Guests can access the cottage through a separate entrance on the property, behind the main house. There will be a host in the area or in the main house to help you should anything arise during your stay. My two children sometimes play in the yard or basketball in the drive. There's a sweet and gentle dog, Penny, who lives on the premises - she might say hello and then leave you alone. The cottage is in the Mt. Carmel neighborhood, a peaceful setting in the flatlands of Redwood City. There are tree-lined streets, flowers, and friendly neighbors—perfect for walking, running, and biking.

Walk, bike or drive to downtown Redwood City, just .6 miles away. 30 minute drive to the top of Skyline Drive to get away from it all for a run, hike or drive through the wooded hills overlooking the Valley and the Pacific Ocean.
