Responsive hosts, convenient location, very clean, well-appointed, comfortable, and tastefully decorated. Nice garden to sit in. Only one step up to get inside and no steps inside which was important for my elderly relative. (Just note for less mobile folks the shower is in a full tub so they may need help to navigate).
This is our third stay in Dugger's lovely home. The garden was even more beautiful than last time, and everything went very smoothly. Easy on street parking.

Great house.
Duggar met us there and showed us around the house. It made us feel like we were at a friend's house. We enjoyed the stay.

So glad you and your family enjoyed your stay at my home. My goal as a host is to make guests feel welcomed and comfortable. I am happy to hear that I was able to do that for your family. I welcome all feedback to ensure that my home has all the amenities guests need to make their stay wonderful.
We enjoyed our stay in this lovely, well-equipped home. Beautiful garden is a huge bonus. Set back from the street, the house is quiet and private. Highly recommend!
Dugger, the owner, is warm and inviting. We loved Dugger's house, it was charming, perfectly located and very pleasant. There has a lot parking in front of the house. It's a great place to call home while in Berkeley

We loved the place!
Very comfortable, homey atmosphere and so quiet despite the busy street (home is set back in the lot). Great home base to UC Berkeley and exploring the general East Bay area. Plus the owner Dugger is so helpful and welcoming. The only thing that was missing was adequate closet/drawer space for our clothing

I am so glad you enjoyed your stay. It was a pleasure meeting and hosting you. Please do stay with me again anytime. I have noted your desire to have more space for your clothing , to this end I have added a spacious double drawer dresser to the very east bedroom, in total the house will now have three spacious dressers. One dresser in each bedroom, a full closet in the middle bedroom and the closet in the hall way for hanging clothes. Thank you for mention this. Take good care, Dugger
Clean, spacious home with really nice outdoor patio space, in a quiet neighborhood within walking distance to several cute breakfast stops and close to Bart and grocery store options. This was the perfect place for my family’s five-night stay in the Bay Area to use as a quiet home base while being able to get to San Francisco and other areas easily. Hosts are very communicative and helpful. We loved everything about this property and our stay! Highly recommend.

Quiet oasis in Berkeley
This is a perfect house on a quiet street in Berkeley, within walking distance to many shops and restaurants. Charming, comfortable and restful accommodations. Bright with skylit rooms. Dugger was a wonderfully gracious host, willing to be flexible when our flight delays altered our arrival. We hope to rent this house again on return trips to Berkeley!

Wonderful place in Berkeley.
Lovely home. Well equipped. It's in the back of the property so no noise from the street. We had no trouble parking on the street. Good hot water and filtered water too. Cozy and comfortable.

Light and bright, comfortable and clean.
My gracious host met me upon arrival to show me around the clean and comfortable house. He was very kind and welcoming. Kitchen is particularly beautiful. Beds were extremely comfortable and the residential area was quiet and safe. 10 minute walk to restaurants and shops on Shattuck. Lovely place.

Cindee is delightful! She corresponded her timing and the purpose of her trip, treated my place so nicely, and she is warm and kind. The entire process was smooth throughout. I hope to have the opportunity to host Cindee again. Any host would be lucky to have Cindee as a guest.

Cozy house with magnificent gardens
The house is perfect, very clean, and comfortable.
The host though is the true gem. We had a family illness during our stay and Dugger blocked out days for us to stay extra, and let us pay nightly. It made a stressful situation so much better.
The best part of the home is the garden area, the flowers, and fairy lights at night are perfect. I'd not hesitate to stay here again.

Amber and her family are perfect guests, communicated their timing and needs, considerate, took good care of my home and left it tidy. We ran into an unexpected situation that we discussed and came to best solution together. I wish them well and I extend a warm invitation to them to be my guest again anytime.
This is the best vacation rental I have ever stayed in. The pictures are accurate, the property is lovely , and Dugger is an ideal host. Dugger was communicative, responsive and kind. I stayed there with an infant and young child and the home was well suited to all family members. When my older kid lost a favorite toy, Dugger was kind enough to search for it thoroughly. All in all, this made for a great jumping off point for a Berkeley family vacation!
Lovely artwork and looks bigger than the pictures. House was clean with newer kitchen appliances. We only made coffee and toast for breakfast. Yet, kitchen had everything that you would need to make a full meal. One suggestion, don’t forget slippers as the polished cement is pretty but cold in every room except the bedroom. Dugger was communicative and extremely easy to work with, despite a bit of a hassle with VRBO in terms of the app confirming and cancelling my booking. The home served our purposes, although those not looking to drive should know that there are not lots of large grocery stores or several restaurant options in immediate walking distance, which was not an issue for us since we only needed a landing pad to spend time with friends.
