Awesome stay!

Clean good communication nice quiet neighborhood easy access to Universty

Stayed in Davis for just a couple nights with my mom, brother and sisters. The location was perfect! Clean, organized and very comfortable for our stay. The owner was great about communication. The kitchen was well stocked with all we needed. I would stay here again!

Valerie left great instructions and was very responsive

House was clean, location was great. It was just right for 2 adults and 2 children.

Valerie's house was the perfect setting for our family stay in Davis. The house was close to campus and to the center of town. Valerie was an excellent communicator ensuring our stay was comfortable inside her house.

We found the house to be easy to find, very secure, nice private yard, well-equipped kitchen, good internet, tons of room in house. Would absolutely stay again.

The house was nice and spacious with lots of natural light. Beautiful landscaping and plenty of parking. Neighborhood was quiet. The master suite was nice but the guest beds were super old and uncomfortable (could feel the coils) and the guest bath was a little dingy.

This rental was perfect for our needs. Simple, no frills but nicely laid out and a pleasant neighborhood to go walking in. The owner was very responsive and pleasant to work with. We hope to go back next year.

The house was great. Every amenity you could want. Clean, good location. We had a girls weekend in the Sacramento area. It was perfect! I’d definitely stay there again.

First impression: Spotlessly clean! Which is one of the most important things to us. On the downside is the lack of comfort in the beds (hard, uncomfortable mattresses), bedding (hard, flat pillows) with bargain basement sheets, etc., The whole house is “adequate” as far as furnishings and kitchen ware. But it looks and feels as though there was no “love” or care put into furnishings to make the house feel like a “home”. All furnishings looked and felt like the cheapest possible. Just enough to furnish the house without thought as to the comfort of a guest. Five stars because “you get what you pay for” and I balanced my rating against the price for a good hotel room, (comparable price), BUT this house gave us 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths, a kitchen and garage. The space made up for the furnishings. The biggest thing this house is lacking is the sense of security and safety. There’s a definite need for outside lighting at the long walkway to the front door. There are 2 “cut aways” where someone could easily hide and at night it’s creepy walking up to the barely lit front door. Easy solution is to add lightbulbs to the existing fixtures. Perhaps the maintenance person doesn’t test the bulbs? The other easy fix is to change out the sheer curtains at the large front window looking into the living room from the front door. That way privacy can easily be had by closing non-sheer window coverings. The lack of paper products was annoying (no paper towels or napkins, 1 roll of paper thin TP in each bathroom), but we realized Davis is “green”. As a guest it’s still annoying not to have at least 1 roll of paper towels, waxed paper, foil, Saran, etc. Part of the reason behind choosing a VRBO over a hotel is the “home away from home” comfort. Valerie sent a detailed multi-page intro beforehand which was very handy and much appreciated. She is also great at communicating quickly with every question or text that I sent. All in all this house is a great value in comparison to other properties in the vicinity.

Extremely convenient location in the middle of Davis. Easy to find and minutes away from UC-Davis campus, supermarket, and restaurants. Well kept homely property with lots of space. Kitchen well stocked with appliances/cookware for cooking.

Gracious host, lovely home, beautiful backyard, close to everything in Davis and works well for my husband who is in a wheelchair……We’ve stayed before and are planning our next one!

The house was clean and perfect for our family.

Functional property with all the basics. Bathrooms, beds and kitchen. Twin bed in single room was not super comfortable. Decor could be updated a bit but all the necessities were there. Good location with nice neighborhood. Worked well for us to move our daughter into school.

My family stayed here while my daughter attended a gymnastics camp and we visited my son doing a research internship. The house and neighborhood was great. I was able to bike to the grocery store, university and downtown. The house was clean and equipped with everything you need and Valerie was so helpful! Thank you!

We thoroughly enjoyed this home. It was comfortable and spacious, the kitchen had all the amenities we needed and more. The location was great, close to parks and green belt. Great communication from the owner.

This property was great, 3 bedrooms with the master bedroom on the other side of the house. It was very easy to get into the home, communications with the owner was awesome. The property is 5 minutes from UC Davis. I highly recommend this property and will use this owner again whenever I am in the Davis Sacramento. Bty it is about 20 minutes from Sacramento.

The house is comfy and in a quiet neighborhood, convenient for all the places we had to get to in Davis and beyond. It's a bit like staying at Granny's house - there are lots of florals, the dining room has a protective tablecloth on it, and everything is a little bit shopworn, but it's comfortable and has all the amenities of a home away from home. The patio was delightful - nice shade in the afternoon, spacious and private - we loved that! Valerie was very helpful with the details and fast to communicate when we were in touch with her. All in all, a pleasant stay.

My family gathered in Davis to attend a wedding and a graduation. It is a comfortable house, well equipped, with plenty of light and perfect for us. We enjoyed gathering together on the patio for dinner. The ability to stroll around the attractive neighborhood and access the greenbelt is a real plus

Nice quiet area. The property had all the basics and generic amenities. Lots of cooking items that don't need to be purchased and you can leave yours behind if you wish to do so. Property management was very accommodating. However, one slight upgrade should be considered: a new twin mattress for room #1. Master bedroom and back bedroom mattresses were very comfy. All good.

comfy beds, great yard, lots of room to work remotely

Valerie & the house were great.

This is the second time that we have stayed here and it was perfect for our needs. There is more than enough room to relax, a very well equipped kitchen, a beautiful backyard/patio, and a garage, in a quiet neighborhood. Also, it is close to walking paths, supermarket/restaurants, and not too far from UC Davis campus and downtown. We love staying here when we come to Davis. Finally, the host provides great info/instructions about the property and is very responsive.

Valerie was great to work with. The house was super clean and was well stocked, especially the kitchen. Grocery stores are just a few minutes from the house. The house is in a quiet, clean neighborhood. We would stay there again. Our entire group felt very comfortable staying at this house.

This was a very comfortable house in a quiet neighborhood in Davis. It was perfect for our stay due to its proximity to our daughter and her family. We enjoyed playing with our 2 year old granddaughter at a park very near by. We also enjoyed hosting some family visits and dinners as the kitchen was well equipped. The host was well organized and communicative. We look forward to returning here for another visit.

Spent a very enjoyable week in North Davis. Property was as described, communication excellent. Will definitely stay again next visit to Davis.

Had a great time. Everything was perfect.

The property was well maintained, and the owner was impressively thorough in her preparation and instructions for its use. You could tell that she had strong attachments to both the property and the neighborhood.

Covid meant we hadn’t seen family for over 2 years. So, it was really important to find a rental that could accommodate the space we needed, whilst also being in the perfect location. This home offered that and so much more. As our son is in a wheelchair space was key ….this home has it in spades, he could easily move around and with a large en-suite bathroom, all his needs were catered for. We stayed for 5 weeks and the home had everything you need for cooking, working (unfortunately we still has to “work from home” and the WiFi was excellent) and having fun with family. The location was perfect for local family visits and beautiful walks. We also took trips to Sacramento, San Francisco, Santa Cruz, Yosemite National park and managed a couple of days in Las Vegas, to visit friends (cheap flights from Sacramento). We occasionally strolled into the centre of Davis, which took approx 50 mins at a leisurely pace and taking the scenic route. But regularly walked to local stores and restaurants which were much closer. Finally the communication with Valerie was perfect and she was extremely helpful. I could not recommend this property enough and we will definitely hope to stay again.
