"Our stay in Oakland was exactly what we were looking for. Right on the water - semi secluded, but close to stores, beautiful view and dog friendly! We loved that we could bring both of our babies with no weight restrictions (they are not little). They loved hanging with us by the fire and by/in the water. Firewood is even provided. However, the shed was empty for us, but we found a man pretty close by that sold us two wheelbarrows worth for 10 so it all worked out. That’s my one tiny negative, but not enough to affect the rating. Thank you Jason!"

"This was a wonderfully clean and comfortable little motel that is obviously well cared for by the proprietor. We had a quiet moment drinking a refreshing beverage and listening to birdsong in the evening in their spacious, private back garden. Beds are comfortable and everything was spotless. Cant be beat for the price."
