Lasting memories for vacations, short stays and corporate housing

* Scroll to very end for info on (a) Animals & (b) Ethernet

Welcome to your tranquil suburban escape from the big city. A whole house rental located in an upscale hamlet within driving or transit distance of San Francisco, this house is ideal for guests desiring a safer, more spacious alternative to staying overnight in the city. Perched on nearly a quarter-acre of a tree-lined street, we have welcomed guests from around the world and locals visiting family or having their nearby homes built, renovated or repaired. Step inside a turn-key ready home-away-from-home, fully remodeled in recent years. Equipped as a turn-key house with the belief that in today's digital era, life and work naturally follow us anywhere we go, this property features a respectable office setup with at least one Aeron Chair alongside a zen setting to relax and unwind. From an expansive backyard to an attentive host, fine attention is paid to detail. Guests of all backgrounds are genuinely welcome, as are work groups. As a universally welcoming host to all, The Zen House (my house) reflects my personal ethos of welcoming guests of all backgrounds in a non-judgmental, non-discriminatory, welcoming and happy environment. As a professional Property Manager for a decade and the owner of The Zen House going for nearly 40 years, I maintain The Zeen House in immaculate condition. However, should anything arise from a "concierge" question to an issue with your stay,, I am reachable, even at late hours (24/7) to ensure every effort is made for you to have a safe, seamless and memorable experience before your departure.

One unique aspect of staying in my home is there is no cleaning fee. Since the amazing guests I have hosted frequently leave the home tidy and fairly clean on their own, even though there is NO CLEANING REQUIREMENT (nor any expectation and same with laundry), I do not apply this fee unless there are pets.. For as long as this continues, we will not charge any cleaning fee for your stay.

*Special Notes:

(1) We are pleased to have Ethernet at 3 access points in the home. It was installed for a special guest as their WFH (Work-from-Home) required Ethernet for a higher-level of security than traditional wifi. **However, Ethernet is *not* listed as an offered amenity. This is because the host has not personally used it. to confirm it works, so you are welcome to use the Ethernet, but the host does not make ANY promises or warranty as to whether or not this functions. Should this be a key issue in your reservation, please advise, so this option can be investigated furthe to ensure a seamless stay.

(2) Animals & Pets are considered on a case-by-case basis AFTER answering a list of questions.. When pets are allowed, this is **BEFORE** booking *ONLY*. YOU CANNOT ADD ANY PET *AFTER* BOOKING. INSTANT BOOKING WITH PETS ARE NOT VALID AND MAY BE SUBJECT TO CANCELLATION AT THE HOSTS SOLE DISCRETION AND WITHOUT PENALTY TO HOST. THERE ARE INCREASING BREED LIMITATINGS, ESPECIALLY PERTAINING TO DOG WHO ARE A "MIX" or "MIXED" breeds. IT IS VITAL THAT YOU PROMPTLY ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS FULLY SO THAT WE CONSULT WITH OUR INSURANCE REPRESENTATIVE TO CONFIRM WE CAN HOST YOUR FOUR-LEGGED FRIEND. Please understand, we did not enact the insurance carrier's rules, which can get very involved. We do our best to host all guests, including animals, despite ever-changing insurance rules on pets. To date we have successfully hosted several dogs and 3 cats.

**SPECIAL PET HOUSE RULE: Dogs and pets must be contained indoors (not outside) for about 1-1/4 days per week to accommodate the gardener (1/4 day) and the on-property garbage service (up to one day a week, lately a 1/4 to 1/2 day a week, but no advance guarantee. . We coordinate this the best with you to minimize your pet's time out of our expansive yard.

(3) Contact host for pricing modifications on stays > 45 consecutive nights. Discounts under that length of stay have already been factored into our pricing months in advance (and some pricing > 45 days has already been factored in to our pricing).

Please feel welcome to inquire, tell us about yourself or family / work group / group that will be staying at The Zen House.

I am available and reachable, even at late hours to ensure every effort is made for you to have a safe, seamless and memorable experience Thank you for your interest in my restful, upscale Executive Home!


Guests have stayed with for a variety of purposes:

- Remodels to guests' homes (or portions of projects).

- Work Groups (has ranged from underground piping tradespersons to a group of out-of-town trial attorneys with a local jury trial).

- Divorce co-parenting compliance. This is often when a parent lives out of state and needs a fun, executive-family house to host their children. (We have also hosted marital seperations, one crediting their review left on another platform to their successful spousal reunification following a 3 month respite at The Zen House).

- Insurance-covered losses in their own homes (eg, water, fire) under the "ALE" (Additional Living Expense) coverage on their homeowner's policy or labeled "LOU" (Loss of Use) with other carriers. Insurance usually tries to send the uninformed policyholder to a 3rd party "Housing Intermediary Company" (placement firm) which simply sends you a link to an app to chose from a hotel in the area. That really does not work well for the guests that we have hosted. The sole reason they got to stay at the Zen House is they either assertively advocated for themselves with the Claims Representative, the Property Claims Manager/Claims Examiner *and* also with the carrier's contracted "intermediary housing providers" (the company that sends you the hotel booking app valid for hotels they have pre-negotiated discounts with). Many carriers no longer pay for *ANY* bookings. Our last couple of insurance-related guests found their hotel rooms or undersized suites incompatible for their families needs and paid out-of-pocket. To our knowledge, all were ultimately reimbursed in full after booking, paying direct and holding the insurance carrier to their contractual obligations.

- Vacationers to the SF Bay Area looking for a safer alternative to staying in the SF/Oakland areas and want more than a box-sized hotel room.

- Guests here to visit family, whether for the weekend, a holiday or a little bit longer.

- Graduations.

- Work Groups, including Boeing, construction crews and an out-of-area law firm with a local jury trial.

- We warmly welcome guests from all backgrounds.

- This income-generating residence offers the opportunity for interested, prospective to book a stay in the house before they buy. House w tentatively slates to be sold by end of Summer 2025.

* We are unable to host ANY person of *any* age (INCLUDING MINORS) who has stayed at The Zen House within the prior THIRTY (30) DAYS. Any such reservation is subject to being null and voided immediately, without *ANY* refund and must pay reimbursement to the host for and fees or costs incurred to the Host by the Platform, to include platform-imposed charges. (This is entirely separate from requesting to extend a reservation prior to check out. This applies to return visits within a thirty (30) day period of last checking out).

Thank you for visiting The Zen House online. We look forward to welcoming you inside!

Amazing!
We had a wonderful stay at the Zen House. The house has everything anyone could possibly need. Our family of 5 and dog stayed and we were very comfortable. The neighborhood is very nice and the backyard is incredible. The hosts are so thoughtful and went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable. The check in and out process was incredibly easy. We are so thankful to have found this home and are looking forward to staying again soon.

Incredible Experience
This home is even far better than advertised. The home is gorgeous and so spacious. I stayed with my sister, mom, husband and our two dogs and there was plenty of room for all of us. The house was extremely clean and well stocked for anything you may need. The backyard is truly an escape with gorgeous landscaping and a bench around a stunning tree that we could sit under and relax. The dogs loved the backyard and it was fully secure so there was no way they could get out. When we walked around the neighborhood it was breathtaking with all the trees and wildflowers. The location is near by so many shops and restaurants and some UNBELIEVABLE hiking trails. However, what really made this place one of the best experiences I have had was the personal touches from the owners. They left chocolates, toiletries, lights on, air set to what you prefer, water in the fridge and I could go on and on. They even left one of the most delicious pies I have ever had! They were the most communicative hosts I have ever had. We had some issues with booking because of the website and they navigated it flawlessly and professionally. We were lucky enough to meet them upon arrival and they were so helpful and truly the nicest people I have ever come across in my life. We all can't wait to stay here again.

A++ Stay for Insurance ALE Family & Pets
As a housing placement specialist for a large ALE company, Ann is the most professional host I have had the pleasure of working with in 2-1/2 years. She took in a family on displaced from a house flood on 18-hours notice and still offered the family early checking, leaving the distraught family home baked goods and toys for the small children and - the next day Amazon delivered age appropriate books for the children. Ann was always reachable and invited the family to call anytime "just to talk" during this ordeal as they were out of their home. The family expressed the heartfelt thanks for Ann's assistance during this ordeal and for making an exception to her 2 pet policy to accommodate all 3 of family's pets. This meant the world to the family. I will be sharing Ann's property with members on my team and look forward to placing more local families at her house.

Our Best Vrbo Experience!
Our family thoroughly enjoyed every minute of our stay in Ann's Contemporary Executive Ranch home. We really enjoyed the newly remodeled kitchen, the skylights throughout the home bringing sun inside and the expansive backyard which our dogs were able to enjoy and play in with the children. Ann is the most hospitable host we have found who went out of her way to accommodate us for a last minute stay and her house was not only clean as whistle, but thoroughly sanitized ahead of our arrival. Thank you, Ann!
