Delightful stay in Every way!

I have never stayed anywhere like this with such incredible views! Sunbathing on the deck with a view of Mt. Tam was heavenly. The cottage is charming with hand crafted touches. Debra is truly the hostess with the mostest of all my VRBO stays. I enjoyed every bit of my stay and highly recommend it.

Hiker/biker paradise is accurate!

Perfect spot for a working couple to get away for several days. It was just the right distance from town: the cottage is quite literally "above it all" but still just a 1 mile brisk walk to town where there is excellent live music at Sweetwater and the Depot. We had our bikes and Debra was kind enough to bring out a tarp to cover them when it rained. There is even a bike rack! Fast and reliable cable internet. Many other reviews have mentioned the fresh-baked banana bread but it's worth repeating. :^)

Fabulous

Our stay at Debra’s beautiful cottage was so lovely. Everything about the cottage was clearly made with love and care. The view was stunning and we had several hummingbird visits. Debra was very consciencious, clear, responsive, generous, attentive, and flexible with communication and all our needs. The only thing to be aware of is you definitely need a car to drive up the narrow roads to this cottage because it is high up in Mill Valley. Thank you so much for a beautiful experience. May many people enjoy this gem.

Above and beyond

I am over the moon about my stay at this very special property and my wonderful hosts! This cottage, in this stunning and serene location is remarkable, beautiful, comfortable, clean, quiet, and very very hard to leave. In fact thanks to my flexible and generous hosts I was able to extend my stay a little longer than planned. The property and grounds are surrounded by nature, trees, birds, mountains, and sky, and the cottage has everything I could have possibly needed for my 9 day stay. Including a filtered water system, plenty of lovely linens/towels, everything I needed for cooking my meals, and so much sunlight and serenity. And I could walk so much! One of my favorite things to do! Either into town, or into the hills, the woods, anything. And I must note - since I am EXTREMELY particular about sleep/rest comfort - the bed is next level comfortable! Thank you to Debra and William, who I loved getting to know, were so friendly, warm, and engaging, and also gave me all the privacy I could have needed. This trip at this special place fed my soul in every way. I plan to return as soon as possible!

Fantastic Mountain Cottage!

This cottage is beautifully designed and furnished, fully equipped with everything you could need for a short or long term stay, and in a stunning location. The back deck is a real treat. Debra is a wonderful host and my entire stay could not have been nicer.
