Fairhills vacation rentals

I spent more than two weeks here, and I agree with many other reviews: the property is beautiful, peaceful and spacious - as pictured, with large windows (and shades throughout), well-appointed kitchen and laundry, as clean as can be, private and secure. Host is onsite and helpful but not intrusive, and provided a wonderful selection of welcome snacks. Very close to downtown San Rafael. Near the top of a steep hill, but several choices for driving there.

Bill (a.k.a. Bill on the Hill) was a tremendously gracious host as my family and I stayed at his lovely home during a family trip to San Rafael. His preparedness in helping us before our arrival was extremely thoughtful as he has a great video explaining all of the special and unique comforts of his home (indoor and outdoor). This home is so comfortable. It has a super a/c unit, comfortable beds, comfortable furniture, well equipped kitchen, clean and well renovated bathrooms with deluxe digital features, and the private deck with pool and hot-tub were well loved by us all. The smell of fresh jasmine, oleanders, and flowers fill the breeze around the house, and the bird watching is amazing and tranquil around his pond and pool. Bill's home is situated in a great location with grocery stores, shops, and eateries just down the hill. A trip into San Francisco and Pier 39 was an easy 30 min drive across the Golden Gate Bridge. We could have not been made to feel more welcome and comfortable as Bill is an extremely courteous host, he kept in touch if we needed anything or had questions, and was flexible with out check-in/out times. We highly recommend Bill's property - it is a gem! The property is family friendly, super clean, SUPER COMFORTABLE, and you will feel very spoiled - it is a home away from your home! Bill was also great with our kids...my 12yr old and 9yr old loved his kind and fun-loving spirit. If I could rate this beyond the VRBO starts permitted I would!

Exceptional place !! Great location, very charming and sweet home ! The outdoor space and porch is superb. The hosts are very receptive and helpful.

Hosts Mark & Judi are so wonderful! They communicated with us so promptly and offered so many extras for our stay. They’ve thought of everything!

We stayed in this location for 8 nights last week. This is a lovely property in a quiet neighborhood with easy access to main roads/highways, shopping, restaurants and recreation. Sandy was was an amazing host and provided everything we needed. Kitchen, bathrooms and all amenities were well appointed and the most organized we have ever experienced in a VRBO. We were staying with our young adult son and teenage daughter and both were cozy and happy with the comfy living room, GIANT bean bag chair and smart TV. The super cute dogs who live on the property added so much charm to our stay, and the lovely fruit trees on the deck provided gorgeous shade to the outdoor dining area. We will be back!!

We stayed at this cute cottage while we had our hardwood floors installed. Couldn’t have been more perfect since, it’s in my children’s school district. It was clean, quiet and perfect for what we needed. I recommend this rental.
