Easily the best VRBO experience we've had. The home and property are amazing and Joe is the best host. Joe was very helpful and accommodating, and he even allowed us to host an engagement celebration for our daughter. My family had a great time and will definitely be coming back here.

Spectacular views, gorgeous house, fabulous location and wonderful host. We are a multi generational family who traveled to attend a family event. This spacious and well appointed home was perfect. We enjoyed the pool and took advantage of the location to take walks in the nearby Redwoods. Our family fit around the large table and our meals were made all the more special as we looked out on the Bay and skyline of San Francisco. Highly, highly recommend this beautiful property.

About the host

Host profile image
I'm a professional high-end home builder. I started with the premiere location in Marin and I put everything I could think of into my own home.

I hope you'll be blown away.

Come share some time in the most beautiful spot in the Universe.

Why they chose this property

The house is located on the highest point in Strawberry, which means an unparalleled 270 degree view.

It's also right near the Strawberry Village Shopping Center and a few minutes to the major corridor through Marin (hidden behind the hill so you don't hear it).

What makes this property unique

The 5,000+ sf living area is made from the highest quality finishes with all the rooms (except one) directly facing the straight on San Francisco Bay and city.

Outdoor decks are made for day and evening enjoyment with radiant heater over one of the outdoor dining areas.
