Family get together
Our family came to Berkeley to visit our sister and her family. The location and accommodations were perfect. Patty is an amazing host. Greeted us on our arrival and instructions were easy to understand. My dad has mobility issues so we loved the easy access as well as excellent security. Thank you, Patty, for a lovely visit!

Perfect Berkeley cottage
This is a wonderful cottage in an ideal location. The cottage is located behind Patty's house on a quiet street that's three blocks from the inviting College Avenue array of varied restaurants (Italian, American, Mediterranean, ice cream, Peet's). A 20-minute walk to the UC campus. The cottage itself has a large, comfortable bed in main bedroom. a second bedroom with a pull-out couch that we used as an office during a six-day stay, an up-to-date and well-equipped kitchen and bathroom, spacious living/family space with big-screen, Hulu-endowed TV. and a small, partially shaded outdoor patio that became one of my favorite go-to parts of the entire stay. Patty is a great host. We look forward to a return visit.

Serene getaway
Patty is a lovely host, and the cottage was quiet, spacious, and cozy! The high ceilings make the space airy and bright. You can tell that the cottage was put together with thoughtfulness and love in the details. I hope to be back sometime!

Great stay in Patty's blue cottage
My sister and I loved our stay in Patty's blue cosy cottage. Lovely place with all amenities. Lovely little kitchen where we cooked several times, and a nice spot in the garden to enjoy our food. We loved walking up and down College Av. - lots of small local shops and great places to enjoy a bite. Definitely coming back! Camilla from Denmark.

Peaceful Retreat
Cottage location is serene and contains every convenience. The host is gracious and responsive, for example when there was an area outage of the internet, she sent us a text right away. In addition, the local restaurants are nearby and delish! (Especially Summer Kitchen on Collage!)

Cosy cottage
After seven years, we returned to Ms. Patty's cottage to accompany our youngest son to UC Berkeley. The place is really delightful and close to all College Avenue services and amenities. Although we no longer have "college-age children", we hope to have the opportunity to be her guests again. Thank you very much Patty.

Always a winner
We have stayed with "Miss Patty" a number of times over a number of years. We have all that we need, especially her garden at the front door of the cottage with shady places to read and a patio table on which to play cards with our grandchildren. Easy walk to College Ave. Always a winner.

The perfect family cottage for visitors!
We have family coming to visit from the east coast at least twice a year and this has been the perfect place for them when they are in town. Patty is a fantastic host and the cottage is always well kept. It’s a plus to be walking distance to our house and so many things on College Ave.

Great Location in Quiet Neighborhood
The cottage was extremely clean and exactly as shown in photos. We greatly enjoyed having a table outside for eating. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking. It's walkable (12 min?) to the BART station. Patty communicates quickly with any questions. The only surprise was lack of screens when you need to open windows. The majority of homes in the neighborhood do not have screens, though, so maybe just not needed?(We live in a buggy part of the country, so was a surprise to us.) Would definitely book the cottage again!

Lovely spot!
My daughter and I had a wonderful stay at this peaceful, pretty spot - the location was super convenient to walk to College Ave restaurants / grocery store and shops. The gardens on this street were verdant and gorgeous. The owner couldn't be more accommodating and the cottage has everything you could possibly need - we loved it!

Charming and Comfortable Cottage!
My husband and I traveled from Florida to Berkeley so we could be present for the birth of our new grandson. We stayed at this charming, light and bright Elmwood cottage for two weeks. Patty, the owner, is wonderful and has thought of everything to make her renters feel at home. The kitchen is well equipped, the bed is very comfortable and there are hooks and cubbies everywhere (as well as closets and shelves) for guests to use. In addition, the neighborhood is quiet, friendly and it is only a one block walk from the cottage to charming downtown Elmwood. We will definitely be back!!! ❤️
