Lovely Cottage
We really enjoyed our Memorial Day weekend here. This is a charming, art-filled home with views of the water on the hill. Very clean inside. Only negatives were the mildew smell upon entering and the cobwebs all over the exterior and on the outdoor furniture. We didn’t use the deck area because of this which was too bad because it was amazing. These concerns were minor though and we’d definitely rent again!

Beautiful Gardens/ Deck
Lovely and large outdoor area. View of the ocean and you can hear the waves.
Hilly climb to and from beach- not for older folks!
Very quiet neighborhood.
House is very comfortable and has a well appointed kitchen.
Shoreline Drive is beautiful but not for the faint hearted.
Very bright and airy.

Great Place to Stay at Stinson Beach!
We had a great stay! The house had everything we needed, and close to the beach! We loved the huge back deck for sunbathing. I highly recommend!

Privacy & Calm at Calle Del Mar
The property came as advertised. Quirky clean with a beautiful private yard literally a few steps from "downtown" Stinson Beach and the beach itself. Property could use a few upgrades such as fans in the bathrooms, but overall very comfortable. Need to have printed instructions as to how the TV works. Property manager was a great help with the problem.
