Quiet Cottage on the Lane Close to SF, Parks, Redwoods, Zoo, BART and the Ferry!

Take it easy at this unique and tranquil getaway. Our 850 sq. ft. cozy cottage is located on a one lane dead end street where there is no traffic and is very safe! It is peaceful and quiet save for our 11 chickens which roam the yard from 8:30 am to 7:00 pm. Located close to SF, the Montclair shopping district, Chabot Space Center, the Redwoods of Joaquin Miller Park, Oakland Zoo, any many other wonderful attractions (check out Canyon). The cottage is a cozy 850 sq. ft. There is WiFi and NO TV, a comfortable Queen Bed and a small work area if needed. The kitchen is hopefully equipped with everything you'll need and the pantry has misc. food items for your use. We live in the home right next door if anything additional is needed or if you have any questions regarding your stay. Recommendations are freely given! You'll enjoy your morning coffee on the deck as a peaceful way to start your day!

Beautiful cabin tucked away in the burbs
Loved the little bunkhouse in Oakland, we had everything we needed! The place was very clean and cozy. No TV, but we didn't miss it anyway. Parking was convenient but backing out of the narrow dead end driveway was a nightmare. That was really the only downside to an otherwise picture perfect stay. Oh, and the chicken coop is adorable and is easily the most fun we had at a bnb in a long time!

Cottage on the lane
More than a cottage. Plenty of room. Nice yard, with chickens in their enclosure. Very quiet, though in a de sely populated neighborhood. No A/C, but not really needed in the cool Bay Area weather.

Cozy, quiet cottage with chickens
What a find! This cute multi-room cottage is in Oakland, but has a rural feel, surrounded by trees and with a few well-behaved and entertaining chickens off the screened-in porch. It's just a few miles from Joaquin Miller Park, with an abundance of walking trails. The host is super friendly and helpful. We loved our stay and would stay here again when in the East Bay.

The guest cottage is even better than the VRBO descriptive explains...very quaint, everything you could need, wonderful sunlight in the mornings, a lovely porch with chickens doing short serenades...did you know that the Pazzis were foiled from assassinating the Medici out in the country by chickens? That is why you will see chicken shaped pitchers, seriously. So, very safe! Very quiet! And close to the park and those lovely redwood trees--the 12 apostles, the Faery Ring. Easy to get everywhere around SF and Oakland from here. YAY!

Cute place, beautiful neighborhood!
I stayed in Oakland for work, and wanted a day to just explore the city. I stayed at Tom's place and it was great. The house itself is very cute, and had all that i needed. I was able to get in and out of the house with ease, and the garden and the chickens on the property were a lovely part of the experience as well. The neighborhood is very nice, with absolutely stunning gardens! I walked to a nearby coffee shop (Mokha ~ *highly* recommend!) and had a delightful time looking at all of the plantings. The only issue was that sometimes the Uber/Lyft drivers really struggled to get out of the one way street that the house was on. But that is not anything to do with the house or the host. I would recommend this place for sure!
