The Honeymoon Cottage at Stinson Beach is the ultimate romantic escape for couples. This architectural gem has everything you need to enjoy the good life at the beach including: a private hot tub, beautiful views of the ocean, a comfy living room for relaxing together and a California King bed where you can snuggle at night and listen to the waves crashing.
You can sip wine on your sunny deck, enjoy the flowers and hummingbirds in the garden, and watch the moon rise over the ocean - all in complete privacy. The beach, park, restaurants, galleries and shops in town are an easy stroll away - but be warned: you may not want to leave the cottage!
The Honeymoon Cottage attracts many repeat guests each year. Here is what our guests say:
"Of all the places we've stayed in Stinson (and there have been many) this is the best! ...The design and siting of this cottage are perfect." Toni & Stan, Ukiah, CA
"What a dream of a cottage. We were pleasantly surprised by how beautiful everything was - flowers, views, hot tub, privacy, cottage - you have it all here. Great place to get away from it all!" Carolyn & Ron, Sacramento CA
An absolutely fabulous place to celebrate our 9th wedding anniversary. Felt better than our honeymoon! Great views, wonderful ocean breezes, charming in every way. Thank you for making this such a memorable vacation. We will be sure to return - it was not easy to leave! Charlie & Natia,
What a wonderful weekend! It was a great place to get away from the real world and catch up with old friends. It was the perfect place to look at the stars, listen to some Jack Johnson, and BBQ delicious meals. Many thanks! Stef & MIke
"Third time at the cottage and love it more every time...a private sanctuary overlooking the ocean. Thank you." Richard & Carol, Berkeley, CA
"Fantastic! We love your cottage. Thank you for sharing your little piece of heaven with us....relax in the hot tub...kick around town, wine and cheese on the deck, walk on the beach, grill up dinner, snuggle in bed... What a life! We love your garden, your view and just the energy in the cottage itself. Great job on all of it." Audrey & Brian, Walnut Creek, CA

Amazing Rental!!

The honeymoon cottage was everything & more than I could of asked for. My rental of this cottage initially was for my honeymoon. Things didn't work out in that area so then the weekend rental turned into a girls weekend get away. (The perfect kind of therapy!) The cottage was very clean & welcoming. Beautiful views, there are so many windows around the cottage the natural light is just amazing. There was nothing in comparison to having our own private deck with hot tub to relax in, smell the jasmine & watch the stars while listen to the ocean. Very private. The beach is a 5 min walk from the cottage with cute shops/market & a diner. A truley relaxing weekend. I would highly reccomend staying at this cottage to anyone. Increadibly relaxing & beautiful. I will deffinitly be returning. Thank you so much for sharing this cottage with me. Katrina

Everything that others have commented about this cottage is so true! My husband and I visited this little "piece of heaven" for three nights in August 2011. The views, jasmine, hot tub, ocean waves, hummingbirds, and privacy helped to make this a perfect getaway! I also can't say enough wonderful things about Highway One Properties! I went out on the deck to look at the spectacular view the first evening we arrived and locked us out...yes, locked out! We called Jeanie and her husband brought an extra key down to us within a few minutes. Wow...we were impressed! My only little suggestion is for visitors to bring a coffee pot if you are coffe drinkers. There is a cute little 2 cup coffee pot there so we made lots of pots of coffee. This little house is perfect in everyway! We plan on going back next summer!
Owner response:Hi Kathy, Thanks so much for your nice note! We are glad that you enjoy the Honeymoon Cottage as much as we do. Thanks also for your suggestion about the coffee pot. We will replace the small coffee maker with a new, larger one this week (so it will be ready for you next summer!) All the best, Steve and Ann

This was a lovely place for a three-generational family vacation. Grandma and papa stayed in the cottage; our son’s family in the Big House. The grandchildren ate breakfast with us every morning while their parents slept late. WE especially enjoyed the beautiful garden and the ocean view. It is an excellent location for exploring the area and a respite from our Midwestern heat and humidity. Best wishes. Ogden, Il

Julie & Bob We stayed in the Honeymoon Cottage for 3 nights to help my husband with healing and as a relaxing and restful place for us both. I love the sweet smell of jasmine and the sound of the ocean coming in along with the cool air at night. Thank you for beautiful days in your neighborhood. Of course, we hope to come back. Thank you fro sharing this with us.

Kathy & Ron We came to your house and cottage with our daughter to celebrate her 40th birthday. This was perfect – Mom & Dad had their own lovely cottage and joined the young people for meals and relaxation. This is a wonderful location – we never used our cars once we arrived. The beach is so close and sleeping to the sound of the surf is musical. Hope we can return soon. Tucson, AZ

Everything about this cottage is perfectly wonderful. The design and comfort have exceeded our expectations. The hot tub under the stars: wow! But the very best part for me was being able to just BE and LISTEN to the ocean. Truly a spiritual experience. Thanks for sharing your beautiful sanctuary with us.

It is rare to arrive and find accommodations that exceed one’s expectations – your cottage did just that. It was all that had been advertised and more. We thoroughly enjoyed the deck with its unobstructed and private view, the hot tub for a late nigh soak, and sleeping to the sound of the ocean. Hiking the Matt Davis/Dipsea trail loop right from our front door was a bonus – we didn’t use the car all weekend! Thank you for making the cottage available. Like so many before us, we hope to return!
