Five star property

Incredible view. Beautiful home, comfortable and equipped with everything we needed. It’s a short walk to the center of town (market, fabulous restaurants, and the beach). It’s an even shorter walk to a trailhead connecting to the Mount Tam trail system. We look forward to staying here again.

Excellent vacation

Our family of 3 (2 adults and an 8-yr old) stayed for a week here at Stinson Beach and loved every minute of it. Location was great, the house was clean, tastefully/minimally decorated with a modern relaxed vibe, and had everything we needed - the owner puts nice attention to details. The views were spectacular and we enjoyed some awesome sunsets and sunrises. Of course, we got out to the beach nearly every day, hiked Muir Woods and even made it into the city one day to visit friends and the Cal Academy of Science for our daughter. Very relaxing. Hope to do it again next year!

Love this house

This was our second long stay at this house, and it does not disappoint! The location is killer, the layout is thoughtful, and all the details are in place. Our favorite things are the many windows that provide light and views, the trailhead at the end of the block that feels like a special secret way into the hills, and the beautiful art and photographs that offer a sense of place and history. We'd stay forever if we could.

Early May Stay

Our family group of 4 absolutely loved everything about our stay at this wonderful vacation home overlooking Stinson Beach. Both ocean and hillside 360-degree views were spectacular and ever-changing from the two decks, each room of the light-filled home, and the colorful backyard garden. The kitchen (with its large island) and dining and family rooms were awesome places to enjoy family time. The free-standing gas stove made the center of the house cozy, too! Finally, the location was just a few short, hilly roads down to the “main drag” of the charming town of Stinson Beach. And nearby towns of Bolinas and Pt. Reyes Station could be reached with just a few miles of driving on country roads with beautiful vistas.

Spectacular Family Home on Stinson Beach

You can tell that the owner of this property has a creative streak—we loved the gorgeous back yard succulent and flower garden and the colorful paintings throughout the home. We adored cooking in the open plan kitchen, which was fully equipped with a solid collection of cutlery, dishes, pots and pans, spices and utensils—everything we needed for quick breakfasts and elaborate dinners-in. The beds are beyond comfortable, especially with the ocean breeze. You'll feel right at home as soon as you walk into the foyer. The children loved watching movies in the sunken living room with views of the Pacific. Our stay at Stinson Beach was magical and we'll definitely be back the next time we're in Marin County.
