Top Ten Destinations in California for a Tiny House Getaway

Top Ten Destinations in California for a Tiny House Getaway

I’m excited to share my top ten destinations in California for you to enjoy!

If you’ve been toying with the idea of possibly entering into the tiny house movement, why not stay in a tiny house near you and see if this is a reality for you as well?

In this post I will be sharing rental information and the builders behind some of these tiny house getaways.  You’ll get a sense of their building style, and you’ll have an opportunity to actually stay in their builds to check out their work… or just simply to enjoy a tiny house getaway!

1. Livermore:  First on the list of the top ten destinations in California!

Nestled in the green rolling hills of Livermore, California is a Tiny House Getaway on a 100 Acre Ranch.

Driving up on its very own tiny house road, you’ll see this getaway perched on top of the hill overlooking the vast views of the valley. I arrived just in time to an amazing sunset view.

Looking for a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of the Bay Area? This is your place to go!

Hosts Hamzeh and Suzanne have created a wonderful little cozy space for guests to enjoy and feel completely at home.

Adding a deck to a tiny house helps extend the usable space, and this tiny house provides so many nice touches for guests to use during their stay, like a yoga mat for morning sun salutations and a bbq for sunset dinners.

The interior is spacious and tastefully decorated to give you an instant feel of a home away from home, or in this case tiny home away from home!
