Group of friends came to town for a long weekend and a concert at The Greek theater on UC Berkeley campus. Neighborhood was great with lots of walking options for groceries, restaurants, etc. and we were able to walk to/from campus as well. The house was very comfortable for all of us and we loved the charm it had. ##### Allison B.

The bed was comfortable and the rooms large. The kitchen looks small, but had exactly everything we needed to cook a delicious dinner. The home itself feels like you are part of the fabric of Berkeley, with it‘s shingles and craftsman styling inside. Location is awesome. Walk to 3 great coffee spots! ##### Alison Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jana C. 26 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### The Wedding Prep Place The Oak House was a great location for a bride, bridesmaid, mother of the bride and aunt of the bride to get ready for a Saturday wedding in Tilden Park! So much natural light in the big open front room and open area for relaxing and socializing. I promise it wasn’t a party, just a few family members enjoying each other’s company and celebrating love. ##### Jana C. Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Larissa S. 29 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Charming Historic Home Staying in this home was like taking a trip back to the early 1900s - truly historic. We loved that about it. The bedrooms are upstairs so if you have difficulty navigating stairs please keep that in mind. It was great to have a parking spot in the driveway. The house was not clean when we arrived due to a miscommunication with the manager of the house but a quick call to her (Maritza) and the cleaning crew came right away; it was ok since we had things to do. Elmwood is a lovely neighborhood and felt safe to us. We would definitely stay here again. ##### Larissa S. Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Jenny E. 7 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect location Great spot to visit with local friends. We happened to hit the unusual, excessive heat, which was hard in an older house, but with a couple of fans everything would have been perfect ##### Jenny E. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Kathryn T. 6 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful location Stayed with friends. We were all in town for an event. The place was great but the keyless entry did not work. Fortunately there was a key on the property and it worked out fine. Easy walk to lots of yummy food and Cal campus. ##### Kathryn T. Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Wendy O. 22 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Moved across country Perfect house for us as we moved our son from the east coast to attend Berkeley Law. Plenty of space to store all the things we needed to acquire and park the large SUV we rented to move him. The only issue we encountered was the keyless entry was not working and the physical key was so well hidden that finding it at midnight when we arrived was not easy. ##### Wendy O. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2024 ---
