Clean and Cozy
The property is in an ideal location in central Davis about a block from the University. It is located in a quite neighborhood. The property is clean and cozy. The proprietor is very nice and makes himself available if needed.

A hidden gem
A lovely cottage tucked away from the street amidst a beautiful garden retreat. The location was great with no problem parking out front. It’s tinier than I expected but everything is there and it was tastefully done. Don was great and very responsive. If available, I’ll definitely try to stay there again next time I visit my son.

Cozy cottage in excellent location!
I had the pleasure of renting this cottage for an entire month while visiting my brother in a long-term care facility. While I had my car, I was able to bike to downtown Davis, Trader Joe's and other shops and most importantly to my brother's place and his family's home. I was also able to work from there daily in the mornings and it was pleasantly quiet. Cottage was clean and well appointed. Owner is very nice and pays attention to detail, keeping the grounds beautiful. He was excellent with communications, making sure I had what I needed. Thanks!

What a GREAT little place!!!
This will be my go - to place when in Davis. I loved it! It was clean, cozy and quiet, with greenery outside every window. Don met me at the curb, helped me carry my things and gave me a brief tour of essentials in the unit. It is so tastefully decorated - it does not feel like a rental, but an extension of the owners’ home. On that note, I did not see the owner after my arrival. It is also on a beautiful tree lined street in walking distance to the campus and shopping.
