About this property

Spacious Alameda Cottage with Private Garden

  • Welcome to a spacious and peaceful one-bedroom cottage tucked behind a beautiful 1908 Victorian in Alameda’s historic Gold Coast neighborhood. With 860 square feet of living space, the Cottage comfortably accommodates up to five guests and offers a charming blend of French country style and modern convenience.



    Inside, you’ll find a full kitchen, in-unit washer and dryer, fast Wi-Fi, Smart TV, heating, portable air conditioning, and a private entrance. Outside, enjoy your own fully fenced backyard with outdoor dining and seating—a relaxing place for morning coffee, an afternoon in the garden, or time with your pets.



    Crown Memorial State Beach, neighborhood cafés, restaurants, and grocery stores are nearby. San Francisco, Berkeley, downtown Oakland, and Oakland Airport are also conveniently accessible.



    The Cottage and Victorian are separate, private rentals. The courtyard between the two homes is the only shared outdoor space. Parties and events are not permitted.





    Many guests accredited our place as the best cottages in the region. We are taking pride and will continue uphold this standard.

It was a nicely maintained property that was clean and accommodated our group of three. We walked around Alameda for three days and this property was a perfect place to come "home" to. Having Lady Bird coffee around the corner was so convenient. Uber and lift were easily accessed to and from the ferries to San Fransisco.

Excellent getaway from the madness and congestion of nearby Bay Area cities. Plenty of room in the kitchen to cook and the two beds were very comfortable! And two well designed dog parks were blocks away, one for bigger dogs and another for smaller ones. The neighborhood was great for walks as well.

We really enjoyed this separate cottage at the back of a lovely Victorian home. It’s located on a quiet street about a 10-15 minute walk to lots of shops and restaurants. Parking was easy. We would come back again.

The cottage in Alameda exceeded expectations in every way: Light and airy inside, a good-sized bath off the bedroom with a large living room work area in the front of the hone. Updates to the kitchen make it a pleasure for cooking and eating. Even a washer and dryer for us to wash clothes and the sheets at the end of our first week of stay. Nearby coffee shop on Central Ave with Webster St. services within walking distance. Five stars all around.

We were in Berkeley for just a couple of days and stayed in this home for one night. It was my first time booking a home, and we really enjoyed our stay. The house is beautiful and perfectly decorated. Everything you need for a comfortable and welcoming stay is provided. There’s a washer, dryer, dishwasher, and all the essential kitchen items. The towels and paper products were arranged in a very thoughtful and decorative way, and the cottage also has a lovely private backyard. The beds were also very comfortable. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. We would definitely recommend staying here!

This property is overrated. There was a small dog barking at night and starting at 6:30 in the morning during my time at this cottage. Most the time someone was starting their car approximately 10 feet away from the bedroom window and leaving.For ice in the freezer, there was a used bag of crushed ice with no ice maker or trays.The air conditioner/heater stopped working after the second day. I reported all of this to the host.

Perfect Stay

Love this rental for numerous reasons! Location is ideal. (Short walk to Lazy Bird coffee for those who enjoy that!) Wonderful neighborhood with gorgeous homes and gardens. The cottage feels large for a one bedroom. Kitchen is beautiful and well appointed! Bed was so comfy! TV with plenty of offerings, WIFI was fast, shower great, (living room furniture is adequate but not "comfy" per se). Overall, a wonderful stay and a darling rental that met our needs extremely well! Love Alameda!
