborhoods in Oakland (for restaurants, shopping, public transport). Nothing was overlooked in terms of our comfort. Owner available and helpful. We will surely try and book this property next time we visit our son. This is our third VRBO stay in Rockridge and was definitely the best (among some pretty great ones).

Family Visit in Rockridge

This is a fabulous property. The kitchen and baths are completely updated. The kitchen includes every utensil/pot/pan/dish you need to make dinner. So many don't! It is close to markets, restaurants, and transportation. My family agreed that we would definitely stay here again. Thanks to the host for providing such wonderful accommodations.

Gorgeous home steps from College Ave

We had a wonderful stay. The house looks historic but feels quite new and beautifully designed inside. The kitchen was a pleasure to cook in, and the view out the windows of the primary bedroom was a delight to wake up to. College Ave is a pleasant commercial street just steps away, making it very easy to integrate right into the life of the neighborhood. (There was a little night noise from a bar on a Friday, but not bad.) Off-street parking, good internet connection, and a friendly and responsive host. We'll look here first the next time we're in the area!
