NOTE: during hot season, water in pool level may go below skimmer mid line of tile in pool, please turn on water valve to bring water level up on the pool. Time it for 30 minutes. Don’t forget to turn off the valve; it will result in flooding the pool. Valve is located at the side of garage under wisteria bush, near chase lounges and hose. I put a (blue ribbon)on it so it is identifiable.

The host did a great job of communicating with us before our trip and during our stay, when things arose that we needed her help with. We hope to stay here again.

We had a quick local offsite for our Exec Team and this was the perfect place to stay. Jackie, the owner, is truly a spectacular host. Easy to get a hold of and quick to assist. Definitely cannot wait to come back for another local offsite.

Wonderful stay in Willow Glen!

We had a perfect week-long stay in this beautiful Willow Glen home. The hosts, Cynthia and Jeffrey, were so kind and helpful. The outdoor space was perfect for hosting our friends and family with a lovely pool, hot tub, fireplace and grill. Kitchen was stocked with everything you would need and more! Beds were comfy and the house was spacious. Loved being able to walk to all the shops and restaurants in downtown WG. Will definitely stay again on our next visit!

Wonderful property for family celebration!

We decided to hold our family Christmas celebration in the San Jose area this year so that our family in the area did not have to drive through all the traffic to get to us in the Sierra foothills. This property provided a great location, plenty of space, parking, and a wonderful cooking/gathering area for the whole family. There were one or two smaller issues which the owner addressed right away.

Beautiful, Spacious, Fully Equipped and Perfectly Maintained

The Stanley Estate was everything and more than was advertised. The location, so close to charming downtown Willow Glen, is perfect. The house and outside areas just couldn't be better for entertaining and are very well equipped. Upon arrival we were greeted by a bottle of wine and a very kind handwritten note of welcome. We have already recommended it to family and friends and will continue to do so.

Weekend getaway

Property was beautiful. Kitchen well stocked with utensils and everyone took turn at pool table. The pool spa and light was a hit. The pool however was freezing even though it was mid 80’s outside - our body went numb with the cold within a few minutes we we didn’t get to enjoy it as much as we had hoped. We walked a few blocks down the street for bagels and coffee in the morning and the area was very charming. Lots of fond memories with this stay

Look no further- Beautiful and lovely home & walking distance to Willow Glen downtown

We really enjoyed our stay at the Willow Glen home. First, the location is incredibly convenient. It is walking distance to Willow Glen downtown where there are fantastic restaurants, shops and cafes. Second, the home is incredibly beautiful, well-maintained, clean and serene. The bedrooms are all decorated beautifully with thoughtful care and they made the home feel like home away from home. The swimming pool and hot tub were extra perks for our boys, and they even had swimming tubes and toys available as well. Third, Cynthia was incredibly responsive and quickly got back to us on all questions we had. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Stunning San Jose Home

Simply amazing. The photos didn't depict much regarding the interior, so we were pleasantly surprised at the extensive decorating and interior design work through out. We booked for the outdoor space, which definitely lived up to our expectations. The house was stocked well if you plan on entertaining or dining in. We found a fair amount of snacks and all the cooking basics, which made it easy to put a meal together. The house is situated on a highly trafficked street, so a bit of noise but not extreme. Very beautiful home, will certainly book again if available for our regular travel to the area.

Perfect graduation weekend

Cynthia was lovely and the property location, set up and vibe was perfect to celebrate my daughter’s SCU graduation. Cynthia answered a few questions and kept me in the loop with neighborhood happenings that could impact our event. We played cards, celebrated with about 15 friends, swam and enjoyed each other. Thank you, Cynthia, for a home that we could slip into and easily call “ours”, making cherished memories.

Memorable family stay in Willow Glen

We love the location and enjoyed walking to Willow Glen for meals and errands. The beds are extremely comfortable and the laundry was much used and the shampoo and hand soap furnished were appreciated. We found the house comfortable and lovely and enjoyed using the pool area even though it was too cold to swim. The internet was reliable. The pool table was a great hit. We also enjoyed the farmers market across the street on Saturday morning. We felt very much at home in Willow Glenn.

Beautiful Home

Cynthis is a fabulous host and was available immediately for questions. She was so sweet in providing a new Keurig machine when I inquired about what type of coffee machine was provided. The house is beautifully decorated, and the grandchildren used the spa every day. Summer renters will certainly enjoy the pool. Unfortunately, I am unable to give a 5 star rating through no fault of Cynthia, but because of the property's location on a very busy main street of the quaint village of Willow Glenn. I ended up purchasing a desk fan to drown out the street noise in the master bedroom and left it there for future tenants. We found a Christmas tree in the basement, so we set it up and the grandchildren were able to have Santa deliver their presents under the tree. We had a wonderful time and would recommend this property.

Anniversary Vacation

We had 12 family members together for our anniversary vacation. Ten people stayed in this wonderful Willow Glen home which included one 9 year old and 3 seven year olds. They loved the pool, spa, and pool table. We had a large celebratory meal the last night at the outside table which was perfect for all 12 of us. Thanks for providing such a beautiful and well-equiped home. It was perfect!!
