Central Davis bungalow designed for easy, memorable stays for families, pet owners and visitors to UC Davis. This bright 100-year Craftsman blends cheerful period character and a private fenced garden with exceptional prep that guests rave about: fully stocked kitchen, baby gear, pet supplies, off-street parking and in-unit laundry. Walk to cafés, the Farmers Market and campus, relax on the patio, and work easily from the flexible office/third bedroom.

Enjoy contactless self check-in via a smart lock for flexibility and ease. We do not live on-site, but we are reachable by message or phone at any time if you need assistance during your stay.

Located on the edge of downtown Davis

Yolo Bungalow is a walkable, character-filled Davis bungalow that makes an easy base for families, pet-friendly trips, and UC Davis visits. Step out to nearby cafés, restaurants, shops, the Davis Farmers Market, and the Pence Gallery, then return to a quiet, residential street and your private, fully fenced garden - ideal for dogs and small gatherings.

Many guests leave the car parked and stroll to meals, coffee, or local events. The home is especially convenient for UC Davis visitors, families, business travelers, and guests arriving by train at the Amtrak station. Off-street parking is available in the driveway if you bring a car.

Downtown offers a wide variety of restaurants, breweries, coffee shops, and independent stores to explore. The Davis Food Co-op is a short walk away for groceries and essentials, and the Farmers Market is a favorite for fresh produce and ready-to-eat foods.

Because the house sits centrally, you may notice some daytime street activity and occasional train noise from about two blocks away. To help you rest, the home has double-pane windows, white noise machines in each bedroom, and complimentary earplugs.

Whether you’re visiting UC Davis, attending an event, working remotely, or sightseeing, enjoy a convenient, walkable Davis stay in a welcoming bungalow with a private garden and thoughtful, family- and pet-friendly touches.
