The Neighborhood

Potrero Hill is a famous residential neighborhood in San Francisco. It is very close to downtown and the famous sites of San Francisco like Moscone Center, Museum of Modern Art, Pier 39, Fisherman's Wharf, and Union Square. There is a large grocery store, Safeway, located on 16th Street and Potrero (about 6 blocks away) that is open 24 hours or Whole Foods Market is 3 blocks away.

About 4 blocks away from the home are some very famous San Francisco restaurants located at 18th Street & Connecticut: Goat Hill Pizza, Eliza's, Chez Mama, Aperto, Baraka, Thanya & Salee, and many others. Starbucks is located 4 blocks away.  There is a nice playground for small children two blocks up Vermont Street with beautiful views. San Francisco is a very small city. The city limits are only 7 x 7 miles so everything is close by and it is easy to get around by car, taxi or public transportation.

Pet Policy
There is a one time charge of $100 to bring your pets. Some people are allergic, so you can ask when the last time a guest was at the house with a pet. This only happens about once a year since most of my guests are flying in from overseas or from the other side of the country.

When is payment due?
Payment is due two months before your arrival (3 months prior for holidays or special occasions)

How do I make a reservation?
Fill out the reservation form on this website.

Cancellation policy
Payment is due two months before your arrival date (3 months prior for holidays). You can cancel giving one months notice or more and receive a full refund. There is not a refund if cancellation is less than 30 days before the arrival date. 

Is there a security deposit?
Yes. The security deposit of $500 is required about 2 weeks before your arrival date. It will be returned to you about 2 weeks after your departure date. 

When is my reservation confirmed?
If your rental is within two months, you are not confirmed until I receive the rental payment and the signed rental agreement. If your rental is over two months in the future, you are not confirmed until I receive the signed two page rental agreement. It is possible that I email you back to let you know that the house is available and the next day it could get booked by another guest. That is why, after you receive the rental agreement, I recommend sending it back soon to secure your reservation. It is very common for me to have 2 or 3 rental agreements sent out for the same time and whomever returns it to me first will receive the booking.

These homes are very famous and very popular and I sell out quickly. I understand it takes some time to confirm the booking with your group, buy airline tickets, etc. and by the time you confirm everyone, the house could get booked by another group. But you can make a tentative reservation to hold the date. All you have to do is fill out the "Book Your Stay" form on the website and I will email you the rental agreement. Most vacation rental companies demand half payment upon booking and the balance due two months before arrival. However, I do not like that policy since some of my guests make bookings far in advance and I don’t think it is fair taking someone’s money a year in advance. No payment is due until 2 months before arrival.

What form of payments are accepted?
I accept checks, Paypal, debit cards or credit cards.
