  Our family of 5 enjoyed a wonderful retreat time. The house was great--very clean, huge kitchen with lots of work area and plenty of space in the living and dining rooms. The beach is a stroll away and it was particularly nice to have easy access while people were lined up to park. Would definitely recommend this place to others.

  We had no problems at all. Everything was as advertised. The house was well supplied with products that I usually have to buy. The location was great for us. It was close to the ocean, near Muir Woods, Point Reyes, and San Francisco. The entire house was extremely clean. We went to the Marin County farmer's market and bought groceries in Mill Valley. We ate at the Pub once. Mostly we ate in nearby restaurants although nothing is really nearby. I would recommend this property highly.

  The house was perfect! Better than the photos, with tons of room. It is extremely well taken care of, and Angie answered all of our questions quickly with some great suggestions. I loved looking out of the bedroom and dinette windows to see the ocean in the distance. Our personal favorite were the three deer who visited on the hill behind the house. I think they watched us in the kitchen as much as we watched them! If you are planning to go to Pt Reyes, I suggest the Palace Market as a great little detour to grocery shop on the way back. Bring sandals for the beach. Its rocky with quite a bit of bon-fire debris. Muir Woods is breathtaking and just minutes away!

  We had a fantastic stay at Muir Beach. The house was bright and cheerful with lots of fresh air! Also extremely clean and within walking distance of a pub/restaurant. Such a great location! We look forward to returning.

  This house is lovely. Our family of 5 (3 kids: 11,9 & 6) stayed at The Pearl and loved every moment of it. The house is exceptionally clean and well stocked with towels, bed linens and all the essential items needed when traveling. The beach is just a short walk away from the front door and very family friendly. The proximity to Muir Woods and San Francisco can't be beat. I would highly recommend The Pearl and have passed the information on to several friends and family members. Our deposit was returned immediately and Angie was a pleasure to work with. She answered emails and text messages immediately. Thank you again for allowing our family to rent your lovely home. Peace be the journey.

  We spent a long weekend at this beach house and had an excellent time. The location is fantastic - just a very short walk to the beach and hiking trails. Five minutes drive to Muir Woods and a great English pub at the end of the street. The beach house is beautifully updated and very comfortable. A great place to relax, even if it is cold and stormy outside! We will definitely be returning to this house.

  I stayed at the Muir Beach cottage over a long weekend with my wife and toddler. The owners were very helpful and proactive with our stay. Communication was clear and friendly. With regards to the actual cottage itself, it was very well put together without feeling contrived. It had new amenities yet a bit of old charm. I wouldn't describe it as "luxury" but it also didn't feel like I was staying at a cabin either. It was exceptionally clean and all the things you wanted to be "new" (eg. bathrooms and kitchen) were. The biggest thing it has going for it is the location. It is the second cottage from the parking lot/access area of Muir Beach itself, a gorgeous little beach in this part of the world. Also, access to Muir Woods is just a short drive. It would be easy to spend a week here just reveling in Bay Area nature. I would definitely recommend the cottage if you're looking for relative seclusion close to SF.

  My family and I had an excellent stay at Muir Beach's Pearl. The home is very clean, and open...no dark corners for dust and spiders to hide. I am very particular where I stay, and fell in love with how comfortable, clean, and kept up the Pearl is. During our stay we visited Muir Woods, Stinson Beach, Drakes Beach in Point Reyes, down town SF, Mill Town and took in a horse back trail ride in Olema. All areas are within a short drive, with Drakes Beach taking the longest at about an hour. Muir Beach is steps from the front door which made seeing the sunset very easy. Drinking my morning coffee on the side porch listening to the waves and seeing the ocean was a great start to the day. My only suggestion (and some would call me crazy) would be having TV’s in the bedrooms. Thank you so much Angie for such a wonderful stay. We will for sure come back during the summer.

  We absolutely loved our stay at "Pearl". Not only was it clean, well equipped, and a perfect location; the owners were more than helpful supplying us with information on the home, the nearby sites, hikes - the whole nine yards! The kitchen was open, spacious, and just the right setting for our visit providing ample room for cooking, visiting and sitting by the wood stove. Next time we plan to take advantage of the beach "toys" and try surfing and spending time in the water. Fun for the whole family!
