From the moment we checked in to Ed's house we knew it was going to be special. Ed was a great host and lived up to who I thought he would be based on our pre-occupancy emails. The house is wonderful, is fully equipped and in a great location just off of College Street nearby many of Berkeley and Oakland's best restaurants. Ed facilitated parking for our rental car by pre-purchasing our parking permits for us for the month we were there. In all this was a 5-star place to stay. No doubt we will be returning!

Enjoyed Christmas and New Years in Rockridge!

We have stayed at Ed’s lovely home several times and always enjoyed it. Rockridge is a wonderful, vibrant neighborhood. Ed’s home is situated right off College Ave and very close to where our daughter’s family lives. We kitchen is well appointed and TV etc work great. We unreservedly recommend this lovely VRBO.

New house; great location

All new and very clean. Excellent location near all the restaurants and shops of College Avenue, in Rockridge. Ed was a super host, responded quickly every time we contacted him. This was our 2nd stay at this lovely home.

Wonderful Rockridge Home

Conflicted about writing a review because I want it to be available the next time we visit Rockridge. This is head and shoulders above other homes we’ve visited. Spacious, comfortable, clean, equipped with everything you need in a great location.

About the host

Hosted by Edward King

I grew in Southern California and worked as a commercial diver in Norway- the North Sea, Brunei (Borneo)-South China Sea, and Papua New Guinea-Coral Sea for 7 years. Have lived in Berkeley/Oakland since 1982 and currently live in the new ADU behind the new Airbnb House. I absolutely love being in this neighborhood, and I spend a lot of time bike riding in the hills east of Oakland and fishing/surfing in the Bay/Ocean.
