Location: Stinson Beach, San Francisco Bay Area, California, USA (Just up the hill from the center of town.)

Accommodations:  House, 4 Bedrooms, 2 Baths (Sleeps 8)

Minutes from the beach, but worlds away from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Our house insists that you relax and enjoy the passage of time.

Built in the early 1900s, this house was one of the first structures at Stinson Beach (then known as Willow Camp). Built almost entirely of redwood, the house stands just above the center of town and commands spectacular views of earth, sea, and sky. Sit on the great porch and read, chat, or just watch the waves roll in.

Recently remodeled, you'll find that comfort and charm are the key components of this handsome four-bedroom home. Owned by the same family since 1948, there are many civilizing touches to make your stay relaxing and enjoyable. Enjoy the modern kitchen or sit in the cozy living area by the original stone fireplace. There's plenty of room to spread out and settle in for a pleasant stay.

  • Our family (ranging in age from 7 months to 67 years old) spent 4 nights here and had an amazing time hanging out and having fun. The house is charming and comfortable throughout, although we spent most of our time on the porch, which has fantastic views. The newly-remodeled kitchen was so inviting that we didn't even visit the Parkside Cafe, which is a favorite. We hiked, beachcombed, kayaked, and relaxed. This vacation was a highlight of our summer! We want to return next year!

  • This is a very nice and classic home with fantastic ocean views. Stairs and a steep winding trail make it the equivalent of a 6 story walk up just to get from the road to the front door. It's quite a haul to get belongings and groceries moved in and out. In the winter, the combination of fireplace, space heaters, and some baseboard heaters frequently left us either hot or cold and require frequent monitoring and adjusting. The VRBO photos really undersell the livability and grandeur of the living areas and balcony. It's quite a nice home!
