Local Style Living Inside the Big City! Two miles to UCSF and Golden Gate Park!

Welcome to Our San Francisco Home!

Come enjoy San Francisco from our bright, sunny and comfortable home in the charming neighborhood of West Portal. Our home comfortably sleeps four plus ( a twin blow up mattress is available upon request) and is a wonderful place to relax after a day of exploring the city.

West Portal has a true neighborhood feel, with wonderful restaurants, coffee shops, local stores, and bars—all within an easy walk from the house. It’s a great place to experience a quieter side of San Francisco while still being close to all the city’s famous attractions.

An Easy Place to Explore the City

Our location makes getting around San Francisco especially convenient. We are just one block from the West Portal Muni Station, where you can catch the K, L or M trains and head into downtown and the waterfront.

Spend the day exploring Pier 39, Fisherman’s Wharf, Alcatraz, Union Square or Oracle Park, or hop on one of San Francisco’s famous Cable Cars. When you’re ready to slow down, come back to West Portal and enjoy dinner at one of the many nearby restaurants.

Your Home Away From Home

The main level of our two-story home includes:

Two comfortable bedrooms
One full bathroom
Cozy living room
Dining room
Fully equipped kitchen
Washer and dryer
Private driveway parking for one vehicle
Plenty of neighborhood street parking

We’ve tried to provide everything you’ll need to feel comfortable and at home during your stay. I’m available during your stay if needed, lower level of home, separate entrance. Whether you’re visiting San Francisco for the first time or coming back to one of your favorite cities, we hope our home gives you a comfortable place to relax, recharge and enjoy your time here.

Perfectly located for a stay in the city. The neighborhood is lovely and steps away from great restaurants, shopping, and gourmet food stores. The train to downtown, beach, zoo is around the corner so you get the best of both worlds, a safe vibrant neighborhood to give you the feel of living in the city and access to all of the city has to offer. Parking at house is easy if you decide to have a car. Home is warm and inviting, beds are comfortable and kitchen is charming and perfectly appointed. Owner is welcoming, responsive when needed, and a wonderful host. Highly recommend a stay here.

Lovely home close to transit and neighborhood restaurants. It was perfect for my daughter and myself. The muni is easy to use to get to downtown without having to drive. Parking in the driveway was a definite plus, particularly considering the price to park in SF. Kitchen was well equipped. No dishwasher but not a problem for the two of us. Deb went above and beyond to make us welcome and assist with anything we needed. Across the street from an elementary school but that didn't bother us and it was very quiet in the evening and overnight. Would definitely stay again.

no dishwasher. it says so in the listing, but i sure didn't notice it :)there is a Muni station about 200 feet down the street, very convenient for going into downtown.across the street is an elementary school and next door is a day care. not bad for noise, but if you try to take a nap about 2pm the cars picking up kids will keep you from sleeping.shops and restaurants are close by (220 feet down the street). there is a safeway for groceries about 1/2 mile away.
