Beautiful house, great location

This house is a beautiful place to stay. It’s a beautiful home in a very quiet neighborhood. The kitchen and bathrooms are modern and the backyard is a peaceful oasis with an amazing view. It’s a quick trip to downtown Lafayette for shopping and dining. It’s also a close drive to downtown Walnut Creek. The host was friendly and happy to answer all my questions.
