    We have enjoyed hosting out-of-town guests since 1994. Here's what some of them had to say:

    "Such a nice respite after intense days of tourism. Thanks for your hospitality and your homey touches."

    "Thank you for your stylish, comfortable apartment, beautiful garden, fine food and kind hospitality. We couldn't have hoped for a more enjoyable stay."

    "We found a home away from home. Really wish we were staying longer."

    "Thank you for the delightful oasis. The granola, cranberry bread, and the peacefulness have made our stay regenerative. Hope to return like so many of your visitors have."

    "Where else can you reach outside your bedroom window and pick oranges from a tree? Where else can you kick off your shoes and feel as if you're home?"

    Discover Oakland's captivating mix of modern and historic. The city has an abundance of intriguing, enlightening, and just plain fun things to see and do for people of all ages and interests.
