    We generally had a really good experience here. I don't think I'm the nature type though…read more We stayed in the adult only area and it was nice and quiet. The tents are really spacious and comes with a nice patio with a BBQ and also a bathroom with hot water. On the first night, we found a total of 3 frogs in our bathroom. I got creeped out and luckily they were nice enough to switch us to a different room. I expected bugs, but I can't deal with creatures. A few of the downsides are that the tent is not fully enclosed. It's made with wooden planks (the roof and the floor) and canvas (the walls). You can see the outside through the wooden planks. They put nets above the roof and under the flooring so the nature can't get in, but I still got a little paranoid given our situation. They have cooking things and plates that you can use. I lifted up a couple of plates and there was a bunch of flies stuck to the plates. They clearly count on the guests to clean all the dishes. Speaking of, they provide a sponge, but no dish soap... there's hand soap, shampoo and body wash in the bathroom though. They have a decent amount of activities - common space with indoor and outdoor areas, board games, fire pits, cornhole, a giant pool, live music one of the nights, movie night. The common area and pool was mostly families. They also have bikes for rent. I would suggest renting and e-bike and biking their trails. Their trails are too bumpy for a regular bike (you'll have to work really hard) and it's too boring to walk as a hike (it's a giant field for the most part). We biked to Six Sigma Winery which was a nice break to get some wine tasting and cheese board. Overall, we had a good time.

    It's our last day (Sunday) and I'm in the patio as I type this…read more Cons: 1) from parking lot to the tent was a WORKOUT! Steep hills and you cannot drive up to your tent. Carts may not be enough in the weekend. So do not bring a lot of stuff. 2) Not sure if there is a hike. 3) do not use a lot of electricity after 6pm (in the summer) coz the electricity went out but they were quick to switch the solar battery. 4) there should be a number to call at every stations. Pros: 1)the tent we stayed in was nice and clean. We opt out w the linen. There are some kitchen items and a grill in the patio. I didn't use the grill because we stayed at my bro-in-law's tent most in the daytime. 2) the clubhouse is nice and they have some games. 3) swimming pool is nice BUT could've been cleaner. 4) It was quiet at night which is nice. There ice packs station. 5) employees were reachable BUT you have to call the number which can be found in the website. This is a nice "camping" if you are about 2 hours away from the bay area.

    I can't say enough about how much we've enjoyed our time at Kalinka Preschool and Child Care. We…read moreenrolled our son when he was 14 months old, and now at 3 years old he is truly thriving under Ms. Julia's care. We appreciate that Kalinka focuses on letting children be children rather than pushing academics too early. Ms. Julia incorporates Montessori principles and child-led activities, supporting each child in growing their confidence, independence, and curiosity both physically and mentally. Our son has learned far more this year than we ever expected. He's explored planets, animals, letters, music, reading, sensory play, and so much more. As a very energetic and hyperactive 3-year-old, he really benefits from guidance and structure, and we're grateful that Ms. Julia has thoughtfully tailored routines to support him. Another thing we love is how the school celebrates every accomplishment and holiday together. It truly feels like one big family where every child is supported and included. We've also loved seeing the other children grow and develop alongside our son , it's been such a heartwarming part of our experience. Although the schedule is flexible, we've learned that consistency is important so each child can get the most out of Kalinka's daily rhythm. We highly recommend Kalinka Preschool and Child Care and are incredibly thankful for the impact it has had on our son.

Livia & the other teachers are so responsive and loving toward him, every day he's greeted with hugs and a crew of friends and teachers that are genuinely excited to see him. 3 meals AND snacks are included in tuition, and they are impressive meals (chicken, fish, scrambled eggs, fresh fruit), everything homecooked. The atmosphere is always happy & positive too - everything is spotlessly clean, and Livia always has new and engaging toys and activities. She sends pictures during the day that are so sweet and gives updates on how he's doing so we know he's in good hands. Highly recommend Auntie Lilie's!

Your child will be in great hands with Livia's childcare I highly recommend her. We highly recommend Happy Auntie Lili's Childcare. Livia is the best. She offers a safe, loving, nurturing environment, and fun learning activities, and my son learned Portuguese and Spanish with her, at home and he's very happy to go to the childcare every morning. She also helped toilet training go smoothly. They sent pictures of what they do doing the week, so we can talk to our son about what he learned. We couldn't be more pleased with this Livia.

    Short story: Little Star Preschool Too is a fantastic choice because of the campus size, location,…read moreincluded meals, and most importantly, the teachers and educators who care so so much for your little ones! Long story: Little Star Preschool Too was my top choice from the beginning when I was touring preschools. I was delighted to see the campus (plenty of parking spots, quiet neighborhood, residential location and close to restaurants for afterschool pick up)! The preschool is large and has a huge yard for the children to play in during "recess" and at the end of the day. I think the actual amount of land they have for a school is impressive as the children are able to get their wiggles out without having to travel to a local park. While I was dazzled by the tour of the campus, I was absolutely amazed by the teachers and staff! They are all genuinely loving and greatly care about the well-being of the children! I am always greeted with a smile by each of the staff members during drop off. My child has so much fun playing with her peers and the large variety of toys, doing daily arts and crafts, eating their provided lunch and learning new subjects! She took a little bit of time to warm up to being in school and her teacher was so patient with her, spending extra time with her to help her transition. Other teachers and staff would step in to help out too if her teacher was not immediately available for help. Not only does the school teach "regular subjects" like letter recognition and counting, they also teach real life skills like what streetlights and stop signs are used for! (The school had a cute field trip around the neighborhood teaching the children about road safety). There are also a lot of extra features added to the curriculum to help enrich the children's education. There were dance performances, field trips, readings from books regarding different cultural festivals and traditions. The school is just so awesome and I am very happy with my choice. Thumbs up!

    I chose Little Star Preschool for my toddler for many reasons:…read more- Full day care (dropoff as early as 7:30 a.m., though the school day starts shortly after 9 a.m.; pickup by 5:30 p.m.) and instruction is year-round. - Mid-year entry (my son started in January) - A large play yard and clean, bright indoor spaces - Meals and snacks are included (you send your kid with a lunchbox with sides, and they provide the main dish) Most importantly, my toddler is pretty shy around new people and slow to warm. I appreciated that Little Star Preschool encouraged multiple playdate visits before he officially started, so that he could get used to the space and staff. All of the teachers were kind, patient, and gentle with him as he transitioned from a small daycare to preschool. They allowed him time to adjust and let him just observe at first, as he preferred, while holding onto his stuffy. His language skills have really exploded (I love hearing him repeat, "Wake up, little bodies!") and I know he's cared for while learning and playing.

    I've been using Rabbit Jumps for years -- first for my son's birthday parties (jumpies,…read morewaterslides, tables, chairs... you name it). As my needs grew, so did their support. They've helped outfit events at my place of work, Equator Coffees in San Rafael, with tents, canopies, tables, and chairs, always with the same reliable service and fair pricing. Recently, for my son's 8th-grade graduation party at Our Lady of Loretto, they handled tables, chairs, linens, and more -- flawlessly, as always. And when I called last minute this week, frantic over a sudden forecast of rain for our 125+ person outdoor football celebration, they came through AGAIN with a 20x30 canopy, ready to deliver the next day. Rabbit Jumps is everything you want in a business: small, local, family-owned, and part of our parish and school community. They are dependable, responsive, kind, and incredibly accommodating. I can't recommend them highly enough -- support small businesses like Rabbit Jumps. They're true gems!

Luckily my family is awesome and we still had a really good time but it was no thanks to this company at all. ----------------------- I confirmed a jumper and 15 chairs for my son's 1st birthday party on April 18th for April 27th -- I have emails showing that they requested the full amount in cash upon delivery and did not want a deposit paid over the phone. The day came and went without a WORD from this organization. The older kids were supposed to be able to enjoy that part of the party since we kept it simple and stayed at home. I am really upset by what they did. UPDATE: They called this morning and tried to blame me as the customer despite the fact that I have EMAIL PROOF THAT THEY CONFIRMED WITH ME FOR THE PARTY AND DID NOT REQUIRE A DEPOSIT -- I would not waste your time, energy and definitely NOT your money with these people
