Holiday rentals with lake access in San Francisco Bay Area

This house was amazing and super clean. The view was incredible. We very much enjoyed our family event of 3 days. I would highly recommend this place.

Great place and just as described. Perfect location with anything you need within a few minutes drive.

Rin’s place is amazingly beautiful. It is situated near to Target, many eateries, pharmacies and gas stations. The house was clean and very comfortable (just like photos). Kitchen equipped with cooking spices and appliances. Host was responsive and friendly. Would highly recommend to book Rin’s place.

Place was amazing the wife and kids did not want to leave…had fun fishing from the docks out back…nice and peaceful place💜

The view looking out into the woods and river from the living room is absolutely breathtaking. We stayed in late April and it was a bit rainy so it wasn’t feasible to enjoy the river, but the location more than made up for it. The proximity to Armstrong Redwoods, Jenner, and several charming nearby towns made for a perfect mix of hiking, beach walks, and exploring local spots.

Carlos was very gracious and responsive. We met informally on the walkway into the house and he was friendly and shared the history of the house. There are many unique decorative objects in the house from Bali and other travels. The setting is homey and cultured at the same time. We had a minor accident on the stairs and Carlos was right there with offers of assistance. All was well, and his response was kind and reassuring.

lake was beautiful and the house iss spotless .everything was beautiful. Thank you for letting us stay.

Beautiful, clean, spacious home right on the lake. Excellent outdoor patio and seating area with a well maintained private dock. Plenty of parking. We will be staying here again next year.

Gustavo made me feel right at home! The washer and dryer work great, the bed is so comfortable and the bathroom is wonderful. Easy to get in and out and you have so much less than 5 minutes away (target, Walmart, chipotle, Starbucks etc.) Highly recommend and would love to come back

Terrific place! Very comfortable and in a fantastic location. Talitha and Allen are outstanding hosts.

Belinda's place was worthy of all of the 5 stars I just submitted. We were entirely pleased with all aspects of her home and our stay. If it matters to future travelers, there are 45 steps from the sidewalk to the front door. We managed these steps, but there is no getting around them.

Great place in a beautiful neighborhood. Just what we wanted. Among other things, the kitchen was great and well-supplied, including coffee, fruit, bottled water, and a bottle of wine! We felt very welcome and will certainly try to rent it again when we're back in Oakland.

I've stayed at LaurieAnn's several times and this continues to be my first choice whenever I'm in the Bay Area. LaurieAnn was very responsive to all my needs, as always. Perfect for a mobile single senior traveler. Highly recommended.

Kyle is an amazing host. Friendly, reasonable and super prompt. It felt like he was right there with us. We definitely felt like this was a great place for us. Kyle was truly invested in us having a good experience and it showed in all our messages. The place has everything for a short and long term stay and is close to restaurants, grocery stores and the beach. Great spot overall!

Wonderful spot right on the lake. Next door to a free boat ramp. 4 minute drive to a bunch of restaurants and parks. Also the inside was all newly remodeled, very modern kitchen and bathroom. Will likely be coming back.

Perfect place for a visit for a wedding. Lots of walkable access to stores and restaurants and lake Merritt. Hosts are very responsive and helpful.

We had such a great time!! The amenities were so amazing! Paddle boats, kayaks, stand up paddle boards, fishing poles were so amazing! We did not leave except to go to the bait and tackle store! It was amazing! They were so kind and attentive! we had a wonderful time

We have stayed at this cottage multiple times, and plan on returning many more. Although I stay at other AirBnb’s throughout the country for work, nothing compares to this Manchester Cottage for vacation. The host has the hosting process done to a T. The entire experience, from start to finish was flawless. Other hosts should take note on how to do it properly. The private beach access is definitely the coup de grace of the entire experience, but the fully equipped kitchen is runner up. With 3 sons, having a functional kitchen is a must. Not to mention the gas grill on the deck near the hot tub. Just writing the review makes me want to book my next visit! We look forward to our next visit. Thank you!

I don't think I have enough characters available to describe this experience! We use Airbnb often and this was our best one! First, the host Jeffrey was fantastic. So helpful and communicative. But this home is just a magical place. If you're looking for a very private experience, but still close to the city... this fits the bill. I don't think the photos posted do it justice compared to the in-person experience. The house-keeping crew is perfection... you wouldn't know someone ever visited before you. Everything was immaculately clean. The kitchen has every amenity you would ever need. Blankets, linens, and towels were abundant. Our group had the most wonderful time... thank you Jeffrey and Trey for sharing your home with travelers. We enjoyed the added bonus of wildlife encounters each day as well! I am sharing the link to this property with everyone I know!

Such a beautiful, secluded stay. We brought all our food and cooked in the well stocked kitchen and outdoor grill. We loved the pool table and piano upstairs. The beach is stunning. And the view — second to none! Can’t wait to return.

Amazing location right by the lakeside and a beautiful well-equipped house. We could see ducks and swans coming out of the water onto the backyard right from the dining table! Would love to come here again. Thanks for being a great host, Barbara.

We loved the property and its proximity to the water and two large beaches. The house itself is thoughtfully decorated and has the furnishings and supplies just like it would if someone actually lived there rather than the typical Airbnb “shell” that only has the bare necessities (or less). We did have an unfortunate complication that occurred when we arrived. Things happen, but what matters more than anything is how a host handles an unexpected event. Jay was kind, understanding, and empathetic and did everything needed to make things right. We will absolutely be back.

We had a great time chilling at the house. The house is clean and quiet with stunning right outside the window. Furnitures are clean and the kitchen is well stocked with what we need. Quincy is thoughtful to leave some blankets and poop bags for pet clients. Our pup loves the rock outside the house. Recommend the place and will book again.

We had a wonderful time at Carolyn’s place. We loved spending a day on her deck overlooking the lake - so beautiful. We also took advantage of her fire table out front. She also had a sturdy fold out table for dining - we initially didn’t see it in the pictures but she actually had everything we needed to enjoy a full meal around a table. Bonus points that we could fold it away for more space when not using! Carolyn was also very responsive and checked in daily on how we were doing. Would love to come back!
