This was our second stay here and it was still exceptional. The place is bright, cheery, tastefully decorated/styled without being pretentious. It had everything we needed (and we cooked a bit). Owner is very responsive. We walked to the beach every day and the views were stunning. Loved being able to hear the ocean from our bed at night. The house made for a super relaxing retreat.

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.

Fabulous view of the Pacific

This spot is a perfect place to stay in Stinson Beach. So much to do in the area and walking on the beach for hours restored my health after a very long, cold winter in the northeast.
