With a few exceptions, my experiences have been positive. However, none has topped the wonderful get-away we had in Lea's cottage. The scent of redwoods and flowers greeted us, accompanied by the sounds of the flowing creek. The cottage itself was welcoming: meticulously clean, equipped with everything we might have needed and much more. My only caveat: make sure Google takes you to the correct address. ##### Susan C.

Wow, did we score. The Cottage in the Woods is a perfect getaway for two. The Cottage looks like new, is very well appointed and stocked with items you seldom see in a vacation rental. The location, right beside La Honda Creek is lovely. The creek provides all of the white noise you need and the breeze through the redwoods and pine is soothing. In all, a great place to relax, and Lea is the perfect host with weath of knowledge about the area. If going on a nice sunny weekend, you may be well advised to plan on hanging out at the cottage as the roads are very twisty and full of people with more unmuffled horsepower than sense. Weekdays are a joy, less noise and roads are fine to drive to the beach or up Skyline Drive. ##### Ronald B. Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tina B.

Aug 2, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### high up there The cottage was located on a California Mountain which was just a few miles from the Pacific Ocean on the West, and Palo Alto on the east. The drive was on a very steep and winding road that took some getting used to. Also, do not make our mistake and try to use Waze to find the place. Google Maps works. The weather was beautiful- AMs in the high 50s, afternoons sunny around 80. Immediately adjacent is a trickling brook, the only noise save for the occasional vehicle on the road. Very clean and dry air. The hosts were available and very friendly, and kept it very clean. It was just right for us to commute some days to Palo Alto but unwind in total peace in the afternoons and evenings. ##### Jeffrey D. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paul E. Jul 14, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### The Cabin Anyone Would Love to Stay At! The location of the property is well suited to exploring California’s coastal areas and foothills. The cabin exterior doesn’t do justice to the hospitality within. We found the cabin cozy and friendly, with an interior that is lively, open, uncluttered, with natural lighting, and unobtrusive reminders to relax and enjoy the setting. There are all the amenities of a best-in-class VRBO. The deck off the back sits next to small brook that makes the perfect spot to have a glass of wine and enjoy the natural setting and seclusion. We usually try to meet the host to thank them for the stay, but a change to our itinerary didn’t make that possible. None the less, she made efforts to make sure we were comfortable and taken care of. ##### Paul E. Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gregorio M.

The personal touches abound and everything you need to feel at home is already provided. Comfort, relaxation, and hiking adventure is at your immediate discretion in either the comfy bed, outdoor deck overlooking a babbling stream, or the redwood forests in which this cottage is located. Every appliance was in perfect working order, the kitchen fully-equipped, and the bathroom fully-stocked with everything but the most personal preference in linens and toiletries.

I can’t say enough about this property and our host, Lea. We needed a place to stay in the area during the Christmas holiday that was near my parents’ house in Portola Valley. The cottage exceeded our expectations. It was super clean and beautiful inside. The hosts went above and beyond by providing a lot of extras. There were eggs, butter, milk, coffee, snacks, and much more. The kitchen was spacious and very well stocked and had everything we needed to make a meal. We enjoyed sitting on the deck by the creek - so peaceful! Communication with Lea was great! We enjoyed chatting with her on our last day. She is a wealth of knowledge about the home and the area. Make sure to go to Alice’s! We love that place. We also went to San Gregorio Beach for a short hike on Christmas morning. Only about 20 minutes away. Great stay! We hope to be back! ##### Julia J.
