This was our second stay here and we absolutely love this place. The location is fantastic, the home is very clean, and the kitchen is stocked with everything we need to cook meals. And you really can walk to the zoo! There’s plenty of space for our family to spread out and relax, and the host is wonderful—very responsive and helpful if anything comes up. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

What a wonderful stay at City Haven II! The host, Teresa, was delightfully welcoming. The house is comfortable, beautiful, exceptionally clean and well appointed. We found everything we needed and more. It was nice to have a reserved parking space and for us, the location was conveniently located near family and friends. Despite being on a busy street, it was very quiet and peaceful. We would definitely stay there again.

Teressa is very responsive. The house is nice and clean and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. I just wish I had figured out how to use Netflix on the TV—it gave me a bit of trouble—but overall it was a well-organized and pleasant stay.

About the host

Hosted by Teresa Simon

Host profile image
City Haven II was built in response to the positive feedback we received from the original City Haven (no longer an active listing).

These homes are part of a love story that started back in 2004 when I purchased this house. The following year, my now husband moved from New York and bought the house next door. When we met, I asked him to move his garbage cans out of my driveway. But soon I started asking him to salsa dancing. And then he asked me to dinner. We fell in love! The man who bought the house next door married the girl next door (me!). Two kids and a few years later, we kept the homes a rentals and moved a few blocks North.

I left my job at Microsoft and we started buffing, remodeling, scraping and decorating these homes we've come to love. City Haven II is the result of a recent remodel that's turned this old 1920's Craftsman into a modern beauty with period charm.

We're Team Simon and our whole family works to make this a place you'll love to call home for a while. We love it! And we hope you'll love it, too.

Why they chose this property

We bought this home for the same reason you'll want to stay here.... close to Green Lake (swimming, paddle boats, golf)! Close to the Zoo (animals, outdoor summer concerts)! Grocery store 3 blocks away (last minute wine and snacks)! Right next to the express bus to downtown and close to all the great restaurants in Fremont (cook, schmook... let's go out to eat)! It's the perfect centralized hub to live like a local while still being close to everything the downtown area has to offer. Home away from home!

What makes this property unique

Have a large group visiting the area? Rent both City Haven (vrbo 585829) and City Haven II (741854). There's enough room between the two homes to accommodate 10 people. Please ask for more info or check availability through our updated calendars in both listings.
