Nestled in the Woods
A beautiful & peaceful place! View is great. Saw some deer & wild turkeys roaming around. Super-quiet too. Did some grilling-but had to change out propane tanks couple of times, as they were low & had a time using the starter button. But did manually. Would certainly recommend this lovely place!

Friends gathering
We enjoyed our stay on Cobb Mt. We were visiting to attend a friends gathering at a house close by. We did have some issues with the house, but the owner was very responsive and understanding. The house is tucked away in a quiet neighborhood on Cobb Mt. The kitchen definitely needs some upgrading, but the living area was comfortable. We spent a fair amount of time on the outdoor deck.

NICE MTN CABIN
It's a pleasant mountain cabin. Could use some modernization, especially in the kitchen. No dishwasher (not a surprise) and cupboards don't close, drawers fall out, etc. The driveway is very steep and rugged, but we had a Suburban and it did fine.

Great Place for Get-Away
Our family, six adults, stayed for two nights, it was a very good experience. The house conveniently sits on a quiet street, just a few minutes from grocery store, restaurants. You can reach the hiking trails from the back yard, very nice. The place is very clean, owner was very responsive, always available when needed. We really enjoyed out staying!

Peaceful Getaway
Situated right next to a forest area, had lots of deer and even a wild turkey right outside our window. Beautiful fall foliage and crisp clean air. The only thing to be mindful of is a steep driveway for parking. Near Clear Lake and state park and fun winding country roads.

quiet & relaxing
Our group had a great stay at this mountain home. The beds were very comfortable, the deck was large and had a great view and the tasteful living room was ample to sit around and visit. On top of it all, the price was reasonable, something increasingly rare these days. I hope to be back again, for the great bed and the tranquility.

Perfect weekend
Great place in a wonderfully quiet setting. Really feels like home with a big deck including a gas fire pit, BBQ, great seating and a hammock. Kitchen includes coffee machine and espresso machine and all other appliances. We even found first aid stuff in the bathroom when we had a little mishap. Also, super kid friendly with lots of toys in a toy chest and books. We were in town to celebrate 2 family birthdays and this was the perfect place for entertaining and activities for all ages.

Perfect Getaway in the Pines
We had such a wonderful stay in this adorable mountain cabin. It was my family of 5, mother-in-law and parents, and we all fit so comfortably. It’s fantastic that we could all stay downstairs and my parents had the upstairs bedroom, which gave them privacy and a little peace. The kids loved the bunk beds! We all enjoyed the deck so much. We sat by the firepit sipping wine at night after a day spent with family. The wild life was also fantastic with the wild turkeys and deer. Our kids loved it. The store and yummy pizza place are very close by. We can’t wait to return for another visit. My brother lives in the area, so we will definitely be back!

Winter get away
The house was as described., very nice living/kitchen/dining room.. When we arrived there was about 18” of snow on the deck and in the driveway but couldn’t find a shovel so borrowed one from the neighbor. Enjoyed the house and fireplace through a very cold and rainy weekend. The drive up is a bit motion sickness stimulating though. All in all I recommend it. The deck would be great in better weather. Liked to watch the deer wandering about.

Cozy cabin in the woods
Enjoyed my stay with one friend. Quiet, cozy cabin. It snowed a bunch while we were there which lended to the coziness factor. The upstairs, open space, is great and, if the weather was warmer, we'd have the use of an incredibly spacious deck area. The upstairs also has the master bedroom (with a very comfy bed) and master bath (looks renovated/newer). Kitchen is well stocked with equipment and some pantry left overs (helpful). Saw a few mice droppings in the lower cabinets and it's probably hard to keep them at bay, but perhaps a more regular, and deeper, cleaning of those areas would be helpful? Very cozy and warm upstairs. To get downstairs to the other two bedrooms, you go down a metal, winding staircase. Keep this in mind for elderly or those having other types of walking issues. Wasn't a problem for us. Very cold downstairs (heat rises), so if you're there in colder months, turn on the heat right away to get it comfy. Slept well and comfortably in queen room. Quiet and dark the way I like. Bathroom could benefit from a refresh and deep cleaning. Towels could benefit from a recycle and re-new. Just a few suggestions. Great value for a cozy, charming, quiet cabin in the woods.

Great spot for a weekend away
This spot in Cobb was so quiet and felt relaxingly remote, but is just 2 hours from Oakland. The house is a simple and comfortable 2-floor lodge perched on a hill. The deck looks back over the road and neighborhood toward the mountain. This spot is close to great day hiking and a convenient well-stocked grocery store. The bedding is very comfortable and clean. The deck is gorgeous and if it wasn’t so cold, we’d have been out there for most of our stay. The kitchen was not quite as advertised but is well-stocked and had everything we needed so no complaints. There is no dishwasher. BYO shampoo & soap. The towels are in need of replacing—they’re worn thin and had holes. A great spot and a restful retreat.

Overall peaceful stay in middle of forest
The place is spacious as described, has all basic amenities. Cabin is peaceful, it’s close to a nearby trail. Saw deers in the area which was a plus!👍Only comment is to improve and organize the kitchen area. 2 drawers-by the coffee and countertop area is broken, and 1 cabinet doesn’t close properly. Supplies were all over the place, had to open so many drawers just to find specific cookware. It just looks messy, just need to organize the kitchen drawers/cabinets. I’ve also asked if it has basic supply like cooking oil, sugar etc. is included and they have all those except the olive oil I used to cook breakfast was almost used up. Bought a new bottle for myself instead. Lastly, there were many items left in fridge, I thought it should be thrown out if previous renter left them.

Nappa
We came to celebrate our anniversary. We drove each day to Nappa and one day to the Red Woods. It was great because the cabin was between the two. We only had a few small issues. A few 8 legged friends found us in the down stairs bedroom. The driveway is very steep and slightly slippery due to the pine needles...it made parking an adventure every day. The neighbor dogs had a bark off one night that luckily ended before midnight. The bathtub/shower on the main floor was tricky to enter and exit due to the depth of the tub. The lights in the refrigerator were like strobe lights.. or similar to what happens on Stranger Things ;) Otherwise The home is very nice and we enjoyed the kitchen and the fireplace every night!

Wonderful weekend Getaway
We had a wonderful stay at this lovely, well-stocked home! We checked in first, and then ran over to the market less than 5 minutes away to get food to grill, and then didn't need to leave again until checking out. Loved the fire pit and stargazing at night, and drinking coffee and reading books on the spacious deck during the day. The owner was responsive and helpful. Thank you for lovely stay!

A lovely mountain retreat
Our family of 5 adults thoroughly enjoyed our six-night stay in this charming cottage. We secured the property only few days before arriving in CA after deciding that a Tahoe trip was unworkable due to wildfire smoke. The main/upper floor with the master suite and spacious deck (fabulous outdoor living space) is the highlight of the home. We encountered some spiders on the lower level, but were delighted by the many deer who calmly wander through the neighborhood. :) Excellent communication with David as our plans evolved and also during a local power outage. Fortunately, the well-stocked local market and pizza place, just minutes away, have generators. We enjoyed hiking in the state forest behind the property, in Boggs Lake Reserve, and on Mt. Konocti, a volcano at nearby Clear Lake.

Comfortable and quiet
The Starview Lodge provided a good home base for an annual friends trip. The home - which is situated in the trees, with no close neighbors on either side - is well stocked and clean. We saw plenty of deer and wild turkeys roaming the property. The Cobb Mountain area is on the rebound after the devastating 2015 wildfires. This is a nice place for a quick getaway from the Bay Area.
