Great stay in this great little cottage. It has all the comforts of home and more. Very private and quiet. Kirsten was a wonderful host!

We stayed at Kirsten's cottage for a little over one month after being evacuated from our home due to the wildfires in CA. Prior to our stay at the cottage, we had been vagabonds moving from place to place, none of which could hold a candle to the cottage. Its location was perfect for commuting to Silicon Valley, its proximity to great restaurants and shopping, and a wonderful family friendly neighborhood to take strolls. The best aspect of the cottage was its impeccable design which started with a hidden private entrance and private backyard garden. The interior design was light and bright with high ceilings which made it feel much larger. The choice of materials from flooring, to cabinets and counters, and furniture was top rate. The kitchen had everything you need and more. Kirsten was a great host who provided a tour of the property to get us oriented with all the gadgets, and she checked in during the stay to make sure we had everything we needed. There was a notebook with recommendations on local restaurants and things to do, and backup info in case you forgot how to work something. In short, every detail was thought through. We would highly recommend the cottage for any single people or couples!

We really enjoyed our stay in the cottage! Very clean, quiet and easy to communicate with the owner. We would HIGHLY recommend this place for anyone looking to stay in the area!

Kirsten's VRBO is so beautiful and relaxing. You start your visit by going thru a 'secret garden' filled with shady plants and a water feature. Then you come up to a peaceful little cottage that is so tastefully finished with thoughtful details and design that you never want to leave! You must experience how special it is! A wonderful home away from home!!

Just a wonderful place to stay! Gorgeous surroundings... from the flower filled grounds to the well appointed cottage itself. Lovely neighborhood and lovely host. Would stay here every time!

I rented Kirsten’s one bedroom cottage while moving out of the house I sold nearby. Sleeping and relaxing in this wonderful and quiet house is lovely. The busy-ness of everyday life is put in perspective. Everything you need is beautifully organized. Very comfortable bed, up-to-date appliances and gas fireplace. I loved the high ceilings, many skylights, large sliding glass doors and the private terrace. The cottage has perfect lighting options for both day and night - feels like every moment is a special occasion. Enjoy your stay!

This back house with its own private garden is in a charming neighborhood in Redwood City. The owner has provided for everything with great style - you feel at home immediately. We will go back and stay longer - super location in between the airport and Silicon Valley.

Kirsten's cottage gave me just what I needed...a lovely, comfortable and inviting respite from a stressful situation. It was the perfect environment to work, relax and recharge. Lush greenery and a private bricked patio complete this home away from home. Kirsten was welcoming and quick to respond to questions, a perfect host.

The owner is a thoughtful, artful person who has considered every comfort and convenience possible. The "cabin" is spotless, bright, comfortable, airy, spacious, convenient, fresh, and beautiful and is set in the most fabulous, verdant garden. The check-in was seamless. This is a extraordinary place to stay. I am trying to figure out when I can go again.

The cottage is exactly like the pictures. It's charming, clean, and well stocked. The bed is super comfortable. It's located in a lovely, quiet neighborhood that's convenient to shopping. The owner is wonderful and thoughtful. This place is fantastic and I feel really lucky to have found it! I would recommend it without hesitation.

Cottage is comfortable and quiet. It is professionally decorated. Cottage has a full service kitchen (Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods close by) and also laundry facilities located in bathroom. Comfortable seating for 5 in living room and it is the perfect place to have a few friends over for dinner. You will get a “Good Night’s Sleep” on the mattress and black-out drapes in the bedroom are also helpful. Enjoy the private patio for relaxing, dining and grilling. If you like to go out to eat, many wonderful restaurants are close by. Places to visit: Palo Alto Farmer’s Market on Sunday’s, Manresa Bread in Los Altos (best croissants and bread in bay area), Mayfield Bakery & Cafe in Palo Alto (best breakfast), Sancho’s Tagueria in Redwood City, Allied Arts Guild (gardens and craft shops) Menlo Park, Cantor Arts Center at Stanford We enjoyed the wonderful weather (even in August). Location is perfect, San Francisco and San Jose both 30 minute drive (check traffic) and San Francisco International Airport even closer. Also perfect weekend getaway for people in the area. Wonderful location for visiting Stanford and we look forward to returning next year! Home owner is helpful and thoughtful.

Wow, this place has it all! It is a wonderful retreat, and very well furnished. Kirsten started renting last fall, after construction was completed. She really has thought of the prefect place to stay. The cottage is so well designed - bright, and cheery. The kitchen is very well furnished, and well supplied for the basics required to cook. The living room is a happy place to relax, there is a dining table between the kitchen the the living area that would make a great work desk. The lighting, and heating is perfect. A heated floor in the bathroom is an added "treat". The outside area is also beautiful and very private. Kirsten has the walk from the street to the cottage beautifully landscaped, and well lite at night. Don't pass this place up when you need to stay in the area for at least 6 days, you won't regret it.

I stayed at this charming cottage for a week. It is brand new, decorated beautifully, and quiet and peaceful. I didn't cook much, but the kitchen was fully equipped. The bed was very comfortable, and the heated bathroom floor was a delightful luxury. Kirsten was a very pleasant host. I highly recommend this rental.

Truly first-class accommodations. Brand new, beautifully furnished, fully equipped and very private. Has all the amenities anyone would want. Kristen was a very attentive host.

My wife and I spent a month in this lovely cottage. Recently built, it has all modern amenities, a well-equipped kitchen, a small dishwasher and a washer/dryer. It has a separate bedroom, with a lot of natural light. It is very quiet and private. The owner was readily available and responsive. All of the above made for a pleasant stay. We recommend it and will stay there again.

My husband and I needed a rental nearby while our house was being remodeled. We were lucky to get this for a month, and would have stayed another month had it been available! It's a gem. Kirsten is wonderfully responsive if you need anything. But the cottage is truly fully equipped, so you won't need much. She's a designer and it's beautiful and has lots of natural light. It also has a lovely patio and it is quiet enough to also work there during the day, which is what we needed. Everything is brand new as it was recently built. Enjoy!
