Reviews
My family and I have now had the pleasure of staying in this beautiful homes many times, and we truly consider it a home away from home. This was our third summer, and we loved being reacquainted with all our favorite things--long walks on the beach and in the Presidio, neighborhood restaurants, cooking fresh vegetables and fruits from the nearby farmers market--but also, as my sons have grown older and COVID restrictions lifted, had new adventures in the city and across the bridge in Marin. The owners of this elegant and impeccable property are consistently welcoming and attentive to every detail. The property manager is lovely, and always available, professional and helpful. We are already looking forward to our next visit!

We decided to spend a month in San Francisco in advance of our son’s wedding. One night during Covid, I was looking around at VRBO listings and in one very very lucky click, found this dreamy, magnificent home. Other renters have mentioned all the attributes - incredible walk everywhere location, the most magnificent decor, furnishings and finishes, the fabulous outdoor spaces and the warmth of the owners Glenn and Theresa and Lorri, the house manager. The views !!!! You’ve never seen anything as magical. Within a short time, I felt like a local, walking to get groceries, or have a great dinner. There are so many comfy gorgeous spaces in the house, it’s sometimes hard to make yourself leave to explore the city. We ( my husband, adult son and daughter-in-law) had the best month. The owners have outdone themselves, they’ve thought of anything and everything you might need or enjoy while visiting SF. Absolute perfection!

Our family has stayed at Teresa and Glenn’s home across this beautiful and historical park at least one month a year since 2014 and it has become something we all look forward to every year. There will not be enough superlatives to describe this home, and the consistency with which everything is beautifully in place is simply remarkable. We are so grateful for another memorable stay. We will be visiting again soon.

We spent August for the 2nd year in a row here. The home was impeccable. Lorri, the house Manager, and the Gilliams create a wonderful experience in this meticulously maintained home. Every attention to detail has been addressed to create an outstanding stay. The home and location are second to none, with an abundance of restaurants, shops, hiking, walking, and biking experiences close by. The views of the Palace of Fine Arts are phenomenal. The Presidio and Marina are 2 blocks away, plus you are walking or biking distance to the Golden Gate Bridge, Ghirardelli Square, and Fishermen’s Wharf. We will look forward to returning.

We travel extensively using sites like VRBO, and this was by far the best home we have rented in 12 years!. The attention to detail by the owners, and care taker are outstanding. The location, views, neighborhood, and home were all top notch! We will defiantly be back, as this experience was world class. Thank you so much for letting us stay in your wonderful home!

We travel extensively and we've stayed in some of the finest hotels and resorts the world over. Now that we have a young child, we decided to do something different. So we rented this house in San Francisco for a month with the intent to become "temporary locals." What a wonderful experience it was!
The house itself is perfectly sized, clean and well-appointed which made us feel immediately at home. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything one could possibly need. We cooked daily and even made cupcakes. The location of the house was key for us. It is well-located within the Marina District allowing for easy walks to a gym, restaurants, shopping, grocery stores and many other services. An unexpected surprise -- one that we enjoyed very much -- was the people watching we did from our living room. The house has spectacular views of the Palace of Fine Arts and with those views came people from all walks of life. We lost count of how many brides in their wedding gowns chose the Palace of Fine Arts for their wedding photos!
All in all, it was a fabulous experience for our family.
