Cozy furnished studio in-law unit two blocks from Downtown Mill Valley - a beautiful town a 15 minute drive north of San Francisco across the Golden Gate Bridge. Restaurants, Mill Valley Outdoor Art Club, cafes, shopping, trail heads, movie theater, comedy club/live theater all within walking distance. You can't beat the location. This is a one room unit with hardwood floors, 1 queen sized bed, 1 queen sized futon bed, kitchenette with mini-fridge, sink, microwave, coffee maker, cable TV with HBO, table for 2, and a bathroom with shower. This studio is a ground level unit in a 3 unit building with a separate entrance. Wireless internet access and parking provided. Pack and play,, and air mattress available upon request.
It's perfect for parents visiting their children/grandchildren in the area, or for wedding guests attending the Outdoor Art Club. With nice linens, plush towels, it's much more welcoming and homey than a hotel room.
Easy driving access to San Francisco sight-seeing, and to beautiful Marin scenery and wildlife. 15 minutes to the Muir Woods National Monument old growth redwood forest, and to beautiful Muir Beach. 5 minute drive to Golden Gate National Recreation Area hiking trails, including Tennessee Valley Road trail, where an easy 1 3/4 mile hike takes you to the beach. 8 to 10 minute drive to downtown Sausalito - explore stores in charming downtown Mill Valley, or walk by the bay on the Sausalito marina. There are ferries to SF leaving from Sausalito and Larkspur.
A 45 minute drive takes you to wine country in Sonoma or Napa, or to the Point Reyes National Seashore.
The unit on the ground floor (no stairs) of a 2 story, 3 unit building. There is a family with 2 children living on the second floor so expect to hear some activity in the mornings getting ready for school and between 5-8pm after they are home. One of the families has a hypoallergenic, well behaved, indoor dog. If you have a similarly well-behaved, child/other dog friendly pet, we would consider letting him/her stay for an extra deposit and $50 cleaning fee.

About owner/property manager
We have been living in the bay area for the past 15 years, in San Francisco for 14 of them so please ask us for insider tips if you plan to visit SF. We got married in Mill Valley, adopted our dog in Mill Valley, and are now back living here with 2 kids. I do marketing consulting for natural food and beverage companies and love to play tennis and hike. My husband is a software engineer who loves kite surfing and playing the drums. We have two boys who love to swim, and ride around with us on our bikes.
owner/property manager purchased this Studio in 2010
Why owner/property manager chose Mill Valley
We bought this studio so we could accommodate family and friends when they come to visit us and rent it out when it isn't being used.

Great convenience
This studio was clean and very easy to use. Met the owner who was very nice. One downside was the air freshener which we removed. Also was fairly noisy in the morning with just bustling about by a family. We used just as a place to sleep and shower so worked out well. 😁�
Good Value for Basic Accommodation
Easy to find and access. We liked it for the location between San Francisco (30min) and Sonoma/Napa (~1hr). It's also only 15 minutes to some lovely red wood hiking trails. Best suited for 2 married adults but there is a futon mattress to lay on the floor and a pack n'play for kiddo's. It had a few non-perishable kitchen items and plates and silverware, microwave, and coffee maker and seating for 3. Other tenants have dogs that we heard occasionally but were not a nuisance. Overall we were pleased to find reasonably priced lodging somewhat last minute in the area.
Location
We are located walking distance to Mt Tamalpais trails, and a few minute drive to Muir Woods, etc. Just 2 blocks from downtown Mill Valley with restaurants, shopping, play grounds, hiking, biking, etc. Public transportation also picks up 1 block away.
