Wonderful location.
This is a nice sunny spot with a lovely shared patio. The location is amazing in NOPA. Great restaurants from walking distance. Wonderful grocery store on Divisadero. The hosts were more then delightful. They went beyond and above in being helpful. It also has laundry site on property.

Russ was such a great host. He is kind and a great communicator. He was mindful of our needs during the stay and was very responsive. The inside of the cottage is decorated well and comfortable. Thank you Russ!

Great Stay at Lone Mountain
We spent a month at Lone Mountain for the birth of grandchild. The location was great - close to our family but also grocery shopping and parks. With COVID, we did not take advantage of the many restaurants close by, but did do some takeout. Our 2 year old grandchild spent several days a week with us and really enjoyed playing on the patio. The beds were super comfortable - something you don’t always find in a vacation rental. The location in the backyard of the main property made for more privacy from the street and the two floors made the unit feel larger. The kitchen and bathrooms were very updated and nice. Russ was very responsive to our questions. We would certainly stay at Lone Mountain again for an extended trip to San Francisco.
