Stanford/Palo Alto Family Weekend

The location is perfect for visiting Stanford University. Having bikes available made the logistics of our weekend much simpler. Shelly was responsive and helpful. Everyone went easily and smoothly. The home is cozy and comfortable.

Wonderful stay

We stayed here so my son can attend a sports camp at Stanford and this was the perfect place. It was walking distance. The place was exactly what was described. We were so comfortable and it had all the amenities we needed. Would definitely stay here again when coming back to the area.

Nice stay but wish it was more clean

good location, overall nice set up. But would have appreciated if it was cleaner . huge stains on chair and couch and towels, many of the plates and bowls had residue food on them from previous guests.

Great place close to Stanford campus

We were able to walk to athletics events on the Stanford campus just across El Camino Real, and we were in very short driving (or biking) distance from Town & Country Village and its shopping/dining options, as well as downtown. The place itself was perfect for us: two large bedrooms with very comfortable beds and nice towels/bedding/robes, plus a large, sunny bathroom with lots of hot water in the walk-in shower. There was room for friends to join us for drinks and socialize in the living area (and a big screen for the Olympics). We found a bottle of wine chilling in the refrigerator, as well as some coffee, water and snacks. The location at the back of the property was very quiet, and we enjoyed pretending we lived in Palo Alto for a few days. Thank you for a lovely visit.
