Accommodations: House, 3 Bedrooms, 1.5 Baths (Sleeps 7-8)
30 minutes from the Golden Gate, Stinson Beach is the largest stretch of clean white sand beach in Northern California with a micro-climate that provides great weather most of the year.
Come, relax and enjoy!
Stroll from your door to the beach or town for shopping and wonderful restaurants; hang at the park; hike/bike the beautiful trails on Mount Tamalpais and never move your car!
"Wits End" is a comfortable, clean and cheerful 3 bedroom cottage on a quiet sandy lane 5 houses from the beach. The house is next to a babbling creek on a large private lot complete with ample windless deck space, a covered deck with dinner seating for 6, a warm outdoor shower to clean off from the beach, patio space in a butterfly garden, parking for 3+ cars and so much more. An easy family house.
The house is a contemporary cedar log house that is bright and well equipped. The master bedroom has a queen bed and a flat panel TV. The second bedroom has a queen bed. The third bedroom has a twin over double bunk (that can also fold to a couch) with individual reading lights and separate twin bed as well as books/TV/DVD/VCR, a large selection of movies and Nintendo game system. The living room also has a large selection of games, books and DVDs. Perfect for families, extended family, 2 families, or anyone looking to feel like they’ve gotten away from it all. Oh...and don’t forget to ask us about some of "Wits Ends" interesting history!
For the kids, a playhouse stocked with sand toys, a sand area and tree swing are located in a gated area next to the house so you can relax while the kids play. We recently added a warm water outdoor shower to make the transition from the beach enjoyable!
"Wits End" is set up to enjoy indoor/outdoor living at its best.
Lastly, In case you can’t leave work at home or just want to be connected, "Wits End" is setup with WiFi (so at least...if you have to...you can work outisde on a lounge chair!).
No Large Groups or Parties - No Exceptions!
Pets only by specific arrangement for an additional fee.
Although the house can sleep up to 8 - prefer maximum of 5 adults because of bed configuration.
