The 13th of Summer is a romantic get-away or a comfy family holiday cottage on the Marin/Sonoma coast. It's just a short five minute stroll to the beach and has lovely views of the ocean and the waves rushing up the shore. At the equinox, the sun sets at the center of the living room picture window-the the winter to the south over Tomales Point and in the summer to the west over Bodega Head.
When not watching sunsets or the sea, guests can enjoy any of the dozens of books—fiction and non-fiction and current magazines. The cottage is filled with original paintings and sculpture by local artists. A wood burning stove (we provide the wood, you bring the kindling) or the energy efficient gas heater keeps the cottage cozy. Linens and cleaning are available at a nominal fee. This cottage is charming, clean and comfortable!
The westerly living room has a down filled sofa, over sized chair w/ ottoman and oak rocker. Lots of lamps make reading and close work enjoyable. The view is wonderful. The easterly sitting area is another place for conversation or media and has an overstuffed chair with ottoman and love seat.
A new gas stove and refrigerator have been added to the kitchen. From the sink is a view of the front garden and from the stove, the sea. Phones for local calls or calling card calls are in the kitchen and master bedroom. Mircrowave, blender, food processor, Kenmore mixer, copper pots, and even a Martha Stewart seasoning/spice collection are available.
The master bedroom has a queen size bed, blue leather wingback chair and oak dresser. Reading the paper, drinking coffee, and watching birds scamper along the shore make staying tucked in under the down comforter a morning pleasure.
The knotty pine bedroom has a queen bed and twin bed, antique oak dresser and rocking chair. When standing by the windows, the bay and Bodega Head can be enjoyed. Upstairs and between the two bedrooms is a half-bath with sink and toilet. Downstairs is the full bath with shower, toilet, sink,and, of course, a great view of the ocean. A washer and dryer are in the laundry shed.
The deck provides a great area to relax with teak chaise lounges, table and chair for taking in the view. A cozy and comfortable dining area with grand ocean before you makes inside dining a delight.
The comfy cottage at 13 Summer will reward you with romance and relaxation!
