Treetop Refuge in Oakland Hills

Quaint and cozy in-law unit nestled near the top of the Oakland Hills close to Redwood Regional Forest and Joaquin Miller Park. Perched on a steep hill, this lower-level retreat offers a private entrance and outdoor space. Perfect for solo travelers or couples, with a pull-out sofa bed for a child.

Enjoy peaceful forest views and wake up to chirping birds on your private deck. Unwind with a book, a drink, or movie on Roku TV.

Just minutes from Montclair Village, parks and endless hiking trails, enjoy convenient access to Oakland, Berkeley, and San Francisco.

The space

Nearby are towering redwood trees and endless hiking trails that evoke a rural feel while having access to what the Bay Area has to offer.

Guest access
This is a private studio attached to the back of the main house with expansive decks with outdoor sitting area overlooking the forest.

Other things to note
Cell phone service is spotty depending on your carrier. WiFi connectivity is great. We live in the main house so you may hear an occasional sound. Streets are narrow and steep with no dedicated sidewalk as with most hills neighborhood. Trees sometimes obscure street signs and lampposts so trying to locate our house at night can be challenging. There are stairs to access the unit and pavement can sometimes be uneven so those with mobility issues please be aware. Although we are located in the city of Oakland, the setting has a rural feel. You may find occasional ants in the suite looking for water or see a family of raccoons, deer, or turkeys roaming in the neighborhood.
During your stay at this apartment building, you'll be within walking distance of Redwood Regional Park. The apartment offers free WiFi and a kitchenette.
