This was a lovely property. It’s away from the beach with easy beach and town access. The host couldn’t have been more accommodating. It’s a clean and comfortable property with very nice outdoor space. We had a grand time there.

What a cute place and the location was PERFECT! Walking distance to two trailheads, one block away from amazing food and the beach. Cozy cottage, kitchen was adequately stocked, beds were comfortable. Overall, the perfect place to hang out and enjoy a relaxing weekend. We loved it and we'll be back. Thank you!

Sister trip

We booked this beautiful 2 bedroom for three nights. Lovely place to walk the beach and sit and chat out in the garden. Very quiet. Would love to come back again!

Looking forward to staying here again!

We are locals and this was the perfect getaway to our favorite beach in the area. Easily walkable to restaurants, the beach, and one of our top hikes (Matt Davis). Perfect for a family of 4. It's part of a hub of cottages and I would love to look into booking out a block of them with families/friends. Property interior is super cute and newly renovated. Can't wait to return!

Excellent

I was charmed the moment I entered the property. The entry into the garden was beautiful and the front door into the cottage was exactly as I expected. The beds were comfortable and fresh air from the ocean was delightful. It was quiet and perfect for walking to the beach and restaurants. I could not have been more happy.

good stay

The overall stay was good. convenient location, very close to the beach and town. I wish the can install better and darker curtains. It's too bright in the early morning. The tv in the room with 2 beds did not work. Also, the toaster did not work.

Good location, rooms are fine, nice outdoor spaces, kitchen fine. But you have to replace the chest of drawers in the twin bedroom. They aren’t gonna fix themselves. And they are unusable.A soap dispenser that works would be good, and it would be nice to have cream rinse in the shower.

Excellent location, with wonderful courtyard and well designed amenities. Location is in close in proximity to Muir Woods, Mt Tam and the trails. The cottage was perfect for our trip and served as a great home base for our travels around the area. The owner gave insightful information and reminded us to retain the access information as there is intermittant cell coverage in the area. Our only negative was that we ecountered ants just before we left, and informed the owner.
